I would not characterize myself as excited, but I am still using an old 6S, who's time must be coming, so I'm on the hunt now. Truthfully, what the hunt has revealed is that out little devices are hitting an inflection point in technology, where a version increment doesn't really mean that much. It's not just iPhones or any phones, but all of our pocket gadgets as well as our desktop gadgets. Now, we're in an era where my 6S does nearly everything that a 15 does except shoot 64 MP images, which I don't really need.
As we draw close to the physical limits of our technology and the limits of what we know how to do with it, we need more hype to convince us to go out and spend a grand for something that isn't that much different than what we already have. Apple is pretty good on hype, but also pretty good on delivering decent products. It's amazing to me, having been in this since the days when people sweated bullets about desktop computers and their specs, that Apple continues to chart the course that everybody else is following.
