Thanks guys for all your help. Since I do have a few more months to save, I think I'll wait for the 13. I really hope it has touch ID along with face ID. I'm looking forward to more internal memory, and a faster processor. For some reason, my bottom speaker on my iPhone 8 just kind of died and stopped working. It will be nice to have a bit louder speaker. One of my cousins has an iPhone 11 and I was surprised at how good her speaker actually sounded when playing music.
