Hi all,
Wife needed a new phone so we went and look for a bargain. Found that the iPhone 13 512GB is on a pretty sizable discount at HN and we were able to get OW to price match bringing it down to $1279.65.
The iPhone 12 Pro 512GB is also on sale for $1397 but we needed the extra battery life more than the tele camera.
H
your answer lies in the very first word of the title 😂
The phone will last for 6 years at least. But yeah, bit of a rip.
Do you have a better deal to post for iPhone 13 512GB?
Edit: grammar
Still using my Pixel 2XL so Apple's durability point of difference isn't anything to value imo, the other flagships looking at are the current Google flagship which is about $500 cheaper than this, or the comparable 6 model even cheaper again.
If you absolutely must stay in the Apple ecosystem (why?) then I guess you have to cough up the huge and inexplicable premium, but my point that this isn't, by my definition anyway, a bargain, remains.
I replied to your comment because this seems to be the best price at a substantial discount for people after an iPhone 13 512GB, hence it is a bargain (to me).
I was not after a new phone. Still using iphone 7 (2016). I am using iPhones because of lots of reasons
- it suits my partner the best. She upgrades her phone and I use hers.
- all apps and games I need works well
- iPhones last a long time and has more resale value
- iPhones receive updates for a very long time and quick. I used to be in Android world (Lg Viewty, Sony Z2) and waiting for an OS update was super long, and sometimes not at all
@bheart: A Google Pixel ticks all those boxes for significantly less than the comparable Apple product. Often (as with the Pixel 1&2), they are significantly better a some things, imaging for example, cloud storage another.
Considering the 1TB 14 Pro Max was $1800 this week, I’m not sure this is a good deal.
Edit: oops it was $1900.
Flash sale only. Any chance to get a similar deal?
Where was it $1900? That's a hell of a bargain.
Are you sure it was the 1TB or the max? They're $2769 full price.
Amazon.
RRP on Apple website is $1749 which is outrageous for a year old model IMO.
Apple will never stop trying to rip people off.
They will continue to because people will pay it.
They’d be stupid otherwise.
They need to rip people to ripe their apple
Make sure you ride your dinosaur to the store for this old ass tech
I’m typing on an iPhone 7, a 2016 phone, which is decent for all my apps and games
Touch ID for the win. Still using an iPhone 8 myself.
The 13 mini 512gb at $999 in 2022 I could do. This I cannot. Or rather, am not willing to.
Apple is selling 10 year old trashcan Mac Pro for $6200 US lol.
Expensive dog food!!
The what now?
Gerry never gets enough dog food
hopefully there will be a deal for iphone 13 mini.
Will there be another Telstra day iPhone deal in about two months?
Maybe, have you thought of asking someone who works at Telstra
1TB 13 Pro for $1752 is a pretty good price as well - https://www.harveynorman.com.au/apple-iphone-13-pro-5g-1tb-g…
Considering the 13 pro is better than the 14 (same hardware, 120hz screen, better camera, brighter screen, better battery life) and it's cheaper than a 512GB iPhone 14 it's a great option for anyone wanting a lot of storage.
Keep in mind that backing up a 512gb, let alone 1tb, will require lots of room on a computer or Cloud.
That's why if you're a Mac user who doesn't know how to create a symbolic link to an external drive, you buy a new Macbook so you can back it up. More money for Apple.
Or just pay $52 more to get iPhone 14 128gb $1399 if you dont need the storage?
Pretty much the same phone but easier to repair I believe. You can repair the phone from the rear saving your screen from being cracked like previous gens
An old phone (from 2021) at over $1300 is considered a bargain?
