I think these are rustic colors. Pastel is softer and more muted. laugh.gif
I like rustic for its aesthetic and earthy. laugh.gif

I think I'll have to go see hands on before jumping on the color. But i'm a case person... so it won't matter much if i just SLAPPP a case over it.

For me, I will always go for the special color for the model. laugh.gif Though that blue also looks nice. laugh.gif I will go for that orange one. biggrin.gif

You sure ah boss? SP very cheap only. RM10 can get... whatever story they say end up also scratch 1 la.
This feature alone not enough to go for Pro for me.

Don't see compelling reason leh. Especially vanilla 17 got 120hz liao

For photographers..they rejoice lah.. telephoto with 48mp
*
RM 10 quality is bad. tongue.gif Anyway, I will still use one screen protector la.

But I'm always a Pro Max user, won't consider anything lower than that.

Used to the screen size very hard to transition back. I felt that back then from note 4 to s5.

But now even normal iPhone so big (I kaki iPhone mini and kaki 1 hand use phone). I used 16 pro max 2 weeks felt it was too big and heavy, and take up a lot of space in my jeans pocket. Carrying a brick around. Very sad they don’t want to do mini anymore.

If they have a mini, I might get it for the form factor 😂🫢 but not worth it la, cause battery smaller you charge more, more cycles it degrade the battery faster.
*
Yes, difficult to transition back. Screen is one factor but the battery life is also important for me. Pro series also has better specs so it’s hard for me to get the vanilla version.

What specs matters to you that makes pro the right fit:
cameras on pro? Or the 120hz screen you can’t go non pro?

OLED was the biggest game changer for vanilla. Otherwise performance was not such a big issue for me due to my usage pattern. That’s why I’m going to try and skip this (which I will fail halfway due to backside itchy). My upgrade cycle was 3 years being the longest. Prior to iPhone 7 I upgrade every year.

I tried 16 PM because the allure of the Ti frame. Which is very nice and I do like it, just not ergonomic due to weight. 120hz didn’t do anything for my use case.
*
Cameras mainly as I use a lot for photography and of course the 120Hz screen now.

Yes, I don't even use the camera button on my 16 Pro Max and add another one on 17 Pro Max, seriously?

Doubt the orange will be so strong like in those leaked photos. Apple’s Pro line iPhones are usually quite muted (less saturated) in terms of colours. In terms of bold orange, personally I think the cheap RM1,200 CMF Phone 2 Pro is the best looking of all phones currently on the market.
*
I think it’s the aesthetic type of orange not those bright ones.

I am anxiously waiting for this year's iPhone. Hope no delays for the Malaysian market like my MacBook.

I waited so long for my M4 MacBook Air. Love the TRX Apple buy on the spot experience...

Anyway, a few weeks after I got my Mac I found out that my previous Mac was received on the same date April 11 exactly 10 years apart. Such coincidence. At that time it wasn't out for the Malaysian market yet but Apple allowed us to order early before the GST kicks in.
*
Last year no delay for iPhones in Malaysia. We were in the first batch, so this year will be the same.

Let's guess what's the expected price for the base model of 17PM. For 16PM - 256GB it was priced at RM 5999.

I do have an Apple gift card of RM 1150 to use, and I plan to trade in my current 16PM. Last year I traded in the 15PM 256GB for 3.7k. Since I have no plan to use the gift card on other stuff, I will just use it for the 17PM.

Since it's a gift card, come, GIFT me biggrin.gif  rclxm9.gif

I hope the price 256GB (and no more 128GB please) stays like current gen sweat.gif
RM5,999 or maybe lower thanks to USD depreciating - RM5,799
*
laugh.gif You slowly dream. tongue.gif I purposely keep it for the 17PM. biggrin.gif
Since 15PM, no more 128GB for PM. Of course, Pro still has 128GB.

Hopefully it will be cheaper and tariff supposedly doesn't affect 3C products, they better keep to their words.

Didn't know 15PM no more 128GB option, lol

And now Switch (Apple authorised) gonna have promo of RM299 battery exchange for 12,13,14 series in Sarawak from 11th August - 11th Sept
I am expecting it to be like September month  sweat.gif
Like after getting 17PM / 17P during September , transfer then go change battery for it as backup phone.

The 17 Pro will probably also be available from the 256GB model.
