With Titanium shell, are we just going to get one color, like watch Ultra?

Artificially capping the transfer speed of any phone in 2023 to a standard released in 2000 is shameful. Even if it's a hardware limitation, it says a lot that Apple would forgo the hardware to bring it up to USB 3.0/3.1/3.2/4.0. Nothing more to say other than it's disappointing coming from a great company.

Shameful indeed but what is more shameful is the mental gymnastics performed by users on this site to justify Apple's greed.

Excited for everything except the loss of the mute switch.

should just remove it completely. no point in it.

No point in having 6E for Wi-Fi when you can be 7 complaint and ready which covers wifi 6E.

The silence switch is golden and should always remain!

"iPhone 15 Pro models will feature a USB-C port..."
It's terrible that they gave in on this. Companies like Apple no longer have the freedom to innovate.

What? USB-C is the standard while Lightning has been past its prime.

Just wondering about all the iPhone 15 rumours... Why so many?
Is it because the iPhone 14 is getting beate by many competitors in speed, functions and price? Looks to me that development at Apple is on snail speed compared to competitors and by leaking possible future enhancements they're hoping to keep momentum for iPhone. Top listings from the iPhone pro like 120 Herz screen refresh rates are already standard in midrange Android competitors. I wish Apple was more focusing on bringing the best to it's customers instead of milking them to the ultra max. Bring back the soul in the company, they certainly have the resources to do so.

That's quite a long while to have a phone . I had an iPhone 6S (or was it the 6? I can't remember...) and it had the battery expansion issues twice which required replacing the battery and at one point I think the screen. After it happened for the 3rd time I decided to upgrade.

I'm on the iPhone 12Pro now, also upgraded because the iPhone Xs suddenly died. Hopefully this 12 Pro lasts many years before I upgrade. The only reason I'd upgrade really is for the camera advances. Everything else I feel is sufficient for my use.

Yep. I buy the top spec, then make it last as long as possible. It's on the 3rd battery now and last battery change off eBay made it last longer than it did after the official Apple battery replacement about 2 years earlier. "It's a phone. It's a web browser. It's an iPod." as Mr Jobs once said. It still does all that stuff and generally runs apps fine. It's admittedly a bit slow these days. I got given an SE recently for work. Made me realise how slow my 6S actually is, but if you're used to it then you don't notice so much. Kind of a shame I can use that as my own personal phone but it's remotely administered by the company. That SE's seemingly almost the same phone as the 6S apart from being super-responsive, having a haptic home button instead of clicky, not having a headphone jack and not being able to move my cursor by force-touching anywhere I like on the keyboard.

So yeah, if I can keep this til next refresh I will, as newer is generally better and it would be kinda handy to be able to plug it in any of the USB-C chargers cables and docks everywhere at home and work and finally ditch the proprietary lightning.
