The release of Apple\u2019s next smartphone is approaching fast.

So, will the next generation iPhone prove popular with fans?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SellCell has surveyed 2000+ US adults who are iPhone owners to find out if they will invest in the forthcoming Apple handset, and ask <em>why  <\/em>they will \/ won&#8217;t upgrade to the 16-series model.

More men (62.1%) than women (47.8%) would like to see a size increase with the next-gen iPhone 16, with a high number of women feeling an even bigger iPhone would be harder to handle and hold.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>An overwhelming majority of people (82.1%) would gladly wait a month or so&nbsp; post-release for the iPhone 16 series\u2019 rumored AI features.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For those who <em>won\u2019t<\/em> be investing in the iPhone 16, most people (34.2%) cite the expense as the reason, closely followed by people who won\u2019t invest as they are keeping their existing phone (34.1%).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Survey Results<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>SellCell asked 2000+ survey respondents a series of questions to gauge iPhone-16 purchase intent.

This is in contrast to 2022\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sellcell.com\/blog\/iphone-user-survey-2022-will-iphones-be-on-this-years-christmas-list\/\">iPhone User Survey<\/a>, which had a fresh look and new colorways as the most important purchase factors. New colors are now the least important factor, with only 13.5% bothered about the hue their phone comes in.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>26.8% of respondents state that the new thermal cooling design will encourage them to buy the 16-series as this will prevent their phone from overheating. This has been a significant issue with previous iPhone models, so a new internal cooling system is something that Apple seriously needs to consider.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Increased AI features are what 21.9% of people are looking for when they decide to purchase the iPhone 16. This could be down to the advanced AI features that are available on various Android handsets, such as those from Samsung and Google.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>21.5% are looking at hardware when making a purchase decision, desiring a faster A-series chip.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Of the two key features iPhone users select as being the most important decision driver, the fifth most important factor is iPhone size. With Apple rumored to launch a larger phone, 19.3% of 2000 iPhone users say the size of the phone will influence their decision. That 19.3% is looking for a bigger device on release.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Perhaps a little jealous of Android devices, 19.0% of respondents stated that they would like to see an action button on the next generation of iPhones. 17.7% would like a new Capture button that offers multiple uses for taking shots. 13.8% see a vertical camera array as being of vital importance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>15.6% want WiFi7 compatibility with the new iPhone 16, showing reliable connectivity is important to lots of iPhone owners.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Q2: The iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max may get bigger displays. Both models are expected to be taller and wider than the iPhone 15 Pro models\u2014the weight will increase slightly due to the larger size.

Generally, though, what do iPhone users think about the launch of a bigger iPhone. Are they excited about it as a standalone feature? With so much talk about what the best iPhone size is, compact or large, what do iPhone users really want?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>The chart above clearly illustrates that most people (54.9%) would like to see a bigger iPhone when the 16-series launches.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>33.0% said that the iPhone is already too big, so they won\u2019t buy a 16-series if it is bigger than the 15-series equivalent.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>12.1% are may wait it out for a smaller phone, like the iPhone SE4, to come along.

An almost equal 34.1% of people said they are keeping their existing phone. This is of little surprise in the wake of a global financial crisis. People simply have less spare cash. The top result here also corroborates the results of question 1, where the cost of the phone is the deciding factor in whether people will invest in a 16-series device.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>12.8% of people are still locked into a contract and, as such, they won\u2019t be upgrading until their contract expires.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The similarity between a new gen and current gen handset\u2019s features and specs is a turnoff for 5.5% of people who won\u2019t buy an iPhone 16.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>5.1% of people will save even more cash and opt for buying an older handset.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>5.0% of respondents are holding out for a new compact iPhone like the SE4.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The iPhone 17 is where 3.3% of respondents have set their sights, deciding to skip the 16-series and wait a year.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A very lowly 0.1% won\u2019t buy the iPhone 16 because they are switching to a different brand altogether.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Will the 16-Series Be a Success for Apple?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Judging from the survey data, the iPhone 16 looks set to be a very successful handset indeed. With almost 62% of current iPhone owners seeking to upgrade in September, Apple is almost on par with its previous efforts; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sellcell.com\/blog\/iphone-15-usb-c-charging-survey\/\">66% of people were looking to upgrade to the iPhone 15 in 2023<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apple\u2019s new devices are always popular, but the purchase intent the way it is looking now, despite only having rumors to go off, we may even see a higher upgrade rate once Apple launches the new device and people have seen it for themselves.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It seems that value for money and affordability\/price positioning are key influencers for fans who may upgrade and equally for those who will not upgrade. Although not something that will necessarily prevent users from upgrading, phone size could be a key factor in people\u2019s decision, particularly amongst women, who may not see an even bigger rumored phone as something that they want to buy because of usability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With <a href=\"https:\/\/www.macrumors.com\/2024\/08\/13\/iphone-se-4-8gb-ram-apple-intelligence\/\">MacRumors stating that the iPhone SE4 could launch soon<\/a>, will iPhone fans hold off while they await a potentially smaller, less expensive handset? Only time will tell!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Methodology<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>SellCell surveyed 2000+ US iPhone owners to understand their purchase intention for Apple\u2019s iPhone 16 upgrade intent, as well as gauging opinion on iPhone 16 desired features, alongside the reasons why people will upgrade or not.
