    iPhone 16 Series

    For me, 60Hz vs 120Hz is only one consideration when buying a phone. Phones do different things for different people. For me, I am looking for a larger screen in a (relatively) light body, above average battery life, and excellent build and screen quality. The iPhone 16 Plus ticks those boxes...

    iPhone for old Dad

    I vote 14 Plus After reading a bit of your post, I’d like to change my answer. If obsolescence is not an issue: XS Max (best grade at iStore pre-owned is R7499) If you’d prefer possibly another update: 11 Pro Max (best grade at iStore pre-owned is R10999)

    Try Carbonite. You can get some great deals there.

    Samsung Galaxy S24, S24+ and S24 Ultra

    No. The SE is clearly separated from the rest of the line-up. In my opinion, Apple succeeds in branding, and subsequent profit potential, through clear product differentiation. A company should create its own hype and its own appeal. Disclaimer: I am only speaking about Apple in response to...

    Samsung Galaxy S24, S24+ and S24 Ultra

    I think this is where Samsung gets distracted and creates a messy line-up. The A55 or an A7X should be the budget flagship. The A55 is already about 90% of what the S24 FE is. An A7X could cover the rest. The S series should not be “budget” in any way, shape or form. There needs to be clear...

    I really don’t understand the reason for the existence of the FE models…

    iPhone 16 Series

    The plot sickens… And yours was a fairly straightforward situation so I shudder to think how they will “handle” anything more complicated…

    iPhone 16 Series

    Soooo, I went to the iStore in Eastgate JHB and to say that the staff were clueless about what I asked would be an understatement…

    Thanks @bluepoole I think I’ll visit another iStore and see if anyone there knows.

    iPhone 16 Series

    Thank you @bluepoole Your post is more insightful than the advice I was given at my local iStore. Would you happen to know if I can buy the phone I want on the ebucks partner shop and then trade in the old device within 30 days?

    iPhone 16 Series

    Does anyone know how the trade-in and cash back option works at the iStore? I tried speaking to an agent online but they did not respond and the salespeople at the store were either uninterested or clueless… Also, can you trade in and make a purchase through the ebucks partner shop? I’m sure...

    OnePlus 13

    Aah, that would make sense. Makro is so messy these days…

    OnePlus 13

    Why isn’t OnePlus more widely available in SA? I see Makro has the 12 on their website. Other than that it’s practically non-existent…

    iPhone 16 Series

    Anyone have the 16 Plus? If so, what are your thoughts on it? Reviewers seem to be impressed by it and the numbers look good but how is the battery life in day to day life? The weight for its size also seems good. How does it feel in hand and in your pocket?

    Samsung Galaxy S25, S25+ and S25 Ultra

    It's about time thinner phones comeback into fashion. I just hope they (and Apple, who are planning to introduce the own slim model) find a way to maintain decent battery life in the slimmer form factor.

    iPhone 16 Series

    I think you can get your trade in value locked for 60 days and add your name to the waitlist so that as soon as they have stock within the next 60 days, you still get the best deal on your 13 Pro.
