Summer can be an awkward time to buy a new iPhone. Apple will release a new iPhone in the fall,...
iPhone 15 looks to be a pretty great update, at least for the Pro. Personally I have been holding out for a USB C iPhone so I was going to upgrade whenever that happened but there are some other things that look good as well.
I have an iphone 12 mini and hope to upgrade to a 15 Pro this year.
What I'm looking forward to:
Better battery life. The 12 mini's battery isn't that great and the 1st gen 5G chips were quickly improved upon.
USB C. Means all my chargeable devices would be on a single cable.
The upgraded camera that was introduced in the 14.
The A17 SoC in the 15 is expected to be the first major upgrade in a while. The SoC in the 14 was held back by TSMC's N3 being delayed, and the SoC in the 13 was a decent but not great upgrade.
None of those particularly apply to you. I was on android before my 12 mini and what I like most about the change is: the interface is snappier, most apps are built for ios first and android second and generally that means you can rely on having a working version of the app. Also the biggest reason for me to make the switch: Apple supports their phones for 5+ years will full updates, not just security. I think android has seen improvement on that front since I switched, but still isn't at the same level of software support.
Periscope camera for higher zoom, moving to titanium instead of stainless steel metal will save weight, and the mute switch is supposed to become a button that might be customizable to control more than just silence which would be nice since I only ever keep mute switch on silence.
If the rumors, that this feature is Pro Max exclusive, are true, I‘ll be so mad. Imagine paying likely over 1000 USD for a regular Pro and only getting the second best.
Yeah you are definitely going to be mad. Sounds like the 16 Pros will be increasing in size and that will allow the regular 16 Pro to get the periscope.
