QUOTE(N9484640 @ Sep 12 2025, 10:49 AM) not worried about suitable or not - 100% sure suitable wan...lol but save quite a lot of money for just less one tele cam  btw i tried to trade-in via apple site, it gave me Rm2200 for my 15pro. I think second hand market around 2700 Second hand market could be higher but you have to sell it yourself and probably dealing with fussy buyers. |

QUOTE(GamersFamilia @ Sep 12 2025, 10:04 AM) More likely 17 air followed by 17 pro max, it just my prediction 😎🔥🚀 Personally think unlikely. Most likely 17 pro max > 17 pro > 17 > Air  Look at the post counts to date between two threads can tell the clear winner. QUOTE(N9484640 @ Sep 12 2025, 10:23 AM) should I downgrade from 15 Pro 128gb to 17? I feel 17 Pro is asking for too much money and 17 is good enough. Or maybe change to 16 Pro? I be only missing the telephoto.... opinions please If u are not bother by the 4x and 8x, 17 is certainly better choice in terms of value over money spent. QUOTE(attw @ Sep 12 2025, 10:33 AM) I still feel like most folks will pick 17 Pro Max over the Air, haha… but we’ll see… Yes totally agreed.

QUOTE(fruitie @ Sep 12 2025, 11:23 AM) It is always Pro Max has more buyers anyway. Certainly. this has not changed since pro max first appeared. Air I am sure it is still quite niche. But this round I want to be in the niche group though. |

It certainly is something different from Apple - but not as much hype as when the released iPhone X, hahaha… |

It could be different for the Air this round. Unless Apple makes it obsecenely expensive. Then it would be a different story. This post has been edited by TOMEI-R: Sep 12 2025, 01:03 PM |

QUOTE(westlife @ Sep 11 2025, 10:55 PM) iCloud+ 2TB RM 44.90/month, pay for less than 2 years already can use the rm1k spent to buy 2x more storage which will be helpful for taking a lot of photos/videos. i find it quite a lot to spend and not to mention it is ongoing cost. less than 2 years icloud + 2TB monthly = 2x storage size already. seriously one thing i never try yet is to backup to itunes with iphone 15 pro and above that has usb 3.0 speed. maybe it will significantly faster than usb 2.0 that makes the itunes backup not a hassle? as mention itunes backup only 1st time backup takes long time while subsequently will be fast depending how much data u increased since the previous backup. If the usb 3.0 on iphone 15 pro and above is really faster for itunes, one can easily backup on daily basis, which once u reached home, u just plug for it to backup for a short while. Don’t need iTunes. Just plug SSD with USB C straight into iPhone. |

Also another part is I am not hardworking enough to do constant backups to my laptop. I have to admit. If you pay for iCloud, it’s so seamless and easy. So you get that. QUOTE(westlife @ Sep 12 2025, 04:02 PM) i always keep photos in my phone but i do regularly full backup (at least once a month or two or so). Nowadays I use a USB C drive with 128GB. Super easy. |

I be only missing the telephoto.... opinions please Ask yourself are u heavy user and game? If yes , the VC and full alluminium body might help on release the heat , if u are not heavy user , the telezoom + VC might be not justify the extra rm1500. I will only go 17 pro if the price below rm5000 , anything more than that isnt worth. Apple very clever this round , kill the 128gb of PRO , make the gap diff only rm500 for pro & max , and i doubt most of the people consider the PRO might just add-on the extra rm500 for bigger battery and forgot about the size 😆 (ala beza rm500 only ma , then u got better battery life and big screen , direct go pro max la) that mind 😂 This post has been edited by chongkiatz: Sep 12 2025, 04:26 PM |
