I downgraded to an iPhone 11 Pro Max – and I’m not missing much::When I recently wrote about the iPhone 15 Pro rumors I care about, I mentioned that upgrading to an iPhone…

Yea, I’m literally on an iPhone 11 and bought it with the intention of using for this long as a minimum (I picked it because it had a good battery and seemed to be a good iPhone generation). Previously I was on a 5. Some people just need to be forced to see that not consuming like an addict is actually possible.
The 11’s don’t have 5g though. That’s a pretty big negative since network’s are dedicating less and less bandwidth to 4g.
Are we not going to talk about battery? I’ve never had any luck w iPhone battery being able to perform that’s this old. Replacements are a thing, but Suprised this wasn’t mentioned.
Battery life tends to be the one things I really look forward to with a new phone these days. Instead of paying to replace my battery, I just sell my phone and get a new one.
tl; dr: out-of-touch tech journalist realizes living like a normal person who doesn’t buy a new expensive phone every year is possible.
I had to check, and my current phone (Gslaxy S10) was released 6 months before the iPhone 11 Pro Max. I have no plans on upgrading any time soon.
Yep. Made a switch to iPhone when the 14 came out. Verizon rep thought my wife and I were retarded for not wanting to pay an extra $500 and ditch the 13. Only time I get a new phone is when it’s destroyed. No need to have the latest and greatest when it’s not doing anything functionally different.
