Im not a apple fanboy, and I dont own any of their product but I have a good portfolio of their shares because I like the stock.

But you're absolutely right, there hasnt been any wow factors in their product since Jobs died, but if you look at it they arent trying to impress YOU, they're targeting the less than average Joe that only needs their phone for youtube, facebook, and netflix (insert my mother). They've created an ecosystem, a sub-culture, die-hard fanatics that it doesnt matter what they release as long as the camera is better, its faster (yet looks exactly like the previous model) these people will eat it up. They took away the cable, power charger, aux jack, and selling it to you for $1800 and people are shrugging it off. Today, who's owning the latest Iphone has become a common dinner table topic. Unless we stop buying their products nothings going to change, and I for one dont give a F cuz I like watching my money grow.

In nearly three years it cost me $380 to use it and it was well worth it as it never let me down for my business needs. Last Android I had was the Samsung S10 which was also over $1100 when I bought it new, three years later I struggled to sell it at $300.

You will definitely notice the difference. The 13 pro will have a far better camera in terms of features, low light, and other capabilities (although, not COMPLETELY night/day), will be heavier, faster, and 'generally' better due to the tech baked into it. However, most people are content with having a phone that does everything good enough, and I believe the X (my son has it) still takes beautiful shots for a phone nearly 4 years old. My wife has the 12 Pro Max, and I've had almost all of the models at one point or another through reselling, and I gotta say..I'm a bigger fan of how the older models not only look, but how they feel, as well. Don't get me wrong though, it was great having the 12 Pro Max. And it's truly capable of fantastic stills, and incredible video. But there's something magical (possibly nostalgia) whenever I hold an X, or an XS Max. I think it's one of the most beautiful made iPhone's, next to the 5. (My opinion, of course).


I got my hand on an iPhone XS Max a couple of weeks back, and it was an incredible feeling; The new models feel 'soulless' by comparison, but on a cognitive level, they're new, right?
