finally the ProMotion can justify why one should go for pro.

iPhone is never part of apple student discount, right?

Same dilemma here. As I use my iPhone on a 3 year cycle, my current X is long overdue for an upgrade. However, if next year they introduce a notchless screen and switch to USB C, I’ll definitely feel I should have waited. sweat.gif

wah. nice to know that many are still using iphone X like me. it is a great phone actually. no slow down or whatever even after 4 years. thumbup.gif

Haha.. true to that. 60 hz is totally not acceptable now that it is 2021. More so when you are paying top dollar for a top spec'ed phone. ProMotion is the only way to go.  nod.gif

To use 60hz screens would be akin to watching HD videos when you already have 4k now. Unsatisfactory. laugh.gif
*
actually to watch videos, no matter HD or 4k, 60Hz is more than sufficient, because most movies are shot using 24fps = 24hz.

120hz screen only makes difference for UI or gaming.

would you guys go for the 128 or 256? read 128 does not support pro movie or something?

reason i am asking is because wife will get a IP13 PM for sure this year since her contract has ended. she thought of getting 128 but i am asking her to get a 256 instead.

currently she is using a IP8 for office and and 11PM for personal. She will be upgrading her IP8. Frankly 128 is enough for her, just that the Pro Movie thingy makes me wonder.

She i also asking me to get a 11Pro...hmm Samsung Note user here....

For Iphones I would put it at 5-6 years.

Hi, for 4GB ram can last for 5 years ? or pick the pro series 6GB ram is better ? normally usage is browsing social media, waze, youtube, google chrome brossing. less video and photo shotting. gaming 30%.
*
More than sufficient. SoC is the one that will decide the lifespan of the iPad more instead.

OMG, almost every YouTuber is paid review and especially MKBHD is too biased. As for Vincent Chong, he’s the most often criticize iPhone like TESTV as well with a more delicate way. Literally, you watched too much famous YouTuber and brainwashed by them.
*
there are youtubers who say good words for iPhones but there are also another group of youtubers purposely to say bad things about iPhones in order to gain views also. apple never needs the help from any youtuber to increase their sales anyway. As a contrast, it is youtubers who are making use apple products to gain views instead always.

ultimately, for iphones users, there are no other choice at all unlike android phones that one can choose from multiple brands.
in this case, it makes no difference whether the iphone is really good or bad since there is only one choice. for existing iphone users, no matter how, when it is time to upgrade, they will upgrade no matter how. in the end, whether the reviews are good or bad, i think all need to acknowledge the fact that it is still the best iphone ever to date that one ccan buy now.

well yeap....anyway 256gb is not enough sufficient for 4k peeps... considering 10 mins of video takes away about 100gb...its either 128 for average people or just go 512/1tb for people who needs it...biggrin.gif i'd take 256gb if i need the storage space though, not for 4k prores purpose...
more like upgrade every year since the first iphone hahaha..
*
certainly. 256gb is not enough. 512gb or 1TB is more ideal....

Honest question, what’s the difference between buying from official apple store and a reseller like machines? You still come out with the same devices.

And also we’re actually getting an apple store?
*
apple stores will have all the products displyed with all colours, even accessories with all colours you can also find in the store displayed.
this is something that you can never see from authorised dealers.
