Ok the macro camera is insane
That's crazy.
 
R1200 for silicone and R1500 for the leather

I got the clear one, so I can see my shiny new sapphire blue iPhone :laugh:

Can also confirm the screen is beautifully smooth compared to my 12 Pro Max.
 
Nice. How much was the silicon case?
Got a cheapie plastic/silicon on my XS that has held up extremely well, but not so sure this time round

I just got the clear MagSafe moov one for R400, not paying an extra 100 for the apple branding.

I wanna see my pretty blue.
 
I got mine from Takealot pre-order. Had it in my hands at 08:05 yesterday.

Got the normal 13 :) it's my first iPhone and I'm loving it so far.
Wow, helluva model to pop your cherry with?

I still remember my first iPhone like it was yesterday. 3GS... man oh man, I remember how ridiculously smooth and responsive it was compared to the HTC Tytn it was replacing! Totally blew my little mind at the time!
 
iPhone 13 ranks better than iPhone 12 Pro in DXOMark camera test

Last month, DXOMark published the iPhone 13 Pro camera review, saying it ranked better than last year’s iPhone 12 Pro. Now, the company published the iPhone 13 camera review as well, and it’s also better than the 12 Pro.

DXOMark explains that the score includes a “Photo score of 138,” which is also one point better than the iPhone 12 Pro, and a “Video score of 117,” both of which help the iPhone 13’s case. On the other hand, it received a good Zoom score of only 55 points.

In the camera department, the iPhone 13 cannot offer a dedicated tele module but comes with several improvements over last year’s generation. The new primary module uses the same size sensor as last year’s top-of-the-line iPhone 12 Pro Max and there is now Dual-Pixel autofocus instead of PDAF. Light is channeled through an f/1.6-aperture lens and a sensor-shift stabilization system is keeping things steady. The primary module is accompanied by an ultra-wide camera that features the same tech specs as on the iPhone 12 generation.

As you can imagine, the iPhone 13 and 13 mini have the same camera modules and DXOMark was able to confirm this, so regardless of which iPhone you get, you’ll have the same camera experience.

DXOMark praises this phone’s camera saying it shoots generally with nice colors and white balance, pleasant skin tones in most light conditions, fast, accurate, and repeatable autofocus, and mostly accurate and smooth video autofocus.


 
Does anyone know of an iStore that has stock of the 13 Pro Max in CPT? When looking online, you can't check stock availability.

Want to trade in my 12 Pro Max

Think you need to ask for a new eSim as you aren't able to scan the old code if I remember right.

Did the transfer not move the profile over?
 
Anyone in the JHB area looking to sell their iPhone 12 Pro to me?

Having seen a few videos now on how iPhone batteries work (was interested to see their reason for not including REAL fast charging), it could be that it's been intentionally slowed down looking at your percentage. Apple doesn't want their phones to shoot up to 100% because it degrades the battery sooner. So around 80% to 100% is going to be a lot slower than 0% to 80% (for example).

Edit: here's some videos about charging that I found interesting.



Explains the slowing down at 80%:
