Anytime.
It’s in the colour filters setting under accessibilities if you change your mind.
It’s pretty easy to turn on and off.
Got a tip for us?

Oh I love both night shift and True Tone. I like that fuzzy warm feeling
Thanks a lot! I have been plying around with it, and I am adjusting it daily to try find the best fit.
This Intensity seems just about right for me:
Anytime.
Mines a bit more to the left.
It really makes colors pop on a dark background.
I also like these screen settings.
That’s intense.
So 3 months into it and I seem to be loving my XS Max more and more. I got it a lovely Official Apple Silicone case in Black, it’s very nice and grippy and also got the Apple Watch Series 3 Nike, which is helping a lot with keeping up with my gym sessions.
Anyway, I am truly enjoying the XS Max, like a lot more than I should, I just love the way it feels in hand, it’s build in general is just perfect for me vs most other current phones, every time I pick it up I am just so happy to use it, it’s weird, been a long time since I have had this sort of joy for a tech product, I think the last time I felt a device was this “perfect” for me in terms of build and look was the Galaxy Note 4 or even going further back, the Nokia N95.
Everything from the Display dimensions and density, Apple’s iOS font, the Taptic Engine, the Steel Build, the solid feel when plugging in the Lightning connector, the Silent switch, the solid click of the buttons (Volume and Power)etc....
I guess what I am saying is that the overall aesthetics of this device, both in software and hardware just sets it apart from everything else, it’s almost addictive. I tried out many iPhones before, but none of them have struck me quite like the X series (Hardware wise), although the iPhone 4 was very close to this to me, but not to the point where I thought of buying it, however did leave a lasting impression on me after I first used it. I hope Apple stay focused on this and don’t do some radical redesign that takes away from this.

Apple silicon case it’s great. I have the same case on mine.Went and got the official Apple Silicone case and have to say I am very happy, a lot more robust and grippy than my previous case:
Got my new toy and so far so good. The transition from Android is not too bad as I already had an iPad Air 2 that had a lot of apps that I used on my Androids to.
Will see if I stick around longer than 6 months, but so far so good.

I’ve had my XS Max since launch day, and I still marvel at this beautiful device. I love the way it feels in the hand, and the screen is delightful. I use it mostly without a case just because of the way it feels (well, and the way it looks caseless, too). The size is just right for me.
I only use phones without a case and without a screen protector. I’ve learned It is easy to avoid scratches with iPhones and iPads.
Never ever casually wipe your phones screen on your clothing, or random fabrics, and you’ll avoid scratches and even avoid tiny micro scratches. Always make it a point to wipe your screen with the same microfiber kept in a plastic bag.
Wash your hands throughout the day people, and don’t drop your phone, or place it in a bag with other objects. If you touch something with sand or dirt on it brush your hands off briefly.
You can easily maintain a raw device, and not a single micro scratch will develop.

Great write up, you seem to be really enjoying your iPhone experience.
Can’t believe you got an Apple Watch
, that’s the point of no return.
Case looks good, shame about the gaping gap / cut out at the bottom. They make a generic one of that with same materials minus the cut out.Went and got the official Apple Silicone case and have to say I am very happy, a lot more robust and grippy than my previous case:
Wait the white case is from Apple!? Can I see more pictures of it please... thanks!!!
You're getting locked in now. All you need is an Apple TV and a homepod.
I have an Apple TV. All I need is a MacBook and HomePod. I’m waiting to see if Apple change anything regarding the HomePod and buying a MacBook at tax time.
Well thanks a lot! Kept following this stupid thread and ended up buying an xs max today!
Was hard to say no. Corporate deal with Telus, $0 down, $15 a month for 24 months. $340 due at the end or give it back to trade for another. For Canada that’s an awesome deal

Literally, just unboxed and am typing this reply on my first MacBook (2017 i5/256/8) ever... YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!!! I've got a lot to learn, but so far it's everything I was hoping for and more.
Waiting for the next iteration of Home Pod, too high as is for my taste.
