Techilicious by Rajiv Makhni: Should you upgrade to the new Apple iPhones?

It was said that Steve Jobs deployed a reality distortion field every time he took the stage. He was able to mesmerise his audience with conversational hypnosis that could make normal products and features seem like a gift from the gods. The effect of that trick seems to be trickling down. Every year, at Apple’s annual pilgrimage new iPhone event, the audience seems to give a standing ovation and cheer at seemingly ordinary new features. This year was no different. With three new iPhones and the next-gen Apple Watch and iPad, the global audience reacted as if the Holy Grail had been found. The big question that needs to be answered (as it’s the most widely asked one of me for the last few days) is if the new Apple iPhones are truly worth upgrading to. Let’s take a simple, unbiased look into it.
