I have mixed feelings every 2 years when my contract is up. I am excited to get a new Iphone. I hate going through the process of ordering a new phone through AT&T.
I looked at the options and picked an Iphone 13 Pro with 256GB storage. Price was $568 with the business price and 2 year commitment discount. After a week I checked on the status. Turns out the order was in a frozen state. An AT&T rep had to cancel the order and re-order it. Phone showed up a week later. Good timing as my Fuji XT-2 just broke.
I like how the Iphone 13 Pro has 3 lenses. I use the telephoto and light wide angle lenses often. The very wide angle lenses I don’t like as I don’t like the distorted view. The resolution and colors are very good.
The macro function is very good. Combined with the amazing minimum focusing distance you can get very close and take photos of small things. Overall I prefer the image quality and the ability to modify raw images the Fuji XT-2 produces but the Iphone fits in my pocket.
Lake Cuyamaca photos take with Fuji XT-2.
In comparison to my old Iphone 11 the 13 is faster and has a brighter and clearer screen. Battery life is better. The 256GB of storage will come in handy if I decide to use my phone exclusively as my camera. Right now there is 198GB free. Carplay works great in my HR-V. I’m glad I upgraded as the battery in my Iphone 11 was not holding a charge very well.
Nice pictures of Lake Cuyamaca!
Thanks!
I’m still on an iPhone 6 lol. I might finally break down and get an iPhone 13 around the holidays if there are any deals through Apple or my carrier (Verizon). About the only thing I want on it is the better camera.
That’s amazing your battery is still working. I notice after 2 years my phone needs lots more charging.
The macro function and the telephoto lenses are a big improvement on the 13 Pro.
