I am always a fan of leather case, sadly Apple only offer Fine Woven this time. Still searching for the right one π[2023] iPhone 15 Pro/Pro Max Discussion, The ultimate iPhone.

QUOTE(miyakochan89 @ Jan 21 2024, 11:28 AM) Hey guys, Iβm using a iPhone 13 Pro now. Been thinking to upgrade to 15 pro but am still holding off. If I ever purchase a 15 pro, i would trade in my phone directly. I am no finance Pro but here is my calculation.Am thinking out loud, but what do you all think in the FINANCIAL PERSPECTIVE, the best time to change a phone? Is it hold it for as long as it can function or trade in every 2-3 years. From what I can see, trading it off 2-3 years loses more money than holding it for as long as it functions - give or take 4 years. What do you think? Assuming you get your 128GB iPhone 13 Pro (old) from the first day it launched at RM4899: Total Cost of Ownership = Initial Cost of Old Phone Total Cost of Ownership = RM4899 If you trade in today and upgrade to 15 Pro (new), Total Cost of Ownership = Initial Cost of Old Phone - Trade-in Value + New Phone Cost Total Cost of Ownership = RM4899 - RM1785* + RM5499** Total Cost of Ownership = RM8613 Holding your 13 Pro has a lower total cost of ownership than changing to 15 Pro. The above is just purely based on my limited knowledge. I hope there are more professional answers that can explain better. *Checked at https://www.machines.com.my/pages/tradein **Price without any discount langstrasse liked this post

QUOTE(tzxsean @ Jan 21 2024, 01:29 PM) Future cost of ownership is very subjective and involve various factors that contribute to expenses over time. They can be the maintenance of the phone (battery, display), risk of accidents (drops, water damage), purchase of accessories (screen protector, phone cases This post has been edited by stxksy: Jan 21 2024, 03:50 PM |

QUOTE(tzxsean @ Jan 21 2024, 05:59 PM) the most straightforward way is just to estimate the future phone price only You are not wrong. When you have spare money to buy happiness, why not? otherwise it will not be a fair comparison with the other scenario but you cant estimate the value of happiness anyway I remember miyako back then hentam iPhone 15 Pro model during launch because of the heat issue etc Everyone is talking about overheating issue and it did uncomfortably heat up when initial startup but after that I never experience anymore on my 15 Pro Max. |

QUOTE(tzxsean @ Jan 21 2024, 06:34 PM) i also changed from 13 Pro to 15 Pro (motivated by Tokyo Trip) I sold my 13 Pro at RM3K too. With that and my company benefit, it completely covered for my 15 Pro Max managed to sell off my 13 Pro at RM3K .. so I just top up "a little" for 15 Pro Some more have surplus to get a car player with Carplay for my car |

QUOTE(tzxsean @ Jan 22 2024, 07:52 PM) this was my case before I got my Caudabe Sheath Thanks for the review! I am kinda sweaty palm guess aramid fibre is not really friendly to me.because this is aramid fibre, you will have stain/fingerprints on the back (depending on user) and need to wipe every now and then I like it since it's light and look classy How about Caudabe you are using? Does it feel like silicone or leather? |

QUOTE(Barricade @ Jan 26 2024, 07:57 AM) Sales suck. And also I believe their margin increases a lot compared to iPhone 14 that's why they can throw price. Just compare the retail price of iPhone 14 vs iPhone 15. Same in USD, increased in MYR. After discount is actually still expensive Honestly, how many are willing to spend RM6-8k for a phone. Not many. But it's great Shopee/Lazada can have discounts on new iPhones, benefit everyone that wants to own one. |
