I have this very strong urge to get the iPhone Air and sell my 17 Pro Max. Just worried the camera and battery too weak that’s all.
My iPhone Air is the secondary phone, otherwise battery like not much difference.

But when it comes to macro shots, 17PM is definitely the choice.

U got shoot pro res much on ur pm??
I tend to pull out my 13PM and 17PM for macro shots. iPhone Air cannot handle that. :grin:

You mean the battery not much difference from iP17PM? I don’t really take macro shots nor really that many photos actually.

As in the rate of battery draining. My 17PM primary phone is used for payments, banking, and stuff like these. iPhone Air is not used as much through the day other than surfing. End of the day both have similar percentage of battery left.

I am thinking of changing to a set up like yours.. currently using 16PM as primary and Xiaomi 15 Ultra as secondary.. Xiaomi is mainly used for surfing and photo taking..

I should be swapping the Xiaomi to Air.. still thinking if I should even swap 16PM to 17PM..

After much thought, decided maybe should get one to try it out. Texted my usual phone guy to check prices if he can match street shop prices. Can't stand the itch to get the Air anymore 🤣🤣🤣

Swap your 16PM to Air. Keep your Xiaomi 15 Ultra for photo taking. Current 17PM still can't win that 3 Ultra phones in term of photo taking.

Is returning to Apple troublesome?
Just go Apple physical store to buy at retail price. Just before the return date specified on the digital invoice, go back to Apple store and return everything including box and accessories. There’s a staff there to process returns who will do a quick inspection of the device. The actual process just takes 3-4 minutes. The refund process will take about 3 days to complete.

Just take note that usually around the second week of November each year, Apple has an extended return date which last till around 8 January next year. You take this opportunity to test out the Apple device for almost 2 months and return.
