The iPhone 16 series is available now, including the big and powerful iPhone 16 Plus. While you're choosing exactly what color you want for your shiny new phone, you should also look into a case to protect it from those times when you have butterfingers.

There are some great folding phones that try to give you the best of both worlds, but these are pricy options and often make compromises you're unwilling to live with. If you're looking for a larger canvas for reading, sketching, gaming, or just about anything else, you're likely much better off going with a tablet.
