To me, the most interesting thing is that Apple won't even show the previous 2 generations in there...

Apple Outlines 'Reasons to Upgrade' Your iPhone on New Website

The dull iPhone 15 colors and lack of a physical SIM card tray are two more reasons not to upgrade.
Let me know when you bring back a mini iPhone and I might be interested. Otherwise I’ll be using this one until it dies.
I honestly only upgraded to the iPhone 15 Plus for the USB-C and battery. I can hardly tell a difference in every day life next to my previous iPhone 12 Pro Max and I actually find the front facing camera much better on the 12. Only speaks for the longevity of the iPhone nowadays though!
Same! I don't have the funds to upgrade phones but my XS Max is sitting at 65% battery health and it is NOT a happy camper these days. I'm going to try and make it last another year so I can get a regular 15 when the 16's come out - I really want that USB-C connector!

Wasn’t there already a comparison tool on the website?
USB-C is the one reason why I’m not looking forward to upgrading in the future.
Jikes just get that battery replaced. I gave my MS Max to my mum in December and she’s happy
And the tech is getting boring too.
Why upgrade indeed! Still on the 2020 SE and going to get a battery replacement next. Feeling absolutely no pressure to upgrade.
Imagine a combination in dropdown menu there is an easter egg... just in time for easter
Look, we need to increase sales. The shareholders are so so demanding. Please just buy a new iPhone... the one you have is great, but its last years model. Who wants that. You know you want a new iPhone. Go on, you want it... the experience of opening up a new iPhone

Is there also why not to upgrade? Like because it’s moving my money from my account
to Apple account 🤓🤗

Not enough meaningful changes to justify spending so much. It’s Apple quietly acknowledging that they’re not adding enough changes in recent models to hook someone with a two-year-old iPhone to upgrade. Something that would’ve been no problem years ago.It’s hilarious how they don’t put the iPhone 13 lineup in the comparaison. Must be not enough changes
They say money won't make us happy either.
If someone wants to give me a few million dollars and a bunch of new tech toys, I'd like to put those 2 hypotheses to the test.
I just compared my 12 mini with 15 Pro and it’s kind of underwhelming thinking about what I would get in comparison to the cost
What’s next? A reminder everytime I don’t see a dynamic island popup on my iphone 12?
You wish - the Youtubers will just read the article via screen record with themselves cropped in the corner and offer their 'hot takes' as they go.
...Oh god, the next step is them reacting to the comments section of MacRumours.
Or more likely Apple thinks anyone still rocking an XR is probably running that thing into the ground.
You sure about that?

Weird that it doesn't include iPhone 13/14. I guess that just confirms that there is no reason to upgrade from my 13 Pro.
