I have the 11 Pro Max. Very happy with it and want to get off the Upgrade Programme too, so not getting an iPhone this year.
i have a 8 plus and just recently brought a unlocked iPhone 11 pro max just as a backup if something happens to my 8 plus
Just got my 11 Pro Max 512GB in January 2020 so no I normally Skip the S line of iPhones . Curious if it really is a iPhone 12 or is it going to be iPhone 11 s / 11 s Pro Max
If they really have a small SE I plan to get that for my wife, I just got an iPhone 11 Pro last year and like to skip years between phones... however if they have a LIDAR in this years Pro, I may have to go for that as I would really like to play with some abilities that enables.
Have an iPhone X 64GB. Battery health just reached service state it looks like, it had been at 82% for a while, is at 81% when I just looked at it now. However my phone is usually on a wireless charger now a days so it doesn’t matter. And besides some random things, is still fast enough. It’s weird having the oldest phone in my family lol.
I did want to upgrade this year, but our budget has ended up tighter than expected and my wife, who’s Fitbit broke and is using my Series 0 Apple Watch (I have a Series 3), I plan to upgrade to a Series 6 this year for her birthday.
So I’ll probably take one for the team and wait until next year unless something happens to my phone (hopefully nothing will).

I'm still running 6s Plus and honestly will likely continue to do so until next year's model. I replaced the battery with one from iFixIt a few months ago, it runs pretty good with iOS 14 Beta 6 and will be supported this one last year.
Now next year, when this phone drops off the supported OS list (and assuming some other fate doesn't dispatch it sooner), I will be upgrading then.
Of course, the wife has a 2016 SE and my daily iPad is an iPad Air 2, so I anticipate next year will be very expensive for me.

I have an XS Max 256 GB. It really just depends on what’s new with the iPhone 12. I’m not sure if 5G alone will convince me to upgrade. The 11 Pro was the first time since I got my first iPhone (4) that I did not upgrade (and I’m part of the iPhone upgrade program). I just finished my last payment for the XS Max so I’m not sure. These phones are just too expensive these days, especially when you consider that we don’t get discounts from carriers anymore (we use to get a $400-450 off with a 2 year contract).
Given I still think all phones bigger than the 5S are like buying a Humvee over a Ford Focus I’ll be sticking with my SE for another year.
- I always get a case not so much for protection but for grippiness and hiding the logo.
- I use the phone as much for its camera as its data capabilities - So a better camera is always persuasive.
- 5G is persuasive.
- More health features is persuasive.
- Bigger is better for my old eyes
No I'm waiting until 2024, here me out. This is what I want in my next iPhone 120hz display, no bezel/notch, no ports like Apple has rumored and5g. It has to have all those things working and in well condition for me to buy it and 2024 is the year it is rumored to have it all if Apple stays on track with that the leaks suggest. This year was a smaller notch witch isn't happening and was suposted to be no ports on the maxed out model buy may not happen until next year. So I hope 2024 has all the features I require in order to upgrade if not ill upgrade when the is can't update anymore to the next number.
I probably will, but I'm not upgrading to iOS 14 or iPadOS 14... *worst iOS versions ever released IMO.
I hope they have the same pearl/matte glass finish for the iPhone 12, I would FOR SURE buy it if it had the 11 Pro look but the design of the iPad Pro... then, I'd buy one.

Better download the installer now... I’m sure it will ship with iOS 14.I probably will, but I'm not upgrading to iOS 14 or iPadOS 14... *worst iOS versions ever released IMO.

I’ll be waiting! Unless I win the lottery. My mother is on my plan. She needed a new phone desperately so I used the only available upgrade to get her an 11. Currently on an 11 Pro so I’m not sure id upgrade even if I had one.
Not upgrading from my iPhone X yet. Drooling over the Surface Duo, hope Apple makes a proper rival soon
Had Apple replace the battery on my iPhone X two weeks ago, I am upgrading to the 12 Pro Max.
