- throw51319 6y agoSame. They are kings of curating their marketing timeline to extract every single dollar out of you.
- freehunter 6y agoHow so? They release new phones every autumn, with few exceptions. So if you buy an iPhone in the autumn and it’s not the brand new just-announced model, you should expect that you’re going to have a previous-generation phone very quickly. Apple’s marketing timeline is remarkably consistent with very few exceptions.
- throw51319 6y agoThey release the SE (2020) in April. So they hit that smaller but latest phone market, and then they are tapping in again only 6 months later with the 12 mini. A lot of people with the SE (2020) will want to upgrade for the speed, camera, even smaller body etc.
- Game_Ender 6y agoThe camera was not in fact a direct upgrade, it was the same hardware with improved software post processing. That was the deciding factor for not getting an SE for me, and to wait for this cycle.
- dylan604 6y agoWhy? It's been leaked for ages that the iPhone announcement were coming this month. I'm only asking because you added Damn as if you were disappointed in your timing. I've been holding off waiting to see if the 12 was going to be something I'd be interested in, or just waiting for the 11 series prices to drop. My 6S+ works fine, but the capacity is too small.
- ajmurmann 6y agoWhat is it about the iPhone Mini that is selling you most? I only now learned that the SE had touch ID and am now contemplating buying that instead of the mini. I was ready to drop $1500 if their had been a mini-sized iPhone with all the pro features and touch ID, but now I find every option frustrating.
