Hey everyone!

I'm stuck between buying an iPhone 17 and a MacBook Air M5, and my current budget only allows me to get one of them.

Here's my situation:

I've been using an Android phone for around four years, and it has recently developed water damage. The left side of the display has started turning purple, and the discoloration is spreading across almost half the screen. That's one of the main reasons I'm considering upgrading to an iPhone 17.

On the other hand, I'm a software developer, and I currently use my personal laptop for work. It's an ASUS VivoBook Pro with a Ryzen 7 processor, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, and a GTX 1650. Performance-wise, it still gets the job done, but there's physical damage around the hinge/body area. The body opens up when I lift the lid, so although it works fine on a desk, carrying it around has become difficult. Thankfully, it has remained reliable otherwise.

Now comes the dilemma: the iPhone has been a teenage dream of mine, and I'd genuinely love to own one. But the MacBook would be a more work-oriented purchase, especially since I'm a software developer.

At the same time, my current laptop is still usable, while my phone's display is getting worse. I just don't know whether I should prioritize something I've wanted for years or invest in a new work machine.

If you were in my position, which one would you choose, and why? I'd appreciate honest opinions, especially from people who've faced a similar decision.

Thanks!

I found an iPhone 16 plus with 90% battery health. It has a warrenty for 1 year. The reasons I want to buy it: I want a bigger screen, good batter life, and it is not a very old model. Would go go for it? Is 90% battery health enough for a whole day usage?

Hi, everyone! Planning to buy a used iphone 15 Pro Max. What are the essentials I need to look for in the phone before i purchase it? Battery health etc? Water seal? Bare in mind I'll be jumping from Android to IOS for the first time in a long time! So i need to know this purchase will be a good one.

And what should be its budget?

Thanks!

So I want to buy an Apple Watch 12 but can't decide if titanium is worth it over aluminum or just get the Ultra 4. I had an Ultra 2 and liked it but it was bulky. Reason to get the series 12 titanium is a more comfortable fit as well as I wrestle with my dog he's a cattle dog so teeth are involved and he has caught my watch before. I also skateboard and go on shorter-type hikes.

Is the aluminum good enough with Apple Care. Will the screen hold up? Or should I get a titanium series 12 or ultra 4?

Currently using an iPhone 14 and the battery life has gotten really bad, so I’m thinking of upgrading.

I’m deciding between getting the iPhone 17e now or waiting for the iPhone 18e.
A few things about my usage:
- I don’t take many photos, so the camera isn’t a big priority.
- I generally use my phone for everyday stuff like messaging, browsing, social media, etc.
- Ideally, I’d like to keep my next phone for a few years.

For those familiar with Apple’s release cycle, do you think the 18e will be worth waiting for?

Alternatively, would it make more sense to just replace the battery on my iPhone 14 and wait for 20th year phone?

Would appreciate any advice, especially from people who have made a similar upgrade!

i wanna upgrade my iphone 14 pro to a 15 pro should i do it in paying like 26k to go from my 14 pro 256 to 15 pro 256 my bh is at 76% and the new phones battery health is above 90% what should i do

Should i go for the 15 pro or the base 16
My 15 battery is awful

I want to buy a used MacBook for trading and I am confused about which should I buy because there are a lot of options but I consider MacBook m1 but it looks old a little and M2 is in new design but it is double in price also I just need to browse websites thats why performance doesn't matter from m1 to m2 tell me which is best M1 air M1 pro M2 air M2 pro and also if anyone is expert in selling tell me about the prices of all m1 air, pro, M2 air, pro .

It’s time to upgrade from my iPhone 13 Pro. I’ll be updating through my carrier and it looks like it’s only a $100 difference between the 17 Pro and 18 Pro. I’m not someone who cares to upgrade that often, so I’m more so interested in what will be worth the price longevity wise. Any advice?

Wondering what the harm would be if I keep my iPhone 8 Plus
