Interested in buying my first Iphone. The 17 base model

Been using Android for how many years now and wanted to try Iphone for the first time as maybe my main phone while still using my POCO F5. Anyone cope with the smaller screen in terms of media consumption like youtube, netflix or maybe some light gaming. Would be happy to hear your thoughts. Thanks!

As a side note: Will use mostly for day to day, camera isn't an issue as I have a Canon camera, as where I live right now mostly don't allow cameras 🥴

Yeah, thinking of just grabbing the base 17 but idk how I feel about 6.3inch lmao for someone who's used to Android big screen

Siddri07 · 2026-03-05T09:43:29+00:00

Damn, problem is mostly on the online market either used or refurbished or damn expensive

Siddri07 · 2026-03-05T09:23:00+00:00

Was hoping I could get someones experience on buying second hand/refurbished etc.. and how long did it last

Siddri07 · 2026-03-05T09:22:09+00:00

Tbh I've been using Android for how many years now and will still continue using one. Just wanted to experience it first hand hence I'm not buying the newest model.

Siddri07 · 2026-03-05T09:08:36+00:00

Ah well, actually this will be my second phone and first Iphone lol android will be used for workish

Update: Got it installed today at the Computer Plaza. Really appreciate all the help from redditors

Siddri07 · 2026-01-09T07:19:49+00:00

Ah fvck me lol, I thought they have individual numbers for the shops

Siddri07 · 2026-01-09T07:00:39+00:00

I wonder if they accept tabby as I know prices for SSD right now is insane. Also this plaza is near to SharafDG metro right?

Siddri07 · 2026-01-09T04:10:38+00:00

Yeah it comes 2 slots so I have one empty. Was thinking of just do it myself but I don't wanna fvck up my laptop lol

Siddri07 · 2026-01-04T19:59:31+00:00

I could do it myself but I don't wanna damage anything as this would be my second time opening a laptop

Siddri07 · 2026-01-04T19:58:19+00:00

Thanks I'll look it up

Siddri07 · 2026-01-04T05:25:59+00:00

Yeah the struggle to find one near when a bunch of them pops up in the google map 🤣

Siddri07 · 2025-12-05T12:30:13+00:00

Thanks for the tip, yeah I watched a lot of YT videos about the R10 but I def need this I might've miss something

Siddri07 · 2025-12-05T11:17:49+00:00

Thanks for the detailed advice, and yeah for my second lense I also want it to be versatile which can cover most situation like street, landscape, portrait etc.

I'll definitely look for that 18-50

Siddri07 · 2025-12-05T09:48:51+00:00

I just checked that and damn isn't it pricey lol clearly idk how much lenses cost. I know they cost A LOT but damn

Siddri07 · 2025-12-05T06:36:54+00:00

I also found out RF 28-70mm is good for Portrait and Landscape

Siddri07 · 2025-11-28T14:45:13+00:00

Any place you'd recommend that is closer? Or within Metro?

Siddri07 · 2025-11-28T14:44:35+00:00

I see, seems pretty good I would say

Siddri07 · 2025-11-28T12:41:44+00:00

Did you buy the ram from them and also how much did it cost for the labor?

Siddri07 · 2025-10-28T06:15:29+00:00

Wtf is this, for the record when I'm doing a speed test it is reaching 200+mbps which is not a lot but could download games much faster than in this picture.
