Considering an upgrade
Screen diagonals are 5.8″ and 6.3″. iPhone 16 Pro has the larger display, useful when space for spreadsheets, documents or multiple windows matters. This comparison covers the stated sizes; a different chassis size may change the conclusion.
Display refresh rates reach 60 and 120 Hz. iPhone 16 Pro supports the higher rate, relevant to scrolling and animations; it does not by itself guarantee that frame rate in games.
iPhone 11 Pro weighs 188 g and iPhone 16 Pro weighs 199 g. The 11 g difference is small and is unlikely to be a decisive upgrade reason on its own.
Specified maximum SDR brightness is 800 and 1000 nits, higher on iPhone 16 Pro. Consider this in bright ambient light. HDR brightness is a separate specification.
