I’m still using my iPhone 11. It’s about to hit its third anniversary of use and the battery is still at 88% health (89% if I am to believe coconut battery). I’m not a heavy user though. It still does absolutely everything I ask of it and I expect to get at least 2 more years out of it (probably with a new battery at some point). I think if you are not chasing any single novelty that comes out, you can expect a long lifespan in your iPhone. I personally don’t care about AI on my phone so I’m perfectly happy with the new features I’m getting out of iOS 18 (particularly the home screen customization and the better integration of reminders with the calendar).

I was debating replacing the battery in it, but with the trade in promotion Verizon is running now it didn’t cost me much more to get the 15 Plus. My first gen iPad mini still works to this day, as well as my 9.7 Pro. I’m liking the 15 so far, it has a little more screen size with little penalty in size or weight from the XR. It looks slick in black and I put it in a Smartish Grip Zilla case in the “Graspin’ Aspen” style, and it’s a great case if you’re looking for something non slippery. It almost feels like spray in bed liner material in the hand.

Why I use my se more is because I have my Fitbit set up on it and it's small enough for me to use quickly on the fly and put it back in my pocket but the fact that it still holds up and runs all the apps I need to use says they last longer than 5 years.

As an iPhone 15 user the best thing to me about Apple AI is that it's not gonna come to my phone. I was really happy when they said that my phone wont support all of the useless, annoying and creepy AI fakery features. I can't stand all this AI hype going on right now and i really don't need any of that in my life. Guess the iPhone 15 will be my first phone that i will be using for more than 2 years. Probably until it becomes really obsolete in like 4 or 5 years and by that time i really hope that the majority of people got sick of AI being shoved down their throats as well and that companies start to move away from AI, even though the chances of that happening are slim. If companies in 4 to 5 years, when my AI-free iPhone 15 becomes unusable, are still putting AI everywhere, i swear i'm going to turn my back on smartphones once and for all and get myself a dumbphone instead. I really don't have to use and support a product that overstepped boundaries.
