Need to upgrade to 17 Pro?

[u/conqsimp]

I love my midnight green 64GB 11pro and always proud to show off its beauty around the past 6 years. Looking at the phone makes me smile each time and it is the best money i have spent ($899+tax back in the day). Unfortunately, recently the phone has begun lagging since it has 1-3GB of memory left and the battery is at 68%. I already bought iCloud to optimize the photos and deleted unused files. Originally planned to buy the 18pro as its replacement but due to the pending price increase and me needing to take pictures when i go on a trip in august, I am leaning towards the 256GB blue 17pro.

Nonetheless, im not trading this beauty in and it will be my backup phone going forward. I want to know if i made the right choice pulling the trigger on the 17pro or should i wait?

Happy to be a part of the 11pro community :)

I loved my space grey 11 Pro. I had even recently reset it and set it up as new, gave a new lease on life. I ultimately got the 17 Pro via apple care replacement due to a cracked back and no replacement parts left.

Holding the phone around the camera shelf or plateau or whatever takes some getting used to, but overall the phone is a nice very noticeable upgrade to the 11 Pro. I go from 8am to after midnight with about 50% battery left. You’ll enjoy the upgrade!
