8:43 you can sell a used iPhone 14 pro for 700$, and 11:31 you can buy a brand new iPhone 14 pro for around 635$. Are you trying to confuse me?

Don’t know how much you can buy it for but I sold mine at marketplace for $700, got a 15 Pro brand new for $750. Was no brainer for me.

[@drsilkman]

It's not the storage that personally concerns me, it's the battery life on my iphone 14 pro max. With every update, it gets progressively worse 🤬

[@D3great]

Bc your using your phone and your battery is degrading. My iphone 14 gets a good 7-8 hours a day without charging usually makes it through. Im on 17.5.1

[@claxcz]

i heard 14 early manufactured pro/pro maxes have faulty batteries

charge it all the way to 80% only and that could save your battery

I went from a SE3 to a 13 product red. Same. chip as the 14 and nicer colors than the 15. Plus I have a friend who bought the 15 pro in Blue which looks lovely. Rather than buy a fine woven case, he got a Sheildon Wallet case in blue leather. The phone sleeve can be detached from the wallet and put directly on a mag safe charger which is a brilliant idea. I just wish they did a similar style wallet for the rest of the Apple range.

[@Bckwod]

Iphone 15 colors are really good they are pale but theres no other iphone like them and it makes them look better than 14

[@leanit5756]

Arthur, how about addressing cel signal and iPhone selection? For those of us in rural areas it can be the number one important factor.

[@claxcz]

for me it was easier to decide since i only upgrade every generations apart usually 6-7 years so I got to go with the latest which would be 15 or 15 pro coming from X, then I have specific needs, instead of buying a dslr camera for photography/videography class, ill use this phone for most cases and borrow/rent a dslr in some cases. For storage, I survived the 64gb on Iphone X so 128gb is enough for me since I have lots of external drives and I usually store files on my macbook. Next is size, I don’t like bigger sizes so I am fine with 6.1, plus in pro models it’s way heavier compared to base models because of different materials in build so going bigger is going heavier and I don’t want that. Also, having a bigger screen for me is straining my fingers and I am just accustomed to having smaller or average sized phones, i don’t have small hands but i want to grip the phone well because I like to carry other things while still carrying phone. For battery, 8-10 hrs of basic use is more than enough for me that’s why I am also fine not opting for pro max given that the pro max will last you a bit longer. Lastly, budget, good to know my budget allows me to go for pro models and that’s how I decide which Iphone to choose. Now I am enjoying my newly bought 15 pro

[@MariusCristianCalcan-xx2pj]

follow the heart since my old iphone 13 pro was 256gb and running out of storage, i ve got 15 pro 1 TB, i will upgrade when memory becomes full again !

[@TheGeekGauntletPodcast]

Bought a IPhone 15 Pro and I am loving it.

[@CamMojave]

Bought my 13 Pro Max on contract for 2 years which is more than enough for me! Originally went for the 14 Plus but sent it back after finding out it was the exact same but with a lesser camera and no 120hz refresh rate. The 14 Pro Max is pretty much the exact same as the 13PM except it has a slightly better CPU, way better camera and the dynamic island which may be a gimmick depending on your personal preferences. The 15PM was more than I could afford tbh and the only enticing thing about it for me was USB-C… if you can afford it I would say it’s a worthwhile upgrade! “Upgraded” from a Galaxy S22 which had unfixable mobile data issues that caused me to sell. Decided to get an iPhone for the ecosystem as I prefer MacOS for work over W11. Hope this info helps someone else!

[@jus2befrank]

Besides AirPods, the only iPhone accessory I’ve bought are power bricks. Honestly I should’ve bought them elsewhere, but with storage I am VERY thankful that I bought more storage on my iPhone. I got a 2020 SE intending to only use it for maybe a year and give it to my mother, but I’m still using it. There is no way I would be able to use this nearly as long if I didn’t upgrade the storage.

[@adegbenroagoro5180]

I'm still using a 4 year old iPhone 11 Pro Max 256 GB ROM. It's my secondary phone but I've never referred buying the larger storage version.

[@Truecrimeresearcher224]

i dont use the USBC cord that comes in the box. it overheats my phone. i use a USB to C cord. its slower but i dont care. if i have no choice and i need the fast charging ill use the c to c cord. other than that the cord that came with my iphone 15 pro max i charge my switch with. i got a deal with the 15 pro max and im glad i got it. i got the blue titanium the moment i got it i put it in a case and put a tempered glass screen protector. i dont have apple care i am paranoid with it always in a good case and good screen protector, i almost rarley drop the phone i have and i also am not driving 2 hours away to an apple store

[@aspilobo]

I always send the selfie I take with my iPhone to my hard drive. For videos and photos I use my Sony full-frame cameras that have much better quality soooo yhea

[@Denkan378]

is it worth to upgrade from XR to 14 today bc i have been looking 14 specs and it has better battery than any other 13 mini to 14 pro for some reason.

[@paulgacote66]

14 is good value now second hand with several years of updates still. And audio hardware has improved over the 13

[@Omega_Mark]

14 will have the same longevity update-wise as 13. They both are using the same processor (A15 Bionic). You would be better off getting 15 when 16 comes out in mid-September.

Can you buy an iPhone and charge it with a Redmi ultra fast charger you already have or is this going to destroy your iPhone's battery so you need a designated Apple charger to charge your Apple iPhone? (Going to buy my first ever iPhone soon so excuse the ignorance)

[@denniss1211]

We purchased two 15 plus phones as they looked to meet our needs ... NOW, we want to use AI but the PLUS will not be able to us it ... SOOOOO do we trade to the 15 pro or the 16 base to get a reasonable use of AI ? TKS

[@aiden_k]

I wish I would’ve known they were going to try to make their other phones so obsolete, I would’ve at least opted for the 15 Plus for a dollar more than the 14.

[@conza1989]

Wonderfully when Apple joined the rest of us in the post 2017 world, in 2023, we can now not overspend on overpriced storage on an iPhone and instead get a USC-C stick. 256GB should be the bare minimum, but if I were getting a base model with only 128GB, I'd get a 512GB usb-c for $50 and not worry about it.

[@Bckwod]

128gb is enough for lot of people, especially if they’re used to 64gb and also about regular iphone 15 colors are pretty and they look very nice i don’t know what ur talking about when u said the colors isn’t good

I would never ever recommend Apple Care, 13$ is al lot of money compared to other insurances and the amount of money that AppleCare covers is in no relation to its cost. You only want insurances for existence threatening events and breaking your phone is not one of them.
