Apple

I went from 12 normal to 15 pro max and i’ve found it to be great. no, it’s not life changing. everything is faster, face ID is much faster (huge for me lol) and I appreciate the extra screen real estate.

The 11 Normal to 12 Pro was a huge difference for me. I think you made a mistake.

I’ll tell you one thing that keyboard on the iPhone 15 pro max is super laggy. Especially the delete button! Apple won’t address it.

I upgraded from 7 plus to a 14 plus last year, definitely a big improvement in every aspect. My 7 was a great phone, lasted me 7 years. Never cracked the screen though it was dropped many times. Wasn’t slow and the battery didn’t get bad until a few months before I traded it in. But my 14 plus is exactly what I wanted. Camera is way better, battery lasts forever and has all of the new features like Apple Pay.

Tbh the 15 pro looks inferior to the 14 pro. It looks thinner & cheaper. Hell I’ve seen posts of people CHIPPING the corners when dropped, due to the titanium. I was a bit disappointed tho when I first got the 14 pro because of how identical it looks to the 13 pro but I learned to like it for the battery

I went from iPhone SE 2020 to iPhone 14 pro last year and could not feel the difference until I switched back to SE 2020 and was 'Damn, was it always that bad?'

I took the same photo on my 11 and 15th and unless you zoomed in, you couldn’t really see the difference.

This would be a benefit and I would be happy if I believed you. Unfortunately I don't. Ever since the 12 they've ABSURDLY ramped up the post-processing in the photos. There's no way the 11 looks like the 15 Pro.

Take a photo with the subject against a bright background. I bet the 15 Pro "smart HDR" makes the subject look like a sticker on top of the photo.

I went from the 7S to the 11 Pro to the 14 Pro Max. And honestly it’s the same exact phone just a little bigger. I don’t do anything differently now than when I had my 7s.

They are functionally the same.

I upgraded from an XR to a 14 Pro and i felt the same. I was expecting a massive upgrade and i was disappointed. No new phone until 2030

Anything passed the X has been samey

I went from an 8 to a 12 mini, that was a decent leap for me, I will definitely give it another year

I went from the second gen SE (basically a 5S) to a 12. That was worth double the price

I'm surprised you didn't notice the high refresh rate (ProMotion). That's probably the biggest thing my 14 Pro offered me over my XR

I went from 7 to 11 pro max, left that on the roof of my car and drove off. Replaced it with 12 pro max. Waited til usbc came to iPhone, and upgraded to 15 pro max. The upgrade between each is astonishing to me every time.

The smallest incremental difference being 11 pro to 12 pro. Just slightly larger cameras and square edges.

When i went from a 4S to a Xs Max i felt everything. But from Xs Max to 14 pro. Nothing but just a phone with a bit better camera and nothing else. Maybe the 120hz screen

Apple is really not doing much for iphones lately

i felt a difference from SE (1st gen) to 11 but when i played around with the 15 at the store, it was only a bit faster

Upgraded from I8 to I13-mini, the form factor is roughly the same, miss the 3D Touch, but overall, it feels good
-I used to Miss the square angles of the 4S on the 8, and it feels like a throwback, but not in bad terms.
- Photos are obviously better, though i think the large angle optic is a bit pixelated.
- Of course the smoother UX, thanks to a better chip.
- Face ID is great, even though back then i thought yeah nah fck this shit, but i kind of miss Touch ID too
- 2 days autonomy on the battery, speaks for itself

Got a 14 pro from an 11 pro because it was glitching. I do not feel a difference. Also iOS 17 is kinda glitchy.

I went from 11 Pro to 15 Pro. If anything, the experience has been a bit of a downer. The 15 is much bulkier, the cameras are large and it feels enormous in my pocket as the sides are no longer rounded. iOS is iOS so that’s exactly the same experience.

Sure I’ll get used to it, but it’s not the great upgrade I was hoping for.

Went from iphone 6s to android, and felt like im out of jail! (Using poco f1 since 2019)

I went through a few phones this year. I got into some money after selling my nasa pc, I didn’t care at all about upgrading phones ever since the 6s but it got dated and well. You know… So I got the 7 and loved it but it didn’t no updates anymore, then the 8 and iPhone X. Also got dropped this year. I also got to play around with the 11 from my girlfriend but didn’t really feel the need to get one. So I got the 12 mini and hated the battery life but loved the form factor, still battery life is the deciding one so I ended up returning it to the store and got the 12. Now I really don’t feel the need to keep going but next month I’ll get the 13 pro max and stop there.

To start with, each gen had its own perks but I have to say that I didn’t feel anything better from the 6s to 8. They all look the same.

The X was a game changer. I loved the OLED display and well it was a lot faster than the 6s I had in the beginning of the year. There were some real improvements in that phone but for today standards it too was dated. The camera was the biggest improvement along with the processor . The battery wasn’t really good but the phone it self was a lot better.

The iPhone 11 I didn’t really get because of the LCD screen. Nice phone though, I know you can get oled panell for the 11 on Ali.

The 12 mini, what a mess of a phone… jeezus, it overheats, battery is crappier than the 6s even though it bigger but cameras are nice.

The 12, now that’s a New phone! The battery lasts all day, the A14 is blazing fast and can play any game out there maxed out at 60 or near 60fps. The cameras are the same as the mini so, nice cameras. I love the iPhone 5ish design. Bezels are very thin. The notch doesn’t really bother me.

Conclusion, from 6s to 8? Nothing, maybe when the 7 and 8 launched back then, they probably were a lot faster and reliable but now, they are the same phone. The X came with a big bump in speed and cameras, the new design. Great and solid phone. Jumping straight From X to the 12- YES a massive difference and a huge improvement! I’ll check the 13 pro out and stop there until the 17 or 18 is out if I don’t wait till the 20.

I went from 11 to 15 both regular. Other than the Dynamic Island, no noticeable difference for me, oh well still an upgrade

iPhone SE (2nd gen) to the standard 14 was a bigger difference for me

i went from 7 plus to 15 plus and it felt pretty different.

I went from SE the first one to 13 and the difference insane

Just bought a 15pro today, come from an 11pro. I’ve used my wife’s 14pro. The camera is miles better especially at night. Screen is more fluid dynamic island is cool. But I haven’t used it in a day to day setting so it’ll be interesting to see. I was happy with my 11pro apart from battery and it getting a touch laggy. We shall see.
