Can we go back to written articles? I cant always sit and watch videos or listen to podcasts.
I can always read, though.

I won’t upgrade mine, Xs Max, as long as it is qualified to upgrade to the latest iOS releases. It still works fine, I only care about the OS.
Agreed. I’m still using an iPhone 8. It makes calls😂
While not a really lengthy opinion article it does have a few points about how the new features are getting more incremental then breakthrough's.

The iPhone 15 Pro Max is the best phone ever. Yawn.
Apple has made the greatest iPhone ever, so why isn't anyone impressed anymore?

I was planning to purchase Airpods pro gen2 . The price is reasonable and I prepare the money
Wait until Black Friday and get the gift card
Is it just my (aging) eyes, but does my iPhone XS Max have more real estate than the iPhone 15 Pro Max? I had them side-by-side today at the Apple Store.
But it has a clickbait caption and then goes onto praising Apple, lol.While not a really lengthy opinion article it does have a few points about how the new features are getting more incremental then breakthrough's.

I think the iPhone 16 would be something to look forward to with in-screen face-id and perhaps the notch disappearing almost completely.
Respect. I also hold on to my devices as long as possible; use them till they break as I say.
Bravo! However, when you have to look, at how you can "upgrade" for free.
That is the situation I am in, I didn't pay for my 12...T-Mobile did (similar deals with AT&T and Verizon) and better yet, no longer limited to new customers they steal from competitors, but now offered to their existing customers. But there is a trap - I don't know where the cutoff is but your iPhone 7 is too old for full credit to cover the cost of the phone, and that is the situation I am in...how long do I hold the 12 before full credit for a free new phone erodes away. When I upgraded the 6s for the twelve, T-Mobile only assigned a $349 trade in credit, so I went on Ebay and for $100 got a refub 8 that generated the full $799 tradein credit fully covering the cost of the 12 with monthly credits each billing cycle. Independently sold the 6s to Gazelle for $60, recouping most of what I paid on Ebay. Also at that time it was limited to new customers, so AT&T paid me $250 for "Bring your own phone" and after 45 or 90 days (I forget the details) was considered new customer at T-Mobile, so I returned and was eligible for the free iphone...also keeping the $250 as AT&T didn't have strings attached like Verizon. Thankfully it is now extended to current customers so don't have to go through that exercise. I just need to upgrade, not because I need the phone...but to stay in sequence of them fully buying the phone for me. If I elected to go to the higher priced Pro model, I would have to pay the difference, but could probably repeat the Ebay experience with a Pro level refurb to trade in where they would cover it, then independently sell the 12. Also, I became eligible for the upgrade last April but held off on a 14 upgrade knowing the 15 was coming out.

You might notice some differences 😊well as am still using a iPhone 6 I think its time for a upgrade for me
I love the new Action button on the iPhone 15 Pro/Pro Max. I programmed mine to be a POWER OFF button using Shortcuts and it is great to have an easier way to turn my phone off than that janky Apple solution. I may turn it back to Camera, at some point. I wish Apple would allow for multiple options (single push, double push, etc.) as that would make it even more convenient.
