Cos I got the 64gb one for a good deal. Seeing how I dont really need 128gb decided to sell it off.

that's interesting. becos 64GB is a very very little storage nowadays given the camera capability of an latest iPhone.

i recorded an 4k 60fps video in high efficiency mode that is supposed to have the smallest possible file size. An 32 mins video already took 12.91GB. and i am using iPhone X. i believe the latest iPhone 12 with better camera quality the file size will be bigger.

minus off ur iOS itself system usage plus other usage, it is not even enough to take an 4 hours video.

Rarely take any videos with my phone so im still okay. Just text, social media, zoom meetings and occasional card games.

if that's the case, it will be ok. i am hoping for 1TB option for iPhone. i love to take photos and 4k videos with my iPhone.

I doubt that will happen though, Apple will be happier to sell its iCloud subscription instead and push the 2TB iPad Pros to more serious content creators.

i believe sooner or later iphone will get too. 512GB vs 2TB on iPad. iPhone storage option is pathetic now. haha. tongue.gif
good if it is this year. haha.

as for rhinoshield is relatively easy to take out now for 12 series as the rubber is way softer than previous model. uag plasma is very tight.
i just got my 12 mini, now already talk about 13 mini 😭

only around 3 months plus we can see the announcement of iPhone 13 already. Haha.

Iphone 12 mini 128gb is now selling at RM2979 at Machines website.

In the first place I plan to purchase Iphone SE 3rd gen 256gb that cost me RM2700++, but when I see Iphone 12 mini drop price, I change my mind and purchase 12 mini instead
*
Mini is a better indeed just that should probably go for 256GB mini.

I have a basic Ipad at home and I feel like purchase 256gb is too much.😂

When i'm at home, I usually use my Ipad instead of my own phone.

Do not see the relevant seriously. If u ask me. 256gb on iPad is overkilled especially for ur basic iPad.

Why I recon to go for 256gb minimum for iPhone Becos iPhone u will use it to take photos and videos. given the iPhones have improved in photos and videos quality over the years, the size of them will get bigger and bigger.

Buying a 128gb will limit the capability of u to take photos and videos especially videos. If you are taking 4K videos, call 128gb will become the limitation of ur iPhone soon.

Same apply to ur iPad, u will not use ur iPad to take photos or videos especially urs is basic iPad Becos the camera is not so fantastic. If u are telling me that u are using iPad Pro that has better capable camera and u do use it to take photos and videos, maybe u will need more storage but for ur case I am sure 256gb is totally overkilled. U check ur current usage u should be able to tell.

So if u asked me, ur choice of storage options for ur iPad and iPhone are totally opposite.
