Other What's Your iPhone History? List Them In Here...

I only included my iPhone history earlier, but here’s my complete history.

Samsung (model unknown, purchased 2003, very basic model)
Motorola Razr
Blackberry Bold 9000
Samsung Galaxy S5

2 iPhones to date.
6+
XR

Part of the reason for my late adoption of iPhones is that my carrier didn’t support them until roughly the time that the 6+ was released.

4s, 6, 6s, 8, and 11. Other phones were in between those. I am getting bored with my iphones now. My last 4 phones have been iPhones and the iOS layout is very stale and boring. Time to change it up.
 
6+ (2 years)
7+ (2 years)
Xs Max (1.5 years, didnt like the design, narrow display and notch
Then moved back to 8+ since 1 yr now.
To Me 8+ is the best iphone i ever used.

Before my first iPhone I had a Windows phone that had a great battery that would last about 6 hours and before you got the low battery warning, would shut off it's cell radio to save battery without telling you or re-enabling when it was plugged in.
After missing dozens of phone calls and texts I took the plunge to iPhone and haven't looked back since.

Jesus Christ half the comments here make it sound like an iPhone buyers anonymous meeting.

You people know they don't blow up after 12 months use right?

What’s it really matter? If a person has interest in phones, and the money to blow, then why hold onto a phone when an improved version drops? Even if they are minimal improvements? I’m sure there are many of us on here who have a rooted interest in phones and money to burn.

Pretty happy with my 11 but Touch ID under the glass might force me to upgrade, not a fan of Face ID at all.
