I am planning to buy an iPhone 5. Which storage size should I buy?

I have about 400 songs, not many apps (maybe a page or two of games most not exceeding 300mb. Think: Angry Birds and the like), planning to take a decent amount of photos (50? Ill probably sync them onto iTunes and delete them off the phone), not many videos (maybe 5 minutes, again, sync and delete), and have no movies or tv shows. So 16, 32, or 64?

As Peter says. The choice is yours alone. The standard advice is: "it is better to have more storage than you need, rather than need more storage than you have".  Temper this advice with the amount of money you are willing to spend.

    You can buy a factory unlocked on direct from Apple sim free, make sure you get the right one and not just a contract free one.  I am sure  one of our US members will be able to give you the price.

  • Which macbook pro should I buy?? 13 or 15??

    I am planning to buy a macbook pro but I don't know which macbook pro I should buy.
    Games are not that important to me, however I play games such as call of duty, nba 2k, need for speed sometimes. Portability is important to me because it is compulsory for bringing laptops to school. I am confused on buying which macbook pro because the gpu of 13 is bad but 15 might be too big and heavy.
    So which macbook pro should I buy?

    Hi Lawrence,
    You've point out some of the important factors. For me, the choice would be easy. I'd gladly put up with a bit more bulk/weight to have a 15" display. ymmv

  • Which NI devices should I buy and how to start with?

    Greetings!
    I am an undergraduate who is trying to design a control system which can measure chemical solution conductivity as well as PH value; besides, based on those values, we need to control 4 valves to open and close so that acid, base, water,and salt from 4 tanks can flow into the main pipe.
    Question: Which NI device should I buy and start with? The devices have to have at least 4 input/output, do you have any suggestion, Thank you very much!!
    I am also new to LabVIEW, so any extra suggestion would be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you , we are considering purchasing NI USB-6008
    http://www.ni.com/products/usb-6008/
    Doest it work with the following PH sensor, one specification says that it has output voltage of Output 0-5 vdc, does NI USB-6008 accept it?
    Model A1004 pH Transmitter
    Warning
    Do not short the power connections. Wrong wiring of the signal and power wires will result in
    permanent damage to the unit instantly.
    Specs:
    Range 0-14pH
    Power: 12vdc 500ma nominal
    Output 0-5 vdc
    Material ABS
    Calibration trim pots
    Distance up to 50ft
    Model A1004 is a pH transmitter designed to be used with PLCs and microprocessors that accept
    analog input of 0-5vdc.
    Connect any general purpose pH sensor to the transmitter. Double junction sensor is preferred.
    Calibrate unit with 4 and 7 pH buffer solutions. Use zero trim pot to adjust 4pH and span trim pot to
    adjust 7pH..Fine tune adjustment is done with span trim pot.
    If you do not have a sensor , short the bnc connector ,this will simulate 7pH and observe output voltage
    of 2.5vdc.
    Din connector provides power and signal from one cable.
    Note.: When connecting signal and ground to the PLC input ,use .01uf capacitor across signal
    and ground to filter any noise issues.

  • Which iPad Retina should I buy in the US so it will work in the UK?

    I am going to the States next month and want to buy the new iPad there.  Which iPad Retina should I buy in the US so it will work in the UK, the AT&T or Verizon model? I'm probably staying with O2, but can't tell if different models are sold in the UK, or if its just the one.  If just the one, I can't find which model number it is for the UK. The apple store website isn't exactly clear on which model(s) is/are sold in the UK.

    Hi,
    We don't have cellular, but I have often read many ques. and answers here just for my own info when we were first buying. I do know that in the past, Verizon had a different system than ATT and others. That could all have changed with LTE. I checked a couple of articles and found the following links which might help you. PLEASE NOTE these were published in March and May of 2012, so things might have changed with the new ipad 4. Also note that you can buy a cellular here without a contract that you could then set up with your own UK phone company.

    You also said you wanted retina display and then said you were probably staying with 02. If by that you mean the ipad 2, I want to let you know that the ipad 2 does NOT have the retina display. That would mean you'd have to get the old discontinued 'new' ipad or the ipad 4. And if I were you, I would not even think of buying an old 'new ipad, even if there's a great sale on them. I'd go straight to the ipad 4.
    Make sure you do as much research as possible.
    Hope this helps.

  • Which macbook pro should i buy if i use finalcut7?the i5 or i7?

    which macbook pro should i buy if i use finalcut7?the i5 or i7?

    Either one will do the job.  The more powerful the CPU, the faster it will perform.  I suggest that if the budget is tight, go for the i5, if not go for what the bank account will allow.
    It is nice to have a fast CPU, but they are not essential to the overwhelming applications that most people use, especially in a non-vocational context.  On this forum there are the 'speed freaks' who will tout the virtues of faster CPUs, yet most have never compared two MBPs side by side and experienced the differences of real world results.

  • Can i buy the iPhone with international sim card, can i buy the iPhone with international sim card

    International sim card

    I don't know about an international sim card. You can buy the iPhones unlocked in selected countries as they are legally required to sell them unlocked. Such as here in New Zealand. The unlocked iPhones can be used with any carriers micro sim cards.

  • Buying First iPhone Tomorrow Curious if I should get 16gb or 32gb

    Getting my first iPhone tomorrow and curious which would be the best choice.I've had a 30gb 5th Generation iPod for some time which is full... so should I go for the 32gb iPhone..?

    I should have posted this question some time ago. I just got my 32G 3Gs this morning and I'm very happy with it.
    I originally had reserved the 16 but when I actually got in line at the Apple store this morning I had second thoughts and forked over the extra $100 for the privilege to own the 32.
    This is the way I see it. Ultimately, I opted for the 32G because I didn't want to regret. The reason I was originally thinking 16 was because unless like your situation where people actually have a gazillion tunes, an extra 16 might be an overkill. So, looks like in your case, logic dictates that you should opt for the 32 because you've stated that you've filled up 30G on the ipod and that's just in music.
    Remember, the iphone 3Gs has video capability as well so you'll need space for that. I think the 32 was meant for people like yourself. You've actually managed to fill 30Gs. Unless you can tidy up and be efficient, meaning you offload pics/videos/movies etc. on a regular basis, you'll probably need the larger space. It's a crap shoot. But for you, unless you're going to trim your music collection, how are you going to get anything else on a 16? Bear in mind, also, if you want to have movies ripped on it, it's probably best to get the bigger drive. Hope this helps. $100 is a lot of money, but regretting if worse. Which way do you want to err?

  • Which Colour Laser should I buy?

    I have given up trying to get my Apple LaserWriter pro 630 to work with 10.6 so now I need to buy a new printer. Which reasonably priced colour laser printer should I buy?
    I have a 27" iMac, a 24" imac, 17" Powerbook G5 and hopefully soon a second generation iPad which all need to print to the laser. The printer needs to take ethernet possibly wirelessly and USB would be a bonus. I don't have a very heavy usage but it must be capable of occasionally printing up to 200 copies.
    On principle I wouldn't buy Dell after the 1997 comment!!
    Do you have any suggestions?
    Many thanks
    David

    There is a good discussion on Macintouch today about color laser printers, and how the cost of consumables can greater than the cost of the printer itself. You should keep that in mind as you consider your options. The print quality is very good on most of them, USB and ethernet is pretty standard, with wireless a common option these days. But it is not necessarily the case that a color laser is less expensive to operate than an inkjet. I have both, and I think they have about the same costs. I save the laser for multiple copies, and prints that need to be water resistant, but the inkjet is my everyday printer. The laser is faster for multiple copies. That is its big advantage, but it is somewhat mitigated now that I am trying to eke out extra pages from the cartridges.

  • Which second speedlight should I buy?

    Hi,
    I'm trying to work out which speedlight to buy. I currently own a 430EX II and use this with a Pocket Wizard Flex TT5 and Mini TT1 to use off camera but I now need to buy a second speedlight and maybe in a few months I'll buy a third.
    My question is do I buy:
    - the new 600EX-RT to future proof my setup. Obviously with the 430EX II I know that the radio functionality won't work but hopefully the next speedlight I'd buy would be another 600EX-RT so it would make the setup more flexible. I'd also sell the Flex/Mini as the 600 would be my new Master.
    - another 430EX II...if I do this do I have to buy another Flex TT5 to make them both talk to each other? If I do then it seems pointless to take this option but let me know.
    - a used 530EX-II and again sell the Flex/Mini.
    Any comments/advice would be much appreciated!
    Thanks
    Zoë

    I sold all my old flashes and Cybersync triggers and purchased two 600EX-RT and an ST-ET-RT and have never looked back. I don't miss the triggers and the RT is great. Going to get a third 600 one day.

  • Which windows program should I buy?

    I have just purchased a new I mac, intel, with a copy of parallels. I now need to purchase Windows and prefer XP. Should I buy the home edition or the professional?
    Thanks

    Hi and welcome to Discussions,
    the main difference between XP Home and XP Pro is, that XP Pro integrates better in LAN environment and features Group Policies too.
    With Parallels and an iMac XP Home is sufficient.
    Also, buying an OEM (or System Builder) version of XP Home can save you some money.
    But stay away from 'bundled' OEM version from PC manufacturer, that originally were sold/delivered with a PC, since these versions mostly only work on that particular PC.
    Have Fun

  • Which Mac Mini should I buy for use with a 65 inch Panasonic GT30?

    Im very interested in surfing the web from the comfort of my Lay Z boy.  I have a 65inch Panasonic GT30 tv along with an Onkyo TXNR609 av receiver that handles everything (DirecTV, PS3, X360, Wii, Apple TV).  My only concern is the lag issue in dealing with the big display.  Should I buy the base modle with the slower processor and upgrade the RAM?  Or should I buy the i7 and rock out that way?  I can afford either but would like to spend the least considering this isnt going to be the main computer in my house.  Thanks for any advice!!

    If you ever (*ever*) want to fire up a serious 3D game (one with a 2010+ appetite for GPU power), go for the midrange model with the real videocard. If you only want to browse the web, maybe do some flash, things like that, the low end model has enough videocard for that. That Mini has the same Intel HD Graphics 3000 as my MBA13/2011 does, and that is currently driving my external 24" 1920x1200 screen just fine. Your TV is 1920x1080, so that even though it may have a lot more inches, it has fewer pixels than that, and it's the pixels that cost GPU power, not the inches. Size doesn't matter, its what you do with it!
    Since you're comfortable upgrading the ram yourself, obviously put in 8 or 16 instead of the 2 or 4 it comes with. The pricing on that ram is insanely low right now and while I'd personally go for the 16 on a desktop machine, I reckon for your intended usage 8 is well more than sufficient (4 would probably work, it does on aforementioned MBA13 after all), and it's about $50ish difference which is not nothing.
    If you can live with a small capacity drive, and are willing to open up the Mini further than just the base cover over the ram, I'd recommend getting a 128 GB SSD and installing it. The Apple price for the 256GB SSD, only on the midrange, is probably not worth it. You can even get a second-hard-drive-kit from one of the two well-known vendors and add the SSD while keeping the existing drive as an internal storage drive.
    P.S.: I don't actually believe in CPU upgrades. Even when you start with the midrange, the i7 is still $100 and that will also buy you that SSD, or get you most of the way to that SSD plus the second hard drive kit. The difference in performance between the i5 at 2.5 and the i7 at 2.7 is really pretty darn minimal, so as long as you're choosing to do one thing and not the other, get the SSD before the CPU upgrade, no question. If you wanna go full-option balls-to-the-wall-everything-maxed, that's another thing, just don't go for the i7 upgrade as the first thing.
    P.P.S.: Now that the 2012 MBAs and traditional MBPs are out, it seems likely that a Mac Mini refresh is coming relatively soon which contains an Ivy Bridge CPU and chipset (which means USB3 and HD4000), a more capable discrete GPU in the versions that have them, and (speculation tempered with hope) one of those new 35W TDP Quadcores in the midrange model, possibly as the CPU upgrade (pretty please, Apple?). It might be worth waiting for. On the other hand, waiting for new computer hardware is also a chump's game. There's *always* something better around the corner.
