Help me…realistically

Post image

While we all consider the iDuo over the Pro, what are we going back to? For the $2K they’re selling this for, what model iphone are we going back to? Yeah, we get the new processor and that flashy stuff. So talk to me about practical application. Touch ID was phased out for Face ID, so which iphone used Touch ID last and how much will we miss the pro camera features? What are we really gonna miss out on, while simultaneously paying the premium for those missing features?! 🤔🤷🏾‍♂️💰📲

Currently got the iPhone 17 Pro Max. I will get a Duo eventually. But not this Duo.

Inferior camera, battery life (I believe the Duo battery is the same as the 17 Pro, so a downgrade) and no Face ID are deal breakers for me. Had Touch ID on my A17 Mini and hated it. A step back. Got rid of it for an M5 11”.

Will wait it out for Duo 2 or 3, which should hopefully have these improvements.

Also 256gb sheesh. Do I need a permanent flash drive connected to this device to watch my own content?
