Has to be team SIENNA BLUE 13 pro max 💙 looks amazing in the apple iPhone video 👌😎

And no I’m not getting 1TB 😂 128gb is plenty for me.

Hurry up Friday 10pm 🤦‍♂️👉📱


You better rethink that. Video recriding in pro features will be l8mited to 1080p I forget the specifics but get 256GB minimum else you’re just neutering your iPhone.

I’m so confused.

best year ever for a trade-in direct with Apple for me so going to take full advantage of this. I really like last years 12 Pro in blue and this years 13 Pro is 🔥 but …. The 1.5hr overall battery life increases on both the 13 mini really has me peaked. Add 1000nits and skin tone balance is critical for me over my 12 mini.

I don’t need the 512GB storage but may splurge, and the Pro camera features I’m just not ever going to use to fullest capabilities as I have a LOT to learn. Praying no more lens flare, but better light in pics will help.

13 Mini 256/512 GB for me.
my 2018 iPad Pro 11” is going to my sister this Saturday.
ill get the iPad Mini with Apple Pencil in 5wks.
 
Keeping 8 Plus. Just got a new battery. Works great.

Nothing in the new model that I care about. Last time I took a pro-level movie was...never. LOL.

The less you want, the more you have.
Oz, Lion “ain’t it the truth!?!” Smart thinking.
Considering updating my 1st generation SE to one of the Mini models.13 Mini is shiny and new, but the 12 Mini is cheaper. Various shops here in the UK were discounting the 12 Mini already (e.g. John Lewis), so I'm hoping they reduce the price of it even more now that Apple has reduced the price.
Look for other devices to trade in for the 13 mini!
better battery life, significant enough,
improved screen brightness (summers), I can tell you first hand this summer the 12 mini at full brightness struggled to be legible, no shades.
more efficient cpu… yet I feel ProMotion would’ve benefited the minis THE most for battery life.
- if you get the 12 mini get AppleCare+ chances are down the road you may get the 13mini as a replacement due to stock shortages, recall production was lowered 2 qtrs ago.

Good kuck.
Upgrading to the Mini...from an iPhone 4 16GB.
Great Scott! You are a trooper. Bro I’m telling you you’ll be setting up a pillow for the 13 mini first night to sleep with it, your significant other will be jealous that’s how much you’ll love the upgrade. Wow!
The iPhone 13 Mini really sparks my interest. I thought about getting an iPhone 13 mini + an iPad mini...

Coming from an iPhone X. This phone has been so good to me that I saw no reason to upgrade. It'll likely still last me another year but I think it's time to upgrade.
13 mini + iPad mini we here! 👀
Going with the mini before Apple discontinues it. I've loved my iPhone 6 but it's time for an upgrade. I don't need a large, heavy phone. I'd rather save the money towards a new iPad.
Bingo!

judging by current votes in this thread the mini does have decent interest by those that voted. Hope sales are even more significant but Apple NEEDS to advertise it.

I suspect the iPad mini got this much R&D and it’s not the best seller, probably more niche than the iPhone mini is but with such support for Pencil 2 I think the mini will see another year, not as an SE remake.
I always go with a clear case. Simple.

They turn yellow after a month 🤦‍♂️

Pitaka case baby all the way!
 
That's really odd. Is it because the video files will be HUGE?
Pro Res 4K video recording is NOT available at the base 128gb storage size?

View attachment 1831202

Also extremely disappointed in No USB-C connectivity. Unless they upgraded IO speeds on lightning, anyone attempting to copy 4K ProRes files off their device is going to have to get used to waiting...
Yup.
feature ProRes Video recording On the 13 Pro 128GB is not at 4k but 1080p.
 
There's another thread up for pre-keynote, but having watched the announcements, has that changed your intentions?

The only tempting thing for me is the pricing and larger base storage capacity, otherwise, I'm still on the fence as the 13 Mini really is a hard sell for me as someone who was fairly happy with the 12 Mini.

What are you doing?

I’m getting the 13, from a 12 Pro. The battery on the 12 Pro is awful (my battery health is now 85% after one year) and I’m imagining the battery on the 13 will be way better. IDC bout ProMotion and besides, that will probably be a battery killer anyway. I upgrade on the IUP every year regardless 🤷🏻‍♂️

My 12 Pro battery also degraded way faster than on my 11 Pro, it's near 90%, I wonder if it's the higher temp magsafe charging?
 
Looks the best to me out of all the available colours. Maybe wisteria (the lilac colour)? I can't rock light colours though and that would get dirty really quickly.
Goodbye iPhone 12 Pro Max 🥺 selling it to a family member for $1100, with 3 cases and 1 year apple care plus left, looking after them a bit since they’re family.

13 pro max will only cost me $900 with apple care plus 😃

That’s a good deal for your family member. Wondering if I should just trade in mine with Apple and get $929 for my 12PM 128GB. Saves so much time and effort compared to FB.

What cases you getting? If I do upgrade it’ll be sierra blue as well 🤦‍♂️Not liking any of the cases, they don’t match well.
I had the same reaction when I checked out the cases. They’re all really drab IMO.

Trying to convince myself to stay with my 11. I keep asking myself "Do I really need to upgrade?"
Unsure how ill go with the OLED screen of the 13 series and plus my wife would probably kill me.
