iPhone 17 Age & iPhone 17 Selection

[Cmhrob]

There is an existing poll asking which iPhone 17 model you are going to buy. This post has a different spin…

1. how old-ish are you (if you are willing to share) and, 2. which iPhone model did you/plan to buy?

I’ll start…53 and I don’t know. 🤷 I have a 14 Pro Max with a battery replacement and I may just stay put for a while longer.

Older than dirt, fire and the wheel. Ordered the 17 Pro Max 256gb, Cosmic Orange through IUP.

I will be 55 on September 19th. There are plans later this year, or perhaps early 2026 to upgrade to the 15 or 16 Pro Max. But right now, I'm still using my 11 Pro Max.

 

[noshooz]

65 years old, and have always had the largest iPhone available since the 6 Plus. I'm keeping my 16 Pro Max since I just got it in April to replace the 12 Pro Max.

I'm 62, and while I'm not buying a new phone this year, it would be the 17 Pro 256 GB if I was. I haven't used a Max/Plus model since the 7 Plus, not a fan.

I'm 57. I preordered the 17 Pro Max Cosmic Orange 1 TB (trading my 13 PM 256 GB to Verizon to fund the 17 PM).

I’m 53, and I’m a Pro Max girl forever. 17 Pro Max silver 512GB for me this year.

52 and getting the iPhone Air. Will be the first time I'm not getting the Pro version and first time with the larger screen. Coming from the 15 Pro.

 

[menju]

36 and getting iPhone Pro. It is good upgrade from iPhone 14 Pro.

45. Orange PM 512GB

 

[thecautioners]

39, pro max. Despite having average sized lady hands I’ve gotten “the biggest phone” since the 6S+ and have no desire to go smaller!

 

[Yuuuki]

33 and getting the 17 in sage. Will be my first base model in a long time. Well not exactly true I had the 15 Plus but all others models I always had over the years where Pro.

 

[Lwii2boo]

33. I will pick day one a 17 Pro silver 512GB after using daily a base black 12 256GB I got from day one back in 2020. I can’t wait!

 

[A1000]

I’m about 50 years older than my iPhone and we both need a few upgrades🤣

 

[iTom17]

I turned 29 just a week ago, and ordered an iPhone 17 Pro Max 256 GB Silver.

 

[stretch80]

45 here… Trading in an iPhone 13 Pro for a 17 Pro 256 GB Deep Blue.

 

[ilex27]

69, 512 GB Pro Max in Deep Blue on the iUP program.

Unhappy I can’t have black but after being forced to trade in my purple one (yes, yes I know but I’m still salty) I can’t allow myself to fall in love like that again. I really liked the olive green one, too.

Silly because I bang them right into a case

 

[Cyberguycpt]

43 ProMax Blue all day.

 

[mathiasinthe314]

38 and trading in the 256GB 16 Pro Max in Natural Titanium for a 256GB 17 Pro in Cosmic Orange.

 

[elvtnedge]

50 and trading in an IPhone 14 Pro for base iPhone 17 256 in black. Thought about the sage but I like more vibrant greens.

 

[Woodturner]

83 and keeping my 256 11 PM for an iphone 17 Pro Max 256 in Silver. Used to think "why", now "why not".

 

[LacrosseChic]

Early 40s and getting a silver 17 pro max

 

[NotApplicable]

37 blue air coming from natural 16 pro max

 

[Cliff3]

69 with a blue 17 pro 256 on pre-order. I previously had a 12 pro max. I found the large size to be unwieldy and the larger screen not large enough to be of any real benefit. I replaced it with a 14 pro and I am happy with that form factor.

 

[Pipper99]

I’m 64, and I’m getting the 17 Pro Max. I’ve had the large iPhones since the 6 Plus (I would have switched to Android if Apple hadn’t introduced a large phone that year, and I still think about the giant Samsung phones).

I’ve considered getting a smaller phone, but every time I pick one up and use it, I think, nope. I don’t like the smaller phones at all.
