    Satisfied or unsatisfied with size?

    I have the 12 Pro Max and my wife has the 12 Pro. She got her’s first. The 12 Pro feels so nice in the hand so much so I almost went that way this time. I had an 11 Pro Max so I was already accustom to the size and felt long term I would be happier with the benefits it came with. We are...

    So happy with my iPhone 11 Pro Max 512GB!! Bye Bye Android Flagships.

    Our paths are similar. I was a huge android fan when I was rooting my phone to tether without paying for it. Once that was a nonissue I went with a 6+ since my whole family was on Apple devices, but I thought I missed android and switched back to a Pixel XL. I had hardware issues with in 30 days...

    Battery life of the 11 pro max vs XR

    The Xr has great battery life, but the Pro Max is noticeably better battery life

    Battery life is outstanding.

    I came from an XR also. I have only had my Pro Max a few days so thing are settling in still. How much better is the battery for you? My XR was outstanding and it looks like my 11 pro max is slightly better also. So far I am seeing about a 4-5% gain in battery life over the XR (this is just an...

    What cases do you have for the Xr?

    I put a Zizo case on mine. I found this case a couple years ago and really like them. It comes with a belt clip and hard to beat for 17.00. it also has a screen protector with it but I did not try it. I am a huge fan of the Whitestone Dome screen protectors. This case works perfect with the...

    iPhone XR better antenna

    I can not post numbers but there is two areas near me that drops the call when you go through. It has done it for years. Last week I dropped a call on my 7plus in the one area. Today was the first day I have not dropped a call there the only change was I switched to an Xr Friday. I will check...

    Joined the Xr crowd

    Well I took the plunge and got the Xr last night. I was on the fence up until I bought it. The camera and 3D Touch were my hang ups. I can already tell 3D Touch will be a nonissue even though I used it a lot. I used the 2x camera a lot but these two things didn’t not justify the cost difference...

    Series 4 Alert tones quieter than Series 3

    It seems like the adjusting the volume down and backup fixed it

    Can I get some pictures with the digital zoom in use.

    I glanced at a Xr and Xs Max when I went into a Verizon store the other day for something else. I had two hold ups on the Xr, the screen and the camera. The screen was a nonissue for me when I looked at them side by side. That brings me to the camera. I have a 7+ now and have the 2x optical...

    Series 4 Alert tones quieter than Series 3

    Thanks I still have the series 3 my wife took it when I got the 4. Since what I was experiencing did not seem to be normal I started messing with it some and I might have fixed it. When I paired it the volume in the watch app was all the way up, so I never touched it. I turned it down and back...

    Series 4 Alert tones quieter than Series 3

    Hmm, what you are saying is what I expected to experience. Both of mine are the LTE version but I doubt that makes a difference with this issue.

    Series 4 Alert tones quieter than Series 3

    Has anyone else noticed this? My Series 3 watch I had to turn the volume down some but on my Series 4 I have the volume all the way up and it is still hard to hear at times. The haptic feedback is not as strong either so I am missing notifications if i am in a some what nosier area. This is my...

    Something that surprised you with the XR?

    I do not have one but I stopped in to get a Series 4 watch and quickly looked at the Xr next to the Xs Max. I have thought I would opt for the Max because of the screen, but I was really shocked with how nice the screen on the Xr is add the better battery life along with the savings makes the Xr...

    New AirPods launching this week, I have some proof!

    New AirPods launching this week, I have some proof!

    It was not on the Apple website. The AirPods 2 was showing when typing in the search box at Best Buy and Target and it did not happen Friday, but showed up yesterday and today. I figured if they were going to launch it this week it would have been today. Something appears to be coming though and...

    New AirPods launching this week, I have some proof!

    I have been on the fence about buying a pair of AirPods, but went to pull the trigger last night. I was trying to find a pair local at a store still open so when I went to their site and started typing in AirPods I got 2 choices auto populating from their list (AirPods and AirPods 2). This...

    8+ vs 7+ worth the $150 difference?

    Only you can justify your purchase. I just got the 8+ for my wife a week ago to replace her 6s 64gb that the battery was not lasting all day. I had the 7+ and was perfectly happy with it and was really leaning towards that option for her, but getting her the 7+ would loose the annual upgrade...

    Round vs Rectangle Apple Watch Display

    I have tried both round (Android) and now the rectangular Apple Watch. If Apple does bring out a round option I hope they keep the current form factor. I used to think the Apple Watch looked a little odd, but I prefer how it displays data. Either way it doesn't matter to me I will keep what I...
