In a rather weird way, the new Nikon Z6 II reminds me of one of the favorite vintage bicycles in my collection. It’s not as fast as my racing bike, nor as bombproof as my mountain bike. And it doesn’t accommodate the full range of racks and luggage as the bike I use for loaded touring.

A slight camera upgrade, new emergency features, and... not a whole lot else

Better selfie camera, Good battery life, Crash detection and satellite SOS are neat

It’s more like an iPhone 13S, Display is still 60Hz, eSIM transition will be easy for most but painful for some

It’s a great handset, but the improvements are so iterative that most of you will hardly notice what’s new.

Action mode offers truly superb video stabilization. eSIM makes it easy to switch phones (with other iPhones). Satellite SOS and Crash Detection add peace of mind.

Many of the specs remain the same as on the iPhone 13. Small battery gains. Photonic Engine isn’t as revolutionary as suggested.

Great camera, Good battery, Emergency features are cool, Still excellent performance

Display could use some upgrades
