Isn't the iPhone 13 coming out in a few weeks? I've always felt the only time to get a premium phone is within the first 6 months of its release. After 6 months, you might as well wait for the next model in the cycle.

Suppose if one has to have "latest-n-greatest" when first comes out, the new reiteration has "must have" features, don't mind paying full retail at start, then sure buying upon initial release is an option. But nothing wrong with purchasing a slightly older flagship especially if one can get a deal and it suffices for their needs. W/Apple they support their devices for such a long time so it's not like one will being left in the lurch on the support front anytime soon, they retain their value as well compared to other OEM's.

And newer isn't always better either, just got to look at Samsung to see that. No power brick, no SD card slot, and so on.

Yeah, but apparently Iphone 13 is going to be quite a big upgrade from 12, if all the rumors are to be believed. But yes some people are ok waiting for the drop in price. I still think for the full price you might as well wait a couple more months. Missed opportunities ...

The iPhone 13's price "may" be a big upgrade too even though that's kinda been refuted, even so something to think about there. And I think there's only one missed opportunity when buying a smartphone these days, buying one that fails to meet one's needs.

You revived a 2 week old post to add nothing other than a shill for a shit phone? Did your account get hacked?

Why do care or anyone for that matters. Two weeks, two years who cares.

I care because I click on New Posts and see the thread about the iphone bumped, maybe there is new info... Open the thread only to see a useless post from someone waxing poetic about their 2.5 year old p30 and complaining that iphones are too expensive adding no relevant info to the thread. :facepalm:

If you don't care, feel free to ignore and move on. I am on vacation, have some time and decided to voice my displeasure at the garbage post. If you feel the need, report the post or add me to your ignore list, it won't hurt my feelings.
