My nearly 3 year old 14 Pro Max still gets me about a day and a half…
Depends a lot on how one uses their phone.
Right this moment I’m at 58% charge (last charged a day ago) with 3.5 hours of screen time.
My 15 pro max is excellent, dont know what to do lol
Eh, yeah, that’s just kinda how it is nowadays. I got my first brick phone when I was 16 but that was 2002. Had that phone until I got the first iPhone in 2007, have been 100% Team iPhone ever since
My oldest just turned 13 and started 8th grade, she got her first phone in 5th grade when we started letting her venture out into our neighborhood alone to visit friends. I plan to do the same with my first grader who turns 7 next month; she constantly asks me when she can have a phone, and I keep telling her, 5th grade. But this kid has an iPad (with time limits) so I promise she’s not neglected 😂
I guess I’m just not a parent who is terrified of technology. I don’t want to raise luddites who hit 18 and are suddenly faced with an entire digital world with absolutely no skills to help them safely navigate it. I’ve never just handed them a device and set them loose—there has always been active parenting and monitoring with it, just being aware of and involved with their usage. I know “not every middle schooler has a cell phone” but… honestly? Most do.
Hope that the significant growth of Camera bump is the result of same level of growth in camera sensors. Otherwise it is pointless.
Do you know that many of us has safely navigated from a world without Internet, when we were already adults, to today's technological landscape and yet we gained the skills as tech evolved, without any problems?
Not an Apple branded keyboard for a Mac Studio. I have zero use for any model of iPad.
Obviously I don't know if you deserve them. But do you need them? I'm going to assume you do. Have fun with your new toys.
Trump has specifically excluded Mobile phones from Tariffs on India. So you Americans can breathe easy.

9 Days Until the iPhone 17 Pro: All the Rumors
the only thing that would cause me to upgrade is if apple added that 8* zoom. Might consider the orange in that case instead of my usual black type colour. As for the ultra 3 I tried an Amazfit watch and it battery life was better period and it gave away little in accuracy.
Given the trade in prices I’m seeing I am no longer interested in throwing good money away. I usually buy the top of the line pro max fully loaded. There’s too much competition. Tbh if I could get my hands on an oppo with the amazing camera I save 500-600 gbp and buy that and use some really good antivirus anti snooping software. I also have a big issue with ai. I use it a lot for some things and am well aware of its shortcomings and in spite of the fact that social media tells me I’m missing out on a it when I try the things they mention i usually find I’m thinking ok so that’s fun (once) and it hasn’t saved me much time at all and oh then it makes a mistake and costs me more than it ever saved me. It’s like all these processes that are being automated with ai. The reason most do them aren’t resulting in real positive returns is because most for ehm could be dispensed with altogether.
I realise too that most people won’t agree with me but I object to stuff being summarised for me by google. Give me the choice. If I want to trawl through links myself and actually use my brain then let me. I shudder to think of how quality and thinking is decaying in the general public. I’m already seeing awful mistakes at work. I predict further ******tification of our society.
I like the idea of the folding phones but see too much about the delicate screens. When they’re as solid as my slab and can have a screen protector put on I’ll be in.

Who cares about “need”? I’m going for the 17PM and AWU3 because I want them 😂Obviously I don't know if you deserve them. But do you need them? I'm going to assume you do. Have fun with your new toys.
So boring. Ten years ago manufacturers were throwing everything at the plate. Now that there are only a few left, they, especially Apple and Samsung, are nickle and diming. They literally can’t be bothered to make flagships with every possible feature because why should they when mediocrity will still be lapped up. Same old small batteries, same small camera sensors, same slow charging, same stupid big holes on screens, crap keyboards, lack of proper multitasking, lack of file access - they’re just digging their own graves.
I am the only one who see those 17 Pro renders make the iPhone look cheap?
Still rocking a 14 pro max. Never been this far behind new models and still unsure about upgrading. The early days of innovation and new releases were awesome, not so much now. Think I may hang to the 18. We’ll see!
I’m with the 13 Pro and doing good. Maybe with the new iOS performance will go to ****, tho.
