I would prefer a smaller size phone so iPhone 13 mini is the one to go for me.

hahaha, yeah, plus you have to hope they don't run out of stock as it is discontinued which wasn't the case with the XR, Apple continued the XR even after the 11 was launched.

Hi, iphone 13 able to use up to 5 years without lag after always update IOS every year? usage is 70% web browsing, social media, youtube, waze, chat apps, lazada, shopee and so on. 25% gaming. 5% video and photo shooting. not sure 4GB ram can sustain in feature or not, scare phone will getting lag after update IOS 19-20 version in feature.

Pretty sure it'll be fine. My iPhone 6S (2GB RAM) can still do all you mentioned above well on iOS 14 (haven't update to iOS 15 yet) with the exception of gaming coz I don't game

Any recommendation where to preorder iPhone 13? Thinking to preorder from switch but scare too many ppl pre order. Looking for places tat can do instalment and most likely will get phone on launch day…..

Should be fine I guess?
Am still using my iPhone 7 and iPhone 8

Can try Machines,Senheng

Only concern is battery health, if below x number then gotta change, otherwise shouldnt be a problem

Senheng/SenQ allows instalments but getting one on launch day can be tricky, their record in that respect isn’t stellar. But if you’re aiming for a 13 and not the Pro model and you have some flexibility with the colour choice I think there is a high chance you’ll be able to get a unit from whichever store you choose.

Mrwhosetheboss just dropped the battery test of the new iPhones.

Even the mini managed to get over 6 hours sot which is impressive

Just saw the video. Indeed impressive. Even better than regular 12. I might preorder 13 mini.

I can't go back to screen smaller than 6 inch lol.

The normal 13 is the right size for me.

The 13 Mini outlasting the regular 12 really is interesting, but looks like the 13 Pro Max is the one to get for the best battery life of the lot!

Good to know that. Next week can preorder the 13 mini 🤣

She is always excited... and review all colours...

"lag". I find that this word is subjective to every person. 1 seconds slow might consider as lag to some, while some said it's not lag.

To me, the 3rd year onwards it lags, as in it takes slightly longer to open apps. Scrolling may still be smooth. But launching apps and in app loading takes longer. If u don't understand what mean, go to any demo unit, compare a 3 or 4 older generation iPhone with the latest iPhone and do a speed launching test. Guaranteed u will see the difference.

btw, u mentioned shopee, if u are a heavy shopee user who always collect voucher, u will know that collecting voucher needs to be very very very fast. besides having a fast finger, ur phone needs to respond very fast. and this is where u cannot afford any lag.

Winning comment of this thread so far, hehehe…

My mum’s current iPhone 5S is probably the definition of lag for me. Takes 3-5 seconds to open/switch apps. Amazingly, Apple is still periodically releasing security updates for it.

actaully where is the recommended channel for pre-order on 1-Oct? official apple site? or Machine or Switch?

Hi wanna ask..
I have a 9.5 month baby, how much memory is sufficient? Considering daily taking photo and occasionally video of her.

I m using iphone SE (2016) till now, 64gb
