11 Pro Max to 15 Pro Max.
To be honest, I don’t really feel the need to either. The battery is still fine after 4 years at only 84% health and it’s still fast.
The main upgrades will be the cumulative nice stuff they added in the last 4 years and the camera tech. And most importantly, the 8gb of ram.

I never once ran out of power on my 14 Pro Max, but I still miss the battery life of the 13 Pro Max. I hope the A17 Pro can get it back to what it was before. I think the 13 Pro Max is up with the 4 and the X as my favorite models of all time.
From graphite 12 pro to, umm, don't know! Can't make up my mind.
I think I might be waiting until I can get my hands on them in a shop. Very tempted by 15 Pro Max.
Adding a bit more:
At one point I was using a work 6 Plus - and I very much appreciated the screen size. But just too big and uncomfortable in trouser pocket.
Nowadays, different circumstances and I find myself wearing some sort of bodywarmer most of the time. Either a light one in warmer weather or a better insulated one in cool/cold weather. And prefer to carry my phone in an internal pocket. Where is is better protected and simply won't fall out under any circumstances.
Adding:
My battery is at 84%. Which I find somewhat disappointing.

I got rid of my 16GB (6s, IIRC) after quite a few years because it was running out of usability.
Tip my hat to you lasting another three years.
Same here, it's been 5 years, so it's time.
11 to 15 Pro
The 11 is fine really - but the cumulative updates, the cameras (always wanted the telephoto lens), plus the age of the 11, have finally convinced me.
That and the price and dimensions - the 15 Pro is slightly shorter in depth and height, and very slightly lighter - which is a plus for me as it sits in my pocket nearly all day. Once had to get a 6 and that was a big, heavy phone - never got on with it.

I would go with the ProMax, if the 120mm were either a 48MP sensor or an additional lens, but as it stands the jump from 24mm to 120mm is too great and image quality is going to suffer because of all the cropping. I think I will prefer much better 77mm photos.
14 pro max to 15 pro. Upgrading yearly since 2008!
I have found the pro size to be a good, usable carry size, unlike the luggage size.

I go back and forth through the years but overall I tend to prefer the smaller size
14 Pro to pink 15. I just want something lighter. This thing is a total brick. And I don’t really use the pro features. I’ll miss 120hz though!
So many of you coming from the 6S. That model number still strikes fear in my heart. I had major battery problems with that one.
So do I, that's why I havn't pre ordered not seeing much diff, I could be wrong, apple trying to upsell us to the max with better camera lol
13 Pro to 15 Pro Max. I regretted not getting the 11 Pro Max when I got my 11 Pro, then did the same thing with the 13 Pro and didn’t get the 13 Pro Max. Really excited to get a Max sized phone. May love it, may hate it over time, but I’m excited to give it shot.
Significantly better OLED vs LCD display, and a noticeable difference in speed, cameras. You will both get get dynamic island, but you will get action button, ProMotion (120hz refresh display), Always on Display. From a standard iPhone 11 to a 15 or 15 Pro is a big jump.

I feel exactly the same way. I pre-ordered the 15PM on launch day but today cancelled the order.
I think we're at a point where you can go either way but I decided to wait another cycle. Honestly the 11PM is still such a great phone. Let's see if that still holds true after the iOS 17 update.
