iPhone 15 pro/S23U

SO you not buying iPhone 16 Pro this round?

Nice, hope to see you join the bandwagon mate.

Wait for the official release, then we can continue to discuss.

Main reason I decided to upgrade because of the current iPhone 15 pro overheat problem and also the chip limitation on future upgrade related to AI. This phone simply not future proof enough to my liking. So an enhanced and more refined version of iPhone 15 pro is definitely a YES for me.

Not to mentioned improved in camera too Pro Max too big in my hand and I dislike Apple put a more inferior telephonic camera on the iPhone 15 pro. At least in iPhone 16 Pro, both Max and Pro version will using same camera, i feel much better

Hopefully you see a good justification from my reasoning to upgrade

Hehe..

Yea, i will keep the S23U too, because so far I am pretty satisfied with the S23U as my entertainment phone. So, I don't really need another big phone like Pro Max.

The overheating issue has been a big bummer to me, it gave me the impression that Apple was rushing to release a titanium phone without properly tested it. A half-baked phone... which is why you see iPhone 15 pro's values dropped like crazy even in Malaysia market.

That is why I often had this bad impression on them whenever they released their product the 1st time on something new, always screw up somewhere and can't be resolved by software updates.

So, the only solution will be upgrade the phone

Now I understand your pain point.

Yea, have to wait and see and then see which one frustrated you the most. From what I see, you can keep iPhone 16 Pro long term and those set up will be the one time set up until years to come

Totally agree with what you said. That is why it does not really excites me anymore but more on providing me the best experience and convenience to my day to day life.

And yes I also plan to go buy iPhone at apple store just to experience it

Duplicated. Sry
