Me and my wife currently own a 16 Pro Max and a 15 Plus. I just ordered two base 17s as an upgrade for us. I am not paying anything extra for this but this move allows me to move to a phone with better brightness, better processor, less weight at the cost of a telephoto lens. My wife of course gets an upgrade for obvious reasons. Anyone else making a similar move from Pros to base? Just a bit tired of carrying around a heavy slab.
Got a tip for us?

I own a 15 Pro and plan to upgrade to the 20th anniversary iPhone, at the earliest. Hopefully by then we will have had a stainless steel iPhone in the line-up again, I'd buy that immediately.
For now, I don't see any reason to change phones because going from my 15 Pro to any phone in the current line-up doesn't look like an upgrade. The only reason I'd change is if my phone was too heavy as now you can switch to a standard 17 and still have ProMotion.

I have a 15 pro and i have ordered a standard 17 in white. I get terrible battery life on my 15 pro so was going to upgrade to a 17 pro but the only reason i got a pro in the first place was due to promotion and always on display. Now the base phone has these, i don't need a pro. I don’t game and I don’t take many photos so i can save a load of money.
