Astrophotography is something that I’ve got into recently. Even a basic setup can cost £1000’s. My daughter got a small telescope for Christmas for about £150. Since then we’ve been experimenting with sticking an iPhone 12 (non pro) up against the eyepiece. Attached is a second attempt at the Orion Nebula. Nothing fancy, no stacking etc just a 3sec exposure and from light polluted urban skys. The results of the first attempt literally had her jumping up and down. It’s addictive and so far we don‘t really know what we are doing. There’s room for much improvement. Sure it’s a niche market but one that’ll get headlines.
The reason they sell so well is because they work properly, have the best battery life in the business, best chipset in the business, while the completion is overloading their phones with specs and huge batteries and still getting nowhere near to being as good as a iPhone.
Its wrong, with newer LTO display + adaptative feature (OS optimizations) it doesnt eat battery life
Ironically, it isn't... Usually Always On Displays show information such as notifications, time, at a low brightness over black background. That means only very few pixels are lit and those at very low power. Aditionally, AOD usually shifts content around a little to avoid the same pixels being used all the time. (That's actually common practice on many OLED devices even if they are not AOD.)
Magnetic field doesn't affect the body (unless you have a pacemaker then I would be more careful) unless we are talking ridicolously strong fields at the brain (MRT) and CCs should hopefully lose the magstripe rather sooner than later. That's technology of the last millenium that has been obsolete in most parts of the world for at least a decade.
Wow that’s a phenomenal picture! I would be so happy to be able to take pictures like that! My daughter and I have not had much luck holding up her iPhone XS to the eyepiece of our telescope. It would be awesome to get the iPhone 13 with this feature!
😅 most people only keep their phones 2-3 years. So it wouldn’t matter even tho each iPhone is becoming more and more future proof people will always want the latest and greatest of a device they use hours each day. Unlike a car.
yeah battery life on 12 pro max should be the same with ltpo and 120hz as it is now ideally.
The fact that you don't have to lift up your phone to see notifications. Apple has been always a PITA when it comes to that (not even notification LEDs) and FaceID made the issue much worse... In the past you just had to put the thumb on the screen now you have to lift the entire device up.
When was the last time you swiped a credit card? Serious question here. I have not seen a credit card swiped in at least 5 years.
