I'd personally be waiting until the iphone 12 is announced in september because the 11 pro prices will then drop in price, especially second hand.
Finally decided to bite the bullet and look for a new phone, currently have the 6s, now 4 years old and long since used all of it's 16GB memory, lol.
Looking at the 11pro as it's not too big to fit into a side pocket, ( correct me if I'm wrong ), any suggestions as to where to get the best deal.

I’d recommend the new SE, not too big and ticks most boxes.
I would say if you need a phone now buy it now. As an apple fanboy I have often waited for the latest and greatest Models to depress the outgoing model only to be disappointed. Dont rule out buying on a data / mins plan. My wife’s Iphone was cheaper to buy that way.
I have an iphone X, its a big step up from a 6S and quite good value second hand now.
The new SE is a brilliant phone for the price, and the smallest iPhone you can still buy new.
I bought the original SE when they first came out and its been superb.
I fancy a phone with a larger screen now and will wait until September when the new I phones are released. Rumours have it that the I phone 12 will be offered with a 5.4” screen and it may well be that this will be my next buy.
I don't mind the physical size of the 6s, I'd just like a bigger screen size for my poor old eyes, lol.
I went from a nearly 4 year old 128gb iPhone 7 to an 128gb iPhone 11 128gb and it was a huge leap - the screen, camera and battery are so much better and easier to use. I wouldn’t bother with the pro - and many reviews say the same thing. I think the 12 will be delayed and when you stick them in a case they all look the same anyway!!

Just got an SE great value
I’ve had an 8 plus for nearly 3 years I think and it’s great. Far better from memory than the 6 I had before.
I do wonder though when jumping up models If they are that good, that advanced and that much better, or is it all sales spiel?
We bought the XR soon after it came out. The battery life is amazing but could do with slightly smaller form factor. So I may get the 12, depends on what features they have introduced.

I definitely think it depends on how many models you jump. I tend to keep my iPhone for 3-4 years and then move up to latest model. I’ve noticed a huge difference from 7 to 11, in terms of processing power. Everything is so much ‘snappier’ and smoother. The cameras are also a vast improvement.
Having said that the same processor is used in both the SE and 11, so really it comes down to screen size and camera as the main difference between those two.

I’ve got an imminent upgrade from my XR and am thinking of downsizing to either an SE or a 12, as I find the XR a bit too big similar to a previous poster.
The smallest 12 allegedly has similar overall size to 6/7/8/SE but full screen like the X onwards, so kinda feels like the sweet spot for me.
Used to be every second year to notice a difference. Now it's more like 3 or 4. iPhone launches are routinely referred to internally as "same Barbie, new dress".
