For wireless charging 15w still ok and acceptable 🙈
*
because u never try fast wireless charging so u will say 15w is acceptable , and also u only have 15w to use biggrin.gif u got no choice


people who have try fast charge wont say 15w wireless charge is enough or acceptable actually haha , dont take the words "we dont need fast charge , 15w is enough" , it's not because u dont need , is because apple doesnt give u , accept the fact tongue.gif


It just like apple give u 120hz of refresh rate on Pro model , will u say u dont need it actually and then , you tune down to 60hz in the setting? No right laugh.gif

Trust me , human is greedy animals , there is never be enough and we will always request for more rclxm9.gif especially for a 4 trillion worth of company , there is nothing wrong for consumer to request and fighting for more better spec , if they stil selling you yesterday technology in today with the same price and consumer feel Happy and Enough , then really something wrong laugh.gif

Care to explain more 🤔

the Apple care doesnt cover 100% of part , if something accidently break , u stil need to folk out some money to exchange it , for me the Apple Care is dumb if u putting case + screen protector on your phone. If only it cover 100% only i willing to reconsider it.

the RM900++ can get u a tons of super good case + screen protector tongue.gif

For apple care plus you still need to pay the service fee , rm139 for screen and back glass , rm469 for others .. Just like you mentioned , if we pay rm949 plus we got cover 100% then its worth it to extend the warranty , i wont think twice for it .. With that amount of money i can invest lots of stuff for my iphone 🧐🥰
*
yes bro , spend on other magsafe accessory , power bank , AR screen protector lagi best rclxm9.gif , what if ngam2 Apple Care expired , then only ur screen having problem , izit u stil need to folk out RM1799 for the screen? Plus the RM949 apple care u pay before , the amount of spend will be even higher rclxub.gif

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)
*
128gb = anxiety
256gb = ngam ngam only but good combo with cloud
512gb = comfortable Worriless
1tb = can selfie from morning to night , snap whatever u want biggrin.gif

But if u want to save up your money for bigger storage , the sandisk Ultra Dual Drive 3.1 type C actually work very well.

quite pointless to connect external storage for more space.

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.

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 😉

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.
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.
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.
thumbsup.gif 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.

Actually for daily usage , rarely u will shooting and video alot , i believe u do video/picture on whatsapp/IG more than turning on your camera to actually snap , what i mean was majority consumer usage unless your job needed for alot of camera usage.

Most of the time when we will start to found the lack of storage? The answer is on vocation, outstation , or especially travelling , easily hit hundred of video and thousand of picture. So what my friend actually do is shooting as much as video and picture they can , then they pick the great and best for IG story , after this will make some memories video to IG ,after done everything , the travelling folder will just move out from phone to Hard drive or PC to keep , anything need to refresh back can always refer back to their own IG story / Video post. It also will make your Phone album look more clean , imagine u want to find back some working photo on top each time , u have to scrolling over the thousand travelling picture sweat.gif , if travel twice yearly? Then will have extra more picture to scrolling , can try to learn how to minimize the usage of storage is good too for long run biggrin.gif


Bigger storage is good , but imagine if something shit happen on your phone and u dont backup frequencly , all your 500GB 1TB picture/video will be gone rclxub.gif so learn to backing up ur data regulary also very important.


So i think its quite ok for those who dont wish to spend too much money on storage (as iphone upsize storage is really pricy compared to android phone) , either spend on icloud or HDD for long run. If 1 day 1TB iphone also can't satisfy you , then how? doh.gif keep on boosting iphone storage also not a solution for a long run laugh.gif

Aiyoyo, only 2900mah ? 8am start using 12 pm battery 🔋 KO ? Need to charge how many times per day like this? What a joke man this apple 🍎🍏

Iphone 17 air is design for different purpose people , some people they just using for light usage , that why the air only have 1 camera for people not too heavy on photography, for people only use for social media and replying text , as long as can go out 9am and back home 6pm stil left 10-15% , then its more than enough for them , if u are heavy user , for sure u will skip the air and looking for Pro Max.

Iphone 17 air should be aim for very specific group , since it have only 1 camera, people who purchase it should be not very care or not heavily taking video or photo with this phone , basically this just a daily driver that aim light weight for replying email , ,msg and some basic social media , reading news , which can surpass 1 day usage or might need to recharge in the middle , 2800mAh should take a short time for charge too if it come with 30watt charging speed.

This is the answer from chatgpt , stil usable if can fully charge within 30min if u ask me.

So stupid. Should just make the phone thicker in the first place.

If this abysmal battery size rumour turns out to be true, then I’ll be very angry they decided to replace the regular 17 Plus with this Air nonsense. My mum, after years of insisting on small phones (she currently has a 13 mini) has finally decided to embrace large phones because she’s sick of charging often and has started watching more media on her phone. Now she wants a big screen and long battery life. A non-Pro Plus model would have been a great gift for her, but since Apple decided to kill it, my only option will be to spend more on the Pro Max.  doh.gif

u can get the 16 plus while stock last , very good price now.

Really? I didn’t read the whole spec sheet yet. You mean actual physical focus length switching (like in a periscope zoom) or just digital cropping?

QUOTE(westlife)
battery life to be fair only 3 hours lesser than iphone 17 = i find it acceptable, given how thin it is.

I’m buying for my mum, who only changes phones every 3-4 yrs. long term battery degradation is also a concern. Such a shame they killed the Plus. Looks like I’ll need to spend big and get her a Pro Max this year.
*
why not get the 16 plus at discounted price? Stil a super good phone with super battery life.


QUOTE(oldlady94 @ Sep 10 2025, 10:38 AM)
is it worth it to upgrade from 15 pro max to 17 air?
*
Unless your main concern was the size and weight , other than it was look like a downgrade for me doh.gif , are u sure u going for this move? I rather u change to the iphone 17 than the AIR. If u coming from 15 Pro Max.

I did consider it, but even if my mum cannot see the difference, gifting someone a screen refresh rate from the jurassic period just feels wrong to me.  blush.gif

If your mum previously using 60hz phone , i dont think she will feel the different , and for old people , the refresh rate might not be the main feature for them , what they want is BIG screen plus GOOD battery and possible a little light weight.

For me , Pro Max will be overkill for parent , unless your parent was very high tech person nod.gif But if u can afford it , why not right biggrin.gif

I didn’t realize it was the A19 Pro chip in the Air and not the regular A19 one till I watched the keynote just now, haha… Well, they claim it to be more efficient so the battery may last longer - but I agree with most of predictions that the battery life won’t be as good - you can’t escape the law of physics, haha laugh.gif
*
Name A19 Pro but less 1 GPU core than the A19 pro in the pro/max 🤦

I think the need for extra one charge in the middle of day is fair enough.
