If the iPhone 17 doesn't get ProMotion, I won't be upgrading my iPhone 12

In 2020, I bought an iPhone 12 to replace my aging Pixel 3 , and nearly five years later, I'm still using that same device because it works fine and Apple has yet to bring the feature I want most on a regular iPhone: a ProMotion display. If you're not familiar with the company's marketing lingo, ProMotion is its way of describing a high-refresh rate display. Apple introduced ProMotion with the iPhone 13 Pro . Since then, every Pro model has offered a 120Hz refresh rate display with the ability

It's Almost Time to Choose: 8 iPhone 17 Pro Max Rumors That Might Convince Me to Switch
