Just finished setting up my iPhone 15 Pro Max 256GB Natural Titanium.

I’ve never had an iPhone on release day before and hopefully this one will see a good 3+ years of service.

I’m on a XS max (2018 release). Still going strong. I think this is the last year it will get major upgrades.

I checked it out at a retail store thinking it would change my mind but still not convinced to upgrade. I’m definitely thinking next year will be it. The titanium feels kind of nice in my hand tho.

Your phone will probably last 5-6 yrs if you want it to.

It would be nice if it lasts that long but my 12 Pro Max was only 2 years old and the battery health was already down to 81%.

I usually upgrade every 3 models. Less than that and they don’t feel like new phones.

Just replace the battery if it's annoying.
