Are you still holding onto an iPhone 11 or 12 and wondering if it's finally time to upgrade? Or maybe you're looking at the new iPhone 17 and wondering if that 120Hz screen is actually worth the extra cash? In today's video, I have every base model iPhone from the iPhone 11 all the way to the latest iPhone 17 on my desk. We are doing a side-by-side breakdown to help you decide which one is the best bang for your buck in late 2025. We cut through the marketing hype and look at the real-world usage: battery life, thermal performance (looking at you, iPhone 12), camera quality, and software longevity with iOS 26. I’ll also explain why the iPhone 14 is a "value trap" and why the iPhone 13 might still be the budget king. In this video, we cover: The "Avoid" List: Why the iPhone 11, 12, and 14 belong in the past. The Battery Issues: Explaining the thermal drain on the iPhone 12 vs the marathon battery of the iPhone 15 Plus.   The 60Hz vs 120Hz Debate: Is the iPhone 17's ProMotion display a game changer? Camera Tests: 12MP vs 48MP and why the iPhone 15's zoom is a sleeper hit. Apple Intelligence: Why I honestly don't think missing out on AI features is a dealbreaker for most people right now. My Recommendations: Best Budget Choice: iPhone 13 Best Modern Value: iPhone 15 The Ultimate Upgrade: iPhone 17 Let me know in the comments: which iPhone are you currently rocking, and are you planning to upgrade this year? #iPhone17
