Question: What happens if you purchase a 128GB iPhone + 4TB iCloud+ storage?

I wish there was a way to specify a folder to save video on the iPhone and everything else can go to the cloud. Use the USB connection to transfer videos to the Mac and not have to deal with uploading and download from the cloud.
I don't like the all or nothing approach to photo storage. It should be a hybrid solution.

Still starting at 128GB but gonna be about £200 more?? lol
I was thinking about upgrading but that kills it for me. I don’t need to upgrade so I guess I’ll hold off another year.
Next year they’ll probably still be at 128GB and give it another price hike.
Poor Apple is struggling they desperately need your money!

On Apple Silicon Macs, RAM is embedded on the SoC. Apple is not going to re-architect their enitre processor just to provide user-upgradeable RAM. RAM is designed that way on their custom processors for a reason.
Early next year, there will be Android phones with 24GB RAM
The thing is, by having the iPhone reverse charge, you can’t use either the iPhone or the device being charged. It sounds like a good idea but when would you actually be ok with not seeing the screen while charging AW or AirPods? There is a reason this has not become a thing for iPhone or Android devices.
Samsung has reverse wireless charging on all their flagships.
If this is true, it'll be even easier to forego upgrading this year.
A 128GB Pro Max that can't even fully utilize the camera is just insulting. Who is buying a 128GB Pro Max, besides elderly people who get talked into it for the larger screen? I'm not trying to be insulting or anything, but I don't know anyone under 70 who would even consider a 128GB Pro Max.
My old iPad has more storage, and I don't use it to take pictures/video.
This model exists to advertise a lower base price, period.

Coming from an XS Max 64GB, I have absolutely no issues in upgrading to a 15 Pro Max 128GB.
The levels of entitled whining here are as predictable as they are pathetic 😂

Dude, they are never going to improve Siri.
Looks like the base variant will be getting 6 GB RAM. Base model might be 128GB/6GB. Was expecting to see an increase in base storage
Last yer with the MAJOR 1x sensor bump. It was a quantum leap. And before that, the iPhone 11 (Pro) and its UWA camera + night mode.
The most enjoyable feature for me from the Pro iPhones is ProMotion. Seriously is the main reason I get it, I love the smoothness of the display. AoD is fun too. I know most love the camera updates, everything plateaued to me after the iPhone 12 Pro or so.
It's quite helpful when travelling and extremely helpful if you're as forgetful as I am. Between forgetting cables, or just forgetting to charge, reverse charge from my Galaxy has been a huge help. Even on the train, I can charge my AirPods case while still listening to music.
Reverse charge is also handy to eek out extra battery for mates phones. I've been in the situation where they didn't have enough charge left for their Uber ride, but charging for 15-20mins gave them just enough for the trip. It's good in a pinch.
I'm pretty annoyed AW is proprietary charging cause there have been many occasions I would have topped up before or after a workout from my phone.
Lack of ProMotion is pretty much the only reason I won’t go for a 15 Plus.
That would honestly be disappointing. I expected 256GB to become the base storage (at least for the Pro models) because of the rumored price hike and also due to the restriction of ProRes recording on the 128GB model.
But I guess they won’t do it until they’ve finally decided to get rid of the 256GB base on the MacBooks

the sooner the event the sooner this BS rumore stops. see for ourselves later today
My bet is this. They have never, ever publicly disclosed the amount of RAM in an iPhone. Nor the clock speeds of processors. Diving into specs like that takes distracts from all the “best ________ we’ve ever put into an iPhone” marketing. The only time they do it is when a performance difference would be obvious in a synthetic benchmark. Like the A15 chips that had only 4 GPU cores.
It’s possible they will do it. I think they only did it with the iPad as a way to entice more sales. But 8GB of RAM in a iPhone would clearly get plenty of people on here to buy in… so maybe.
For me the only feature that makes sense needing 8GB is if they are going to enable some sort of stereoscopic capture either directly with two cameras or generatively using the LiDAR and the neural engine. Probably some combination of both and that will be A LOT of data: Two 4k 60fps streams plus the raw data from the LiDAR. They need some sort of device capable of making content for the Vision Pro that isn’t the headset itself.
But Apple can still keep extremely aggressive app killing in iOS 17 regardless Of how much ram your phone has.
