iPhone 13 Pro Max Looked at new iPhones - lost motivation to upgrade

[belindaquek]

How much of an upgrade you expect from 14 series? Especially when your current phone is a 13 pro max. Nobody tends to upgrade their phone yearly unless they have the spare cash (trade in, etc..) or they just well, want to

I’ll add one more thing. How did they get Bin Laden? The guy who would usual meet with him forgot to remove his battery from his phone. That was it and Bin Laden’s location was known. See why removable batteries don’t exist anymore except for the super secure phones. Apple should come out with a secure phone with a removable battery for those that need an extra secure phone.

I see. To indicate the size of that market you identify, could you estimate how many people are being hunted by intelligence agencies with a view to being terminated, rubbed out, slotted, taken down, bumped off, neutralised?

That’s just an example of why batteries can defeat hacked or compromised phones. That type of phone would be sold to governments, etc.

This is the skip year* (*exceptions may apply for certain individuals with hopelessly old phones where battery replacement makes no sense)

I have an 11PM and was going to skip again but then, for no reason, changed my mind.

I upgraded from my 12 Pro Max and couldn’t wait to upgrade to the 14 Pro Max. I have no regrets and even decided to start upgrading yearly again.

Huh?
You mean you signed up for the iUP?

Personally I thought last year was the skip year. This year is a decent upgrade.

No. I’m going to trade my device into Apple every year and upgrade. I pay outright for my devices.
