Other What iPhone do you currently have? Do you plan on keeping it or upgrading?

I have a 6s got it when it first came out, want the iPhone 11 pro with 256GB but won’t pay $1000.00 for one. Will wait for refurb or deep discount.

Apple refurbished iPhones are only discounted 10% or around $100-$140 depending on storage capacity! It not worth waiting 6+ months for them to show up on Apple’s refurbished website!

Of course, you might be tempted at buying non Apple refurbished iPhones with a 30 day warranty for 30%+ off! LOL!

Keeping my phone XS for atleast one more year. It is way to expensive to buy the «pro» here in Norway..
 
I have a 6s Plus, but accidentally dropped it and ran it over on Wednesday evening. Unfortunately that means a new phone, but I’m struggling to decide. In the meantime, it really sucks not to have a working iPhone.

iPhone SE. I am considering getting an iPhone 8, but the price difference up to XR is not much right now so...maybe just keep the SE?
 
Keeping my iPhone 8 does what i need it to do not interested in the newer features would be a waste if the iPhone SE 2 was announced i may go for that depending on what it offers
 
Pulled the trigger and upgraded to an iPhone 11 Pro from the iPhone X. I will pass down the X to my significant other. The camera upgrades were too tempting, and the increased battery life.

Feeling rather tempted by the Pro Max. Camera updates from my X would be nice. And the trade in makes it even more so.... But no. Gotta wait for another year.
 
I was using a day one iPhone 6 until last month. One month short of 5 years!

Now am using a brand new, 2017 iPhone SE and will likely use it until it also stops getting iOS updates.

With the price reduction in the 11, if I needed a phone I would have been glad to get one. Now I'm hoping that the SE is supported in iOS until the AW goes standalone.
 
I have an iPhone 6S, and the battery on it has gotten worse and despite replacing it it seems like it’s time for me to upgrade. I’m almost able to buy a 11 Pro Max, I really want to get some good pictures for my other social media and any type of photography work that I’ll do in the future
 
I have an iPhone 7 Plus in perfect condition. Still works perfectly and is such a solid phone. I was tempted to get the 11 and then the 11 pro but I keep changing my mind on which one to order, or whether to wait until next year. I think if I went to the 11 i’d probably want to upgrade again next year if there’s a new design etc, but if I went for the 11 pro I could keep that for another 3 or 4 years or so but it’s whether to do that or wait until next year
 
Iphone XR (which was already perfect to me) upgrading to Iphone 11. Same RED. Can't wait for the upgrading features!

I have the XS 256 GB, and will keep it probably for five years, anyway. Before the XS, I had the 5, which I had for five years and eight months. I sort of demand getting my value out of these things.

Normally I keep my phone for a long time as well but the iPhone 5 was the worst phone I've ever had. The battery was terrible. I had to charge this phone at least one time during the same day if I used it more than 2 hours. You have my respect if you used this phone for so long.
 
currently, i have an iPhone 7Plus. i've had it since launch. i didn't want to get the previous years phones because I personally dont like the faceID. while i still dont like it, i did jump the ship and join the iphone upgrade program this year. i opted for the iphone 11 base model in product red. i've always wanted the red color. so now i gotta learn how to use this new phone on friday since i've only ever had the iphone 7 Plus and hearing about the new way to access certain things will be annoying. but i love the longer battery life and the faster phone obviously and the wireless charging is a plus while the camera features are the real gold mine for me.

iPhone 8 and probably upgrading. The 2GB of RAM causes too many page/app reloads for me.

To provide an update to this. I initially ordered an iPhone 11 Pro in silver but cancelled and re-ordered gold as I could get the gold for Friday delivery. I’ll be pairing it with the midnight blue leather case. It’ll be my first time without going for the silver or space gray so I’m looking forward to the change. My iPhone 8 will be going to my dad as he could use an upgrade.
 
Well, by looking unemotionally at iP11...
No 5G, no upgrade, no future!
And no other features that worth upgrading from iPX, in my opinion.
Camera features, nothing fancy. Same Pics more or less already possible with iPX and a bit of minimal additional effort. Battery here, no issues... 17:13 and I still have 76%. Never missed UW lens. I miss more tele, but physics kicks in here. Tele wise same/same 52mm with minimal more light f2.0. Nightmode like images can be done with post processing a raw of iPX. On iP11 Apple just post computes, too. Speed bump, nice but nothing that I miss, too. All “relevant“ Games runs fine even on iP6s.
