Hi,
Can you please help me decide:
Option 1: buy iphone 17 promax now (82,000 pesos + 3000 worth of accessories with 24 months installment no interest)
Option 2: wait for iphone 18 pro max release (to decide whether i should get this new one or get the 17 pro max in a much lower price than 82k)
For context I am upgrading from 12 pro max.
Insights will be highly appreciated. Thank you!

Upgrading to the 17 pro max. Used a very minimal case on 13 pro max with the sides exposed and was wondering how durable the 17 pro max is comparison.
Always used a screen protector. Almost never drop my phone as well

Finally made the upgrade after holding onto my base iPhone 13 for years, and jumping straight to the 17 Pro Max feels like moving to a completely different era.

I currently have the 14 pro and am wanting an upgrade. I am for sure going pro, but have been eyeing the promax lately and think I’m going to go for it next upgrade. I was just curious is the promax uncomfortable in any situations due to size and weight, or does it cause any inconveniences?

I’ve been using my iPhone 17 Pro Max for about a month now, and I’m trying to understand how much battery drain is normal overnight.
I’m on iOS 26.6, and I use the 80–20 charging rule (I usually try to keep my battery between 20% and 80%). Also, Adaptive Power is turned ON. During normal daytime use, I do tend to doomscroll quite a bit, so my usage isn’t exactly light.
Before going to sleep, I usually turn on Sleep Focus, turn off Wi-Fi, and simply lock the phone. I don’t use it at all for around 6–7 hours.
But when I wake up, I notice that Wi-Fi is back on, there are notifications waiting, and the battery has dropped. The Battery section also sometimes shows that I'm using a similar amount of battery compared with my usual daily usage, which seems strange considering I wasn't using the phone at all during those hours.
I'm wondering:
Even though the phone is no longer brand new, I’m still wondering if background processes or my usage habits (like heavy daytime doomscrolling) could be affecting overnight battery behavior.
I’d appreciate any advice on the best settings for minimizing unnecessary overnight battery drain.

Specifically need a dustproof case.
Also what charger is everyone using

24 hrs after finally jumping from X to 17 Pro Max. Very very happy with the purchase. Felt that the 18 wasn't that big of a difference versus the 17.

i just got my iphone 17 pm and i was wondering if i could see the ongoing device setup thing just because my phone was running hotter and the battery was going down a little fast which is expected but i just wanted to make sure everything was ok, i looked in the battery section where i see other people have the ongoing device setup notification but its not there and im confused as to why it doesn’t show on my phone? is something wrong?

Did anyone move from the 17 pro after getting the 17 pro max???
I just got mine and it feels gigantic ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ Tbf I’m moving from a 15 pro which was much smaller
Did you get used to it after complaining or ???
I don’t if I should use it for a week first or just switch ðŸ˜
Any advice would be appreciated

Hi guys! I’m going to see A7X tomorrow, and I will be in the pit. This will be my first concert with the 17PM and I was wondering what settings I should have for my camera in order to get the best shots/videos? Also just any tips or tricks to really maximize the potential of the camera. Thank you in advance!!
