I think it depends sometimes on what youre using it for or the situation… If youre on holiday and recording a lot of video, but dont have the opportunity or ability to sync or upload it, it could prove very useful.
Ive had good experience with Kioxia. Even their cheap micro SDs have held up surprisingly well.. and for sure it wasnt the best NAND they have.. in terms of binning.Kioxia are the best. That's Toshiba.
It was never available in 8GB. The OS wouldn’t even fit…
Wait, so they don’t do it anymore with the iPad?
Again, you have look at the overall package, not focus in on certain specs. If iPhones offered exactly the same package as other phones at a higher price, no one would buy it. It offers something else apparently of value, because people buy it. Again, value is subjective.
Yeah, they do feel held back… even my iphone 13 is powerful for what it is, but the 4 GB RAM and lack of a Samsung DEX-like environment when connected to a display is a pitty. Granted they use various aspects of the processor for image processing etc but my iphone for the most part could probably get by solely with efficiency cores.
Exactly and let us dock them and run MacOS Sonoma on them....
For many photo management systems, including Apple iCloud and Adobe Lightroom, you don't really need your whole catalog on the device. It'll keep proxies and then download the full resolution when needed, and keep it on device until space is needed for something else. I've got about 16,000 iPhone photos plus about 15,000 Lightroom photos (mostly RAW), and on my 64 GB iPhone X, it's fine. As long as you have a decent wifi/cel connection, they're all available even though most aren't on the device. That said, I'll be upgrading this fall and will probably want at least 256 GB and maybe 512 because who knows what the future holds.
so the only key player missing from this list is Micron, yet they are listed as a RAM supplier?????
the blind apple fanatics doesn't see it that way bud.... sad.
tequila for this guy right here, totally agreed with ya.
You were claiming that everything has gone up in price. I give you an example of something that is not, which is things like memory and guess what … this article is about memory.
I prefer to pay monthly and get a new phone every year. Why would I want to use a 3 or 4 year old phone if I can afford it? Not everyone is in dire financial stress. A smart choice for you is not my choice for me.
A smart choice for the planet… eventually phones will have upgrade cycles much longer than what they are at the moment. A combination of upgradable/replaceable modularity (battery, processing units, camera etc) and the need to limit the impact of manufacturing processes.
