iPhone 13 Series

[Jirachi]

Icic, thks, got it, so we should buy nearer to 60days to fully max the $$ paid.

That is not how the way it works. Regardless of when you buy, expires on the date of iPhone activation + 2 years for iPhone.

Wow interesting. But buying on Shopee is delivery only right?

Yeah. Only delivery via Shopee.

Don't have to rush to buy the phone. The phone will always be there waiting for you to buy. lol

Applecare is not really needed if you have a case and glass screen protector.

I've dropped my iPhones a few times. Sometimes the glass protector breaks which requires replacing. That's all.

Applecare is more suitable if you're not using case or screen protector.

13 is thicker and camera area bigger than 12. Of cos it seem to work fine. Put your 12 into a 13 case and it will not fit.

I just put my 12 pro max into a 13 pro max apple silicone magsafe case and it fits perfectly fine haha

Does this 13 able to use dual sim cards?

You can dual sim with esim. Note if u have cellular apple watch like me and need 2 esim for dualsim iPhone only m1 supports. Singtel only supports 1 esim

So does 13 pro last longer than 13? But 13 have a larger battery

13 has a larger battery but 13 Pro still last longer from the metrics stated by Apple.

Thks for sharing. I'll likely not buy, believe mainly for screen crack. With a good case + screen protector, we should jave a gd lvl of protection

Maybe 13 pro same as 11 pro

Any source for this?

This recently updated link says otherwise.

From Apple SG

Previously some of us who bought applecare+ for their Airpods pro also got our date start from applecare+ purchase date

Authenticator apps like Google / Microsoft / RSA all need to manually port over right? The itunes backup + restore cannot cater for it?

Wah imagine the issues if u wipe the old phone without porting those over...

Google auth is very easy to migrate. 10 secs job only. old device, u just select transfer account and select export account, then select all your auth login accounts, new device just select import and scan the QR code, done.

Thanks, I've not done it before (my phone is 4 years old) hence good to know that it's not that complex. My main worry is forgetting to export Google auth before wiping my old phone

Just invest more and get a good casing and screen protector.

I heard from my friend that there’s a change in iPhone repair policy starting from iPhone 12 where faulty sets within warranty or Apple Care period won’t get a 1 to 1 replacement, but rather, repairing the unit like changing the screen, motherboard, back glass etc.

Is this true? Has anyone encountered any problems with prolonged repair times on their iPhone 12 with this new policy?

 

[Illusionist_85]

I more scared of Microsoft one as I need it for m365

 

[roastedcoffeebean]

seems like 13 pro more popular than 13? delivery for 13 pro is now 19 Oct onwards, 13 is 5 Oct for certain models

Agree with you. And make sure your case has a high front screen bump!

Erm, yes. Possible. I believe the back case is no longer glued to the parts starting with the 12.

For sure... Because of the ProMotion 120Hz display.

Seems like stocks are ample or demand not as strong this time round with all self-pickup dates still being Day 1.
