I wonder if 512GB is enough if they bump up the camera resolution (I'm coming from 128gb, and Apps alone already took most of the storage that i always need to clear whatsapp)

QUOTE(GamersFamilia @ Jun 17 2025, 04:33 PM) Subscribe to icloud+ , it will solved the storage issue 🚨 200GB, 11.90* 60 = Rm720, I'll put this aside first since I'm going for 512GB, I'm actually ok with 256GB, but not for wifey, she need more. QUOTE(westlife @ Jun 17 2025, 07:45 PM) quite pointless to connect external storage for more space. Not really pointless, It's also an option to consider. Useful if you plan to backup all things on your old phone, and start anew on the new phone.one should just spend more for more storage iphone at the start. even iphone can extend the storage with usb-c external storage but obviously it is not feasible to hold a external storage together with iphone to take photos/videos. But like you've mentioned there, it's not feasible especially if you need another device to manage it. Maybe useful if you can do it only using the phone. External drive also have their flaws, Thumb drive easily misplaced, and SSD/NVME may lose data overtime if you didn't connect it for a long period of time. QUOTE(chongkiatz @ Jun 18 2025, 06:08 AM) It might be not so convenience, but its a solution , might not suitable for you but might be suitable for someone 😊 not everyone was rich enough to spend on icloud and extra rm1k or rm2k for storage , or maybe someone feel not worth for the price and looking for another option , like the external magsafe SSD also another solution but with higher price , your money your choice , nothing right or wrong is this world , it always just a suggestion and optional to choose 😉  Thanks bro, I'll consider all options. 512GB probably is a must just for wifey. I'll probably get the 256GB + external drive/icloud subscription. |

QUOTE(rageLE @ Sep 30 2025, 01:52 PM) I had to backed my phone up prior. Hmm can we temporary increase iCloud storage? i don't think my free iCloud storage can hold everything when i backing up.I did it via iTunes as well as iCloud but restored it using iTunes I did however made a mistake on backing up whatsapp on iCloud, I did not know it would require a password (of which I dont even remember setting up) or a 64 encryption key, i had always logged into my whatsapp via passkey so i thought it would be a non-issue. So my years of whatsapp is lost, gone just like that Else, restoring everything was a breeze |

Yes 2. as I could recall, no, the voucher wasnt even available to me, so cant help u there  thing is i was so used to icloud backup, i didnt even thought of the possibility of it requiring a password/64 key pass since i never had this issue, also i had to reset my phone prior inspectioni had to reset prior trade in collection so this option wasnt viable for me, i thought i got it covered with icloud since it never prompted me for password/64 key before else, lesson learned, memories lost |
