Depends, if you use a lot of storage or not. I'd say go for the double of how much storage, you are currently using on your XS. But storage is severely overpriced on iPhones, so it is hard to say. If you truly need 1TB, I would go for the 13 Pro. I struggle to fill out 128 GB, but maybe that is just me.
thank you so much for your response!
ah i see, i think i would easily fill above 128gb since i play a lot of games with big storages (genshin, honkai). so maybe 256gb might be not too future proof?
but do you think the new features on 14 pro are making it worth to opt for it instead of the 13 pro? something something dynamic island and whatnot...
eta: fixed the storage detail numbers.
No worries! Could be you would have to manage storage a bit, if you go with 256 GB. Question is, if the savings are worth the time you use on storage management. only you can answer that.
The biggest differences are the Dynamic island and a 48 MP camera sensor. Maybe check out some camera comparisons between the models. I think they are notable upgrades, but not something I would pay a fortune for.
i personally wouldn’t mind saving up 200 usd & more just for storage management haha, considering the average salary in my country is only around 100 usd [cries].
anyways, thank you so much once again for your insight! i would definitely take into consideration the small amount of update from 13 pro to 14 pro and contemplate whether it’s worth the price or not.
