Same thoughts as I did, I come from iphone X, if the iphone 13 pro features are worth to buy, ok, if not I will buy iphone 12 pro.

[WeeWeeJumbo]

bought so much tech this year i don't even feel bad that i'm still rockin my Xr

[zachg]

Bought an iPhone 12 Pro last year, going to wait until the notchless iPhone before I replace it

[drummer]

I’ve been holding out for a new iPhone when Apple brings TouchID back. Gonna wait until next year.

I’ve just switched to the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra, I fancied a change. Had iPhones for years. Giving it a good shot till iPhone 13 then I’ll decide whether to keep or sell, 1 feature I love is the Samsung Watch will notify you when your out of range of your phone. This needs to be brought to the Apple Watch.
Didn’t even realise it was a feature until I forgot my phone when going to work, got to my car and it constantly vibrated, looked and said Disconnected from phone! I was so glad as I forget my phone a lot! Well at least I used to, not anymore.

Great advice! As someone coming from an iPhone X I think anything would be an upgrade. But I'll wait for it.

It's time to upgrade my iPhone SE, it's served me well but at this point the battery dies rather quickly.

I have an iPhone XS Max, I think I have waited enough. About to get the iPhone 13 Pro when it comes out.

[PaulaGonzalez-tplj]

I just bought an iPhone 12 Pro Max 🤦🏻‍♀️ because I love the gold color do you think they are gonna keep the same gold color on iPhone 13 ?

I had this dilemma a few weeks ago but went ahead and traded in my 11 Pro since Apple’s trade in credit for that device was really good and I was able to snag a 12 mini at a fair price. My concern was had I waited till the 13 was announced then my 11 Pro would be 2 generations behind, thus worth less in trade. Of course I want to see what the 13 has to offer, but I feel great about my decision since it made the most financial sense for me,

The ibase iphone 11 is good, but it is just too small, to dim for me. And LCD shouldn’t be used anymore

[peterknutsen]

At the very least, wait until you know - with certainty - the features and specs of the 13.

[Notinuse]

Completely agree I’ve been the 512gb iPhone xs max used the 12 pro max but sent it back because of durable issues scratches and that

[MikeyBats]

That seems what the majority do…get a year or two older phone when the new one drops..when I got my 12 on release day last year, for a few months after all the ppl I came across with iPhones had the Xr, 11 or 11 Pro

[leedaq]

won't upgrade my 6s until they add touch ID. NO THANKS to SE2

[ruimpinho]

Who buys an iPhone a month before the new one gets released? 🥴 (unless yours is unusable/broken)

[joanns]

Splashier camera features are of no use to me. Andrew, have you any thoughts about what kind of improvements/features Apple might be considering for iPhone 14? Are better cameras, longer battery life, and sharper images now Apple's only focus?

[CPX]

Sold my 12Pro Max and now I’m using my ancient Nokia N86. Still works great, just battery is bad and no WhatsApp. Waiting for the new iPhone.

[chevysilveradofantech]

You are right that one apple iPhone I was never ever used iPhone in my life

[suaveeze]

Honestly wait to get an iPhone 11pro after release. That thing is a beast, you won't be missing much.
