Dynamic Island, USB-C and camera enhancements make me glad this is my upgrade year (I have a 12). I will probably grab the base Pro model for $200 more due to even better camera though, but I would be pretty happy with the 15 regular as well. I stopped with the big phones a few years ago... the battery bump is nice, but my phone goes everywhere and I prefer the regular size in my hand and pocket.
- jonplackett 3y agoI'm keeping my 12 Pro Max another year. It takes great photos. I never use the port. Dynamic Island is an Emperor's new clothes marketing scam where they've just moved the bezel even more in the way than it was and managed to convince people it's a good thing.
- mint2 3y agoI don’t quite get all the comments that are expressing disappointment- I think the camera and particularly the zoom is a great upgrade versus my 12 pro, and there’s a bunch of other nice to haves. I’ll probably upgrade next year though not this one. Expecting major improvements and new features every year is odd to me. These incremental gains add up over the 3-4 years that I feel is a reasonable minimum phone life.

- mint2 3y agoDo people expect Apple to proclaim “our new version has incremental upgrades, only buy if your phone is a couple years out of date”? Product launches are always a lot of theatrics regardless of the company. I don’t think anyone actually takes them any more seriously than a mcdonalds ad implying eating their hamburger will make one more like the cool sports star being paid a million to hold the hamburger.
