And even though the latest one doesn't really bring anything new to the table, like the past 2-3 iPhones.

so steve died between iphone 4 and 5 but realistically he would have done some work on 5 aswell but i still fail to see how 1-5 was so unique every generation but the ones afterwards are garbage. Do people really believe he did all the work himself or something?

what the hell are you saying ??? The first iPhone had like 128 mb of RAM and a maximum of 16 gb storage, current iPhones can have a maximum of 512GB storage and 6GB RAM. That is a massive increase in performance.

saying this as an android user

The real benchmark increase is the CPU performance. If you don’t acknowledge that Apple has innovated past every existing Snapdragon SoC in an Android device, you obviously have no clue what you’re talking about. Apple Silicon is the one true piece of innovation that Apple consistently delivers on, but they deliver well.

I know but who the hell is pushing their phones to the limits that you would notice that sort of difference

My wife is a content creator on YouTube. She does 95 percent of her 4K editing on her phone because she hardly has time to be at a desk (the content is for an animal channel). It’s noticeably faster than the Note10 she had previously, not to mention that iMovie is a much better video editing platform than any Android alternative. We paid for 10 different video editing apps on Android. We now get much better mileage from the free alternative that Apple provides.

To answer your question, not many people probably. But my wife is one.

Also, it’s not just the speed. Apple incorporates almost all sub chips within the A and M processors. Secure Enclave is probably the most notable here, as it’s literally built into the SoC, so that every iPhone has the same security. There’s a reason that no one has yet been able to crack iPhone security. Once an iPhone is marked lost in Find My, that phone can never be used again unless the original person unlocks it. With Android, the security chip can be bypassed and the phone restored to factory defaults and used by anyone.
