I recently got myself an iPhone 15 Pro, coming from the 14 Pro Max. I love how light and portable the phone is, with addition to USB-C, Action Button, 8GBs of Ram, and Good Camera.

Besides the good stuff, I feel that we have hit a slow incline of improvements and excitement starting from the iPhone 6, IMHO.

I upgrade every year based on my undying love with tech, so that might be why I feel underwhelmed, but I just don't feel that we can ever hit that WOW factor anymore.

My first excitement was upgrading from the iPhone 3GS to 5. That was huge. And then as time goes, I lost that excitement factor as I upgrade from the 6 to 7, 8 Plus to 13 Pro, 14 PM to 15 Pro.

I may be going crazy, but I was thinking of returning my iPhone 15 Pro and get the iPhone 13 or 14 regular and wait for whenever the iPhone gets a major overhaul with its hardware. That way I can get that feeling of excitement again.

Am I the only one who is thinking this? Besides that, I am very happy with my iPhone 15 Pro, just not as excited as I was anymore.

I went from a iPhone 13 Pro Max to the iPhone 15 Pro Max. I personally wasn't planning on it as I was perfectly happy with the iPhone 13, but I was offered $1000 for my iPhone 15 Pro Max which made it $8 a month. My mom is on my plan and she was still kicking it old school with the iPhone XS Max I had before the 13. We were offered $800 (or maybe it was $650) to upgrade her phone so she has the iPhone 15 Plus for $4 a month now, massive upgrade for her.

Unless the same promo comes around in 2 years, we'll be hanging on to these phones.
