So reading through my news stories today I keep seeing stories show up about the leaked iPhone 11 images. I hope this is not true because I think the design is ugly and not “Apple Like”. If you haven’t read the articles or seen the pictures, check out the link below. Do you share the same thoughts as me or do you like this rumored design? Will you be upgrading?

I really like the design.

Reminds me of this.

I think the camera box looks weird. Not sure what illm do yet since I'm not basing my decision off mock ups and leaks.
 
I’ve already mentioned it many times, I don’t care what the back of my iPhone looks like, I don’t see the back my iPhone, it’s a tool. As long as the camera quality with the ‘triple lens’ can deliver promising results, then that would pique my interest to want to upgrade.

i won't upgrade even though i am on an iPhone 6s.
i will wait until March 2020 when the rumored replacement for iPhone 8 comes out.

I’m not buying as I am totally concerned what the back of the device looks like - the part that I see the least often...

I think some great changes are going to be introduced in the iphone 11/Xi. The thing is, if apple is back on the "s" model cycle, the "s" model will be a worthy update. Not updating 3 years in a row. 2 out of 3 years maybe...

The 6s does take great photos in the right light. And even some great low light photos if the conditions are right. However the max/xs blows the 6s out of the water in general in that area.

My issue with the current crop of phones is
1. Notch (for some reason it bugs me to no end)
2. Poor cellular connectivity with weak signals
3. PWM flickering of their OLED displays (eyestrain)
4. Lower resolution of the XR LCD display (eyestrain)

Until that mess is taken care of, I'll be using my old Plus iPhone until it stops working- then get another used one.
I fear I may have a loooong wait.
 
I always used to defend the Intel modem chip's performance. That changed last weekend, when my wife and I were visiting a friend at a hospital. My iPhone X (the GSM model) had no service, while my wife's Galaxy S9 (equipped with a Qualcomm modem) had a decent LTE connection. If this year's iPhones ship with Intel modems, I will probably wait until the 2020 model.
 
My iPhone 8+ is only 1.5 years old. I plan to use it for roughly 3 years total and then at that point decide on an upgrade. Currently there is nothing compelling enough to make me want to upgrade early. The leaked photos don't look like much of a change from the current X line, except for the upgraded cameras.
