iPhone 11 Pro vs. 14 Pro: New Features to Expect if You've Waited to Upgrade

Passed on upgrading from my 7 Plus to the 13 Pro Max but will make the jump this year to the 14 Pro Max - just give us a true black option ala Jet Black
Still hoping that the mini form factor will come back with the next iphone SE.
Why do they need to make the screen larger? The 11 pro feels like a really good size (maybe I’m used to it, I used to love the size of the 5S).
I get people have a need or want to have a larger screen size but I don’t get the need to increase it a little bit every few years unless there’s a drastic design change.

Won’t be upgrading my 11Pro. Next year I will get the 15Pro. Still not enough upgrades. I know it’s only a rumor, but I hold phones for a while and if there is a chance of a periscope camera next year, I don’t want to wait 3-4 years to get on that train. I do a lot of zoom shots and I don’t generally care about print quality for work.
oh wow, that is really a long list, but … regarding the ip11 pro:
iPhone 15pro is the one to upgrade to (if it ships with USB-C).
The iP11 pro is (very) good for at least another year or two. Save the planet, do not upgrade just because of mediocre changes.
- The Axx ist still more than fast enough
- I love the 5.8” display - please do not increase size
- 5G will be a reason to upgrade
- Cameras are excellent - only in harsh conditions we will see little improvements

My XsMax is still going strong. I hate the notch so now that it is going away im tempted to upgrade.
Almost zero chance of that, it will be USB-C, the portless thing was a brief rumor not backed up by any facts
Asa George Carlin once said, the plant is fine, the people are the ones screwed
EU doesn‘t allow a portless smartphone. It has to incorporate USB-C unless it is too small. And Apple is already testing it.
Still have the 7+, the only reason i have to update is that the calling qualtiy sucks more an more ;-/ So i hope the jump from 7 to 14 will be worth it
iphone 4 - Crazy Incredible Wow
ipone 5s - Wow
iphone 7+ - Nice Screen, but the wow was gone, hole in the wallet lasted longer ;-)
I hope the 14 get's at least a "nice" over the 7, but let's see how much money they want from me, otherwise a 12 or 13 will do for shure. The most used apps work ok on the 7 and i don't game (or say, i prefer to game on a Big Screen), so the camera and battery life will be the most valued thing, say nightmode, but will it give me a good shot at the moon in the night, maybe the ipone 33....
For me i don't see the point if you you update every 2 years since the x, but if it makes you happy and you got the bucks..... it's still a free world in some places on this planet. Keep on Rockin Neil......

Going to stick with my 11 Pro. Completely happy with it and don’t have a reason to upgrade at this point. Maybe for the 15!
I really can't say enough for the added joy of waiting several years before upgrading your device. No matter how they try to make it sound, year-on-year upgrades are incremental and quickly fall into the background (iPhone 7 to X excepted). My iPad Pro is 6 years old this year and I just know how amazing the upgrade to the first iPad Pro with OLED is going to be in 2024.
11pro user here, wondering how the weight and dimensions have changed. I’ve really liked this device but am not keen for something heavier.
No thanks. I went from the 5s to the 11 pro and it’ll be at least that long again before I part ways with this device for whatever apple has out at that time.
You really think that? Ever wondered why eg sport photographers use like 200mm lenses? Or wildlife photographers 400+mm lenses?
Following the 3 year design change thats been happening since iPhone 6, (6, 6s, 7, ; X, Xs, 11) I would bet on upgrading to the iPhone 15 to anyone coming from an iPhone 11 pro, right?
The camera is good enough on my 12pro. Not looking for more improvements, but the 1 thing that would make me consider upgrading is a higher optical zoom rate. That's one thing that can never be high enough. Haven't seen any mention of this yet.
My wife and I will each be upgrading from a 6sPlus since Apple's next iOS will not support our phones. We avoid unnecessary upgrades for the last 7 years. However, we enjoy seeing everyone buying new phones and helping push our Apple stock up (we bought a large amount of shares in 1998-1999 at less than $13 per share) and have more than enough to retire several years ago.
the weight and boxy form factor really put me off from owning the new iPhones. Still happy with my hand me down 11Pro Max
