I don’t know why people expect massive jumps every single year. There’s only so much you can really change year over year at this point.

You don’t need to upgrade every damn year. Apple supports each phone for a minimum of 5-6 years.

Yeah, I'm sure if you just upgrade every 3-4 years there's plenty that's been added that makes it worthwhile.

I’m 85% sure I’m going to get the 15. I’m upgrading from my XR so hopefully it’ll be pretty major for me.

Agree 3-4 cycle makes it feel amazing.

Also on an XR and just bought a 15 Pro.

The XR is still snappy. The battery only is at 80% of its original life, but otherwise it’s fine.

I’m very excited for the USB-C and wifi 6E. The rest I don’t care about, but I imagine I will be impressed by the speed when I get it.

I’m at 85% battery

I’m mostly excited about better battery, usb-c, and 5g cellular. Mag charging is interesting but I already have qi chargers all over the place.
