That wasn't my intention so I apologize if that's how it came across.

I was just merely asking the question why people feel the need to pay for something which is free?

Being able to watch 4K videos is not the only reason. You also don’t have to put up with ads plus you can listen to the audio in background with the app “minimised” as well. These benefits are worth it to me and a lot of others.

Edit: I forgot about PIP and be able to download videos too. So there are a lot benefits besides the 4K for it to be worth it.

 

[Fried_Gold]

Isn't this all pointless though?

You're all paying £ (even if it is small) just so you can watch vids in 4K (for the record, my standard You Tube free account is still able to play back in 4K)..?!??

Even if the price was just 5p - I certainly wouldn't pay it just for this privilege.......

This account almost certainly belongs to Dino. 😂

it's worth it for no ads alone.

Anyone else seeing more iOS 16 bugs when trying to delete a saved location from the stock weather app? Just crashed out each time! Not even sure why and how Edinburgh got onto there in the first place!

If you can’t delete it, you’ll just need to relocate.

1. Use a VPN relaying your internet connection via Argentina.
2. Sign in to YouTube Premium. It will quote you ARS 119 (Argentinian Pesos), less than £1, for a single monthly subscription or you can sign up for a family membership for around £1.20p per month.
3. Sign up using a credit card and use a random Argentinian address. You can find one using

BestRandoms- random address, movie, character, animal, superhero, etc.

4. Once done you should have access to YouTube Premium GB.
5. No need to use VPN after set up except (I think) to add or remove family members.

Can you set your address back afterwards? My google account has my home and work addresses in it for google maps.

I never noticed Dino posts like this? Unless it’s his snarky alter ego

You don't need to change your address. You just need to enter an Argentinian address when on the payment screen

Thanks. Think I need to give this a go. The adverts drive me nuts.

here;

Thanks. That worked for me!

Not sure tbh.

No Ads is a game changer...

[iFone88]

Is there a free VPN service?

 

[sparkie1984]

Tunnelbear is what everyone used

You’d probably still be waiting to get your phone, not sure Apple are shipping there yet

 

[Vundu]

Not sure tbh.

You are just entering a billing address for that payment so not actually changing your address stored in Google.

So after a lot of debating with myself I'm keeping the AW Ultra. I like it and I'm sure if I went back to the smaller S8 I'd regret it.
Decision made... Now, do I need to sign up for cellular? Hmmm 🤔

 

[Fried_Gold]

Taking the Ultra + bands back tonight, the hype of the first week has died down and now I realise £1,047 (watch + 2 bands) on a smart watch is insane given the poor resale values.

Hmm.

I have a feeling you would regret it so a good decision made.

I spent the month between ordering and receiving the plus thinking that I’d made a mistake ordering the larger phone.

I’ve had it three days, I was just showing it to my friend, she has the 11. I grabbed her phone to search for something and thought wow, this screen is small 😂😂😂.

Well played apple, now next year, if they don’t continue the plus I’ll have to go pro max.

Hmm.

That is a fair point and in a way I do agree with you. That said I’m coming from a Series 5 to an Ultra which is a big change. I never upgraded to the Series 6 or Series 7 so I saved money there. I also figure that unless Apple make a drastic update to the Ultra next year, and I don’t think they will, I won’t be upgrading anytime soon. Of course if I had a Series 7 I would be less inclined to upgrade.

You have to do what's right for you.

I think I would just regret the screen size drop too much.

I'm also coming from a S5. I plan on keeping the Ultra for at least 3 years if not more.
I'm going to take out the AppleCare on a monthly basis because I believe it's the same as the phone that as long as you keep it going you get a discounted rate battery replacement if battery life drops below 80%.
