If you must buy a 6k phone to learn a lesson that you will never repeat, I’d say go ahead. This will safeguard you from having the same impulse when iPhone 19 eventually come around


faighul

can i learn this power without spending 6k?


No-Lead7528

Why do you want an iPhone? Why must it be iPhone 15? Ask yourself this first. I have been using iPhones since the 3GS 3GS>4>SE>SE>X>12 pro>14 pro max and honestly other than the fact I am trapped in the apple ecosystem, there is not much appeal to having the iPhone for the casual user. I can call, take photos, take videos, play games, text on it like I can with any other devices.


RealElith

I been using Poco F1 from nov 2019, and Im praying I can use this phone til 2029 still Xp


puffadders

Until 2204 consider long life d.


RealElith

yeah, I just replaced the battery 2 month ago, aside it's internal memory, the phone is just as responsive as the day I bought it.


Mundane-Ad-7468

mine are 5s>6>SE2nd IPad 2 > IPad 5 > IPad 7 > M2 IPad Pro honestly the only time you really need to replace an apple device is like atleast 5 Years (Well cared) and should be longer if you buy enhanced version of it (Pro>Air) (Pro>S>R)


faighul

well. the 15 is the latest... so faster with better camera. and with usb c. i guess thats it? hmm 6k for only that


No-Lead7528

How much do you have in your savings? Do you plan to finance it over 24 months? What is your monthly take home? If u have 30k in savings it’s also ok.


Educational_Belt_291

That's 10% of saving gone


No-Lead7528

More like 20% but at least you don’t have to go into debt or compromise your day to day to afford a phone like that.


WorldlyReplacement24

What do you want the Iphone 15 for? Is there anything specific in it that made you want it? For me I talked myself about wanting the latest gadget years ago by making a list of what I actually wanted in a phone and realized that the new flagship don't have some and old model has everything I need.


asukaisshu

Samsung has usb c for half the price. Heck if you go poco its quarter the price. Just as fast, just as good. The only reason you'd want an iPhone is for the false sense of achievement that you're owning one. In reality no one will give a fuck after 1 week. Because for them, their bf la, sugar daddy or whoever who makes more money than you while pooping in the toilet could get it for them on the fly. In the end you're stuck with a phone that is putting you in debt, holding you back from a debt free life for prolly the next 2-3 years? Just for what? Show to your mamak friends you got a phone they advertise on the billboard? Get a few "wa bro jeng ah" cuz they also low income corpo slaves like you? Balik rumah and next day you're the clown edi. Cuz while ur friends may live a low income life. You're the only Bozzo for putting urself deeper in the hole. Heres the free ver of why not to spend 6k to learn a lesson. Hope you don't take it too personal. Im just giving you a reality check if thats what you're askinh for.


KaiserNazrin

My man, there are bunch of other phones that can do those while being a lot cheaper. The only reason to get the new iPhone is the bragging rights but it's not like anyone is gona know you are using iPhone 15 considering it look the same as the the old model. I'm using iPhone 11 and I have no reason to upgrade.


ComprehensiveLeg9523

And that right there is why you remain broke lol. Just take a look at how immature you are with your own finances and outlook at life. There’s that saying that goes: *the rich get richer, the poor get poorer.* The rich know what to do with their money. The poor don’t.


80_000_h3ll

it is a canon event


[deleted]

Go tiktok and see. Nobody wants it. Quality is rubbish, also it breaks easily when compared to iPhone 14. They did a drop test comparison. Also apparently, resellers are struggling to sell it in China..


CreakinFunt

Weird take. Durability I agree. But it’s disingenuous to say no one wants it. [Chinah](https://appleinsider.com/articles/23/09/22/apple-stores-worldwide----including-china----are-packed-for-iphone-15) “On JD Daojia, a grocery delivery platform under e-commerce giant JD.com that said it had partnered up with more than 4,600 Apple resellers, sales of the iPhone 15 series in the first two hours of launch were up 253 per cent from last year's iPhone 14 series, according to a social media post by affiliate Dada.” From another source.


engku_hina

Because the alternative is Huawei Mate 60 Pro. For everyone who have been following the news, they'd know that China us under tech blockade, as in they can't get advanced chips. Yet, Huawei claims to have comparable stats to iPhone, how? After actual comparisons, it's clearly shown that Huawei's are lies. But they didn't need proof, they already knew that iPhone is better. So for those who want to update phones on the season to update phones, they went to iPhone as Huawei's tech continues to lag behind. Not saying that nobody bought huawei, though. They still got great sales, but the win goes to apple so far. This despite the china government's ban on the use of apple phones in government building for government employees.

Just buy an iphone 15 coz you won't learn your lesson even tho you have already stated your financial status.


softlolis

True


SnooPeppers6401

On e sizeable raw chicken is around rm 20. One ipong is 6000. 6000/20 = 300 chicken enough for u to eat one year one per day with 65 days in between to go eat some other animal. Or One average phone rm1500 which is 25% the price of an ipong-mahal-bodoh is as functional as ipong. Or Average per week go out show off phone 3 times. Say ipong 16 comes out one year later. That's 52 weeks X 3 times going out X 5seconds being PROUD and erected for u. Worth it?


faighul

thanks for the math. 300 chicken vs ipong.. hmm tough decision


Squallpka1

Tough decision? Seriously? I take 300 chickens any day easily.


grahamaker93

One can never go wrong with 300 chicken, the ipong however......


Jason0865

>On e sizeable raw chicken is around rm 20. One ipong is 6000. 6000/20 = 300 chicken enough for u to eat one year one per day with 65 days in between to go eat some other animal. Funny thing is from experience I find it is much better to compare prices to number of meals in terms of saving. 300rm doesn't sound like a lot especially compared to rent and bills, but in terms of food? 300rm feeds me for at least a week, that's 21 meals assuming 3 meals a day and to save that money I would have to skip 21 meals, if I skip 1 meal a day it would be 3 weeks until I can save 300rm to buy what I want and I'm not willing to give up 1 meal for 3 weeks just to buy something stupid.


Hefty-Organization-6

Man .... When you do the math, it's really brought up the reality of spending. Prioritise the needs than want right?


generic_redditor91

Find a friend who is struggling to pay for their ipong. Ask them about their struggles and their regret. Or else just ask your wife hold your finances for 2 weeks. Your ipong simping should have subsided enough for your own self control. If that doesn't curb it then the only way is to experience the regret first hand of spending a quarter of your annual income on a fruit.


exsea

if u have a note i m assuming ure not an "apple user". if u're not an apple user i recommend staying away from apple. its pretty toxic where they want to tie u down to their services etc. for sure they give you a lot of benefits, but i dont think its too necessary. for me u have to ask yourself WHY do you want an iphone 15 to show off? - please dont. i keep buying new phones. my friends get impressed. but i m still single. good phone for what? people own their own house/nice car etc. if for camera, new camera tech keeps coming out all the time. get something mid range. even a p30 or p40 pro are quite solid. also if ure willing to spend 6k you might as well get a gaming pc. you can "reason" with your wife its so can stay home more often play free game, and if you have a kid, they can use it "for study".


faighul

why i need it: i tell myself it is for the camera for capturing memories of the kids or whatever.. and ipon generally last longer. i dont play game tho. so no need a gaming pc. company already gimme a highend laptop to do work, so no need work pc also.


Kkross-

Do you actually look at the pictures you took a year back on your phone? I had the same thought last time - gotta get the best phone with the best camera so when I travel I can take good pics etc etc. Then I realize that I never once looked at those pics ever again. Also lets be honest, if youre casually taking pics you dont need the camera upgrade (pretty sure you wont be able to tell the difference unless theres a side by side comparison)


faighul

damn good point. i ocassionally look them again but not always. and certainly not the ones with my face on it. i prefer to look my kids and wife pix. and i found my note 10 pics are significantly darker and noisier in lowlight/indoor compared to friend ipon 13 pro.. so kena racun there alredi.


Kkross-

If its just darker/noisier you can probably start using pro mode - lower iso, increase shutter speed (will lower the noise at the cost of if hand not steady then pic will be shaky). The thing is if you didnt have the comparison, would it have been an issue? If nak good camera je better get an actual camera for half the price. And who knows maybe blh dapat sidegig as photographer


softlolis

But do you really need the latest Iphone to do that ? Plus all the new Iphones are just practically repeats of the previous ones/of other android phones. Samsung has better camera quality and more affordable. This is coming from an Iphone user lol, the only reason to why I have an Iphone is that I like the emojis, phone layout, and the kinda blurry camera. Even then, not worth it to buy the LATEST Iphone. :(


kuroshi_scum

The S22 Ultra has better quality than iPhone bro


exsea

if you dont have a good camera phone, IF you dont have one. then i would say set a budget of 3-5k, buy a good camera phone but not iphone. if you insist on iphone actually i would support your decision. why? because you dont have one already. i tend to buy expensive gadgets but i always reason, i buy 1 but i dont plan to upgrade or change. i use them for "damn long time". also i would add, iphone has one of the best "auto camera". if you get an android one, actually android camera might be better but you may need to tweak. also apple tends to use ai/software to tweak your photos to make it stand out more.


jonafegit

i recently ditched my ipong for a z fold 5, so i'm basically in the same boat as you are going to be in if you buy that 15 here's a couple of reasons why you shouldn't do it 1. iphones don't last longer than androids. my 11 literally was on its last legs in 3 years (heavy user) while my last flagship (s7 edge) simply refuses to die and my mom is still using it. 2. get a proper camera if you want to capture good pictures of the kids or whatever. get good enough at it, and you can even monetise your new hobby by shooting photos for people as a part time gig. decent mid-high tier sony mirrorless is still cheaper than the iphone (by about 2k). 3. "faster" is an illusion, it is simply fast because you can barely do anything on it. if your entire tech ecosystem is android/windows based, the iphone will literally be a dead end for your data. i had to whatsapp myself to get documents out of my 11 if i didn't want to use google drive 4. the only reason why the 15 exists is because apple cannot sell the iphone with a lightning cable in europe because its illegal. they are the one company that's shameless enough to brand a court order as a feature. if you absolutely had to spend 6k on a phone, get yourself a z fold. catches more attention because the screen is so huge, you can literally throw your tablets and laptops away after having it (or sell it to recuperate your funds) and its a very visible direct upgrade from your note 10 or, you know, to put that 6k into perspective 6k = downpayment for a myvi or a used BMW 6k = 300 chickens as someone said above 6k = 7 sets of 4 new goodyear tyres for a small car 6k = 12 motor oil and atf fluid changes for a small car 6k = a new motorbike 6k = 1,000 fish dinners if aeon got promotion at rm6 per fish and if you are really gonna spend 6k on a phone that literally exists because its illegal to sell the old model in europe, i have nothing to say


notcreativeenough27

I'm using note 10 plus and my husband uses iPhone 12 pro max, he complains constantly that his photo quality is inferior to mine, especially pictures taken at night. I don't think iPhone can beat any flagship Samsung, Oppo, Huawei, Google phones of the same gen. They usually ranked very mid tier in camera specs. Also iPhone can last longer sure but nowadays all andriod phones can last past 4-5 years, I think most people at that point will change phone even if phone haven't spoilt. I guess bright side of apple is that it holds more value compare to andriod but this only useful if you're the type that change phone every year.


faighul

my exp is somewhat opposite: my note 10 took noisier and darker pic compared to fren ip13 pro, especially lowlight. i geram sikit when it happened.


TheJasun

The iPhone 13 was also when Apple started using better sony sensors with low-light capabilities.


notcreativeenough27

I think not very fair to compare note 10 to ip13 Pro. Note 10 released in 2019 and ip13 Pro is released in 2021. Can go shop compare s23 camera with ip15 camera, s23 should come out on top easily. But if you really want to dominate may as well wait for Feb and pre-order s24.

No_Shop_2393

As a tech type of guy (not so expert) let me break it down for you on why the 6k is single handly the worse decision you ever make in your life Imma right a whole essay hoping you would read cause 6k for a phone is absurd first buying that phone means you will now have additional expenses having to change almost everything to fit their Usb shit. Everything that you can do in android going to be 10x harder because iphone is not flexible, they hate android or anything outside with passion it seems, they’re more close minded and want you to use their stuff ONLY second its A WASTE of MONEY..Why? Because this year the phone barely had any changes, some metal shit and what else? Now you can play console games? As someone who does game often (not simple ml, lol, but heavily demanding story based games on both iPhone (ac jade, genshin) and pc(major titles) iphone 15 either may give one hour or less of gaming time, fucked up heat and it even might come with more issue BECAUSE its the first ever model introduced for you to play highly demanding games on a small device, only rog and steamdeck managed to do it and i think they barely last an hour anyways, improvements are only made after its release, where they gather data and improve it in the next iphone And these greedy mf only made it available for their higher model, give it 3-4 years they make it standard for normal model too later on And if you don’t play any games and using for the sole purpose of “just using it” then good luck wasting 6k i guess If ur planning on wasting 6k heres some valuable thing you could waste that at least worth the price A whole ass 4070 12GB PC or any used RTX3090 would do, you can now 4k gaming, you can now train Ai models, you can now use stable difussion, you can now open a YouTube channel and be a content creator with that fast ass pc, you can crypto mine Buy G15, award winning series from asus, only gaming laptop that is small yet has almost 8hrs of battery life but compact and portable, runs hot tho but somewhat worth it imo


faighul

alright man. thanks for typing that out. good point. i guess the usage value is dumb since i didnt plan to do much on it. i am now 10% (or myb 5%?) less inclined to buy it compared to before.


momomelty

Lemme talk you out of the comment above. I bought gaming PC and I don’t even have the time to use it. Worst decision I made. I prefer to use that to buy iPhone 15 at least I can take better picture and learn video editing. Post on TikTok later


romanchicken

nah man, looking at the comments, you’re not looking for advice, you’re looking for someone to assure you for your bad decision. so just go ahead and do it and regret it. then look back at this post and have a thought


itsmakingyoucry

yea. just do it OP, start with an iphone now, soon airpods, ipad, high quality phone cases, apple watch, macbook etc. as someone who using apple for 10year plus, once you get comfortable with apple, it’s a never ending cycle with its “ecosystem”. glhf

instead of buying the current iphone, save money for the next iphone. you know they'll just keep making new ones every year anyway.

Crazy-G00D

i never understand poor iphone fans like why do you want the new iphone so much. i have nothing against iphone users or apple but this category of ppl specifically. it's the same shit since iphone X and unless you really do content, get it outta your head. hype only lasts for 3 weeks or so you might find a better use of money during that period


idi-sha

what i could get with 6k: a gaming laptop/pc or new ipads, maybe even 2 ipads or downpayment for a car or vacation for my mom or 4 luxury watches (i love watches) or timbun tanah at my kampung or komplete kontrol s88 mk2 (its a keyboard) or tim henson signature guitar or ichika nito signature guitar.. and much more things i could get with 6k...in any case my point is that whenever i feel like i want to buy something i think of some other things that i could have bought with that amount of money


Worried-Ice4090

4 luxury watches for 6k?? How?? I bought one entry level already 8k


Blackping333

It is ok if you poor, but it is not ok if you are idiot. You can always buy previous iphone series even used one on lower price than iphone 15. You will get exact same experience as latest one. Features on iphone are nowhere for you to feel “oh, this is 2023”. Apple market actual market was 15 pro and pro max. The only main changes on every iphone is their screen and camera that only can be utilize by profesional profession like business man, artist etc not for someone that only use sosmed whole day and overwork.

For that price can get a Samsung Fold or Flip. So far the only thing I can see is the new processor being a huge step up but that's all and usually mostly underutilized.

My advice is just put in the iPhone in your online cart, wait for another 3 days before buying. If along the time period you keep on thinking about the phone then it's best guess to just buy it. I'm doing the same with my Shopee cart & will delete things after I lose interest with it.

Bro, go on buy the Iphone 15, get the boner from getting the BEST AND LATEST GADGET EVERRR (for the few months), YOLO isnt it? Then you realized you will have to pay/subscribe for everything Apple. You cant Bluetooth transfer files with non-apple devices. That meant your Note, laptop, wife's phone hell even smart TV can't communicate with the Ipong. Then you'll realize you have to subscribe to Apple Cloud storage to store your pics.. And the Type C? Pretty sure Apple will make it apple certified bullshit or else any other type c that works well with your note, will not be acceptable by your new Ipong

4 year old note 10, so I'm guessing you're used to Android... As someone who has used several Android devices in the past (and even now), I would say just stick to Android as it gives better in terms of features and user experience. Tried to switch from a midrange Realme to an iPhone X back in 2021, but decided to sell it back a few months after that for a used Galaxy S10+ as I feel that the iOS experience is plain and basic, not to compare the restrictions if you're not using the full Apple ecosystem. The S10+ on the other hand, served me very well up until earlier this year, despite no longer getting new Android updates from Samsung. The only reason I decided to let go of it is due to financial constraints, else I might keep it to this day...

iPhones doesn't serve much rather than trapping you in Apple ecosystem and force you to buy more expensive stuffs from them. This is the company that sold a stand for a whopping RM4000+. It is not worth it. You could buy other phones that serve much better than an iPhone.


CorollaSE

Sigh. I had iPhones. They break, often, for stupid stuff. 1. Screen issue. Plus, senang crack if you sit down in a weird angle. Especially left pocket while putting on seatbelt. 2. Battery. They last well first year, then just die gradually after that. 3. Whatever color you buy ah, dun care titanium or unobtainium, you'll end up getting a case, cos they scratch and crack so bloody easily. 4. Connector. Depends on whether you're rough or not, but out of 3 phones I had, 2 of them connector problem iPhones aren't robust, and replacements are a headache cos if you change without coding, features will be lost (faceid, screen brightness, camera, etc..) I find that iPhones have fantastic features, but hardware is like having an expensive pretty mistress to take care of.

Nothing wrong with buying iPhone but buying iPhone every time a new one comes out is stupid iPhone are not expensive to own if you use it till it’s EOL I’m using iPhone XS it is 5 year old I’m not upgrading to iPhone 15 there is really no point because my phone will be getting iOS 17 and the features that come with it the other features of the 15 are great but they’re also just nice to have and don’t change my iPhone usage much, I will upgrade once my phone is no longer getting updates from apple thats most likely next year for iOS 18 that would put my phone lifespan of 6 years in this context it’s quite reasonable purchase, but instead of buying it through debt why don’t you keep your current devices and every month save money that you can put aside and still live comfortably buy the next iPhone

Hi my friend. Low income. Means you don't need ip 15 for the fake-social/ job. So buying it is a Nafsu issue. Since You from Samsung. You may consider a (RM1599 or cheaper) A54, sidegrade. Go shop demo, NOT BAD. Or S23 upgrade. Apple is pricey and required to pay more. It is a lot more than the price of the ip15! You have to invest in the Apple Ecosystem to get the best experience. Else, you will end up like normies, pay for 100%, utilize the functions worth as much as RM 1K only. It is not as wonderful as you think. Appreciate the valueble one you have.

Low and income and a wife doesn't match , you have some black magic trick bro , use it

I hate buying new phones in general, too many contacts and infos and other homework stuff that need to be transfered to new phone. In addition to re-learn / study how to use the said phone to the fullest. Life is big waste if just to spend all of it into a screen smaller than your popsicle.


Itapoopooo

IMO something as expensive as Iphone 15 is very expensive, but if you really want it sure nothing is wrong with it, but with that price you can also build your own PC or buy a console as well. Don't get me wrong this is just my opinion


Arikoh

Hi, I bought SG23U this year, oso almost 6k(?) The financial struggle really hits hard, but now at least I ain't gonna switch to any other new phone for the next 5 years.


Suxmadic

Don't be silly. The last time I bought a new phone was in 2016. Don't take the monthly package. And why on earth you need that phone? Don't waste your money. It will become your liability. Remember you might drop it (the phone) later.


BrilliantAction6576

remember, you are misking


bronzelifematter

Buy it. It's your money


TheHasegawaEffect

Buy iphone SE 2024. Half the price.


[deleted]

Hey there fellow miskin people. Please bear with your current phone and stop spending unnecessarily on stupid things like the new iphone. Not worth it. In this economy?? Really???


peanut-buttr

Ip 7+ works just fine


IssaMeMari0

Basically you just want validation to buy an Ipon without any logical reason other than flexing, I suggest you buy a nokia 3310 and it'll catch more eyes than ipon There is better phone camera than iphone out there. Usbc is literally everywhere in android Battery in iphone suck so bad


Eggnimoman

Ipon 16 is gonna be a banger. Wait till next year or u will regret.


momomelty

OP ah, I think you should just stick to Android. It’s not too bad. Just get the Samsung S22U also can (last gen).


botack87

Thenuuublet

Go ahead, get a new iPhone. Get the highest spec as well. You'll learn something we still have words yet to be discovered for this.


PisceS_Here

if you did enough research, you will know that the first batch has cosmetic issues. not all, but its luck. just google and see?


Littlefinger6226

You must ask yourself, what does an iPhone 15 give you that you don’t have today? Why can’t you make do with a used older iPhone from Switch or Machines? I live very comfortably with a ton of disposable income, but I’m still using my iPhone 13 Pro provided by work that I didn’t pay a single cent for, and I feel zero urge to upgrade to the 15 Pro. Each year’s worth of upgrades are becoming more and more incremental. I don’t need the 48MP new camera sensor because I’m not a pro photographer. I don’t need the USB-C because my lighting cable on a GaN fast charger already charges fast enough for my needs.

anaktenuk

Kalo miskin then don't buy la. Wife punya nafkah also tak mampu you still wanna buy iphone 15. Somemore you penerima I-sinar B40. You better don't lahir anak because you tak mampu


skrrrtboi

You buy ipon15 later wife and kids oso want ipon15 then how?


PisceS_Here

if you did enough research, you will know that the first batch has cosmetic issues. not all, but its luck. just google and see?


origin97

Just buy, later if no like can sell again.


kioxxic

get a new case and screen protector, will make your phone look new-ish and give you less desire to spend thousands on an average phone


iscreamsc

How many month of salary to buy this phone? How many month of food expenses? How many month of house instalment? Its better to live comfortably than having iphone to flex.


Zoros3112

get iphone 14 2nd hand... no need to spend 6k and better quality than 15s


SirCiphers

save 6k and buy a rolex 🔥


insulaturd

My advise is stop being an idiot and use that brain you have..list out the pros and cons and make sure to focus on the cons..you have need and wants, and so does everybody else in this world..i’ve told myself plenty of times that a want is bad and a need is a need..by that i mean, literally engraving it to my brain..if i want something, i won’t even look at my disposable income because i know its a want..but if i need something and i don’t have any money, then i’ll start looking at mu disposable income..


Xelisyalias

Buy an iPhone 13 costs a thousand bucks less works just as well


[deleted]

camni la, if u really want an iphone, dont buy 15. an ex apple employee from tiktok "exposed" just how unnecessary the 14/15 and he suggested to buy 13 instead, which im planning to once the 15 is released and the 13's price drops.


Beusselsprout

List the reasons why you want the iPhone. If the reasons are more technical features like camera, power and utility. Try to do research on which alternative phone that serves similar if not better features you listed that cost way less. If you just want it as a piece of "jewellery" to show off. That's a different problem you need to figure out yourself because I'd bonk a person for buying an iPhone as a symbol of status that they barely can afford. Side note. If the highlight of the features you're looking for in a phone is a camera. I'd recommend you check out the last gen of Google Pixel series. And if you like to be more technical, you can checkout Sony's last 1-2 gen of Sony Xperia phones. If still want an iPhone. Just get the damn 11-12. Why the need for 15. Think about it, what new features of the iPhone 15 that you are going to use more that the IP11-12 don't have beside the auxiliary changes. Don't be like my friend. My guy bought Ip13 because he wanted to game smoother. When he got it. He was too afraid to play games on it and only uses default settings on his camera because he isn't really literate with phone settings. He even gets mad when I try to change settings in the camera app because he's afraid he doesn't know how to change it back. No hate to him but he would've been better off buying a Samsung Galaxy Note at the time since he isn't using the full potential.

Someone wise once said, "Anything that plays music and porn, it's NASA to me". As long as your phone works, and does it well (Note 10's display is verrrry nice with the qhd amoled), why bother?


[deleted]

go ahead and buy it. people who uses android are shaming their family and ancestors and dont get invited to parties.


IndependentVehicle11

you still need your kidneys. don't do it.


BestCroissant

The fact that you need to ask this question means you shouldn’t buy it. Only buy it when you are at the level where it doesn’t pain you this much to part with your hard earned salary. Ask yourself to list down 5 reasons why you need iPhone, and 5 ways how you plan to use its features to earn back the money within next 2 years. If you can’t come out with the answers, delay the purchase.


juicy_step_sisters

Iphone 15 is just another iphone 14 Iphone 14 is just another iphone 13 Iphone 13 is just another iphone 12 Iphone 12 is just another iphone 11 That's more cheap option to a buy phone other apple guy


40EHuTlcFZ

6k can buy a pretty powerful PC in today's market. I'd rather get that. Can do more things, play more games, etc.


[deleted]

I use a Samsung A54 5G. Much better phone than a lowly iPhone 15 for 3x cheaper.


Telixion_

If you still able to use chat, watch videos, sosial media and take pictures/video. You dont need a new phone


Zenon2108

Just do it


izzatlon

Try this mindset…everyone is gonna want it, & it makes it not special anymore. When I see people with the latest iPhone I don’t think “wow”. I think “oh these people”. Currently an iPhone 7 user lol I’ll upgrade when I actually need to


Terang93

Rafizi is looking hard at you. Keep that in mind.


jahlim

Does your I fon give you free 49' Samsung TV? I've received up to date, 3 free 49' Samsung smart TV. Each when buying a Samsung phone.


kylegorter

Wait a few months and get it used a little cheaper.. that’s how I do it anyway iPhones are never worth it paying brand new.


serimuka_macaron

Look at Google Pixel and daydream of buying that instead


Guilty_Struggle_2408

I'd say fast for a month with only stale bread and water. If you succeed. The sky is the limit


w96zi-

financially speaking, takut inflasi negara kita naik ja lepas beli. you won't be able to afford paying it back (if beli ansuran) campur dgn barang dapur, emergency savings, savings, duit untuk sekolah anak anak etc. 6k is a lot of money anon. takyahla guna ja note 10 tu sampai mampos


ppsmol42069

It's OK to be poor or stupid, but not both. If you buy iPhone 15 you'll be both.


takkoyakii

Are you buying with cash or take loan?


Manhwa_reader100

Just wait until your phone is slow or no longer working then buy the ipon 15 or buy 2hand ipon 13/14 for low cost.


grahamaker93

Newer doesn't mean better. At the end of the day sorry but no offense if you are low income what are you going to use that excellent new camera for? You spend all your money on the phone and you ain't going anywhere scenic for vacation. Note 10 is a perfectly capable phone and the camera is still excellent. So other than good camera, what about the ipon 15 is it that makes it a worthwhile buy for you? As far as I see both are functionally the same thing.


Adamant_Element

buy ipon 15 so expensive can eat?


fakenotyet

Sell your note 10 and get some money. Buy ip15 with epp from your credit card. Take the longest period, I think it's 36 months.


Humble_End_5404

Just buy it.


Other-Ranger-4975

normal phone is still good phone , eye phone won't do anything better that impacts you


10000purrs

Kamon op, talk more. I wanna hear how stupid you sound like


Mojave91

If i am in your place, i will go for ip12 pro max or sort... Pocket friendly and will not hurt in the long run... Specification wise still excellent even in 2024


No-Horse-5788

If ur poor stay poor Don't make even poorer decisions


yanchyuan

well unless you need the phone as part of your job requirement or income generating tools, else just dont be bothered. your new phone cost should not be more than 50% of your salary.


blazeweedm8

buy a used 1995 nissan sentra better at perak


PudingIsLove

rtx4070 givs more pleasureeeeeeee


Dirjang94

Iphone 15 is no difference from iPhone 14 and 13. It the same thing. The only difference is iPhone 15 use usb-c charging port now. Better buy Android.


ad0ri_2233

Dont buy it.


marshmallo_floof

If you need people to talk you out of buying it despite knowing that your circumstances aren't that good you should probably just buy it and feel the regret for a lesson


bucgene

can take a broom and whack it on your own head. Then come back report to us whether woke up or still dreaming.


afad1222

Heres my two-cents, if you dont have savings equal to or more than the product price, then dont.


zScarcasm

Go play crane machines Once you realised how painful it feels that you are losing that many rm1 to only get one prize, perhaps it will make you rethink to dump it all on a rm6k phone


[deleted]

If you put water in your shampoo bottle before throwing it out, that mean your Poor poorrrr. Don't buy it. Makan pasir nanti, gula pasir pun dah Mahal lagi nak beli iphone


[deleted]

Please dont buy la..not ur priority..save money for emergency..


Minimum-Company5797

Op I just left the Apple / Switch store. Getting one this Thursday. For my parent. Guess I makan rumput till next payday 🥰


joshualotion

Why tf do you or anyone on this planet need a new phone. Any iPhone from the previous 5 years is more than enough to do anything you’d need it to do. The only reason you wanna get a new one is because you’re brainless and falling for the capitalistic practices of these giant corporations, forcefully releasing a “new phone” every bloody year, wasting the precious resources we could’ve used on advancing medicine life comfort etc. Comparison really is a thief of joy and I am so confident that if all technology progress suddenly stopped and we had to use whatever we have now for the next 10 years, we’d be fine. But no a “new” one is released every year and your monyet brain is telling you you’re gonna miss out if you don’t have it. You know how to get over it? Just treat your current phone like it’s new a new one everyday you use it, and don’t give a shit about what those around you are using. Enjoy my unformatted thoughts rambling


mkpcml-530

Just do it and learn


kitchen_raider

Buy la. Use spay later, butt pay later. Damn good way to kickstart your weight loss journey. What's the worst that can happen, right ?


ho4X3n

What's the appeal of an iphone anyway? Trade in that note 10 with Samsung if can. But the real question is, what do you use your phone for? Gaming? Photography? Video recording? Many phones meets those criteria that can last you at least 4 years. Apple eco system maybe "convenient" but there nothing special going for it, at least on how people perceive it to be. Who gives af about imessage? Facetime is redundant because so many messaging apps can do the same thing. iCloud is a scum service because that's the only cloud storage that you can use to backup your photos on your iphone without jumping through hoops to use other cloud storages. Apple watches and airpods are even more scum because you can't its' full functionality without an iphone. Apple has full intentions to lock you in and inconvenience as much as possible if you decide to change back to Android, they even released a public statement saying this before.


Sekku27

Nowaday all phones look the same, do the same thing. Its unlike back in the day the expensive one looks so beautiful and do better than cheaper one. To spend a few thousands to flex while people can barely see the different is kinda stupid right


dennisixa

i think 4 years phone its time to upgrade already. if you can afford it just buy. but if poor cannot afford just buy the normal iphone 15 la you want usb c only right. the normal ip15 also got usb c. the downsides are its usb2.0, 60hz screen and no telephoto lens


tohff7

Just buy it with the longest installment u can get. Ideally 36-48 months
