    I ordered one in 2011, another in 2015, and another in 2019.

    You’re welcome, Horace.

      Never did get excited about the releases. The changes were not life changing.

        Yeah I buy when the current one gets too slow or the battery is shot and it’s old anyway. Seems to take 4 years or so.

          Try the new series 8 Apple Watch. Apple Inc. says it supports a new feature that will tell you when you ovulate.

            I really want to hold out until they put a USB-C on it. That will be required in a couple of years (thanks, EU!), but I’m hoping they implement it early.

            Then I’ll be at a point where all my devices use the same charger.

              I had an iPhone 4 back then - but only because somebody else paid for it. I don't really give a damn about what kind of phone I have, as long as it is semi-decent.

                Imagine there's no Lightning
                It's easy if you try
                No hell below us
                Above us, only sky
                Imagine all the devices
                Chargin' for today

                Imagine there's no USB-A
                It isn't hard to do
                Nothing to kill or die for
                And no adapters, too
                Imagine all the devices
                Chargin' on USB-C

                You may say I'm a dreamer
                But I'm not the only one
                I hope someday you'll join us
                And the world will charge as one

                  I believe the iPhone 4 was the last iPhone I owned.

                  Perfectly happy in the Android universe.

                      I get one with my job. I've had a Windows phone (horrible), then Android and now iPhone. I don't really see much difference TBH. I've stuck with Apple the last couple of times as the transfer of data to the new one is easy.

                      I was only joking

                        The recent releases aren't changing that much. Maybe they've hit the ceiling of what users want, for the most part, as well as what tech can provide. Personally, I have the iPhone 12 Pro (6.1" screen) and really wish they had like a 5.8" screen option, again like they did with the 11 Pro. The mini (5.42") was too small (sorry, @George-K ) when I tried it out.

                          I have a 12 and no plans to upgrade.

                            I don't even know what number I have. It's no wonder my kids call me grandad.

                              I have the 13. I only upgraded because I wanted to hand down the 12 mini to one of the kids. Otherwise, i would have kept it. No plans to "upgrade" to the 14.

                              My phone(s) before the 12 were an 8, 6s, and 4s (my first iPhone).
