There's still their local tax and state tax where it varies by location and state. Since our's is the same everywhere, our tax is included in the price.

I felt like they put even more focus on the phone’s cinematography skills though…
Very steep jump in price compared to the older Mini and too close to the new iPad Air price for me. I’d pick the Air unless you really want the small size.
Just do it bro. Don’t think too hard, Hahaha…
You’ve been waiting for this I still can’t utilise 128GB in a year of ownership…
Yes, already discontinued on Apple’s official website

I don't see that much of an upgrade from the normal 12 to 13 - no high refresh rate display as well. If you're into photography/cinematography then the 13 would be an excellent choice, otherwise if you can get a 12 on a good deal, I'd say go for the 12 - it's a great phone albeit the battery life is inadequate if you're a heavy user and have limited access to charging points during the day.
Yeah, I thought that with the EU putting pressure on Apple to standardized the ports they might give in sooner rather than later. I do have a number of lightning accessories too so I'm not too bothered about it that much
Good points. Anyways, I'm waiting for maxis to release their plans now. Have you decided if you will upgrade, bro?

Ya, I used the 12 Pro Max for a while, felt kinda hefty. It’s fine when we’re all WFH and not going out much but since we are opening up more these days probably something to consider when choosing between the 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max.
I’m sure I have an old 5W charger somewhere

Ya, I feel the same way about new phones these days too. The fact that the prices are so high isn’t helping.
Ya, I also wonder how much difference the 0.25mm makes? 0.25mm is not something we can see with our naked eye
Did they offer a price cut on the 12 Pro?
For me the worst part of the whole WFH thingy is no chance to test the camera, especially the night modes and what not. No mood to take photos of my taman

12 pro 256GB with MOP 128? if yes, you get cheated lol
3986 for 12 pro is the price after subsidized last year during launch for those sign up MOP 128

unless your MOP plan is cheaper @ 98 monthly, or your phone is bigger storage 512GB

12 pro 256GB RRP is 5399, usually maxis subsidy 1400 when sign up with MOP 128

if above assumption is true, you buy something not worth at the day new iPhone just launch

with the MOP 128, after subsidized become 3986, you can get 13 pro 256GB three weeks later

refer below for last year maxis 12 pro launch pricing for subsidized phone

Aiyo...that salt rub in her deep wound to reduce the pain though, tell yourself 12 pro and 13 pro is only minor diff...if it helps
same here, first thing pops in my mind is the battery drain on a constant 4K video shoot...ouchs..
