That’s what I like about my 13PM is it’s smoothness and overall performance consistency

That’s actually good to know. That the 14P is still buggy to this day. By the time I have the funds to payoff my 13PM it’s probably going to around august. So I may hold out for the 15PM or Ultra or whatever they’ll rename it to. Knowing rumors about the high end 15 at this point are probably just that. Until around July/ August when they will probably be more likely accurate.

That’s a pretty good reason longevity is important. I personally love the fact that iPhones last along time. As I don’t usually tend to upgrade every year. Usually every two or 3 years.

I remember being tempted by the S8+ at the time. I never did get one as I started drooling over the new iPhone X at the time it was announced. As it was radically different from any iPhone before it was released. And being futuristic compared to really anything else out at the time. It also didn’t help being a high school student who had very little spending money. I remember being blown away by my iPhone 11 when I got with stimulus money in April 2020. It’s kinda how the iPhone 14PM blows me away as being different from its predecessors. Along side its improved camera system and the purple color. Offered this time around is just gorgeous.

I agree about the 13PM being a bit big for pockets. I use an OtterBox Defender that comes with a belt clip. The camera system is phenomenal on the pros. I use to have the 11 with the dual camera system. But ended up stuck with the SE 2 for about 13 months. When I switched carriers in 2021 to Verizon as my 11 was still carrier locked. I went from my 5S to a 6s Plus to the 11 then the SE 2 and finally the 13PM. A Pro Mini would sell like hot cakes in my honest opinion. The only thing stopping them in my opinion is how big the camera bump would be.
