so whats the water resistance like? i know people taking pics underwater with their samsung edge or whatever is the waterproof sarnsung.

samsung claims the s7/edge are rated to ip68 (more than 1 meter - other samsungs claim 1.5 m - for 30 minutes) while apple claims iphones are up67 (up to 1 m for 30 min), which is the same as the apple watch 1. actual tests of samsungs suggest their rating might be a bit optimistic. basically, in either case, probably don't go swimming with them (even though they'll probably survive if you do), but they'll be fine if you drop them in the toilet.

I used them all day long the day I flew home from San Francisco to Philadelphia. I made a few phone calls, then played music throughout the flight. When I got in the door at home, the AirPods still had 44 percent of their charge, and the case was at like 80 percent or something like that.
so his earpods RAN OUT OF BATTERY DURING THE DAY AND HE HAD TO RECHARGE THEM and he crows that they ended the day at 44% like that's an accomplishment

it just sounds like he didn't have them in 100% of the time. and where do you put them when you don't have them in so they don't get lost? that's right, baby: the case.

Lots of reports of OTA iOS 10 updates are failing for people and they have to connect to iTunes to finish the update/restore their phone. Anyone here have issues? I'm backing up my phone first and might wait until very late tonight to update.

Tim, better bring more servers online to handle the rush.

I've taken my Sony Xperia Z3 swimming and boating on multiple occasions and it has stood up perfectly, even through intense surf and crashing waves, and down to 50cm or so submerged

always fresh water ofc though. I wouldn't put it in the ocean or in a chlorinated pool.

the iPhone 7 can play music for 60 hours, but to listen to music for 60 hours you'd have to put the airbuds in their capsule hotel for a total of 5 hours and recharge that three times

All the reports are from people who went to Back alley Shenzen Flash memory resolderers. Maybe they should leave the poor phones alone, because removing swipe to unlock is a sure sign that nobody at apple cares anymore other than trying to seem more productive in Tim Cooks "cook the books productivity spreadsheet"

You could just plug the included lightning earpods into the lightning port and enjoy music for 60 hours, or use the included lightning to 3.5mm headphone jack adapter and enjoy 60 hours of music. That's what I plan to do if I ever have the need to listen to music outside of my car on my iPhone 7+ 128G Black model.

yup. a bunch of people seem convinced that everyone secretly desires to be able to put their phone down and walk around the house listening to music because that is the go-to when asked what you can do with Bluetooth that you can't do with wired. no response to pointing out that you could already do that with any other iPhone.

The Apple difference is that now you can do it nude.
