Switching from my X, which was first gen Face ID, which was ok, but not the fastest and struggled at some angles, to the 14 pro, is like switching from 3G to 5G, it’s fast, can do multiple angles (just about does laid flat on desk) and what blew my mind was that it does landscape Face ID. No complaints here.

Reply to Can we please normalise the fact putting your wet device in rice isn’t a smart idea? Rice isn’t a magical product. Instead put it in a dry area with sufficient airflow! by [deleted]
Ah, so the tumble dryer must be the perfect location 👍

Have you tested it via USB and via WI-FI to see if there’s an issue with the connection? Could be the Wi-Fi on you computer is the issue? 🤷🏻

Reply to getting a 14 plus, is dynamic island really a big deal that I'll miss? I mean all it has to offer can be done easily otherwise too by Crystalagent47
Main differences are the cameras, 12mp vs 48mp main shooter and a 3X optical zoom, plus the screen is 120hz and AOD. My wife got the 14 plus and I got the 14pro; she takes good pictures but I can tell the improvement on mine. Main issue with the island is that it cuts into some video content whereas the notch only cuts in on full screen.

Aramid fibres (Kevlar), claims to be stronger than steel 🤷🏻 I had one for my iPhone X, survived being dropped down the stairs several times, into the bath and from the loft bouncing off a metal ladder with only minor scuffs than cleaned away. Doesn’t claim to be anything other than a tactile case that’s ultra slim; but I’ve only ever had to replace screen protectors after 4 years of use. Only visible damage on the 5 year old phone is some scratches on the glass edge above the notch.

I agree, unless you’re under extremely bright conditions you may as well have space grey. I had a clear case at first despite hating the appearance of them and immediately regretted it and replaced it with a latercase.

Reply to Most beautiful iPhone yet by nishantkadian
What colour is it? I have the apparently purple iPhone 14 pro and the pictures don’t represent it in real life at all. May have well have gone space black as the purple looks more like the graphite of my iPhone X except in exceptional light. Bought a clear case thinking it’d be worth it over a aramid slim but ended up switching asap.

I used to do that on my lunch breaks when I couldn’t get away from my desk, I’d lose myself and have to email the place from my work account so I could keep reading on my phone on the bus home.

WhoSampled. Just love looking into the background of the music I listen to and how it interlinks with other artists. I have 34k songs on my phone so it’s good to look at. If you’re a Spotify user you can link that as well.

Reply to Help? iPhone XS by AffectionateSnow2478
You need to keep 5-10% of your storage free for your phone to run efficiently. Tricky in this day and age I know; 64GB just wasn’t enough (even at release from around the 7/8/X onwards), 128gb+ is about right for most users.

As someone that walked a lot in the cold, Face ID solved this problem for me. Constantly tapping in the passcode with crappy touch screen thin gloves or taking them off and never getting my hands warm again.
