128 really a wastage one, ios + system probably taken about 10GB. Which left not much, u suka suka take some photo or video of your family/love one....+ app now size is not minimalistic one.....
256 should be the minimum....

Can't imagine last time how I survive with 64gb iphone xD
*
My iPhone has to start with 256GB that also because I have a 2TB iCloud, otherwise I may need a 1TB phone as I take a lot of photos. laugh.gif I still have around 110GB internal storage left now, so I will still buy 256GB for 17 Pro Max.
My previous iPad Mini 6 was 64GB. laugh.gif The current iPad Mini 7 is 128GB but I only use it for entertainment purposes, so it is still sufficient for now. Definitely not enough for daily driver device.

wow, i normally backup all video to my laptop. last time only sub 50gb, now sub 200gb one (enough for me already) with 512gb.

I also have 128gb ipad mini, this one is acceptable la, because really for light use. Like reading/browsing purpose. If wan heavy usage better buy ipad pro  brows.gif
*
I wanted something like 1TB iCloud but unfortunately from 200GB, the next leap is 2TB. laugh.gif
I went to a lot of concerts in the past, so I kept taking photos/videos and there was once it ran out of storage during a concert and I quickly upgraded my plan to 2TB on the spot. laugh.gif Now using 650GB.

2TB quite pricey but it's actually same price like Apple One individual which i subscribed now  sweat.gif

RM44.90 - Apple One Individual (50GB iCloud + Music + TV + Arcade) where i only utilise iCloud and music technically
*
Yes, that's why I don't want to subscribe Apple One because 50GB and I don't use the rest. For Apple Music, I am subscribing to the student plan, so it's cheaper.

You should since 14P is still a good phone.

It needs to be lighter due to the improved hardware.

That I'm not sure, but who knows, it is cheaper this year due to a stronger MYR? laugh.gif
We will know in a month time.

Beyond titanium: why aluminium wins

The iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max are expected to replace the titanium frames of prior versions with aluminium, based not only on engineering considerations, but also environmental ones. As GF Securities analyst Jeff Pu noted, aluminium production has a significantly lower carbon footprint than titanium production, approximately 67 per cent. The move fits nicely with Apple's aggressive 2030 goal to have every product carbon neutral.

Though titanium has a stronger strength-to-weight ratio (6:1 compared to aluminium's 4:1), aluminium has its advantages too. Notably, aluminium has higher thermal conductivity (237 W/m·K), allowing it to dissipate heat better. In our current time when smartphones serve as gaming consoles and production studios, thermal management is exponentially as important to keep performance sustainable.

The choice of aluminium also reduces device weight by 10 to 15 grams. This opens space for larger batteries and advanced camera modules, enhancing user experience without sacrificing portability.

-- I prefer titanium to aluminum because it has a premium look. If Apple hadn't initially introduced it, then people wouldn't complain if it were "downgraded". laugh.gif

Btw, does last few years iPhone Malaysia launch has stock issue?

As in keep out of stock for first month.

I know China has no issue cause those "yellow cow" mostly rugi business as per news.
*
Yes, usually if confirm getting it then should pre-order once it is announced. Otherwise, if you are waiting for ready stock to buy right away, the first few weeks will be tough to get, especially the special color.

Cause might order using telco plan - CelcomDigi Family Plus under Celcom One Pro/Ultra on the Easy360 package

Need see the device plan discount pricing first too.

And Family Plus - RM26.5 (SST inclusive) after 50% off
*
Then the plan will be out once it is ready for pre-order, you can see whether it is worth. Maybe buying from Shopee/Lazada/TikTok Shop later is cheaper, if can wait.

If based on last year memory, i recall the discount is like RM1k+ for Family Plus plan on iPhone 16 Pro / Pro Max using 36 months contract.

Since i will be using 36 months using CC instalments if to purchase from those store like senheng / harvey, probably will just grab CelcomDigi's for instant discount (in monthly based)
*
My sister got almost 1k discount when she purchased 15P, 7 months later. laugh.gif But if you are using that much of data or bill paid by company, then worth it.

My first iPhone - 12PM was also bought from Digi but I realized I didn't use that much and it seems like a waste, after that I didn't bundle with plans anymore.

Yea, asal telco base plan cheap, device on telco contract with discounted price = welcome

Better than RRP with 36m CC instalments
*
I think another reason is 36 months CC installment is too long for me. laugh.gif
Anyway, choose whatever suits you, so long you get to enjoy the phone too. laugh.gif

Just slowly pays the rest as that "cost" already gain back from other investment from before dy

Not about that for my case, it is I want to cancel the card but I cannot unless I pay off everything if no early settlement penalty.

Too many rumors, too overwhelmed with the information. laugh.gif I guess I will just wait till its official announcement. biggrin.gif

Suddenly here and there being debunked but I still want to believe that the orange color is real this time. laugh.gif
