The 69,900 is for the 128GB and 79,900 is for 256GB. When I saw 5K for 256GB I was pleasantly surprised vs the 14K more for Pro 256GB. Short lived. | ||

| ![]() So I have an iphone 6s plus which is now almost 4 years old. Thinking of upgrading to iphone 11 pro or 11 pro max. I will be getting it from USA if at all i decide to buy. Not much inclined towards iphone 11 as i would like to try the OLED screen this time not that the LCD on the 11 will be bad, my wife has iphone XR and the screen is perfectly fine untill you compare it with iphone X or XS's screen side by side. What do you think, any opinions? Should i try the upcoming pixel 4 or stick to iphone. really confused. |

| ![]() Please help me understand what is the real advantage of the Pro’s third camera over the two camera of the 11? They both seem to have ultra wide zoom so in practical usage what’s the advantage in the pro? |

Do you wish to stay in the Apple ecosystem? If yes, going for an iPhone is a no-brainer. 11 pro is pretty good, though 11 is no slouch either (since you want an OLED, go for 11 pro). As for pixel devices, they have faced quality issues right out of the bat and they do tend to get slower progressively. If you are the kind of person who changes his phone pretty frequently, go for a pixel. If you wish to keep your phone for at least 3-5 years, go for an iPhone. Also, pixel phones have much better cameras historically (though we need to compare 4XL to 11pros), but Apple ecosystem is better in overall experience. | |

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() The best feature addition from yesterday was that the new iPad pro now comes with a USB-C type connector. Pen drives, SD cards can be used easily. The 3rd lens added to the camera is the next best thing that I saw yesterday. nothing else was really great. Quote:

| ![]() Had bought my iPhone 6s 64gb from Dubai back in 2016 for around 47k (after converting from AED). The difference was around 12-15k compared to prices in India (not including online deals)! Was planning to buy the XR sometime next year. I guess looking at the reduced prices, it wouldn't make sense to buy it from abroad, would it? I read somewhere that the XR is assembled in India & that seems to be the only affordable ![]() |

| ![]() "NOTCH meri jaan hoke magan tu chhod ke saare kintu parantu" If the reports of no notch iphone screens for 2020 are true then 2020 is the year to get one if people are interested in an iphone. We still need to wait for reviews and comparisons to see if Apple has beaten Google in the photography department and if the claimed Night mode is as good as Pixel if not better. Camera plays a major reason for people to decide in today's world. Apple should have atleast given default base storage of 128GB for the price they sell. End of day should one pay over a lakh for an Iphone? |

| ![]() I have never been an Apple fan. I always found them overpriced for the value they offer. In phones, I feel Iphone 6 onward the phones are grossly overpriced for what they are. I fail to understand why even in 2019 Apple still is selling phones with a LCD screen and a ugly large notch, when even 20k phones these days come with Super AMOLED screen and a full screen display. From the specs, I guess there is nothing apart from brand pull that will make people buy this phone. |

![]() Its USD 599+Taxes = which will be around USD 640 depending on the state you are in. So thats a 3-4K difference which is ok in my opinion. Quote:
P.S: IPad Pro has been getting the USB C port since last year. For now, I am happy with my white iPhone XR. Only wish I got a jhataak colour instead. | ||

True that. The stores will sell it discounted further with offers, in India. Quote:

That being said, it is the draw of a clean and mindless OS that pulls & retains majority of the users towards iOs. Expensive or not, is a personal perception. I don't mind paying what is asked for, for iOs devices. Last edited by riteshritesh : 11th September 2019 at 15:55. | |||

Can't argue with you about the notch but have you used the iPhone XR with the LCD screen. I assume you have not. The LCD screen is really good and you don't really notice the difference. | |

One can give other points that work in favor of the Xr, but its screen is not one of them. | |
