You've made really good progress for almost 3 months. I actually like the difference in densities in your sides since the lighter coverage is really high up. You still have a lot of younger hairs [mostly transitional] in the sides and over the next couple months, some should show terminal.

At this point, I would say you have a rather natural look with stache growing over the lips, dangling hairs in the connectors, sideburns reaching toward the ears and neckline showing mixed hairs from the side views.

While this is certainly a good look on you, alternately you could show a very intentional looking beard by carving a smooth neckline, trimming the sideburn hairs just on the edge, training the stache horizontal and brushing the sides.  I don't recommend any trimming for length, just for edging.

Either of these two looks is quite acceptable... it just a matter of what you want it to look like and how much time you will spend on it. Either way, keep growing and showing.
