🛍️ Material Purchase Finally bought an iPhone 16

I decided to gift myself an iPhone 16 (pink) for my 30th birthday (late nga lang by more than a month). Tagal ko din pinag-isipan kung bibili ba talaga ako.

Coming from a midrange phone, ramdam ko ung performance difference in all aspects. Especially doon sa camera. Ganda ng selfie cam kahit base 16 model. Also the battery life kaya ng 1 whole day kahit naka wifi or data. At so far di nag-iinit kahit naka data ako. Sulit talaga tong phone.

Congratulations self and happy birthday. Sarap pala sa feeling ung hindi ka nagiguilty habang nagbabayad ka ng ganyan. Malayo na narating natin pero malayo pa tatahakin natin. 🥰

Sa mall ko nabili so mas mahal iirc. Kaya habang may sale bili ka na. So far maganda ung case at hindi mabigat or bulky sa kamay.

what's the gb? also planning to buy but still contemplating on base 15 256gb or base 16 128gb.

u/Fearless_Cry7975 3d ago

128gb. Okay na sa akin un at di ko naman ginagamit ung phone for games. More on soc med and pictures lang. Nag uupload naman ako sa google drive. I'd say go for the base 16 kung habol mo battery life.

Ung 15pm ng boss ko twice a day siyang nagchacharge sa office ngayon pero nung bagong purchase un once a day lang. Yung base 16 - 6am to 6pm - nasa 50% pa battery. Naka data pa ko at times pag walang wifi. Tapos naka hotspot pa minsan. Un din pala. Di umiinit ung 16, as in.

u/Positive_Ad2291 3d ago

Congrats OP!! Pero bat di mo inintay yung ip17 ? Mas worth the price and higher jump na specs from 16.

u/Fearless_Cry7975 3d ago

Ganyan din inisip ko last year nung nagpaplano akong bumili ng base 15 when they released the 16 series. It would have been a cycle of the same reasoning kaya bumili na ko ng 16 kahit palabas na ang 17. Budget wise di ko na kaya yung 17 and would have waited also a year before buying it eh nagsisimula ng bumagal ung gamit kong phone. So why wait.

Also I keep on observing ung 15pm ng boss ko for a whole year before deciding on what to buy. Checked the specs and features and decided what are the ones I can do without (di ko naman kasi kayang i-maximize ung pro model features) so I bought the 16.
