Holding out for either 17 pro max or 18 pro max. Hopefully Apple delivers, the hype for the 16 is ova.

I was sure I'd get 16P as an upgrade to 13P, but having trouble convincing myself to do that. The best feature would honestly be a non-scratched glass (for the first 6 months or so)
 
Meanwhile, when contacted about the new iPhone, Steve Jobs daughter retweeted re-xitted her comment from several years ago:

I checked the Pro and Pro Max at my local Apple store (upper midwest).. All sizes and colors available for pickup today.

Where do you get this information from? No stock available for the Pro Max models at all in 12 stores near me.
 
I ordered my 16 Pro on Wednesday for a store pickup. Heading out in just a few minutes…
 
FedEx is the absolute worst. I don't understand why these top tier companies still use them. I'm sure it is to save a few pennies though.
Truly. I ordered some Nomad cases for the iPhone 15 Pro Max last year and they lost the package at their facility nearest me. They literally open and closed an "investigation" and then Nomad tried to make me jump through hoops to get my $200 refunded (trying to put it all off on me as if they didn't choose FedEx as their carrier). Will never willingly do business with either of those companies.

Just cancelled my preorder delivery because there was stock locally. Anyone have any idea how long it takes to reset the upgrade program status so I can place a new order?

EDIT: It reset not too long after.

Anyone from iPhone 12 or 13 onwards should consider upgrading otherwise, why bother? Not everyone cares for the minor improvements from the camera or screen, and yes, there are people who have no idea what ProMotion is.

Heck I still know plenty of people holding onto XS or 8 for the smaller form factor.

I'll probably upgrade once my AppleCare for loss and theft for my iPhone 14 Pro runs out, because USB-C across all my other devices is important to me. By then (Dec) Apple Intelligence will probably be around.

12 maybe.. 13 Pro, which I have? I can't fathom a reason as to why I should upgrade.

I am not upgrading my 12 pro max for a 16 pro max. If the rumours are true the iPhone 17 pro max might be the next big revision.
 
Lest we forget…”This is the BEST iPhone we have ever made”

Oh my, THANK YOU for reminding me! I totally forgot to pre-order an iPhone 16. I'll go pick one up now.
