Other Why did you Upgrade?

Love me some Natural Titanium. LOL

Seriously, I love how it matches my 2022 VW GTI Performance. Moonstone Grey.

This is where I'm at, where I owned so many phones that Color is the reason why I'm upgrading.

It's the reason why I got the Samsung S23 Green. I even thought about going for the 15 Plus Green but I'm a Pro Max type.

Two years ago (I skipped iPhone 14), I sold my Sierra Blue 13PM after Apple released it in Green. I went with the 13 mini though. I just wanted to see how it is. Regretted it. I thought I would be okay knowing how poor the battery life is.

Got a 14Pro, moving up to the ProMax size as I need the increase in screen size. Features are a nice bonus and I had an upgrade available from the mobile network.

Cuz I’m in AUP. I like to have the newest iPhone every year. As I’m getting older I’m finding it less amusing though….

I'm upgrading from a 12 Pro Max, so the titanium and the new features will be awesome

I upgraded because I wanted to. I realize that that retort in and of itself doesn't justify here on MR but, it's the best I can do.

For me it makes more sense buying the new iPhone every year and sell the other with Profit, than keeping it and purchase a new one every x-years

I like having the latest phone and it never costs me any extra per month so why not?

It's actually cheaper this year so win, win

I have $1280 in Apple gift cards I need to use!🤔

I'm an idiot.

I’m impulsive and I like always having the best camera since I have 3 little kids

Love to have yearly newer version. Something to look forward to from Apple! Annual IPhone upgrade tradition 😉

I haven’t decided yet, but if I do upgrade from my 13 Pro Max to the 15 Plus the main reasons will be (in order of importance):

#1 lower weight (201 grams vs 240 grams)
#2 matte frame that doesn’t show fingerprints, thus not needing a case and further reducing its weight
#3 brighter screen up to 2000 nits
#4 upgraded camera sensor @ 48mp
#5 usb-c connector ubiquity
#6 crash detection / sos satellite service
#7 A16 being supported for longer
#8 possible future dynamic island features
#9 front facing camera autofocus

Decisions decisions 🤔

Lower weight, and for the Blue Titanium colour/finish mostly. 5x optical zoom, action button, and usb-c are nice to have as well.
