I have a iPhone 7plus so why can’t it go to ios16.0 instead of 15.8.3


Why? Because it is not compatible with iOS 16 and higher. You'd have to ask Apple for any official reason more detailed than that. But from what I can see in MacTracker, all iPhones that can run iOS 16 or higher have Neural Engines. Your iPhone 7 Plus does not have one. Those first appeared (in rudimentary form) in the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus.


In addition, you now need iOS 17.0 or better to run Netflix.
