I “upgraded” from the iPhone 11PM to iPhone 12PM, mainly because i use my yearly upgrade every year, even though i was actually thinking of skipping the 12PM because there wasn’t much of a upgrade, i still don’t think there is that much of a difference, but what really pushed me over to the 12PM was it actually ended up being cheaper, and no there were no discounts for 3,6, or 12 months, my bill actually went down by almost 12$ and this was also having to upgrade my data plan to a 5G plan, and also got more incentives i get the Disney bundle that includes Disney, Hulu and ESPN+, and they also added the Discovery+ bundle which also in not for a limited time but for as long as i stay on this 5G plan,
So the phone itself my not be that much of an upgrade but Verizon made it worth it to switch...
sorry i know this is a little off topic, but i will always tell people that the upgrade to the 12 is worth it, or i think so
