Now that it has been a couple of weeks that you got 15PM, do you think the upgrade was worth it? Or did you have some regrets and hoped you have waited for future upgrades?

My 12 PM is totally fine, except the space and slowly dying battery. I want to upgrade for those 2 reasons and of course camera for travel/concerts. But I am still in the fence if it is really that big of an upgrade esp if I think I can still squeeze another year. Gotta admit though, I am itching for a new phone, I used to upgrade yearly or every 2 years(had iPhone since 3G).

MANY THANKS!
 
The consensus is:
Some will say yes and others will say no. There’s no consensus.
Buy one and try it out for 2 weeks. If it’s not what you hoped for, return it before the 14th day.

In my country, no such thing sadly. They offer exchange but no returns. No yearly trade-ins even, so have to be very sure.
 
For me...
If my current iPhone is too aggravating to use (too slow or can’t run the software I want — it’s time for a newer iPhone.
The iPhone 12 doesn’t fall into that description, so for me personally, I wouldn’t buy a newer one.
But everyone is different. Some people get a new iPhone every 2 years on principle- and some, every year.
Other’s wait longer.
I think if anyone is indecisive about whether to buy a newer iPhone or not, they don’t really need it.
You’ll know it’s time to upgrade when the time is right.
