it’s from Brandon Butch’s iOS 26 collection but if someone can send me a drive link with it that would be greatly appreciated lol

So about a week ago I made the jump from my iPhone 13 Pro Max to the iPhone 16 Pro Max, and honestly I have some mixed feelings. Starting with the good, the display is a massive upgrade, night and day compared to the 13 PM. And the cameras? Absolutely love them, no complaints there whatsoever. Now the bad, and really it’s just one thing: battery life. I got the phone at 319 cycles with 95% battery health and it’s still sitting at 95%, so on paper it looks fine. But in actual day to day use it just feels off. I’m not sure if it’s iOS 26 being a mess (running 26.4.2 btw) or if the 16 PM battery just genuinely isn’t that impressive, probably a mix of both honestly. Curious if anyone else has noticed the same thing, because it might just be a me problem. I can drop the battery usage screen in the comments if it helps. Outside of that though, everything else is great. Ignore the battery situation and this is easily an 8/10 upgrade for me.
