    I have the iPhone 11 Pro Max space gray 256gb and I’m satisfied. It does what I need, the battery healths at 87% and lasts a full day of moderate use. Camera is great to me. Screen size is more than enough and the big notch doesn’t bother me. No scratches on the screen or housing. It’s good enough, so I’m not upgrading until it gives me a reason to.

    I upgraded from the iPhone SE (2020) to the iPhone 14 Pro and I gotta say it was definitely worth it! I love the OLED and 120 Hz screen. The screen just looks so beautiful especially in dark mode, and the animation is so smooth. Also, Face ID is so much more convenient to use than Touch ID. I was also not a fan of the original notch design and the new dynamic island looks so much more cleaner. Lastly the battery life is just freaking awesome. If you have the iPhone SE model or iPhone 8 and before, I would definitely go for the upgrade!

    I’ve just upgraded from a 12 Pro Max to a 14 Pro Max and it’s honestly been one of the most underwhelming phone upgrades. This isnt to say the 14 Pro Max is a bad phone - it’s that phones in the past few years have got to a point where they’re all amazing and no u[grades will really change your life now. It’s nicer to have a slightly better camera etc, but the cameras on the 12 Pro Max for example, were amazing anyway. If you have a spare £1000 then yeah, do it. But like most people, if you don’t have that spare money then don’t do it. Save your upgrade and put your heating on.

    The way I think of it and my needs in terms of if I should upgrade to an iPhone 14:
    If you have an iPhone 13 or 13 pro, not really necessary to upgrade
    12 or 12 pro, it’s a little more viable to think about an upgrade
    11 or 11 pro, I wouldn’t mind hanging back just one more year, but the differences here begin to become substantial
    From XS or earlier: should definitely upgrade at that point
    But for me, I still have my iPhone 13 Pro Max 256GB with 99% battery capacity left and I don’t want to upgrade this year
    Again it heavily depends on how you use an iPhone. If you simply just want smooth texting, emailing, web browsing, and calling, even the iPhone 8 being the oldest remaining supported iOS device as of iOS 16, you will have no hiccups. It’s just a matter of longevity at that point

      I spent $1500 on my iPhone 13 Pro Max this last March, so I'm not upgrading anytime soon; perhaps in a few years I'll consider it, maybe when the iPhone 16 comes along. I also have the Sierra Blue color, and the lack of any blue color option for the 14 Pro (Max) is disappointing to say the least. If Apple releases a blue color later on (in a similar vein to the later release of the iPhone 13 series in Alpine Green), that would be interesting. As long as Apple does not offer the 14 Pro (Max) in any shade of blue, I would expect that the resale value of a 13PM in Sierra Blue would be more than the 13PM in other colors.

    Don’t know about anyone else, but I’ve got an iPhone 11 and even though I use the cameras frequently and I appreciate the 120Hz refresh rate, it’s still hard for me to justify spending over $1200CAD for a new phone, assuming I sell mine for about $500CAD. The new models are very nice and I would normally probably upgrade, but given I’ve spent money upgrading to the M1 11” iPad Pro and M1 MacBook Air last year I just cannot justify buying such an expensive phone when the 11 more than gets my needs met.

      Yeah, the iPhone 11 is great. My iPhone XR though… oml. I bought it refurbished, it was damaged partially so it never felt new. It overheats ALL the time. It has a crack in it from when I dropped it recently after many years. It is incredibly slow (I heard 5g should help, I have LTE on my iPhone). And I am not a fan of the design in comparison to the more square design. Usually I would keep my phone, but my hands are burning up from the extreme heat (as I’m typing right now especially, I’m holding my phone uncomfortably to avoid burning) and, without use, my phone is dead after work. I’m going insane. So this purchase… it’s for my sanity.

    I have iPhone X, so I will definitely going to buy the iPhone 14 pro max. The reasons:
    1. pro motion
    2. dynamic island
    3. always on display
    4. bigger screen
    5. improvement in the battery life.
    6. better perfomace
    7. New camera and improvement of the camera over the years since iPhone x
    8. the iPhone 14 pro max is the only chamge with the notch.... ( even if the iPhone 13 has a smaller notch)
    9. my iPhone X has begun to make me problems.
    10. is it a perfect time to upgrade! iPhone 14 pro max is like the iPhone of my dreams!!!

      14 pro also has the island. I’ve found the pro max size to be difficult to use

      you will loose 3D touch they replaced it with haptic touch since the 11 series
      I will keep my X another few years it is still great, battery replacement and done
      But I can see your decision, many upgrades it is worth it

      The display, battery, and camera was the biggest things I loved about the 13PM coming from an iPhone X so you definitely won’t be disappointed with the 14PM just be prepared for the increased weight because it’s pretty big
