    iPhone 12 Pro New iPhone 12 Pro battery health

    I got my iPhone 12 Pro on July 29th. My battery health is 99 as of today. Isn’t this pretty fast to go down? My 12 before I shattered it had 100 for months. I want this phone to last as long as possible. Any advice or tips? I’m using a 5w charger overnight. Thank you!

    Do you feel "What happens on your iPhone stays on your iPhone" is false advertising?

    Let's see the real size of that "screeching minority" and let's see what percentage believes that "one 1 in 3 trillion false positives" and "slightly edited images are also detected" can be true at the same time.
