12 through 14 models are all good phones that should all do a good job for easily 4 or 5 years. I have both the 12 pro max and 14 pro max, and I still love my 12 pro max, in hind sight I could have easily kept it for another couple of years , it’s still a dam good phone , and although the 14 pro does have some decent improvements, I could have easily waited another year or two and saved a cool 2 grand Australian dollars for the 14 pm.

Man, you are so right! I agree with you that we don’t need the latest and greatest tech every year, I am still on my iPhone Xr from 2018 and it runs great, minus all the camera improvements in the later models, but marketing is the main driving force that’s getting people to upgrade every year. With regards to the lack of dopamine hit from getting new Apple products, I too am exactly like you, but I put it down to age. I am of the same generation as you, and as I get older I don’t get the same hit as I used to with new Apple products, we are wiser now. In the words of a wise old woman, “use it up, wear it out and make it do!”

I don’t think it’s just because of age. I’m 27 and I feel the exact same as you. Last time I was super hyped about a phone, it was the 6S Plus that I got back in 2015. 3 years after that I bought an iPhone X which was great and all, I had it for 4 years and I felt a stronger satisfaction of making do with it for “just one more year” than to scout for newer and better models. Last year I got the iPhone 13 (not pro), bought it without a plan, so it’s paid for right out of the box. The reason I keep coming back to iPhones is not because of the magic anymore, it’s because they just work for many years.

The battery is still at 92% and easily gets me through 1-2 days even with heavier use. After getting my hands on the last 2 generations of PM iPhones I really can’t see the point in upgrading esp. at the current iPhone price points and like you, I like to buy the phone outright. Otherwise, it feels like you’re just renting the phone for a few years and then trading it in. The 12 PM has excellent cameras and will continue to be my daily driver for the next couple of years barring any stupendous upgrades. Thank you for your honest appraisal.

I totally understand what you’re saying, however, I am around the same age as you and I believe that plays a big role in it. Or it could be that smart phones have lost the “wow” factor because they are well past the honeymoon phase. I have the iPhone 13 Pro Max and this is the first phone that I plan on keeping for years because the cameras are at their peak for the meantime and promotion is amazing every time I pick it up. I’m not sure if we are all desensitized from all of the unboxing and anticipation of the new phones every year. It could be the guilt of buying the new phone and then one week later some KZitemr is talking about the next one and we are all saying we should’ve waited one more year to buy it. I have to say it was an amazing time to be alive to see the birth of the smart phone. I just wish my children could’ve grown up without them like we did.

Nice video. 100% correct. I've never bought new each year, and only ever bought even-numbered iPhones - I've owned the 4S, 6S, 8 Plus, Xs Max, 12 Pro Max and now the 14 Pro Max. My next iPhone will probably be the 18 Pro Max (if that's what it's going to be called). Only reason I updated every second year, was to hand down my phone to my Mrs, and 2 sons. With regards to getting that dopamine hit, let me offer you a new fix. Wait for the videos to come out of people regretting upgrading their phones. It's funny to watch people complain about how similar the new phone is to the last - what do they expect, 1000 new features, a zoom camera that can focus on the footprints on the moon? With regards to FOMO, spend quality time with your partner and kids (if you have any) - they'll appreciate it, and you'll still have the precious memories that you can still capture on your 'ancient' 2 or 3 year old phone. They are memories you would not have had, if you'd spent it on a new phone. Any when I get the 18 Pro Max (again, if that's what it's called), I'll probably have that for 10 years - I'm 51 now......

For the longest, until yesterday, and I mean just yesterday, I have been using my iPhone 8. And yesterday, I switched to the 12 Pro. I believe either of the iPhones are great. And u will get the best of quality in any of them. I know people that are still using the iPhone 6s Plus and still getting the best of it. Personally, I don’t believe one should buy them as they dish them out. The tech boys can buy for their reviews… but end users, u won’t appreciate the tech change if u keep changing the phones every year as they pull them out. Why not make the best use of the one u have then make a jump after 3-4 years. And u will be good…

The iPhone 15 Pro Max is just a 12 Pro Max version 4. Same design, same user interface and a few small upgrades. The Apple Store installed a new battery in my 12PM and it’s doing everything I need. Might keep this phone until support runs out.

I traded in my XS Max this year for the 14 Pro Max. The only did it because Verizon offered me $800 trade in value for my XS Max with a cracked screen, but I'd still have it if it wasn't an offer that good. I'm definitely happy with the 14 Pro Max though, I'll probably keep it for 4 or 5 years. Upgrades also feel better to me when I don't do it every year.

Exactly, it feels good to upgrade when you NEED to. Not WANT to

Same here. I got a crazy 700$ trade in deal for my iPhone 12 Pro Max. I wasn’t about to let that go lol. Are the differences with the 14 crazy noticeable? Nah. But my battery is light years better and a deals a deal. 🤷🏻♀️

Love this video! I’m still rocking the 12 pro max for my main personal device as well. I still love it, I’ve never once even noticed anything I’m missing out on. When I hold it without a case it still feels exciting and new. Before this I upgraded almost every year. Likely I’ll end up getting the 15PM, but heck, there’s a chance I could hold out even ANOTHER year lol.

Agreed except the 120hz. I started using a 60hz screen briefly and it was making me feel nauseous.

In the past, my wife and I replaced our iPhones every two years because our plans subsidized a significant amount. This year it stopped and rolled into a lower plan with BYOD. So we decided to hold on to our iPhone 12s we bought two years ago at release and have no desire to replace them with current versions for another two years to come. At that time, it will need a review of the benefit to replace them because there is no real benifit after two generations now. Yes, in a year or next, we’ll need to replace the battery, but that’s a lot cheaper than 1K each.

I’m still using an iPhone 8 Plus. I’m actually looking at a 12 Pro Max upgrade. I noticed the 8 is starting to struggle so it’s time.

My general rule is, upgrade every 3 years. I got my 13 Pro Max in Alpine Green (sorry Jason) late in the cycle (May ‘22), and it’s been my favorite iPhone. That 120hz does make a big difference when you go back and compare it to a 60hz iPhone. And my battery is typically over 60% at the end of each day, which is amazing. I had no interest in the 14 lineup. I’m hoping to hold on to this until the 17 comes out.

I agree with all of your video Jason and I work in a mobile phone store . I find it harder every year promoting these extra features for yearly upgrades .

Jason. Thank you so much for sharing. I am watching this video on iPhone 12pro. Completely paid off, still runs great. Some older folks from my family still uses IMac from 2007. Runs fine. No, you don’t always need the latest stuff. Have a good enough experience is fine, then you enter the land of diminishing returns. It is like with your beer - first can be awesome, second one - great, third - good. And so on. Take care! And please make more honest, no-bullshit videos like this!
