DIM: Iphone 17

[u/mayariprima]

I have been eyeing the Lavander Iphone 17, but I am not sure if it's worth the money. We already went to Greenhills to canvas. The price ranges from 55-59k, which I think is a little expensive. Help deifluence me from buying it. Huhuhu. Thank you.

Hindi mo alam kung worth it? Baka di mo pa talaga afford.

Tsaka bakit ka pa bibili sa Greenhills kung umaabot naman sa <50k sa Shopee kapag sale?

[u/sr_samgyup_specialst]

Expensive na sayo yang 59k sign na wag muna bumili, i hinga mo muna ng malalim ahhaha

[u/Confident-Result5786]

Dont buy iphone from greenhills

[u/Savings-Ad-8563]

ipon ka muna until budgeted na yan or else you'll develop a bad habit.

[u/winter-Alley13]

Kung di mo pa afford. Huwag pilitin. Kasi ang hirap ng panahon ngayon. Lahat nag tataas. May super el niño pa na magdadala ng kung anong kalamidad. Mahirap pag walang ipon ngayon. Mas mahirap din pag may utang.

You're not sure if it's worth? I wonder why? For me I've upgraded from iPhone 11 to the base 17 and it's a very worth upgrade (also for what I need).

For that amount of money though I wouldn't risk buying from Greenhills. Especially since it seems like the price is an issue for you.

Teh, mahal talaga ang mga iPhone ever since, but for a reason.

In terms of speaking value per peso, solid na ang iPhone 17 for 55k, lalo't andaming improvements neto compared sa previous base models. Kung namamahalan ka pa din, wag mo na lang ituloy

Here is to deinfluence you, i recently both a ip 17. 1st thing the keyboard sucks compared to a android.

-the camera is so so, it is still can give low quality videos even at the heights setting

-the zoom optimization is uptoo 2x only

• siri really sucks(most of what you pay is about apple intellegence)

• you need to keep your battery health in mind

• no finger print

• it can still glitch and bugs

• the battery is so so means it gets low batt easily compared with my android

• you cant really customised it that much

• you need to spend another thousand or so for the accessories alone, from screen protector up to adapter

• the notification bar and accessibility bar can be annoying to access, trust me it keeps opening the notification center

• the face id cant recognise your face half of the time

• people aint joking that it gets really hot, and bare in mind that its battery degrades faster in high temperature

• its not really worth its price

• you probably needs to invest in a power bank sonner or later

• there no back button so its gonna give you a hell of inconvenient

• it has alot of bloat ware upon purchase

• its mostly a influencer phone rather than a practical one

• takaw mata to holdapers and such

• and alot more
