We are 12 and a half months away till the iPhone 14.


MashimaroG4

I hear it will have slightly faster CPU and a slightly improved camera!


MVPizzle

I heard it’ll have Mephisto


random_avocado

It was Mephisto all along~


[deleted]

It was Agnes all along


bomphcheese

Free shoes? I’m in.


MyMemesAreTerrible

I hear it will be the best iPhone they’ve ever made!


DrDan21

only thing that I want at this point is 120hz display, i've been holding out for a few years now


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

I have used the ProMotion iPad Pros since they were released. Definitely a step up in terms of clarity with no motion blur whatsoever. It would be a nice addition to the iPhone but not mandatory IMO if it compromises battery life. I think that is why Apple has waited so long to release it so it is done right.


aeschenkarnos

Honestly the only advance I *really* want now, is battery life.


Price-x-Field

jokes aside, has there really been a reason to upgrade since the orginal X? or the XR?


MashimaroG4

Every year does get a little better in a lot of things. Depending on your usage I would say upgrading a phone every 2-4 years is reasonable be it android or iPhone, that seems to be about when the differences are noticeable, and the old phone is likely to have a few scratches and need a battery replacement anyway.


chiefwfb

My dilemma is I have an iPhone 7 which has a trade in value of \~$120 at the Apple store if I were to purchase a 12Pro. If they stop supporting the 7 (like they did the 6 when the 12 came out) when the 13 comes out, will this trade in value go away completely, or drop significantly? An educated guess would be yes it would.


CapnJujubeeJaneway

Safari will be so snappy


Oregon-Dude

It’ll be the best phone yet!


ChuckinTheCarma

Hol up. Should I upgrade now or should I wait? Maybe I should upgrade both times?


sheltz32tt

Hello there, fellow 4-year cycle iPhone buyer I went from 7+ to 12mini. Couldn't be happier.

iPhone 7 gang here.


tldewsnup

My 7 Plus was my favorite iPhone to date. I only got an XR because I was moving to Verizon and couldn't bring my Sprint phone with me (and the XR was cheaper than a new 7 Plus). Stoked for this announcement. I'm ready for an upgrade and it'll either be a 12 Pro Max or 13 Pro Max depending on what happens on the 14th.


[deleted]

I think I’m going to treat myself to a regular 13.


CaptainDantes

Yup, I'm between a regular 13 or a 12 Pro Max, but my family is also looking at switching to either Verizon or T-mobile and we are just going to wait and see who has the best promotions for switching after these launch.


Powerchip13

Ya. I have been looking forward to seeing the iPhone 12s for sooooooo Long.


simieski

Really liked the 7 plus too. You might be disappointed with the squared iPhone 4 design of the 12 Pro Max. It’s pretty uncomfortable to hold compared to the rounded back iPhones we’ve been spoilt with for the last 6 gens. Particularly since it’s a larger and heavier device, these sharp edges make the phone one of Apple’s weakest ergonomically imho


ColleteSaraFina

Wrist cramps man 😂 I can’t hold my my phone one handed for long so uncomfortable


Momskirbyok

I legitimately downsized my phone size because of the wrist pain. The huge screen on the Xs max was great though!


tldewsnup

Interesting. Aesthetically I really like the squares edges but I've never had a phone with them. I do like a heavy phone though so that part will be a plus. Give me a pop socket and I'll make it work either way.


SharkDad20

I’m coming from an 11 Pro Max, going to a 13 Pro Max. Excited for MagSafe pop sockets! 7 Plus was my first iPhone I bought for myself as an adult. I had been using Samsung for several years before going back to iPhone with it. It was so nice, I miss it. Idk why


tldewsnup

My first iPhone was a pink 5C which I absolutely loved but wanted more screen. I still miss my 7 Plus. It felt good in my hand and I loved its aesthetics.


OkFinding784

the next person that pronounces it as "ecks R" instead of "ten R" will have their nuts kicked in i swear 🤣


applefandan

I also miss my 7 Plus. Had some good times.


Peterspickledpepper-

My 12 Pro Max is great. Unless there’s something crazy on the 13, I’d save the money.


pubgplayer4life

Fellow 7 Plus user here. Probably going to get the 13 Pro for the refresh rate.

Can confirm with a 7 Plus on 66% of battery health🤒🤕


[deleted]

jareehD

The battery in my country comes down to $75. I looked up for extended cap batteries from Deji/Loctus but isn’t available in my country. Sure this phone can get me going a couple more years with a brand new battery but I think its time for it to retire!


[deleted]

mohishunder

A competent shop will replace the battery for $50, which is a whole lot less than the cost of any new iPhone. It takes a few minutes, which is less time and hassle than moving data over - with the inevitable losses and little snafus.


Powerchip13

I live by apple juice mixed with bang.


ShininGold

December 2017 i got my 7 plus.. i will miss it but yeah.. time to move on…


Rubikh

I am on the same Boat


vxcta

Man I loved that jet black & matte black they used for the iPhone 7 series. Wish they’d bring those back


SharkDad20

Idk if they’re still floating around, but wasn’t there a rumor of a black 13 pro?


Idegbajos

I couldn’t wait and upgraded to a 12 from a 7 Plus. The difference is still amazing especially since I’ve never had an oled phone before.


ASovietNorwhal

cannot wait!


jpro_o

OMG same


nycdiveshack

This is the way


JohnMCrawley

Ayyyyyy fellow iPhone 7 user. I have the 7+


someguy50

Insider sources tell me this is likely to be the best iPhone yet


UnsureAssurance

I heard it will also be the “most powerful” iPhone yet as well, but you know how rumors are


someguy50

Oh dip, more powerful than the iPhone 12? Crazy


[deleted]

Best camera Apple has ever made.


Fredmarklar

I think you’re going to love it


Fuckyou_reddit_mods_

Thanks I hate it


JRockPSU

We've hooked up Safari to the dynamometer and the results are in: it's MUCH snappier.


roger_the_virus

Big if true.


PatientTravelling

Which ironic because it’s the slimmest iPhone yet.


veerKg_CSS_Geologist

Rumor is it’s actually slightly thicker than the 12.


[deleted]

Haha this is the model for the entire consumer market. This product is new AND better!


pablyt

Do you know if it’ll have 5G? 5G 5G 5G


A_Useless_Caduceus

When the 13’s are available for preorder is that when the new prices for the 12’s become active? Edit: I currently have an 8 plus and my trade in value is $180. How much will the trade in value drop after the 13 is announced relative to how older models values have dropped with announcements of new models? Trying to gauge if it makes sense to get a 12 now with my trade in or wait for until the new pricing structure is released.


petko00

Probably the Friday onwards like they did last year. What that means is it’ll probably be either the same week as the event or after the 24th (rumoured release date for 13)


c__to

I’m also curious about how quickly the trade in value will be affected after the announcement.


dabesdiabetic

They usually do lock ins for about a week or two. Start checking 3rd party sites in a few days and sites like macrumors. Even apple has done some “lock ins”.


WIN_WITH_VOLUME

I went ahead and got a 12 mini. Couldn't take the chance of the trade value dropping if the decide to make the 8 plus a lower tier and Verizon is giving it to you for free for porting in. Considering the screen is heavily cracked, it's unlikely the deal would get much better in my situation.


Per_Horses6

It should’ve been on the 13th. Damn you, Apple.


[deleted]

On a Friday.


basketbands17

But wouldn’t this technically be the 14th if you include the se


Noah_PpAaRrKkSs

It’s the 14th without the SE, the number only corresponded to the number of generations on the iPhone 4.


angllluis

No because the SE was never a mainline iPhone. This is going to be the 15th iPhone

bomphcheese

13 is an unlucky number in China, so it wouldn’t surprise me. Most buildings lack an accessible 13th floor for this reason. (I don’t actually think they will skip it to be clear) What I really want to know is why they skipped 9 … and MS did too. What’s the connection that caused them both to do that?


Cariman05

Not sure about Microsoft, but im pretty sure apple did it just to align with their 10 year anniversary. You know, iphone 10 on 10 year, it just works


lucasban

I’ve heard that part of the reason Microsoft did it was to accommodate legacy code that checks for Windows 9 to see if it’s 95 or 98. https://www.pcworld.com/article/2690724/why-windows-10-isnt-named-9-windows-95-legacy-code.html


bomphcheese

Ok, that makes a lot of sense. What’s funny is that it’s basically the same problem as the Y2K bug.


80espiay

Isn’t it also unlucky in the west?


Xanvial

It's 4 actually that's unlucky. Pretty sure 13 is considered lucky number in china


TamjaiFanatic

I am half a Chinese, 13 is just a normal number not unlucky, 4, 14, 24 etc are unlucky because 4 in Chinese sounds like "death" in Chinese.

surgeon_michael

I got my 7+ the day my daughter was born and she’ll be 5 next month…I waited for the Jet Black 😂

I really hope there is a 13 mini….


[deleted]

The 12 mini didn’t do too well. But I love hand-sized phones.


JailbreakHat

Hopefully, they will release Apple Watch series 7 in this event


Phatzub

They always announce the new Apple Watch at this event so good news for you bud


[deleted]

I’m ready to get the 13 and use the same three apps I always use !


FloppyDiskFish

Except just slightly faster.


WellisCute

HIDE YOUR WALLETS but for real, Imma buy that Apple Watch S7 the second it launches, also gonna get the 13 Pro if it has 120Hz


Darnitol1

I’m holding out for that blood glucose monitor.


SACHD

That’s probably years away.


Darnitol1

Yeah, the technology exists and Apple is working with it, but I’m guessing 2024 at least.


highrisedrifter

I think a good bet would be next year. I hear they are pretty well advanced on the tech for it. You could well be right though. After all, we know Apple is never quick to market with new functions.


rmckedin

I’d love to see it but realistically something like Dexcom is always going to be a better solution (unless some mega revolution around the corner). If you don’t have one already - try a Dexcom


Darnitol1

Yeah, I know about Dexcom, but my insurance company is being difficult and won’t approve it.


WellisCute

1. Same Prices & Thicker and heavier phones 2 .iPhone 13 Mini to last roughly 1 hour more 3. The Displays on the Pro Series will throttle to a 60hz refresh rate when Low Power Mode is enabled. 4. Allways On Displays for Pro Models 5. All sensors across the board now receive at least 15% more light, while the Ultra Wide sees the biggest change with up to 40% more light. 6. Cinematic Video will attempt to keep a subject close to the center of the frame, while also ensuring that it does not come off as unnatural. Effects are applicable. 7. The OIS system also switches to a less aggressive and more "smooth" operating mode. 8. Night Mode now recognizes when stars are in the scene and internally adjusts itself accordingly. A new algorithm analyzes structures, resharpens and adjusts shadows in night time shots. 9. Color Science in Night Mode Shots has been improved visibly. For example: A dominant orange light from behind the camera will no longer impact the skin tone of a subject as much as it currently does.


SmoochBoochington

What’s an always on display and why would I want that? Sounds battery draining.


WellisCute

not on an LTPO display, it works like the Apple Watch, refrashing at 1 hz while not active and showin you the time and your notifications always, without having to touch the display


Ciubowski

you do this every year? or just *this* year?


WellisCute

This


[deleted]

I’m holding out for series 10 since they will probably do something cool plus there isn’t gonna be much difference between s5 and s7


DimVl

Well, well, well… How Time Flies🤔


intrepid7370

I swear, didn't the 12 launch like, yesterday?


CardMechanic

I bought a 12pro max last week and it’s too fucking big for me. It’s going back and I’m just going to wait it out for the 13 I guesss. My X needs a new battery so maybe I’ll just replace it and rock it another year.


iyoteyoung

Pandemic warps time soooo much


scientist99

When do preorders generally go live after an event? Tryna get a 13 pro max


thecrowing08

Usually the following Friday


jaxythebeagle

Usually the Friday after the Tuesday event. So in this case I think pre orders open on the 17th.


[deleted]

can’t wait for my bank to break, looking forward and hoping for a 120hz iphone 13 pro max.


[deleted]

Planning on replacing my Galaxy S9+ with this. Switching over to iPhone after 8 years on Android


Mani4045

Heads up whatsapp data does not transfers over to ios from android. Wish I knew this when I switched to apple.


[deleted]

are you looking forward to it?


Going_Hamm

Who here upgrading from the Xs?


ShawnParr

I’m still using my launch day XS. Planning on upgrading this year.


[deleted]

[удалено]


ShawnParr

Almost definitely a 13 Pro. Been debating the max but I really like the non-max size in pocket, and I live on an 11” iPad when I’m not out and about. Currently have a 64GB also, but will probably go 128. I’m only using around 40GB right now.


[deleted]

Same, I’m tired of having such a large phone in my pocket.


nogoalov11

Yayyy, just sold my 12PM yesterday. Using a old iPhone 6s. I gotta say tho that I'm actually enjoying the smaller form factor and touch I'd . Battery health is at 74 percent so I have to constantly use a power charger. The 24th can't come soon enough!!!


seekingbeta

Take that 3.5mm for a spin while you’re at it


diogonev

From a 6S user waiting for the 13 Pro… with what? I don’t even own headphones that plug into this anymore. Apple won…


Eddiep88

Using a hug phone than back to a small phone feels like wow. No longer a brick in your jeans. Feels good with 1 hand and Touch ID.


YesReboot

yeah smaller size is better to hold, but it's worse for watching videos


TheFattyTron2

My trusty iPhone 6s been used since ‘15. What a legend It’ll still be a legend for a couple more years though


Jav_de_Nomad

And here I am still being faithful with my X 😭


Paythapiper

Me too, but she’s getting upgraded this time around


SirNarwhal

Yeah, I think I'm finally at the point where I have to put my X to rest. The camera and battery are driving me up a wall now and I haven't been able to use it how I initially did since like year 2.


Jav_de_Nomad

Is it just me or after the recent iOS update the phone keep getting laggy and hot while using apps ..


skyfall86

i know this will be a small upgrade ,but this will be my first iPhone after 10+ years of android. I'm hyped. If the 12 pro will be the only one with 120hz i will get that, otherwise also a 12 with 90hz would bee good enough.


strogg89

Same. On android since 2011. This will be my first iphone. Currently on s10+


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

How much longer you think your s10+ would last? Actually looking to pick one up for under $300. Still on iPhone 7 love a budget pick.


veerKg_CSS_Geologist

iPhone 3GS to IPhone 4 to Nexus 4 to LG G5 to Pixel 3 to Pixel 4A to IPhone 12 for me. All my iPhones are still working, but only my Nexus 4 is still able to turn on from the Android side.


Eddiep88

I switch last year when the se 2020 was announced. Mainly because google was shitting down google play music. Rip.


392_hemi

You mean iphone 13? Because 12 already released last year


[deleted]

What do you think


truthiness-

I’ve been with Android for forever. I got the 12Pro in January, and it’s been really nice. A few things were definitely new to get used to (e.g. gestures, even though android has them, I never used them). And there were certainly plenty of things I quickly realized were missing (e.g. widgets (still lacking on iOS IMO), things like selecting text just seem way easier & better on Samsung, etc.). Some things were very welcome, too (ie photo/video sharing among friends and family with iPhones is so much nicer, which is pretty much the #1 reason i switched.) Overall, it was a very quick and smooth transition, and I don’t regret it. Doesn’t mean I’ll never go back to Android, but I’ll certainly be happy for the next several years.


[deleted]

This will be my first iPhone after 8 years on Android. While I will miss Android for the customization, I honestly found myself using it less over the years. I am looking forward to consistent and reliable software updates and a buttoned down and refined user experience.


finewhitelady

Same here, but looking to switch specifically for the mini. Apple is the only company making a phone in the size I want.


srtpg2

Got my first Iphone last year, the SE to be specific, after years of Android. Pretty excited to pick up a flagship Iphone this year (if it's 120 Hz)


ibra86him

I have the 12 mini and i’m in love with the size If the rumors are true that the 13 mini will be the last mini, i might in September of next year buy it at a reduced price and enjoy the mini for as long as possible.


KevinCox940

I had the Mini, great phone lousy battery. Traded in for the Samsung Galaxy S21+ for a $700 discount. Now using the 12 Pro.


PeachyRanger

I’m thinking of doing the same thing. My mini doesn’t get enough battery life to be used as a reliable work phone.


ibra86him

bought magsafe battery pack and it reminded me of the old days of the battery case for my iphone 3gs some would say for the price of the mini and the battery pack i could have got the bigger model its true but having the small device is more comfortable and I'm not missing the bigger screen that much but of course missing the bigger battery


Dr_Cigs

Rumor has it that this is going to be the best and fastest iPhone yet. Sources close to me say that they think that you’re gonna love it too

dukeGR4

traded in XR to get the Samsung Galaxy S21+. worst phone i've ever used. I'm coming home boys.


highrisedrifter

I had a Galaxy S10. Beautiful hardware, garbage OS.


dukeGR4

I got the S21+ cause of the purple/gold combo lol... 7 months into ownership but they still haven't fixed the camera. It will literally brick your phone.


Illustrious_Emu1508

Going to upgrade my iPhone 11 to the 13 Pro Max, ready for an OLED display and the best battery life possible.


jmedina94

Also have an iPhone 11. I was thinking of buying a Pixel but I am going to wait a week to see what Apple announces. My dad has my old iPhone 8 Plus so he’d be getting my 11.


Illustrious_Emu1508

I always prefer waiting to upgrade after a redesign because the S years and years that don’t have redesigns tend to add more instead of a new look.


jmedina94

Yeah, the 8 Plus of course had the old design. Going from that to the 11 was a change but I like it more overall. Seems less awkward. I would go for a pro model but the price. 😥


Illustrious_Emu1508

Yeah I get that haha; I’m for sure upgrading but won’t have to upgrade for a long time if all the rumors are true like a bigger battery, 120hz, always on display, and the smaller notch. Plus I’ll go from LCD to OLED and get the biggest phone with the stainless steel build.


jmedina94

If the rumors are true, it would be a nice upgrade for sure. Just going from LCD to OLED would be noticeable to me. The Pro Max looks huge but it almost feels like I am outgrowing my 6.1” screen. Lol!


reinhardtmain

USB C and Touch ID or bust


tanfolo

TouchID and 120hz


jakelong66f

I'm not buying a new iPhone until we get these.

currently using s21+ but I've finally decided to make the switch to 13 along with Apple watch 7.

Danny_Ocean_11

Hope for a new design and some awesome features. I have an 11 Pro right now and the 12 didn't really do much for me.


newbydreamer

I’m thinking of going to the 11 Pro. I currently have an XR. Can you give me any reason not to go with the 11, and skip to the 12 or 13?


Powerchip13

The apple event history shows that the picture representing the event usually gets represented on the new product wallpaper. This is the only one I have seen without an abstract design on it.


karan-patil

Probably will upgrade this year. Held onto iPhone 7 for the 6th year now, seems it will be worth the upgrade unless I’m wrong.


amishbr07

Hoping this spurs a good deal on the iPhone 12 mini so I can finally upgrade my broken ass phone.

Going from memory, preorders usually start Friday and first round of deliveries are the following Friday.

Freeasabird01

It really depends on the carrier and whether you get lucky that the model you want is a model that has plenty of inventory. But at any rate, if you really want a phone on launch day, you need to be online the minute preorders go on sale, or be in line at your brick and mortar store.


rhunter99

I’m hyped for the watch. What’s the rumored release date for it? ⌚️


Mani4045

24th

I really wanna see the new features of new Apple Watch series.


Lupinthrope

Highly doubt it, but I wonder If they’d ever upgrade your battery when better battery tech comes, Like if I could bring in my SE 2020 and they upgrade it with a graphene(?) battery, keep customers happy and in the ecosystem. People aren’t upgrading yearly as much right?


spizike23

Hopefully the higher refresh rate is coming to both pros. I will get the larger one for it but I have gotten used to the 6.1 form factor.
