    Depends on your price range. My 12 Pro works just fine except the battery is getting to the point where I think I might replace it.

    Normally I upgrade every year to the model two years old. If I can find a cheap enough 13 Pro ($325) I’ll buy it and sell my 12 Pro for $275 and just upgrade for half the cost of a battery replacement.

    I use a dedicated digital Olympus camera when taking pictures so the phone camera is ignored. My old lens from my film camera days fit the OM10. The RAM and storage were the deciding factors when picking my first Apple toy. I regret getting the iPhone 14 plus as it was too much money for my uses, but it does promise a long life. The design means nothing as I always put a thick protective case on the phones I carry. I have no vanity about what phone I am seen carrying. As a phone, I will use it until the phone fails, Verizon no longer supports it, or I die.

    I have a iPhone 12 ProMax and the battery is still great. Had it for about three years and this month I’ll finally pay it off. 🥹

    I could easily use it another year. I’ve never had any hardware issues either or had to factory reset it.

    iPhone 13 Pro/Max is better. It has A15 chip, 120Hz screen. The difference between A15 and A16 is small, iPhone 13 Pro also supports portrait focus change. The only thing is the 3X telephoto camera is not great in low light condition.

    My wife got my 12 pro max and it works perfectly fine, good speeds, no load times between fast app switching / menu / camera whatever. I wouldn’t see why not 👍🏼

    I just traded my 12PM for a 15PM - the £395 trade in offered by Apple was too good to miss and the battery was basically done. Honestly, apart from the faster refresh rate (which I stopped noticing after a day or so), the experience is very similar. One thing though: iOS 17 definitely came with a performance hit - apps were a bit slower etc.
