seriously i was using iphone x for 5 years before i switched to iphone 14 pro max. i find the weight is acceptable. it is not too heavy for me at least. (but of course may not be for everyone).

it has 2 x optical zoom (not using telephoto lens but cropped from the main camera 48MP lens) but it is damn useful than 3x optical zoom by the telephoto lens that i hardly use.

Yeah. But does not look nice to be frank.

Seriously I do not find real gold will look nice on an electronic device, but rose gold like what they have previously for 6s should be better. They can find the netter kind of rose gold colour for the pro iPhones.

I think they do the opposite. They know that yellow is the worst selling colour so this round they come out this colour so much later Becos they know that the ppl who buy will be very little anyway.

Buying a new iPhone now while new one is coming in September?

how much?

New one is coming up. Of course the old iPhone 14 will get discount. But if the price is not more than 20% off the price. It is more worth it to get the iPhone 15 but this is assumed that price of 15 is not increased during its announcement next month.

True also. But as it said, if the price is not 20% cheaper or more it may not be so worth it. Given that one brand new iPhone can easily use for 5 years or longer. Buying an one gen older iPhone u also lost 1 year of usage for cheaper price.

Exactly it is for older ppl, then iPhone is the best choice. Easier to use, lesser prob, more reliable.

Android is a no no no.

i was referring to the price one paid vs the usable amount of years.

iphone can use for 5 years minimum and get update for at least 6 years as of now.

so given the price is 100%, divide by 5, one year is 20%.

so if u get iphone 14 now at 80%, nothing u earn except that u pay cheaper without all the extra new features + 1 year of usage. this is why i said, unless one can get more than 20% discount of the iphone 14 price, else it is not really worth it comparing to iphone 15.

but if one just simply wants to get iphone 14 becos of budget, so to pay cheaper (initial captical cost), yes.
however, ultimately, the total cost spent will still be the same over years becos one will need to change his iphone 14 earlier later comparing to iphone 15.

yup, with 5g capability is a plus. especially 5g access may already come with the latest phone plans or cheap to even begin with for prepaid, e.g. rm5/mo for yoodo.

Every year old iPhone sure will be replaced by new one.

But the usb-c for iPhone 15 makes it a better buy including the display as well and many more new features.

It is cheap now the price but may not worth it to opt for it due to the last iphone with lightning port which is gone for good.

How much? 256gb?

Exact price?

Price is ok indeed. More than 20% off the original price of

But by then the lightning accessories will be lesser and lesser.

Usb-c is still more convenient. I can just use my laptop charger to charge also while in office.

if u play mobile games on it or turn on AOD... surely it will drop till that...

those heavy users all have their 14 pro max battery capacity dropped till 89% only after 1 year of usage.

the battery capacity reduced significantly comparing to any earlier iphone models...

iphone 15 pro series will have the same issue.

She should just buy iPhone 15. Now also rm200 off at Shopee for iPhone 15 and 15 plus.

usb-c opens up a lot more new capabilities of iPhone. Certainly more worth it to get the latest 15 instead of cheap out on 14.
