The iPhone 14 series is now on sale. A friend asked me whether I would buy the 128GB version or the 256GB version. I believe this is also a very troublesome thing for many people. After all, there is a price difference of 900 yuan between the two versions.
will cost an additional 900 yuan to increase the capacity of 128GB, and the purchase budget will be greatly improved. Apple is really too thief in this regard. It is not kind to make more money. On the other hand, Android manufacturers basically have only about 300 yuan in price difference.
It is precisely this reason that consumers who buy Apple will have a dilemma. is worried that it will not be enough to purchase the 128GB version, and the 256GB version will be given up because of its too expensive price.
If you also face such a problem when choosing an iPhone 14, then let’s take a look at my usage. Let me draw a conclusion first, that is, is not recommended to buy the 128GB version of iPhone 14. has been used by Apple, and there are two reasons.
First of all, 128GB of memory really doesn't last a year. Whether you play games or not, 128GB capacity cannot be used for one year without cleaning up the space. Take the iPhone 13 I used as an example. After using it for half a year, it has consumed nearly 120GB of memory.
If you use it for a while, you may add some WeChat messages or photos, then 128GB capacity is not enough, and I have not installed any games. If you want to play games, then 128GB capacity is far from enough.
So if you buy iPhone 14, is planned to be used for two or three years, then it is best to directly choose the 256GB or 512GB version, because the larger capacity can ensure that you can use it for longer.
Of course, if you don’t care about it, you can also consider cleaning WeChat’s cache and chat history frequently, and then uploading photos to the cloud, which can save some space. But I think it’s quite troublesome to do this frequently, and you can choose as needed.
Secondly, if you plan to purchase the iPhone 14 Pro series model, it is more necessary to choose a version above 256GB, because there are differences in shooting functions of 128GB.
iPhone 14 Pro series supports ProRes video shooting, up to 4K and 30FPS, but the 128GB version only supports up to 1080P and 30FPS, , so if you want to get a better shooting experience, it is best to buy the 256GB version when choosing the Pro series.
That is to say, whether from the perspective of use or from the perspective of function, the 128GB version is not the best choice. If you only have a budget of 6,000 yuan and can only buy the 128GB version of iPhone 14, then my suggestion should not consider iPhone 14, but buy the 256GB version of iPhone 13.
The actual price of iPhone 13 in some channels is around 5,500 yuan, which is equivalent to a thousand yuan cheaper than iPhone 14 with the same capacity. I suggest everyone choose iPhone 13, mainly because the upgrade of iPhone 14 is actually very small.
Compared with iPhone 13, the latest iPhone 14 just replaced the processor with the same A15 chip as iPhone 13 Pro, , but it is still an A15 chip in essence, but it is just that GPU has an additional core.
, and , the ultra-wide-angle camera has a larger aperture, but in terms of actual experience, it is also a very limited upgrade. , as for the newly added car accident detection and satellite communication functions, there is nothing to say, and it doesn't make much sense to users.
has the same appearance and a very limited upgrade range. The price is thousands of yuan more expensive than the discounted iPhone 13. Such a mobile phone is not worth buying no matter how you look at it. So what will you choose? Welcome to comment, like, share and talk about your views.
