So excited for my first step into the apple ecosystem.
Gotten my self
iphone 14 pro
Watch series 7
Airpods pro

Any other accessory or tips for the first time user? Hopefully the port over from Android to apple is seemless.
Can't wait to unbox it this Saturday!

For me i will change to pro, now i using 12 pro max plus case , like brick on my hand, 14 pro max heavier than 12 pro max  doh.gif

I believe pro version normal usage can than one day due A16 bionic power efficiency better than previous two model

IP 14 pro had a slight increase in battery capacity compared to 13.. so hopefully it can last the whole day!

Need a smaller size phone with a powerful camera.
I always gotten the ultra,OnePlus pro and other flagship android.
but it's gotten bit bulky for me. Therefore after evaluating will try the iPhone pro due to its 6.1" size but same powerful camera.

Just worried about few things now.
Porting of apps n data. Is the WhatsApp android to iPhone available yet?
Apple care, scared it will cause a bomb if the screen breaks
Storage space - I only gotten the 256, in my current phone I only used 170/256. So hopefully enough space else would need to subscribe to icloud

Currently in same situation as you with porting over from android to IOS.
Had been using android phone for almost 10 years now.
Porting data is really convenient now for WhatsApp's as it can be done via Move to iOS apps.
Just download that and use it during phone setup.

your usage is quite high considering for 170Gb now, i would suggest either cut down usage or upgrade to 512.
I will be getting 256Gb as my usage only at 128gb so far.
I do plan on using the Family plan 1Tb one, so no concern with the phone data. (Shared with family)

I'm keeping my old phone so will only need to port WhatsApp into iPhone. Others like images n videos will be in my secondary phone. I think thats should be enough.
Will see have already placed the order for 256 GB haha.
Worse come to worse, I'll get the iCloud subscription if needed

The deep purple looks very similar to light black under darker lighting.
Much darker than I expected

Im in the same situation as well! Has been using android (Samsung) since smartphone era, this is my first time going into IOS ecosystem. Super excited and looking forward to the ecosystem. My current phone is S10e and the battery is dying, need to charge 3 times at least per day. So i think 14 PM will be a very big upgrade for me. Hope this 14PM can last me at least 4 - 5 years.  :thumbsup:

So I have setup my iPhone yesterday, the transition of WhatsApp from Android to iOS was quite seemless. I used this app called "move to IOS" which will allow you to move your pictures, WhatsApp messages, contacts and afew other configurations into apple.

This is done during the initial setup of the iPhone, even before you do iCloud ID setup.
To move around 20gb of images and WhatsApp took around 2-3 hours..

There was a popup to bring all my android apps along, but I wanted a clean start and to only download apps that I would really use.
Now my storage space is at 44.3/256 GB
Guess I have quite alot of space and don't need iCloud storage

As for the phone, the purple is abit like grey under most lighting situations.
First impressions is it is very heavy compared to my previous one plus 8.
Much thicker and heavier.
Using YouTube seems to have surprised me as the speakers has a "6D" surround sound ish properties.
Have not able to try the camera yet which is the main selling point for me, but hopefully soon.

Battery life is quite average, from 5pm-11.30pm
100 to 34% within that time using it almost full time, setting up phone/Spotify/YouTube/netflix and etc
Maybe another patch will improve the battery life.

On the display is bothering me abit, feels like alot of battery is being used for the ondisplay, I will turn it off today to check the battery life
