      I have a Galaxy S21 Ultra and each generation after has seemed not that impactful. Honestly, upgrading from my OnePlus 7 Pro to the Galaxy didn't feel like a big upgrade. I'm not as much of a phone gamer as I used to be. To me now, good battery life and charging faster would be more appreciated than more performance.
      One reason I don't need to upgrade is because I broke my S21 Ultra 2 or 3 times which means the battery is practically brand new.

      You can keep your S21 Ultra for another 3 to 4 years before you will start to see dips in performance and battery life in my opinion. I recently upgraded from a 5 year old Galaxy Note 9 to the S23 and only now it feels like a decent bump in all regards - camera, batter, performance, screen brightness.
      To be honest, my Note 9 would have probably survived another year if I really wanted it. I am planning to keep my S23 for at least 5 years again, because I feel like only then the small annual updates add up to justify spending over 1000$ on a phone.

Until the Fold surpasses my Note in usefulness to my specific kind of use case, i'm staying here. The iphone...

    For me, I've switched to a "run it into the ground until I have to upgrade" mentality with smart phones, whereas I used to be on a every 2 years cycle (back when it was the numbered / S cycle), whereas now 5-6 years seems to be my sweet spot. So the feature I'm looking forward to the most is "everything since the X" coupled with it not being on its last legs.
    Or to be less glib, USB-C will be very nice, as I can finally start retiring the lightning cables, and I'm going to be on Safari next year, so whilst I plan to use a decent DSLR, in a pinch the 15 Pro Max will make a worthy backup. Gaming only really interests me if I can use a controller / mirror on a TV (preferably over USB-C), in which case I could absolutely see myself using that, as I'm very much into handheld / tv hybrids (Steam Deck / Switch are my main gaming platforms currently), so a third pillar would be great.

I'm tech support for multiple families so anything I can do to reduce IT security issues is helpful. If someone wants that level of customization, they should get an Android phone which ultimately has better hardware much of the time.

    Absolutely agree with the sentiment on the Mini. I love the Mini formfactor, and no amount of extra power or functionality is going to make me change my mind on that. I will happy take the lower specked, lower priced Minis over the behemoths of the other versions every single time. For me phones have had more then enough power to do everything that I need for a long time now, so bigger phones with more powerful tools, and subsequently a higher price tag and bad ergonomics is completely pointless.

Hopefully the SE will get the mini design in the future, as i really don't like big phones anymore. I'm intending a small phone and an ipad mini to be my daily drivers in the near future, and considering how uninteresting the upgrades have been for a few years now i'll have zero incentives to buy the new flagships.

    I think last year had a lackluster lineup of base models, but exciting Pro models. And this year it’s vice versa, especially for smaller models. Upgrade from 14 Pro to 15 Pro will give you a 10% CPU performance boost, thinner bezels, and USB-C. And the new ultra wide band chip. The real upgrade is camera on Pro Max, but for me and many people I know, the size is not comfortable. Upgrading from any base model to 15 will be a big jump, but upgrading from 14 Pro seems not at all worth it, better to wait for 16 Pro.

    Still rocking my iPhone 12 mini and I'm still really happy with it. Merging the iPhone SE and Mini series would be super cool but I don't think Apple will do it. I'm making a qualified guess that the iPhone SE has a bigger profit margin than the Mini.
    The iPhone 15 Pro is interesting to me but I will stick with my 12 mini until I actually need to upgrade and that's gonna be a few more years.

    For a tech company like LTT I’m surprised they don’t just give everyone a couple hours off and host a massive watch party. It’s educational if nothing else and if they’re not already watching it (which they probably are) someone’s going to have to take the time out of their day to catch them up on the info anyway.

    My two cents is as follows:
    1) USB C is fine, since you finally get a universal charging, but unless you get the Pro iPhone, you don't use the full potential of the standard and are still boged on USB 2 data transfer speeds (which are like 23 years old by now and are the same as lightning)
    2) Gaming on an iPhone will *not* be a thing. While the chipset might have the specs to run Resident Evil 4, it has one giant flaw - pasive cooling, so the game might run just fine for 5 minutes, but then the chipset will thermal throttle and your fps will drop significantly (possibly to single digit numbers). In adition to that, if you hold the phone in your hands, you'll get 2nd degree burns after 10 minutes of gameplay.
    3) Yes! Even non-pro iPhones now have a 48 Mpx camera, something which even the mid-range android phones had for like 3 years now. Not to mention my Xiaomi phone (which costs about a 1/3 of the iPhone 15) has a 108 Mpx camera...
    4) iPhone Pro gets a 5x zoom, yes, but it is digital zoom, which means the phone just crops the image so it appears to be zoomed, but you loose the pixels
    5) The pro is now made from titanium, hooray! It's lighter and more durable... But drop your iPhone literally 0,1 mm from the ground and you'd still break your screen, at which point, unless you fix it yourself, you're better off by buying a new iPhone, because Apple's repair costs are astronomical.
    6) You get a new, superfast chipset, but realistically, you will use 15% of it's capability, because all you do on your phone is you call people, you message people and occasionally watch a youtube video.
    All in all, Apple is making a big deal about "new" features, but they are really nothing new (like the double tap on the new watch, which has been there for 2 years) and most of them have major downsides, which render them at best ineffective or downright unusable. If you are a sheep and buy a new iPhone just because it's new and you gotta have the latest one, then you migt be satisfied with it, but looking deeper into the "new" features and understanding, that they are not actually a revolutionary breakthrough as Apple would want them to be, you know it's not that great.
    Imo, unless you have an iPhone 10 or older, you don't really need to get the new one.

    Something I feel you forgot to mention - the iPhone 15 does now have USB-C, however it only runs at USB 2.0 speeds (up to 480Mb/s). That's a 20 year old standard. Odds are that's because it has the last-gen chip in it which didn't have a USB 3 controller on it. The iPhone 15 Pro does run at USB 3 speeds, up to 10Gb/s.

    I think the camera is more important than people think, I purchased my promax 14 because of the camera and it has been great. You can use the cameras depth-sensing technology,for measuring spaces to make plans, if you’re an interior, architect, estate agent, model, maker, artist. I use my camera a lot to scanning documents and to quickly reformat them. And I often take photos of document as reminders or to add to notes so better stabilisation and better 3-D scanning is great. I just wish they would put the best cameras on the regular pro as well. As I prefer a slightly smaller screen. Also, I always have believed that if you’re buying a pro phone to do work on the phones. They should start at 512 gigs. because one minute video can take one gigabyte of data so if you film or take photos and still want to listen to music. You are are better off with local storage. I don’t understand why pro phones and iPad Pro don’t just start at 512 GB. I think it’s Apple fixing the prices to make it look like there’s no inflation rather than that. I’m doing the right thing by starting the iPhone onto 256 GB. But it should be 512 GB, and then they decide the price.

    USB-C transfer for pictures and videos is a very very niche feature. Absolutely no one would use that if they have iCloud (and it’s even on PC). Or Airdrop if you have a Mac. Except if they film in Dolby Vision RAW, be pros. So I understand why it’s not on the regular iPhone.
    It’s just better to charge your phone when you forget your cable at your friend’s house. Or they don’t have QI chargers.
    I think that’s pretty much why people will change their iPhone for: convenience.
    As for myself, I’m very impressed by the Titanium with no additional price hike, the 120mm zoom (which I very much like), the ability to have different lens and the 48Mpix camera (I have a 13 Pro). Thanks now that I won’t struggle when forgetting my usb cable, and I do love the gesture on the watch.

Then went to a Pixel 5, and have been waiting for Apple to have AOD and USBC. I was excited when they dropped AOD kinda outta nowhere, and knew USB C was coming since EU stuff. Apple investing so much into widgets and adding them to lockscreen makes leaving android even easier tbh. I'll miss somethings, but most of it can be added to iphone if u want to make it happen. Apple is close enough in photos that it really won't matter, and Video they also have top 1a/1b whereas Pixel typically lacks great video.
