I wanted to try Pixel phones but my inner circule is full of iOS sheeps and i am too attached to iOS simplicity and cloud service for photo, i want the pixel 10 pro xl but everyone saying that my 16 pro max is better but im just bored of iphones tbh
Would it be possible for the upcoming foldable iPhone to have stylus support? I mean, a smaller version of the Apple Pencil, like something to distinguish it from the normal flat iPhone design
I might be minority, but i loved that they finally left behind the flat design, and now we have a slider to set liquid glass even glossier, love it
I mean, Air 2 is coming in spring 2027 but there are some people that keep their phone for over +3 years, what would be their battery capacity knowing that it only has 3149mAh physically?
I know it has 12gb ram but it’s kind of second place since battery if everything and not every country has Apple Care…
My battery health is at 93% (not bad IMO) and my storage is 125/256gb (not bad also) but the overheating is too much that is becoming annoying?
If I do a fresh re-start will help to minimize the heating?
A friend of my wanted to try its first iPhone, the base experience and not spending more than $500 USD. I was thinking while giving him a proper answer, and i’ve come down that either a 15 Pro or 16e are good phones for under that price point.
The people outside the internet just want a phone make basic stuff, call, texting, insta, videos. Not many people needs or want 3 cameras, not many people even knows what’s a telephoto camera, if it looks good, they like it, and even older iphone does the job, but A18 Pro is the minimum for Siri AI things.
So, can we all agree that either 15 Pro and 16e is the minimum a person might consider to enter the apple world?
I got my 16PM at the beginning of 2026, around late January, I am happy with the phone and fast forward to WWDC 2026 where they announce that the most powerful AI tools are locked to the 12GB devices, I was kinda down. Let me elaborate
I am not a heavy user, maybe I emulate from time to time NDS Pokemon games and that’s most of my gaming, and the normal doom scrolling on insta, tiktok, twitter, reddit, I like to keep my phones for around 3-4 years.
I don’t mind that the voice assistant is locked for the 12GB since K don’t talk to Siri to be honest (i can set my alarms myself…) but what if they start locking more AI for the 12GB devices?
It’s a shame that the phone branded like “built for apple intelligence” didn’t even got the lasted AI that they offer.
I had to change my beloved iPhone 13 mini because the battery was replaced like three times, and also my back cover was cracked, so I was forced to upgrade. So I went to the Apple Store and I felt all the different devices that they had on the shelf, and I thought that my choice would be the Air, but it was too big for my liking. So I had to take the 17e, and it’s been mostly fine since I did the trade. And to be honest, it feels kinda nice. It doesn’t feel very much taller and the weight of the device is fine. I just wanted to share my experience with the mini users. If you are planning to upgrade, I think the 17e will be the best choice because the base iPhone now is larger than the previous base 16 and 15.
Also, 512gb this time since i won’t make the mistake again to take base storage
If I already have a 16 Pro Max and an iPad Pro 13” M4
Would be any reasonable to buy the foldable iphone?
I love the tablet form factor but I cannot justify paying +2000 USD tbh, like what extra feature they could implement in order to justify it?
I’ve seen that due to the Z Fold 8 announcement and being released this week, I’ve seen so many posts from iOS users wanting to switch to Android just because of it.
Will you ever ever switch?
To be honest, I’m considering going from the 16 Pro Max to the Z Fold 8. I only have an iPad as my other apple product so I am not locked, the most important thing to be is being able to transfer my whatsapp chats and photos/videos
My mini is on its last leg, I know I can change the battery, but the program is it’s 128gb. I am at 120gb already.
I LOVE the form factor of the Mini, but trying to find one in good condition +256gb is hard.
Would the 16e be that big? And if you ask about why not the 17e, I want to save money
To me, the iPad is not a productivity machine as many users on this subreddit think it is, too uncomfortable to use as a normal laptop, but in what it excels is the entertainment side. Now it does not only serve as a watching video machine; now it serves me as a fan game Pokémon player machine.
I have 13” iPad Pro M4
If you do know the Pokémon romhacking scene, you may also know fangames, which basically are made on Pokémon Essentials based on RPG Maker XP.
If the dev from RPG Player is here, please release the test flight version on the App Store!
Currently testing and playing my own fangame
Based on the Huawei Pira X Max, which has the same design language, the foldable iphone is going the same way with the rounded edges, but omg, the round shape in the screen near the hinge looks so off to me, I do think samsung nailed the Z fold 8 design better
As title says, is there a fan game that have the toggle built in, like the all double battle, all random pokemon, but to put all battles triple battle?
I know i, in the minority of this kind of battle but i find the too fun, more than double battles
I just ordered the Z Fold 8 wide, and ill like to know from the people that have went from iphone to samsung, which transfer tool you use?
mainly whatsapp, as I have all my photos in google photos
no imessage nor facetime since i don’t use those
i finally be free from apple
How apple is gonna compete if their foldable is rumored to launch at between 2.3-2.5k US dollars? The wide version of samsung has a base price of 1899.
I am not locked into a single ecosystem, but most of the time the wiser choice is to get the “cheaper” option, tho none of this phones are cheap.
I think it will be like the vision pro, that barely anybody uses them.
I tested the new Z fold 8 wide and omg, the feel, the reachable zone with one hand, the cuteness of it. I pre-ordered when i just got back home. I have a 13mini and tbh is the 128gb plus the 4gb is not enough these days for my usage, and the battery already sits at 91%.
I feel the z fold will be a good contender for a mini substitute, not replacement.
I know apple foldable is coming too on the same form factor but i’m kind of bored of apple too so, i have no issue switching between OSs
my advise is go to the store, test it and see if you like it
So now that samsung is offering the 7 years of support plus the ram crisis, my next big purchase for the upcoming years is being settle on this.
Now that companies are focusing more on on device IA and stuff, is the 12gb enough? or will be the 16gb make a difference in the long term?
Considering i’m coming from a S22 Ultra, and Wider fold 8 is so cuteeeee i might get that one but im not sure if 12gb will do the trick or go the extra mile with the 16gb considering i keep my phone for a longer time
I don’t like the taller and narrow aspect of the now Z Fold Ultra and don’t care much about camera nor spen support
One thing i give to apple is that the iPad is the best tablet out there (at least the Pros 13”) and my main phone is a S25U. I don’t like the iPhone since all the ecosystem lock is not use in my country (we use whatsapp for imessage and facetime at the same time).
Does anyone else here use the iPad + Android phone here?
My main reason why I haven’t switch to the Mac ecosystem is the anti cheat or easy anti cheat feature from games.
I play mostly MMOs and most of them have this thing and I cannot bypassed it.
I still have my Acer Aspire 16” due to this, even tho is not bad. I already have an iPad and an iPhone but I won’t let down my games…
Is there any hope for this on macOS 27?
P.D. Pararells or any virtual machine does not work either as it detects it.
