I got the 12Pro in polished gold, which matches my AW Series 5 in SS, polished gold. will hang on to them as long as possible. Love the finishes and looks. Features are fine for what I need.
looks like the logic is a little off for this graph. I'm still paying off my iPhone 12 Pro, for another 10 months! I'm very board with iPhone styling, the need to spice it up
I just realized that I voted yes when in fact, it should’ve been no, so I changed it. I did also vote for the 14 Pro Max that I’ll be upgrading to.
For me the more relevant question is whether I upgrade my iPhone7 TO an iPhone12mini. I’ve been very successful to date postponing this but the time may well be nigh after the 12 is discounted a bit further post the 14 announcement.
i have a charging cable everywhere now. work, bedside, living room, car.... cant last a day anymore without charging. sad for a less than 2 year old phone.
I have a 12 and have honestly been missing my telephoto zoom camera since the day I traded in my XS. I also want a larger screen so I will be upgrading to the 14 Pro Max right away
I've got a regular iPhone 12 and I'm hoping to upgrade to the iPhone 14 Pro. A possible dealbreaker is a price increase. I'm from the Eurozone and exchange rates have already deteriorated compared to last year.
iPad Air 5 is already considerably more expensive than iPad Air 4 was at launch. The new MacBook Air has obviously seen a price increase in $, but it's even worse in Euro's: M1 Air went for around €950. M2 Air for over €1500.
If similar things happen to the €-iPhone price, I'll not upgrade at all or perhaps even look for friendlier priced Android alternatives.

I haven’t had an issue and my 12 Pro Max is a launch day device.
I do this myself. I still enjoy the excitement of ordering and waiting for it to show the following Friday (if everything works out with supply/launch) 😂I upgrade every single year. It has become a tradition and a custom. Without any hesitation, I will be upgrading to the latest and the greatest
I could survive on my current device, but why…? 😋

100% Agree. Life is too short. Money comes, money goes. Time doesn't! Hoping to see you join the pre-ordering train for the iPhone 14 🤝
I am still on my iPhone 12 Pro. Usually upgrading every year, but I skipped the iPhone 13. I just didn't feel like buying it. I planned to order der iPhone 14 upon release, but two weeks ago I accidentally dropped my iPhone 12 Pro and the phone speaker was broken. Since it was still under AppleCare+, Apple switched it out for a brand new one for a fee of 99 Euros. Thus I am sitting on a brand new iPhone 12 Pro, which is actually running great. Unless something really groundbreaking is implemented into the iPhone 14, I might hold on to my 12 for another year and see what the iPhone 15 brings.
I am so excited for 9/7. I am beyond ready to upgrade this iPhone.
I am currently using two iPhone 13 pro max phones. One from launch day (1TB sierra blue) and a Alpine green 512gb that is three months old. I had the graphite at first and when the Alpine green was announced, I paid to upgrade early (AT&T) so I could get the new color. If I like what the iPhone 14 offers with its new camera, I will pay off my sierra blue iPhone and upgrade to the 14 on that line. When a new iPhone is announced, I always make my decision to upgrade based on the camera only. That’s really all I care about since I’m a photographer. All of the apps on any new iPhone still look and work the same so I never upgrade because of that, just the cameras.
I'm still happy with my 12 Mini and don't see anything from the 14 that'll inspire me to upgrade, especially since I won't be able to keep the form factor. But the thunderbolt port on my wife's 12 is starting to get intermittent, so I'm thinking we'll have to get her a 14 before too long (hopefully the port holds out juuuuust a bit longer!). Might look at what it costs to repair, but I'll bet we just pull the trigger on a new phone.
The 12 should support wireless charging. Why not use that? Your talking about the lightning port right? No thunder bolt port on an iPhone.
You're right, I meant the lightning port. Dunno what I was thinking! But yeah wireless works, but she uses the lightning port to plug the phone into the car for CarPlay, and so on too.
