Do they really "need" an iPhone? Won't am unlocked smartphone from Costco for a few hundred, may $5-600 do just fine?
Got a tip for us?

That would be nice and an ideal date but seems unlikely since multiple sources are reporting 😩
Pumped! Can't wait for the new Pro Max (or equivalent).
Coming from an 8, it'll be a huge lift for sure.
Oh boy Apple's official yappy dog reports the official leaks he's given.
iPhone 15 is update not an upgrade not anything special unless your current old iPhone is showing it's age. With the economy the way it is only diehard Apple Fanboy Cult will be rushing to buy the 15.
Apple's main product lines have peaked and no big new must have features. Only real new product is VisionPro and that is an expensive niche product that hasn't built a developer base outside of Apple to interest the public. I wouldn't want to work in Apple Marketing for the next few years they got a lot on their hands to make incremental updates sound like big upgrades.

I guess I am a Fanboy Cult. As I tend to upgrade yearly.
Yep. Count me in. I work hard so I can buy shiny things.
I'm also a yearly upgrader. It's easy to buy into the hype of the marketing machine telling us why they think we NEED the new phone and why last year's flagship is now so "gross" and outdated. Technology brings me joy, and it is my little escape from the busy and often stressful life that I'm living. I work hard so I can afford this technology and have these fun moments.
If you want to upgrade on a yearly basis or choose to hold on to your iPhone for as long as you can. Both choices are absolutely fine! We are free beings and we can choose whatever we want to choose. No need to attack each other over a piece of technology.
Phone should be lighter if the titanium rumors are true.
Battery capacity is at 89% so time to upgrade
Can’t wait to see what colors they launch in.
Excited for the 15 Pro Max. 13 Pro ➡️ 15 Pro Max will feel like something new, and I really miss the larger display and battery. I find dynamic island interesting but I fear it may either go away entirely or not be developed/utilized much like TouchBar and 3D Touch.

Lots of music and movies ;-). It makes easier. Just once or twice an month to ad new films to the phone.
i love the brushed look! So much better, now have to decide on pro or max~
