We’ve now gone three generations in a row (11, 12, 13) without an S variant, do you think the XS was the final S upgrade and from now on they will try to change the design (even if it’s subtle like the 12 -> 13) each year? In previous discussions many indicated they preferred the S variants of a phone, so if you’re one of them will you miss getting the suped-up version every other year?
I thought the 13 was going to be the 12s until the rumours about the changed camera layout and smaller notch started to leak out. I thought Apple might have used a tick tock tock pattern like the X, XS and 11 Pro or 6, 6s and 7. Now I think they have probably ditched S updates, or at least it feels like it would be unusual to reintroduce them now. The 13 does feel a bit like a 12S with a few minor cosmetic changes thrown in though, so maybe S years will continue even if the phones no longer get branded as such?
