It's a nice phone, but I miss the click to silence feature the previous models have. Now, to silence the phone you have to hold the side button in. I don't like this feature. It's cumbersome.
Wife and I upgrade every 3-4 years pending our needs and this is a huge upgrade from our iPhone 14's. Thought I'd hate the AOD but turns out it was turned on and I've never felt the need to turn it off and have now grown used to it. Camera is amazing, as usual, but we're also used to non-Pro cameras. Battery life is amazing when you close apps and turn off background app refresh.
Post set up the apps freezes and I have to restart the phone. Other than extra hard drive space not significantly different than iPhone 13 Pro
I would recommend this to a friend!
