QUOTE(attw @ May 9 2023, 08:29 PM) Here's a shot on the Google Pixel 6a (my secondary aka work phone) vs the iPhone 14 Pro Max | Pic A | Pic B | | [attachmentid=11467300] | [attachmentid=11467301] |
So which do you guys think is which, and which one do you prefer? I posted the same in the Google Pixel 6 thread... will be interesting to see the results! P.S. Oh, by the way, this was the best banana leaf rice I've ever had - Puchong Mess! I kinda prefer it to Ganapathi Mess  I prefer pic A, also think its shot by 14 pro max

QUOTE(zuhaili87 @ May 10 2023, 02:10 AM) I’d prefer Pic A since the color is more lively. Usually Google did that, but surprise me anyway! QUOTE(laytiong @ May 10 2023, 09:39 AM) A is should be ip14 due to the natural bokeh QUOTE(dikae @ May 10 2023, 09:58 AM) I prefer pic A, also think its shot by 14 pro max  QUOTE(hobbes1001 @ May 10 2023, 02:56 PM) Prefer Pic A although both are pretty close. Looks like Google's computational photography is still tops! Pic A is from the Pixel 6A, folks!

First time in history Apple Iphones are being sold at discounted prices... Really tells a lot about the market in whole. https://soyacincau.com/2023/05/15/deal-appl...0-discount-xrs/This post has been edited by TOMEI-R: May 15 2023, 06:47 PM

Apple’s official prices haven’t changed though, just the resellers getting rid of excess stocks before the next iPhone with USB C ports launches in a few months.

The Pixel 6A is a midranger but with an excellent camera. Cant fault it for the price and specs. But a 6.1' screen? I cannot imagine how small it would be..... What I mean is sales must be not doing so well and hence the discounts offered. I don't think Apple condones such actions by it's dealer but looking at the discount offered, it has to be from them. Giving discounts like this will affect resale value of second hand unit on the market and this will ultimately affect those intending to upgrade when the new model comes out. But then again, inventory piling up in the warehouses will leave them no choice. This post has been edited by TOMEI-R: May 16 2023, 11:36 AM

got replacement for iPhone 14 Pro due to black screen of death today but seems like there's a scratch out of the box of the replacement unit. After dispute with Apple, they agreed to replace it again. The only problem now is to waste another 2 weeks to wait.

But then again, inventory piling up in the warehouses will leave them no choice. Well, the Pixel 6A definitely has many midrange defining qualities, I’ll share them in the Pixel discussion later. But overall, can’t say it’s a bad buy for under RM1.2k. I don’t think the dealers are allowed to do anything without Apple’s explicit (or implied) approval so maybe they are fully aware of the discounts, hahaha. But Apple’s resale value is not much better than most Android these days, but you’ll probably get more interests. Buddy of mine at this forum just sold off his very, very new iPhone 14 Plus at a massive loss a couple of weeks ago so yeah, I don’t buy the argument that iPhones have a much better resale value these days. It’s probably still marginally better, but only just.

Just ordered the Pro Deep Purple via Celcom since they're having some flash sale where the price of 256GB is the same as 128GB.
My first Pro ever finally, hopefully it doesn't come with the BSOD.
Current 12 is at 78% BH already. Not even 3 years old.

Received it yesterday morning, love the purple despite not being my favourite colour. Was busy copying everything from my 12, can't believe `120hz is so smooth and seamless, to my wife she can't see the difference lol.

Is it cheaper to buy the 14 pro max from switch or machines, or from Apple store online ?
