iPhone 13 Pro Review in 2024: Budget Flagship!
Are you looking for a flagship experience at a budget price? In this review, I explore the iPhone 13 Pro in 2024 and how it stands up as a budget flagship. Released in September 2021, the iPhone 13 Pro has depreciated considerably, but still offers exceptional features:
Design: Nearly identical to the latest models, minus the pill cutout and USB-C.
Display: 120Hz OLED Super Retina with Pro Motion technology.
Cameras: Three 12MP cameras (standard, wide, zoom) plus a LiDar sensor.
Performance: Super fast with an A15 Bionic chip, still among the fastest phones available.
Software Support: Expect 4-5 more years of iOS updates, ensuring longevity.
At around £400 for a like-new 13 Pro with 512GB storage, this phone offers unbeatable value. Watch as I dive deeper into its features and performance in 2024!

2018 iPad Pro is Awesome in 2024 | Review
มุมมอง 18K6 หลายเดือนก่อน
The biggest issue with the 2018 iPad pro is that it has aged too well! I have been using mine for many years and absolutely love it still and have no intention of upgrading. Is it worth you buying one? Yes, yes it is. This is a wicked device in 2024, and still holds up great.

iPhone X Review in 2024: Worth $100?
มุมมอง 16K7 หลายเดือนก่อน
When Apple announced that the iPhone X wasn't going to be receiving iOS 17, the prices of used iPhone X's quickly dropped significantly. 7 years after its original release, you can pick up an used iPhone X for around £100/$100. So the question is, should you? Well, maybe. I'd recommend the 2020 iPhone SE as a better value phone for £100. BUT, if you are able to find a mega deal and want a slick...

Casio AQ-230 Vintage Style Watch Review
I ended up getting the iPhone 13 Pro through a cell phone repair company for 450 bucks. The phone looked pretty much brand new late scratches on the screen, but put a screen protector on it as well as a case can’t tell the difference the battery is at 86% battery health, but I’ll be redoing the battery replacement within the next month or so It’s on the new iOS 18 and seems to be performing very well. No need to upgrade as I was looking into the 15 pro or 16 pro and a lot more money this phone still offers a lot for the bang for the buck and I’m very satisfied with this device and the choice that I’ve made moving forward. Apple says that they are going to support this phone until 20 28 x 20 2030 The phone will probably do calls taxes may serve some stuff, but it being limited at that time by that time other iPhones would be on the market.
My 12.9” iPad Pro (512 GB, Cellular) with a Logitech keyboard case will be six years old in another month. It cost about $1,700 US but it was money well spent. It works today as well today as it did when I bought it and there’s no danger of running out of memory. It does need a new battery but $200 is cheap compared to buying a new iPad. It is running 18.1 but won’t have AI, which I have no need for. Of course, I’ve been tempted by the M series chips and the OLED display every time a new one is announced but it is simply not worth the money to upgrade. I’d like to think that Apple has been kicking itself for making the 2018 so good because people aren’t so anxious to upgrade every couple of years.
Older iphones are just better
Iphone 11 as of November 2024 is still one of the best budget ios phone imo.
I have always loved the 13 lineup. I have the red iPhone 13 and I’m thinking about getting an iPhone 13 Pro. Thank you for your video.❤
iPad Pro 2018 is an amazing device that still more than gets the job done. So is the new 2024 version. In 2030 we’ll be talking about how we aren’t upgrading to the iPad 2030. 😂
I cheaped out and bought 64gb version back in the day... I am finally upgrading to refurb 2021 version as i need more space... Else i am perfectly happy with the 2018 one
Should I keep my air 2 for now?
I’m thinking about changing the strap with leather strap, may I know what the strap size is?
I switched back to this kindle. Paperwhite just sucks compared to my beloved kindle. Bought new one, just because I couldn't send any epubs on there, but now I found the way. It just has a better experience in everything
how do you do it?
I really wish I still had my original kindle. lol. Would be amazing to see someone review it.
Good for music and movies with 128 Gig.
I'm still salty about Amazon removing the audiojack and speakers from newer kindles. They downgraded the kindles and everyone was just ok with that 😠😭
I have this conspiracy theory that they did it to sell audiobooks. Because audible. If text to speech had continued to improve and existed till today, it would have sounded more natural which would eat into the sales of audiobooks. That’s why they brought audible to the new Kindle’s along with bluetooth
saying that facetime is laggy on an iphone x is wild, i literally gone on facetime with an iphone 4s in 2024
Not my post, but I get the same issue even with a new battery and latest available iOS. www.reddit.com/r/iphone/comments/brl0no/why_does_my_iphone_x_get_so_laggy_while_using/
Same iPad i have still working smoothly ❤
the main thing for me is the software support. It’s pretty much useless when they drop it, no?
It will stop getting new features but will continue to get security updates for a few more years and will work fine
Fue uno de los últimos modelos con altavoces incluidos, tengo el Kindle DX Graphite que salió el mismo año y era la "alternativa" con pantalla más grande (9,8")... también tiene altavoces, puerto jack 3,5mm... le instalé *Doukan* que es un sistema operativo alternativo con mejor soporte para PDF y EPUB. Es dual boot así que puedo intercambiar entre Kindle OS y Doukan OS apretando una sola tecla durante el reinicio. Uso Calibre y Kindle Comic Converter (KCC), en mi opinión es el mejor Kindle antiguo para leer PDFs (as in) y mangas, por la pantalla de casi 10", hoy en día existe el *Scribe* (10") pero cuesta una fortuna, estos modelos viejos se pueden encontrar por menos de 50 dólares (depende el país). El único problema es que no son fáciles de usar, hay que tener algo de experiencia en informática... y quizás también animarse a cambiarle la batería si lo requiere. Como ya no cuentan con soporte oficial de Amazon, hay que aprender algunas cosas extra para poder usarlos, no es tan fácil como: comprarlo, prenderlo, entrar a la tienda, comprar un libro y leerlo. Para el que no se de maña con las PCs y buscar soluciones en línea, recomiendo solo comprar modelos antiguos de la 7ma generación (2014) en adelante.
I had it from new and it has been my longest lasting Apple device. Absolutely love it and I'm not gonna change it anytime soon...the only thing that is a little disappointing is that it's not getting software updates anymore.
It’s funny you say that, it’s also been my longest lasting Apple device
After this phone Apple stupidly removed the physical SIM in the U.S.
Got a 16 pro 512 gb but thinking to return it I am a first time iphone user Don’t know how would I feel after using 13 pro
First time and you went for the 16 pro? I don't think that was the best move to make. I'm also planning to get an iphone for the first time. But I'm looking at getting a 13 or 13 pro atm

I just got a Series 4 with 95% battery health and it’s amazing. No complaints at all. 👌🏻😮💨
Glazement
Can you do sleep tracking on a series 4?
My 2018 pro is still astonishingly good.
The watch is fantastic and is much more enjoyable to have than an expensive and fragile Swiss watch, that only shows the time and day of the week. Casio has great and reliable watches for everyone. If you are not happy with this one, you will surely find another that brings you satisfaction and pleasure to use. Congratulations on the video. This watch brings back fond memories of my father and grandfather. I certainly prefer it in the old style.
Just got a refurbished 2018 12.9 to replace my 2015 12.9 - love it. And it’s running on iOS 18.
You will love it. The dimensions of the 2018 are much better than the 2015. I still have my 12.9” iPad Pro but it is just too big for carrying around. It still works just fine but no more software upgrades for it and the battery is shot.
I have the iPad 10th gen but edit photos do you think it’s worth buying this one ?
I have a 2020 iPad Pro 11" (2nd gen) for 2 years now. My question is, should I switch to the iPad Air M2 because the Apple Intelligent feature won’t be supported on my iPad? How big and good is this apple intelligent! Honestly that’s the only reason I’m considering
No
I don't call 400+ budget, I call the s21 Ultra at 287 USD budget :) just how the market is man, iPhones are pricey
Cause the iPhone 13 pro will still be supported until 2028, the S21U will only get the next android update, so 2025... The iPhone will literally be supported longer than most android flagships released last year or possibly this year too lol
Not sure you’ll see this but do u mean 4 or 5 iterations more of updates from iOS 17 or 18 in your opinion?
I have the 2018 IPAD Pro 12.9 256gb. It works great for me in Genetics!!
Does that version support arabic writings??
i bought mine for 500 and it was the cheapest lol
$500 is actually a good deal
You can not replace the battery oficially, if you replace it (available in non-Apple service only) they are no longer water resistance. I wish it could be possible, battery health on my AW4 LTE is 77 % only🙏
That roku gin is tempting 😋
Try the skmei version good backlight and 50 meters water resistant=£15.00
Team rose gold AW series 4 over here! My battery health is at 99% after all these years😭😅🤘🏽 but that’s just honestly because I haven’t really used it since I got it when it first released lol it’s just been off for all those years and I just finally started using it again. I love this watch so much🙂 the display is amazing
Do you have any rough estimate on how long yours lasts? I have one with 100% battery health but loses 10% in an hour
@@EckoTheFox1 Mines typically lasts for about half a day. It does drain battery super quick lol but then again, I have the Clockology app running at all times for my watch faces so that can play a big part of my battery drain
@@1KYLORENN That’s what I’ve been noticing with mine as well, definitely goes 24 hours, but not much more than that. I have the “Modular” watch face with my battery, weather, sound level enabled lol
I’m having trouble logging into my Amazon account. It keeps saying that my account or password is wrong (I’ve double checked it). Is it still possible to log in to it?
Yes it is possible. I imagine this is because of 2FA requirements that this kindle doesn’t support. I managed to find a get around if you search kindle 3 2FA you should be able to find a solution.
I've had this e-reader now for ten years, and sadly, it's time to replace it. I've loved it very much all this time. It's just that now I can feel that the buttons for page-turning are starting to go, and it's not holding a charge very long anymore. Most of all, it's no longer supported, and I'm unable to retrieve old books to send to it anymore. RIP Kindle 3. You were a much-loved e-reader. Hello, Kindle Paperwhite. It won't be the same, but hopefully we will have many good reading memories for the next ten years. 😃
can you listen to audio books on it
Yes, you can as long as they are mp3.
Love from srilanka
For the price Casio could have added at least 50meters. Anyone agrees?
Thanks for your video! Trying to avoid consumerism. It helped to chill. I also own a Pro 2018. Thinking about changing its battery at Apple. Any thoughts?

I just upgraded from my 2018 iPad Pro I wish I switched to 11 tho 😅
I think I'm getting served up a lot of these older videos because I'm debating this, and while the 2018 Pro does about 95% of the things I want it to, I'm thinking about upgrading because I cheaped out on my 2018 Pro (256Gb WiFi) and am considering jumping to the M4 because I want to increase my storage capacity and get a cell-phone modem to go with it. And I think it speaks to Apple's engineering that the machine is so solid that it's still my daily driver tablet six years out. It's probably the longest I've held onto any single portable device, including laptops. Also, and I can't deny it, the OLED screen is gorgeous, and as someone who appreciates OLEDs for media consumption (and games), I also consider the upgrade worth investigating even though I am otherwise happy with the 2018's screen. Lastly, now that the 2024 has an upgraded screen on both models, I'm also debating between the 11 and the 13. I very much appreciate the extra screen space for media consumption but it's hard to whip out on airplanes, although I wonder if that has more to do with the Smart Keyboard than the tablet itself...
If you like the look of this casio don't let any qualms people have put you off. I got the black version at a discount and don't regret it.
