Lidar is available only on Pro and Pro Max iPhones. It was introduced 4 years ago, with the iPhone 12 Pro and Pro Max models.

I'm in the same boat as Donna, and I actually have a slightly more basic question: What actually could a blind person use LIDAR for? I've tried to look for some specifics but not coming up with anything.

First of all, the size difference between the iPhone 16 and the 16 Pro is negligible, and you won’t notice the difference unless you put one up along side the other, so I wouldn’t give that any consideration. Secondly, as for Lidar, that depends on you, and how you plan to use your device. If you are interested in using apps that take advantage of Lidar, then you should consider the Pro model. If using these apps is not important to you, than go with the non-Pro iPhone, This is a choice only you can make for yourself. - Brad - On Sep 28, 2024, at 10:50, 'Donna Goodin' via MacVisionaries <macvisionaries@googlegroups.com> wrote: Hi all, So, just tossing this out there for discussion. I’m about to upgrade to the iPhone 16, and am trying to decide whether I really need the Pro. I’m very attracted to the smaller size of the iPhone 16, and I’m wondering how much Lidar really matters? Thoughts anyone? Cheers, Donna -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
