Looks like the changes are pretty incremental--slightly better screen, slightly better camera hardware, and 5G radio. I guess the real question is whether T-Mobile would offer a free iPhone 13 (or whatever comes next) with iPhone 11 trade-in; or a free iPhone 14 with iPhone 12 trade-in.
I would wait for the 12S/13 at the end of the year.
My 12 Pro 256 is a great phone, and with ATTs $850 trade-in credit it was a no-brainer. But the 12S/13 [the Pro models at least, if not the entire range] is going to have a 120hz screen, under-glass touch ID, slightly better cameras, a faster processor, and a slightly bigger battery, and a smaller notch. All in the same package. Well worth waiting a few months for IMO.
