Seriously nothing has changed that matters... Unless you're upgrading from a potato wait a year or two for the next iPhone. This phone smells like iPhone XSS... It's not going to make sure you feel great like the iPhone 4, 5, and 6 did...
I am considering upgrading from my potato. The last few years of camera evolution really do make a difference from a 6s.
 
Save your breath. Most people know this. i know, hard to believe.

But they just might want it, as apposed to need it (at least me), although the lines are vague. Some people need the camera stuff, not I.

There's always these threads. Legitimate threads, with people who want to help. Gives people a chance to express how they are attached to their phones and know it, and are ok with it, or at least resigned to it.

Have the Xs Max and will be getting the Pro Max. Not wowed by the Pro Max, but I knew it wasn't going to be a big update and pretty sure most people already knew that too.
 
All signs have pointed towards 2020 as being a pretty big upgrade. Seriously, since the start of the year it seems like everything good was geared towards 2020.

Which signs? There were so many incorrect rumors about this phone that no one knows what's coming next year. It is an S year next year so I'm not sure why people think that there is going to be some huge changes.

Not your call. I personally am still waiting for something that I feel is worth upgrading from my 8 Plus for, and for me this ain’t it, but some people will decide that this is worth their money. Whatever floats your boat. They’re not spending your money, so why tell people what to buy or not buy?

I love my XS Max.. I may or may not upgrade when my cycle is up. Nice to have the better camera and faster processor but believe that I read somewhere that the benchmark tests are not showing a huge difference. I'll be curious to see what the user feedback looks like.

My family members that still have 6/6S and 7 are interested because they want Animojis. Other than that they don't care. They just want that little perk all the rest of us have.
 
I said that I wasn’t going to upgrade, I’m not a huge fan of the design (then again I hated the 7+ and X at first too), but the single thing that really did it for me was the battery improvements.

I’m beyond thrilled to have a Max sized phone that I won’t feel the need to have a battery case for on a long day.
