I am on the AT&T Next program and can feasibly get any phone I want in January but I’m not sure I even want to. There’s a part of me that just wants to wait and see what is brought to the table next year. Plus I don’t know that I’m ready to give up Touch ID yet. But then there’s the part of me that always needs the latest and greatest.
So my question is...is anyone else holding on to their 8 Plus this year and are COMPLETELY happy with that decision? And what led you to that decision?
I've had my 8 Plus for 5 months now. It is so fast and trouble-free, I don't see trading up for at least another couple of years, and I'm seriously considering making it a 5-year investment. My daughter and son-in-law have the XS Max and, although a definite step up, I agree with you that it's not enough of a step to justify a thousand dollar+ price tag.
