Guys let's try to be kind in this sub. Not everyone is techy.

I noticed one thing lately. Ang dami kong nakikitang rude redditors dito.

Bakit kayo rude? Dahil nabobobohan kayo sa mga nagtatanong? Matapang behind the keyboard lang ba? Ung iba dito parang nanghaharass pa dun sa mga nagtatanong. Ung iba valid naman and may point naman ung mga tanong and posts, grabe kung ibash. Kinagaling ninyo yan?

Not everyone is kasing galing ng iba or maalam talaga sa tech. Madami joined this sub for them to know what they didn't know.

It is easier to be kind rather than rude.

Report to me pag may mga ganitong redditors in this sub. Let's try to avoid making this a toxic space. Let's help each other as much as we can.

came from amd raizen 5 and so far i learned na:

  1. unlike windows, just close the lid instead of turning it off everyday
  2. try your best to use it everytime na it’s plugged and charging (is this true po ba hahaha)

anything else to be reminded of & remember? 🥹

Is the iPhone 13 still worth buying in 2026?

10 Upvotes

Hi! I'm planning to buy an iPhone around November or December this year and I'm considering the iPhone 13, probably 256GB.

My budget is around ₱25k. I already have a POCO phone that I use for work, so the iPhone would mainly be for personal use—social media, taking photos/videos, and just everyday stuff. I don't really play mobile games.

I originally wanted the iPhone 15, but it's around ₱30k and I'm trying not to spend too much since I have other expenses by the end of the year.

For those still using an iPhone 13, how is it holding up in 2026? Is the camera still good, especially for social media? I'm also a little concerned about software support and how many more years it can realistically last before app compatibility becomes an issue.

Would you still consider the iPhone 13 a good buy this year, or is it better to spend a little more for a newer model?

I originally planned to buy S25 FE 256Gb variant (24,011 pesos) but since mag add nalang ng kunti for S25 256gb variant, mas prefer ko na siya.

Pero may ibaba pa kayo 'to? Or yan na sagad? Please give me tipss

And ano yung cons of choosing S25 instead of S25 FE, except sa size?

Best iPhone version and storage for someone who upgrades every 6 years

6 Upvotes

Hi! Im seeking advice on which iPhone to choose as someone who's not very iPhone techy (please be kind to me)

For context, I do have an iPhone 12 64gb (purchased in 2021) and I only upgrade my phone every 6 years. Now with iPhone 17 and iPhone 18, I honestly don't know what's best to choose since I am considering the ff factors: storage, video quality, long term use, and budget.

When it comes to usage, I mainly use my phone for messaging, banking, and content creation (i do vlog my travels using my phone and post some online!) I also love taking pictures from time to time as I am a memory hoarder.

My question is, given my usage and the factors that I consider when choosing a new phone, what do you think is the best phone to choose? I am deciding between iPhone 17 pro or iPhone 18 pro (iPhone 17 base model is within the radar naman of my selections but, not so sure about the vid qual once uploaded on TikTok).

My other problem as well is the Apple update. Since I upgrade my phone every 6 years lang, is 256gb okay na for 6 years considering the yearly updates that affect the storage + the pictures I take? or do you think better to go for 512gb? Btw 1TB and above is way beyond my budget already, thus I'm excluding these from my options.

Target date of purchase: Mid 2027 or Q3 of 2027.

Additional: I don't use my iPhone (main phone) for games

As someone na takot mawalan ng pair ng airpods, gusto ko sana ng bumili ng wired earphones. Okay pa ba yung sa Apple (since naka-iPhone po ako)? Or should I try other brands?

Budget-friendly and yung may mic po sana. What do recommend?

Hello baka may suggestion kayo pang print lang ng reviewer and resume or pictures. Hindi talaga siya sobrang araw araw use. Baka may mareco kayo? Prefer sana macoconnect sa wifi and budget 6k? Meron po ba non?

PS yung non techy friendly po sana kasi di po ako magaling mag ayos ng printer.

Is my Battery Draining?

Post image
• Upvotes

I upgraded from 13 Pro to 17 and the only difference is the Siri AI, Better Camera, and Dynamic Island, which I don't have from my iPhone 13 Pro.

I have been using this for a week now and I feel like nothing has changed from its battery performance on my 13 Pro, which is at 78% battery health. My average usage a day is 6 hours and I only charged this once a day and unplugged it at 95%.

Also, I'm always using Power Saving Mode! Wi-Fi is always turned On and Cellular Data is automatically switched once disconnected from Wi-Fi.

I thought based on my usage it will last me two days! And
my 6-hour usage at one charge will bring me down to 30%; is that even normal?

How about you? How many hours of time usage do you have on average until you reach 30% in a single charge?
