Meet the new boss. Same as the old boss.

Yawn! I have a 6s+ already.

And don't quote improved internals at me. I don't need bleeding edge tech to send an email, make a phone call or answer a text message. My boring 6s+ can do that just fine.
That's why I'm still rocking the SE, and will be for a while.

Yep this is me. People will always find a way to justify buying something new. Let them, its fine, but we know what it is.

Still have the iPhone 6. Very happy I skipped 7 so I can justify the upgrade to 8. For me it's mainly the new design and update camera that attracts me.

Same situation as me from my 6 Plus. I might drop to an SE2 if ip8 is not enticing enough. Well see.

Why is it so hard to imagine? The clock is still ticking. In another one year and one month time there will another announcement for new iPhone model again.

Have a lot of people never bought an iPhone before? :)
 
I tell myself every year Im not gonna upgrade, then I find myself up at 3am every pre-order night buying one. I don't need to be a new phone, it's just something I cant resist.
I normally upgrade annually. I was super happy with my iPhone 4 and kept that until iPhone 5s, but otherwise did annual preordering and once a wait in a line at the mall.

I did not preorder last year. I thought the iPhone 7 Plus looked too much like my 6S Plus and the removal of the headphone jack infuriated me. But my husband got me one for Christmas and I love it. It so surprisingly exceeded my expectations I'm almost mad. Because I was mad about the headphone jack, can't stand Phil Schiller's smug demeanor, can't stand that Apple seemed to be coasting and, pardon the expression, just phoning it in, yet they produced a phone that was worth the upgrade after all because it gave me the phone camera of my dreams. Im so glad I didn't miss out on this phone after all.

I expect there will be some rough patches with a whole new redesign, so I'll hang onto my IPhone 7 Plus. But anyway, I'll be up with my caffeinated beverage, trying to get myself somewhere on the preorder queue with the rest of my fellow :apple:Sheeple. (I mean that affectionately) :D
