Why Upgrade?

For someone like myself who leases their phone, the time every year comes around to get a new one. This year I decided to upgrade from my iPhone XS to an iPhone 11 Pro. 

The phone itself is about the same size as my previous phone. However, I did need a new case because of the bulky three camera situation. The phone isn’t much different than my XS honestly and isn’t worth the upgrade if you don’t have to. 

However, the battery and camera may also be a huge selling point for you. The battery is much better. I went from charging my phone once a day at school and having it on the charger almost permanently once I got home to going until about 8 pm without needing to charge my phone. 

The new camera can be a game changer if you are into iPhone photography. The wide angle lens is next level. I also absolutely love the night mode on the iPhone and can’t wait to use it. Apple even added more settings for before you take the photo. 

Overall, I love my new phone and am very happy I upgraded.
