DarkJC posted:I'm really not a fan of the Samsung method either, it feels just as hacky. But I don't really have a better solution for the problem. The solution is easy, don't make the phone ridiculously huge. If they announced Reachability as an Android feature a month ago everyone would have laughed at how stupid it is.

Don't forget that if you plan to upgrade every other year AppleCare+ will net you a small premium when selling your phone at the one year/11 months mark.

Jose Oquendo posted:What do you all do to your cables? I have a few lightning cables I bought when the iPhone 5 came out and they are still in great condition. All my Apple cables are still in almost new condition too, but I don't plug my iPad in and swing it around over my head by the cable pretending I'm a cowboy either. Most people treat their electronics horribly. That Otterboxes are a thing is hilarious.

Anyone else getting weird cursor jumps while typing? On my 5s I'll be typing and the cursor will bounce into the middle of a block of quoted text/email I'm replying to. In another app while typing I get booted to YouTube which I'm guessing is iOS registering my typing as clicking the ad bar covered by the keyboard.

LUBE UP YOUR BUTT posted:seriously tho the only reason i use a case is cause the iphone is slippery as gently caress without one, to the point where i've dropped it on my face more than once using it caseless in bed As much as I was a proponent of caseless with AppleCare+ for the 5s I might try out one of those Apple leather ones when I get the 6s. When trying the 6 in stores I found it didn't grip as solidly as the 5s between the size increase and the rounded edges. Seems a lot easier to drop.

Michael Scott posted:How do you fit the 6S+ gigantaphone into your pocket? I'm considering it but I'm still suspicious of its size. I just switched to the 6s slightly-less-huge size last week and it feels too big coming from a 5s. The 6s+ would be monstrous. The 6s is really uncomfortable to use the top of the screen on and the it feels awkwardly large in my pocket without a case. I'm adjusting, but it's not great. They really need to offer a smaller screen option with the 7.

Tab8715 posted:So... Because you just bought a 6s in December and ohgodIreallyshouldn'tsellitandbuythesuperioriPhone. 3D Touch is pretty much a worthless gimmick, and the smaller form factor is waaaaaaaaay more comfortable for using one-handed on the bus/at the grocery store/etc. I don't think I can talk myself into selling my 6s and spending the extra cash to upgrade to a SE, but if the 7 gets a similar treatment I'll bail on the hugephone in a heartbeat. Large phones suck.

fourwood posted:I gotta say... I think I still would rather have my 6S than an SE, but... having an SE and $250 is really tempting. We'll see how the 4" models shake out in the next couple years when it's upgrade time. I'm so tempted to try and sell my 6s and replace it with the SE, trying to remain strong but having a normal sized phone again would be so nice. Having switched to the 6s from the 5s last December the 6s is just plain too big. It's awkward as hell to use.

I'm ok with the 8 being the 5s of this form factor, the peak before they move on to something new. The X seems janky as gently caress like the one port MacBook. It'll be at least a revision or two till they get it right.

I was worried the iPhone X would outshine the 8 and I'd feel like I was getting "the second best iPhone" ever made. After seeing it the X feels like both the worse phone and the more expensive phone. It's the single port MacBook all over again. I get what they were striving for, but it needs to go back in the oven for year or two.

Tons of popular games run in landscape and often videos are best viewed in landscape. Outside of games I rarely switch to landscape, but it's hardly ridiculous people would want their $1319 CAD phone to not look ridiculous in landscape. The notch is Sarnsung level amateur hour bullshit.

Pivo posted:I'm not saying Apple is going to nail this one and everything will be perfect. The price is stupid, TouchID worked too well to just get rid of, FaceID is an unknown. I'm just saying the notch hate is probably less important than we think it is. I'm sure the notch hate is a bit exaggerated by what an echo chamber the internet tends to be, but at that price it's not unreasonable to expect a device without all the compromises you describe. $999 in the US doesn't sound half as bad as $1319 in Canada. That price point is cringeworthy for a phone. On some level I think Apple might be hurt by making the iPhone 8 as good as it is. I expected a better processor in the X for one. It feels like the 8 gets most of the major features without the compromises and at an easier to stomach price. That said I'm sure they'll still sell a gazillion iPhone X and 8s.

Henrik Zetterberg posted:Yup I’ve used spigen hybrids for years now and love them. I drop my phone like once a year and don’t let my kids touch it, so I really have no use for anything bulkier. My only gripe is the new ones appear to have done away with the shiny chrome buttons in favor of black on the black bumper model/clear on the clear bumper model. The chrome buttons looked really nice. Edit: Looks like the 8 is well on it's way to becoming the 4S/5S of it's generation, that model people cling to years past it's time because the newer models cut features they love.
