Apple Announces 'Far Out' September 7 Event Set to Feature iPhone 14, Apple Watch Series 8 and More

oh ok that makes sense
from this thread it seems people still carry music in their phones too
interesting

I do shiet I even download them big ass lossless/dolby atmos files
Got my 128 screaming tap out every time

Man this 256GB pro max deal looking sweet I’d literally pay less money that I’m paying for my 12pro right now
Like 5$ less
Or I keep the 12 Pro finishing the financing in November and keep paying 45$ monthly before taxes till next yr
I might pull off an impulse buy if I keep staring at my phone company

To me (and I don't mean this as disrespect to any breh in this thread ) this comes across as a coping mechanism to deal with the fact that they can't afford, can't justify or are unable to purchase bigger storage models.

Ehh…I could see if were like $500 more for the 256…but at only $100 more over a $1000 base I doubt many are sweating the increase. It’s a legitimate question to ask if the 256 is necessary. Particularly if you have a higher iCloud plan. And especially for some of us who are stepping up from old ass phones (iPhone 8, 64GB) in my case.

I ended up going with the 256 because I plan on using this for a while.

Shiet its even cheaper I pay per month if I trade in my 12 pro at apple and just buy it from them on their 0% APR DEAL HELP NO I MUST NOT
RESIST TILL NEXT YR I GOT THE WATCH ULTRA CHILL nikka CHILLL!!!

But that logic works against you-- if it's "only" $100, why would you not spring for double the space?

I can't understand, in the year 2022, people that are still asking is more space worth it on devices that allow you to store media.

You literally have people here pushing iCloud as an alternative, which they wouldn't need if they had bigger space on the phone itself.

I streak at losless and bustedmy 20gb plan within 2 weeks
Ima try with my new 40gb plan though

Damn. Was anybody able to figure out why its going to take the Plus model until October to finally ship?! Meanwhile all the other models will ship next Friday. What is it about the Plus model that will require that much more time for it to ship? Its just so bizarre to me.

Rumors in May that the 14 Max was 3 weeks behind schedule and Apple had them working overtime. It must've been true because it lines up now

I feel you but you don’t need to drop the extra $100 if you don’t envision that you’ll need it. Perfect use case is someone who streams music, and takes a limited to moderate amount of pics.

And as for iCloud, it’s not just used as an extension of your phone storage. I actually use it more as a cloud back up. In case my phone gets lost/stolen/broken. Hell I’m more concerned with cloud storage than actual phone storage.

It was 75$ for 20gb
Minus 10$ and 15%

Now its 70$-25$ so 45$ for 40
Yeah in Canada we getting bent over, but these were corporate plans
I also financed my 12 pro at 68.99 per month which ends this November

Dammit, didn’t realize I would get so much back from AT&T for a trade in. Getting $1000 for the 12 Pro Max. Already placed the order through Apple. Can you cancel the order even when it’s in “Preparing to Ship” status?

Let me know how that goes. I typically get the unlocked phone but I would be willing to go to att for that much back.

What gets me is pics and videos. I’m going through shyt now tring to get rid of random pics, screen shots and videos.

oh yea and my text threads are big too. Got all types pics in them smh. Had a bunch of old text threads taking up gigs.

im down to 139 /256gb now.

Have 128 gig pro for 2 years and I’m at 45 percent

I also have iCloud because I hold my sounds for beats on there

I’m thinking if I should go up in storage or just delete mad pics from the last two years smh
