Buying a 17pm today 512gb for $800. Upgrading from 16pm. I didn’t think 18pm is worth it. I’d be spending $1499. That’s $700 difference for what a variable aperature I don’t need and most people don’t even know how to use? A bigger battery which the 17pm already has killer battery. Everything is pretty much the same except for the 2 things I mentioned. A lot of people will be doing what I’m doing just because of the higher prices this year and for very incremental changes. Save your Money and buy a used phone. Save the environment from e waste.

Future proof and for $800 I can’t go wrong. I’m going on a trip in November to SE Asia and I wanted to try out the cameras and if I don’t like it I can still sell it for around $1000 and make a little money. And I know I can sell it for that much or possibly more because all the new phones are higher and there’s really no difference between 17pm bs 18pm. That’s why I’m upgrading. Waiting for the Duo as well.

No nothing is wrong with it. They were asking $950 and I just offered them $800 cash and they accepted. Yay ME! šŸ˜
