ThermoPhysical posted:Is the Apple clear case the best clear case to get? It doesn’t really protect the bottom of the phone but apparently it doesn’t yellow either? It’s historically bad and cracks easily, Spigen makes a couple of clear cases that you can buy multiple of if it yellows and still not pay as much as one Apple case.

SourKraut posted:So I’m on a 11 Pro, and with Verizon’s offer of $800 for trade in, I’ve seriously been debating on going to a 14 Pro, but now I’m even thinking/tempted by the 14 Pro Max. The size isn’t a problem. The Max line isn’t actually that much larger than the standard models, you can compare them at phonearena.com. The bigger deal, imo, is the weight. The Max’s are heavy as gently caress. It’s my one gripe with my 13PM. I feel like the 11 Pro was probably my favorite form factor. If I had it to do over again, I’d go with the standard 13 Pro. You don’t get that much more size, and the battery life difference, while measurable, isn’t necessary as the regular Pro gets more than enough. e: also I know they need to have space for 5g antennas, but bring back rounded edges. Feels better in the hand. Soul Glo fucked around with this message at 18:19 on Sep 29, 2022 |

If it's relatively recent stuff they can give you an apple gift card for it.. they got a list of prices on their website. Perfect, thanks.

some kinda jackal posted:My XS is at 89% battery health. I have an upcoming trip planned and honestly I just want to give it the most chance of making it through the day as I possibly can while I wait for the USB-C phone. Battery health is not linear. 89% health does not mean that your phone reaches 89% of its day 1 charge capacity. It’s much worse. Don’t wait for a USB-C iPhone, because it is not a given that one will launch in 2023, and even if it does in some places it might not in your region (Apple is just fine machining different chassis for different regions already, see: the SIM tray on the 14). The laws don’t require it in the EU until 2024, IIRC, and even then Apple might roll the dice on portless if they think they can get away with it. Law 1 of phone buying is buy a phone when you need a phone. It sounds like you need a phone, tbh. e: depending on the price/availability where you are you could also just get a battery replacement while waiting.

cheesetriangles posted:Replacing my iPhone 12 Mini (rip the mini dream) for an iPhone 14 Pro the carrier said to turn off find my phone which I did but do I need to do anything else to prepare it for trade in? All my photos should be in iCloud I assume. Do I need to wipe the device? How would I do that? They may want it active to do the SIM transfer to eSIM. Just make sure they do a erase all content or whatever option before you leave the store.

You can compare footprint size and weight (and specs) on https://www.phonearena.com/phones/size/. I would not get an SE over a 13 Mini purely due to battery life. Without fact-checking myself, I’m fairly sure the Mini is smaller, lasts longer and has a bigger screen. The SE is the phone for grand-parents and children.

However, my daughter has one, so here's a question -- check the phone's storage breakdown. if it's mostly a ton of system data taking up most of the phone, then it's probably a bunch of backups. i'm not sure what the best solution is beyond wipe and set up as new and resync but if that's the case at least you can start googling other solutions.

apple approved chlorox wipes on iphones back at the beginning of covid (I use zeiss lens wipes that are 70% alcohol on my phones without problems so far) distilled water on damp, soft cloths should be enough to unfuck monitors fwiw the only time ive hosed up a phone's coating was getting hand sanitizer on one, but that was like 95+% alcohol e: chlorox not lysol lmao Soul Glo fucked around with this message at 04:54 on May 22, 2023 |

I'm not familiar with whatever Apple said about lysol wipes, but I wouldn't use them on the screen nor would I use anything harsh like ammonia based cleaners. this is what they say about them: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT207123#:~:text=Is%20it%20OK%20to%20use,containing%20bleach%20or%20hydrogen%20peroxide. chlorox, not lysol, i always confuse the two my b my b

slave to my cravings posted:I replaced the battery (was <80% capacity) on my 12 mini about a month ago because it was losing charge pretty quickly and was often warm to the touch. Still having the problem a month later with the new apple store replaced battery. It drops from 100% to 70% in 2 hours overnight while doing nothing! New battery is 100% capacity. Literally no data in the battery usage section for those 2 hours. I cleared out a bunch of space by offloading photos, iOS updated, turned off Bluetooth, stopped sharing my location, turned off background app refresh, literally everything I can think of to improve battery performance. Is it time to just factory reset and set up as a new device? Anyone else have this problem and that fixed it? check your location permissions and usage, sounds like an app is constantly reporting location

i remember like 10 years ago my roommates were literally robbed at gunpoint on the front porch for their wallets and iphones in the middle of the night while they were drinking and hanging out the rub was was that because their iphones were taken they pointed the cops directly to where thieves were (i guess using find my iphone if that was a thing then) and the dudes were arrested like an hour later with the phones returned lol
