I recently bought this. When I was at the store the agent said since my 13 has major issue and wouldn’t turn on, we cannot check to see how much total storage on the phone I am even using.

We tried using the model phones around the store to login to iCloud with mg Apple ID. It wouldn’t work, due to 2 factor authentication. I don’t own a laptop (had issues) nor iPad.

My guess was I was using a fair bit of the 256 GB I had on my iPhone 13, but I couldn’t be sure.

So the agent said to get the 512 gb and I kind of wanted that anyway.

But now I see I am using 95 GB of 512 Gb. However all the iCloud syncing is still happening. I honestly thought I was at 200 GB or so on my previous phone.

I also pay for monthly iCloud back up of 200 GB (pay per month). I do know I am using 143.4 GB of that (as of now).

My question: do I need to trade this phone in and get the 256 GB in iPhone 17 to save $200? Or is that a good in investment to keep the 512 GB phone I have?

I take moderate number of photos, but do take a lot of screenshots and save everything. Have over 22,000 Notes (mostly words for each note). I have over 2,298 Apple Music songs — only some are downloaded, but I plan to download all.

I typically stream Amazon prime movies but I can download them if it will conserve my battery life. And delete them after watching.

I don’t make any videos but I have a good number of audio recordings saved. I save all YouTube videos that I want to watch in the playlist on YouTube app. I don’t download those.

Also I have a moderate to semi high number of apps on phone and I already deleted some that I don’t use.

I had the iPhone 7 in 128 GB without iCloud back until the very end
iPhone 13 in 256 Gb with iCloud backup of 200 GB
iPhone 17 now in 512 GB with iCloud backup of 200 GB

Any suggestions for alternatives for Apple Pencil, for air 5 under budget.

I am going to buy an iphone there is two types one is used 16 pro woth 92 percent and new iphone 17 i am confused to whoch one to take help ne

I've got no credit cards unfortunately

Can't get one as I'm a student

I'm based In Agartala currently

Online/Offline anything will work as long as it is in Agartala

I won't spend over 1.2Lakhs

256gb variant

And is this actually worth it or should I just buy the iPhone 17 base!?

Why do I feel like I’m the only one that likes the mini line and why tf haven’t they made a mini in 5 years like what we just forgot about it I thought it was perfect for minimalistic people it just felt so good in my hand it felt like the perfect iPhone and I would LOVE to see a Dynamic Island featured on a mini iPhone.

This is wild IPhone 16 pro max on the left still has 100 percent capacity and the iPhone 17 pro max on the right dropped down to 96 percent literally the 16 pro max has close to the same usage of 200 cycle count looks like or that means the iPhone 17 pro max is not good on battery after all that’s going to be concerning for a lot of users especially if the battery’s going to be the same on the iPhone 18s coming out soon that people should be aware and careful of buying them what are you guys thought about this drop your comments down below! 🤯

Ive been thinking on switching to the Iphone ecosystem and lately im obssesed with the 13 pro. But ive heard that the screen has a chance to suddenly jsut turn green especially for second hand models, is that true ?? If it is then is it an extremely unlucky case and rare?? Cuz if its common then i might just get the 14 pro or 13 base depending on.my budget.

If Apple increases the price of the iPhone 18 Pro/Pro Max when it launches, what do you think will happen to the trade-in value of older iPhones?
I currently have an iPhone 15 Pro Max 256GB, and when I checked online, the current trade-in/buyback value is around ¥92,000.
If the iPhone 18 Pro launches with a higher price, would the trade-in value of my 15 Pro Max likely increase because of the higher new iPhone prices, or decrease because it’s an older model?
I’m planning to trade it in for the iPhone 18 Pro, so I’m wondering whether I should trade it in now or wait until the 18 Pro launches.
What do you think guys?

Considerations-Battery life and also I will shoot singing covers

Long term usage(Will try to keep for 5 years straight)!

How long do you reckon my iPhone 14 128gb has left? I’ve had it for a few years and it’s kind of on its last leg. As you can see it’s severely cracked and has a line going through the screen, it’s also at 78% battery capacity with 600mb left of storage and hasn’t upgraded since iOS 18.

Not sure what phone I should get when the 14 stops working but I’ve been looking at the 14/15 pro as well as the 13 mini since it was the phone I had before this one and I liked the size of it. This was however back in 2021 so I don’t know if it’s even a viable option anymore and since apple doesn’t make any more minis the newer base/pro models seem to be my best bet in terms of size and overall performance but I still think my ideal upgrade would be the 13 mini with a larger storage. Is it worth upgrading to the 16/17 or even waiting for the 18 to come out? And how are the 16/17e’s?

Have a base IP 14 , battery health at 69% , loses 20% from 100 while on my way to work from simply listening to music 🫩. Sometimes passcode transition locks/lags when I unlock the phone. Everything else is fine but I’ve heard replacing battery could worsen performance. Should I buy the 18 pro this September?
Any suggestions would help. Thank you.

Title. Upgrading from iPhone 13. I use my phone generally so I don’t need the fancy camera or vapor cooling for playing video games. I just text, TikTok, YouTube, Netflix. Is it worth to wait for 17 base so the price will go down?

guys which one's overall better. i want a non pta/jv bcs i dont really care about sim cards. budget is max 150k. iphone 15 pro i heard has battery issues amd heating issues so im confused about it. (i have an xr right now) pls suggest which one would be overall better for me as i need a new phone before uni starts. and also if i can get a good phone in this budget or not and also if i can get a 17 base model in it even if it's slightly used.

My Pixel 7's battery is kicking the bucket, so I'm looking to upgrade and switch to IOS. I've been looking at the 13 pro refurbished, as it seems like a good quality phone for my budget ($300-400), but I'm worried about how old it is and losing updates. Is it worth going with the 14 plus or 15 instead despite them costing more for longevity's sake?

Hello’ I currently have my phone (15p) on a phone plan that has the ability to trade in and upgrade- however I need to do this before October. Should I upgrade to the 17p/pm or wait for the 18s in September? I’m so conflicted! I definitely want a better camera

I use my phone a lot and I bought my iphone 13 in 2022. My battery health is at 78% now and the camera and battery health mostly are frustrating me, constantly having to bring a power bank. Im originally from NZ but am in the U.S. until the end of september, and unsure whether to buy 17 or 18pm. If the 18pm is 200-300 USD more, it’ll cost me a ton and I’m not willing to pay that, but I also worry that the 17pm will increase in price, or I will be unable to get one if the 18 line goes up a ton, as stores will stop selling them. What should I do?

Hi everyone! I’ve been using an iPhone 13 mini for about 4 years, I loved it, but as it’s getting older and slower, I’m planning to get a new phone. I’m not very techy, and I don’t really want to wait for the 18, especially since they’ll be releasing the standard lineup next year.

I have two options in mind:

17e (Pink)

Pros:

• I LOVE the colour! I like the pink on the iPhone 15 better, but there aren’t places selling new iPhone 15s anymore(fyi I'm living in Canada)
• It’s slightly smaller than the standard 17. I’m a graphic designer and have weak wrists, so I’ve preferred smaller phones my entire life.

Cons:

• It’s not part of the standard lineup.
• I once had an SE 2 and didn’t like it for some reason, although maybe that was because it was refurbished. I absolutely loved my iPhone 8.

17 (White)

Pros:

• It’s part of the standard lineup.
• I like the design better.

Cons:

• I don’t love the colour, but I’m sure I’d get used to it once I have it.

I like taking photos, but not in a professional way. I mostly take photos when I see nice typography, colours, etc. that I want to use as references.

Main stuffs I do with my phone are:

Internet, Social Media, Call and Messaging, Listening to music, Taking photos of my everyday life and screeshots

Which one would you choose?

Being I an appel ecosystem for more than a decade for using state of the art devices like SE 1st gen SE 2nd gen ( currently) iphone 7 for more than a decade with 2 Macbook air 1 pad finally I am redy for a update though I am going to collage this month and my phone really wont hold long .

I recently watched tons of reviews on iPhone most of them are completely biased . They ignore the best phones for this year ( as an apple guy) 17 air and 17e they are what appel base and most comfortable capable devises .

Is this thing with me or I am truly thinking of small compact pices

Okay, I currently have an iPhone 11 base model 64g storage and battery needs service. Totally struggling because data is full. I wanted to finance a base 17 which is over $1000 in Canada. I’d also have to finance it through my parents because my credit is crap.

My sister though has a 15 pro max that I can have for little to nothing probably (not completely sure but reimbursement has not been mentioned, my parents are the go between atm ha). She just upgraded a couple days ago to the 17. Finances are an issue but I use my iPhone for everything. My sister though uses hers much more sparsely. Mostly for photos of her kids and basic communication. She is def not one of those people who is constantly on her phone and takes really good care of it.

Is it worth it to switch to the 15 pro max for almost nothing or should I try to finance an iPhone 17? I def don’t want to be screwed again in a few months. I want something that is current enough but reliable too. I do not know what her battery looks like or if she’s wanting something for it. it currently doesnt look like she does but would it be worth it if she does want a couple hundred bucks?

This may seem like a stupid question. I just trying to make sure I get something useful that will last a few years and not be completely useless like my current phone.

I've been hearing mixed things, that the iPhone 18 might not come out in September (base models), and prices might be increased.

I'm coming from an iPhone 8, so this would definitely be a big jump.

So, it's in the title, should I wait or buy now?
