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

Buy from Apple and return within 14 days if it doesn’t suit your usage.

You mean Apple trade-in? Why not? They give you 14 days to do that. You can use your new phone first and they will only pick up the old iPhone later.

they pay for courier cost to come pickup?

I shared my experience up there. One thing I cannot recall now if the pickup date was chosen during I ordered or it came later. Later I shall see again but for sure need to choose a date for pickup.
Yes. You don't need to pay for anything.

so what colors are you all choosing for your iPhone 17? I had my eyes set on Sage but now suddenly I think I might go for White. Its been a very long time since I have a white iPhone lol. I dunno, I have to see them all IRL before I make a final decision. I have to say the pro line up colors are not too attractive for me. I dont like how it the colors are just too metallic and there is a two tone thing going on. Anyway this is about the 17 not Pro so ....

Just touch and saw the real phones today and I must say the only one that attracts me is the Air 😝
But price and specs not ngam. If only Air have the ultra wide or priced like the 17. I cant accept paying more for less

The colors at the back also look a bit weird for me. Some colors like white looks like the white protective sticker for the front glass lol- really ugly. It’s the texture I think or lack of.

A little update on my iPhone 17 purchase via Shopee Flagship store

Good news, they honoured my trade in value as I had declared according to the options given.
Got offered RM250 for iPhone 13 128GB + RM100 trade in bonus (shopee) . Apple official store offered mine for recycle, so the 350 is just a bonus for me  rclxms.gif
As mentioned, my phone is banged up with lots of micro scratches, few dents and cracked backglass, else functionality wise intact, zero water damage, camera works as intended.
Be that as it may, i love my ip13, it works(or worked) as intended with the exceptions of occasional warm with terrible battery drainage (77% battery health), surprisingly no battery bloating

Process itself is simple.

22/9 - Ordered
26/9 - Remobie called to arranged date and time for trade in collection which is today 29/9 ( orginally eta was around mid october )
29/9 - The Remobie representative called like 3 hours prior to confirm my availability, came to inspect earlier than appointed time, inspection wise took around 15mins, nothing technical, simply checking the basic functions, signed the agreement paper with IC, got my new phone on the spot
*
So they delivered your new phone and collected your trade-in phone at the same time?

When will we see the first “sale” for iphone 17? Last year it was on 10/10. You get a 5% discount. This year what do you think? 🤔

Damn Tim Apple put slower memory chips for all 256gb iPhone 17 except the Air.
Yes base 17, 17 pro, and 17 pro max 256gb models are using slower flash memory chips compared with 512gb and above

Guys RM300 off for Air & 17 Pro !!! Unfortunately not applicable for base 17. Besides they are out of stock for most of the base 17 variants.
I didnt buy iphone but bought an Apple Watch 11 instead with 9% off plus RM200 worth of shopee coins -not bad at all..... rclxms.gif
