    People are shopping for phones now like subprime borrowers shop for cars. “I don’t care. What’s the monthly payment?”

    I might upgrade my 12 just because of the USB-C connection.

    Anyone here considering getting the iPhone 15 pro max later this year? Is the potential price increase making you reconsider?

      I’ve never found a reason to buy a phone that large. I’m probably going to get the 15 Pro though since I need an upgrade.

      I’ve been loving the size of my 11/13/14 Pros the last few years and if USB-C is a reality I’ll definitely be getting a 15 pro. But if the rumors are true about only the 15 pro max having the new periscope camera, I will be tempted to jump up to the larger phone for that.

        Curious, what’s the benefit to upgrading that quickly? iPhones can last a lot longer than a year, and what are you doing with the old ones?

          Almost zero benefit. I finally started to just use the Apple Upgrade Program and effectively look at the phone as a rental. We get a credit from work to use a device as BYOD so it ultimately is nice to simply have a new phone all the time.

      I love my 13 Pro Max and if the 15 Pro Max has USB-C like all the rumors indicate then it’s a day one buy for me.

        Why? Androids are cheaper for the same phone.

            Uh lol. This shit is on All because Lemmy is about this big 🤏.

            Apple phones are slightly worse hardware for more money. Here’s the a comparison:

              Thanks for enlightening the apple_enthusiast forum. We can go ahead and shut it down now. 👍

              Except that from a soc standpoint android phones are just so much slower than iPhones it’s really not even comparable

      I am. I really wish the nicer camera came in the smaller phone, but I’m a sucker for a good camera.

      I’m probably going to go with a 15 Pro. I’ve got a max now and while the screen and battery are great it may be a bit bigger than I need.

    So no real news then, just the same thing that’s happened every year for the past decade or so?

      Pro Max prices have been static since their introduction with the 11: $1100 for the base model. Pro models have also been static at $1000, although this article only mentions Pro Max price increases.
