Fandroids are funny, you guys have been talking up 120Hz for years and now that Apple implements it its barely different?
    The cameras are not only better sensors but have a lot of new features. You don't have to look hard to see/ use those.

Besides, who cares? It's not like they are forcing you to buy new model. With years of software updates, you're in no rush to buy new model. I'm 3rd year on same model and I still don't really see a need to upgrade. Maybe with iPhone 14 or iPhone 15. Or maybe I'm not even going to go with iPhone...

Their software or something isn't optimised for 120hz yet. And you have to look very hard to find the improvement in the cameras.

These were upgrades as well, especially the camera system is a lot better. People make it seem like on Android side of things, there are breakthroughs every single year. This is just the way the market is, all we get are incremental updates year over year. The smartphone has matured immensely in the last 5 years, there's not much to be improved anymore.

            Sounds like an iPhone shill more than an analyst and an incredibly hard sell at that. The only improvement in this year's iPhones appear to be just the battery life.

Apple has nothing to do with this, and it's unfair to look at these places to accurately look at iPhone (or any other electronic device, for that matter) prices.
