That seems like either I’m 100% satisfied with my iPhone 13 Pro Max, and I have reached my peak cell phone feature set, or the iPhone 15 just is not very enticing of a purchase, especially considering the considerable cost.

    The only thing I was hoping for in the 15 was a mini model. I’m on a 14 pro now but I still miss the size of my 12 mini

      Why would you need usb 3 for charging, there are better ways to data transfer on it

        Just did a reinstall in my 13 mini through Wi-Fi iCloud backup I have gigabit internet it was still slower than I would like.

        A usb3 connection would’ve been great.

        I also like to use wired connection to use Lightroom on the go with my camera RAWs I ended up not using it cause usb2 is too slow. My camera doesn’t transfer raw through Wi-Fi

    It’s a step in the right direction but they’re a long way off convincing me to try again.

    I really like that the pro models are allowing “special video” now. I’d want that, except by the time I can actually afford a “pro” iPhone, that feature might be built into the non-pro models.

    I’m upgrading, but mostly because I’ve got an 11 and the battery is starting to go. It also doesn’t have 5G, and a USB-C connection will be nice. I’m looking at the larger one, because I have big hands, so I like bigger phones.

      If you have any interest in holding out another year or two a battery replacement would be much cheaper. If you’re looking forward to the upgrade then enjoy the new phone!

        I also want a bigger screen. I play some Japanese mobile games that use the tiniest damn fonts that you can’t make larger, and I’m tired of squinting at itty bitty kanji.

        Plus, to replace the battery, they’d have to also replace the back because the one time I had my phone out of its case to get my train pass to add money to it, and I dropped it and the glass back shattered.

      I think a lot of people misread my intentions on this post lol

      I’d love to upgrade, but I think my phone is great still. Battery still lasts more than a day. I also like bigger phones, I use my phone like a PC, a lot of reading, writing and watching videos and stuff.

      Bigger = better imo (at least for my use case)

    I only charge my phone via MagSafe… and the roadside emergency feature is coming to iPhone 14 as well, so I will probably sit out this upgrade cycle.

    Honestly, this refresh was so unimpressive I’m surprised they bothered to have an event at all.

    Really? I seriously dont understand people . why the fuck would you upgrade? For USB c ? If its performance then we peaked it at iPhone 11 after that everything seems to be the same to me.
