I don't know how many people do upgrade that frequently tbh.

I mean, anecdotal obviously, but the 15 has been out for a couple of weeks now and I don't know anyone (IRL) who has one. Most of the people I know are rocking phones that are two or three years old at least at this point. My mum has a 14PM that she's had a year that replaced her X. My wife has a regular 14, which was a replacement for an 11. Those are the only two people I know that have a 14.

I think it's fair to say that people as a whole are upgrading less frequently, which is reflected in how much these things cost now, which is part of the reason people are upgrading less frequently...
