    Do you plan to use your current iPhone for at least 3 years before upgrading?

    Nope. I’ll keep my 12 Pro Max precisely as long as it takes for me to want the next newest flagship, be it Android or iOS. Usually around 6 months.

    Who loves their iPhone 12?

    it’s funny. I’ve purchased 2 android flagships year for the last several years. Then I bought a 12 Pro Max. Full stop, lol.

    Who loves their iPhone 12?

    Don’t do it. I am an android guy myself, until this iPhone 12 Pro Max. I swapped it for a S21 Ultra because, like you, I got bored. It lasted 3 weeks before I returned it. The hardware on the S21U is fantastic, but the software is still slightly buggy and choppy at times, and battery life was...

    Disappointed - Returning Mine to Apple

    I’ve been using the 12 Pro since Friday. I have it in a clear ESR case. The squared edges definitely feel harsh in the hand, but it could just be the case making it worse. The phone itself is super quick, and battery life has been fantastic (on iOS 14.2 beta 5). I came from the S20 Ultra, and...

    iPhone 12/12 Pro battery use

    Battery Life on my 12 Pro has been on par with my S20 Ultra (both with 5G). That's fantastic, considering that the 12 Pro has a MUCH smaller battery than the S20U.

    iPhone 12/Mini/Pro/Max Preorder/Shipping/Delivery Thread

    Got up at 5am (Pacific) and grabbed a 128GB 12 Pro in Pacific Blue straight from Apple. ETA is Friday the 23rd. My current phone? Samsung S20 Ultra. This thing is an amazing beast, but it's also massive. I want something a little more pocketable. Also, my entire family and 99% of everyone I know...

    AirPods Pro Noise Control

    Transparency mode uses the microphones to pass outside sounds through, so you can hear your surroundings. Active noise cancellation actively cancels out surrounding sounds electronically, so you hear nothing (basically) but the music. Off is just that. Active noise cancellation is off, and so...

    Charging practices

    I’m loving it so far. The reason I switched back is that Apple finally made cameras that don’t suck (I’m spoiled from owning the Pixel 2XL and 3XL, and the S10+ which actually isn’t as good as this 11 Pro Max).

    Charging practices

    I have had my Pro Max since last Saturday. This is my first iPhone since the 6 came out. I am a hard core Android guy. I can’t wrap my head around this battery life I’m getting. I full charged it overnight when I got it, and I haven’t had to since. At the end of the first day, it was around...

    Kid in a candy store

    I just grabbed a Pro Max in Midnight Green myself. This is my first iPhone since the 6. I have been a hard core Android guy, and I’ve gone through maybe 6 Android flagships in the last few years (I need the latest and greatest the minute it’s out). The only reason I’ve skipped Apple is because...

    Should I dump my new Note 10 Plus for the iPhone 11 Pro Max?

    My last several phones have been android (Pixel 2 XL, S9+, Pixel 3 XL, S10+, to name a few). I was excited for the Pixel 4XL until I actually saw the specs. Disappointing doesn’t cover it. The S10+ was a fantastic device, save for the meh camera image processing. I never saw lag or stuttering...
