I have an iPhone 11 Pro. Been trying a bunch of friends' 14 and 15 Pros to see if I should finally upgrade. Literally can't notice a difference.

I really don’t understand the “you must buy a new phone every year” crowd.

It hasn’t been the case that year on year hardware improvement remotely warranted upgrading - for iPhones or android for almost a decade. You get the majority of new OS features for 4 or 5 years before new features start needing new hardware support.

Only big noticeable difference is the higher refresh rate on newer Pro models. I also still have an 11 Pro Max.
