They don't claim what iPhone they are coming from. This could be 70% of people with an iphone 13 or below.There's no way that when the new iPhone comes out that anywhere near 70% of people get rid of their old phone, right?

70% of forum members are going to click on this article to figure out who came up with such a ridiculous statistic
Yet, look at Apple stock prices in the past few weeks. They will make another 52 week high as soon as the next event concludes.Out of 10 friends not one was even aware of the new phone let alone plan to upgrade… Apple has fell from grace and the disparity gets wider each year. Siri is a joke and prices are expected to rise with Trump in office. Let’s face it Apple has lost is appeal. Only thing keeping it up is the monolithic hold it has from legacy products and brand loyalty. Newer customers are less likely to join as competition ups the ante
The issue is not necessarily the survey. Average consumer is pretty clueless regarding AI. Some heard about Apple or ChatGPT and that’s it.And this is a credible survey…..
That's a very small sample size to make such broad sweeping generalizations, which really don't apply to Apple's billions of customers at large.Out of 10 friends not one was even aware of the new phone let alone plan to upgrade… Apple has fell from grace and the disparity gets wider each year.

Everyone gets the friends they deserve – though, maybe there's a bit of a difference between you and Apple.Out of 10 friends not one was even aware of the new phone let alone plan to upgrade… Apple has fell from grace and the disparity gets wider each year.

In reality, I honestly do not believe that 70% of iPhone owners around the world are going to buy a phone from the iPhone 17 range.
Read the article title again. It says "70% of users." USA not mentioned in the title.Read the article again. It's 70% of iPhone owners in the US, not the world.

Copilot/Gemini is sometimes not even known. Most people have no idea what is Perplexity / Claude / Mistral etc
Most people here are tech enthusiasts, we do not represent average consumers
What incident are you talking about here?Just hoping we don’t get another iPhone 14 Pro incident
What incident are you talking about here?
I’m on a 12 Pro and considering it. But not sure if I do it this year or wait one more. My battery health is down to 83%, but still hanging on and I’ve considered just replacing the battery soon. There really isn’t anything this phone doesn’t do that I want it to do. Greater zoom would be nice on the camera, but otherwise the camera is good enough 99% of the time for me. USB-C would be a nice change just to be on the more common connector for everything even though I don’t really have a problem with lighting. If they bump the max storage to 2TB, that might be it. I could put my whole music library just on my phone then at 256Kbit. The Rumored RAM bump would be nice, just hoping that if I disable apple intelligence, other apps get to use the RAM it would normally reserve because I have zero interest in apple intelligence and I don’t see that changing. But we’ll see I guess.They don't claim what iPhone they are coming from. This could be 70% of people with an iphone 13 or below.
Why not be serious then? Only quote figures whose method of collection you are familiar with.The issue is that we given the results of the survey, but we don't know how the survey-takers were selected, or what the questions they were asked actually were.
These two factors can significantly affect the results.
They're not aware Apple releases a new phone every September and has for over a decade? Your friends sound like our mtc. department that seems completely surprised and taken aback that it gets colder around December; and this surprise happens every year.Out of 10 friends not one was even aware of the new phone let alone plan to upgrade… Apple has fell from grace and the disparity gets wider each year.
