For the firs time in a decade, I\u2019ve skipped an iPhone year and didn\u2019t buy an iPhone 12. Based on consumers, not geeks, I\u2019m not alone. Most people go 3 years between upgrades, some go 2 years and a very tiny amount of nerds buy a new phone every year. Six Colors is the only iPhone review I saw that mentioned the 11 to 13 differences. This is incredibly rare. Every time I saw a battery MaH comparison or a geek benchmark, the iPhone 11 was never mentioned. I think we should all push bloggers and reviewers to include at least 3 years of iPhones in their comparisons\u2026not every tiny detail but at least Battery, Speed, Features even if it\u2019s just a foot-note.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Via Six Colors:\u00a0 What difference does two years of iPhone iteration make?
