QUOTE(lazyman@home @ Oct 2 2021, 09:04 AM) Hi guys, wanna ask how’s iPhone 12 Pro vs iPhone 13. As I being offered an used iPhone 12 Pro 256gb with about 10 months warranty at around iPhone 13 256 price. Not sure which one to get. If the condition is good, you may consider getting the 12 pro.

GSMArena has dropped its review of the iPhone 13 https://m.gsmarena.com/apple_iphone_13-review-2325.phpIn conclusion, there really is no need to get it if you’re on the iPhone 12.

Basically, if you wanted longer battery life and better camera go for 13 pro / pro max, if you never needs those, stick with iPhone 11 or 12 still better way. For my case, upgrade from XS max due to slightly lagging, maybe due to went for iOS 15, is the best reason, other than that stick with XS max still happy for it.

Ya ya, either go 13 Pro for the high refresh rate display or stick to the 12 - even the camera shows no substantial improvement from 12 to 13...

Get the base 13 if you value battery life . It's almost 20% better than 12/12pro

I have used iphone cases from UAG, Otterbox, Moment, Nomad, Spigen ….. Some are build like a tank for protection. Nomad and Moment have some elegant cases. It really depends on your preference. For my Iphone 13 mini, I have ordered Ringke Fusion and Apple Leather case…. as of now 😀

Lazada and Shopee pre-order for Iphone 13 128gb all sold out.
Anyone know when will iphone 13 be available to buy direct in future at either stores? Need wait a few months? If based on past new iPhones like when 12 first released?
Still thinking whether to buy iphone 12 or 13 since difference in price only 500 or so. Iphone 12 I can buy now many places selling, but 13 need wait for Apple to sort out its logistics.

The sim we're using now is the smallest version already. Telcos cut it until no longer can cut. Unless in future got smaller sim manufactured by them. So far no news of such new sim.. So sure can use in new new iPhone. Edit: just did a search for 5g sim card but don't see any local telcos doing that yet This post has been edited by Davidtcf: Oct 4 2021, 08:51 AM

In general the interest for the regular 13 here seems tepid compared to the 13 Pro and Pro Max - or maybe everyone just prefer to post in that thread, hahaha...
