Same over here, my s8+ just up and died so I went for a 14 pro max as my first iPhone after always using Android until now. The experience has been great so far

It was kinda annoying having to enter the passcode constantly, but it wasn’t the worst thing. It took a couple weeks for it to work again reliably. I hope yours works again!

My mother currently uses my old Galaxy S3. It's incredibly slow and probably not going to last much longer. She also has a problem with the nerves in her fingers and it results in her having issues tapping/swiping. I had her try my iPhone 13 to see what she thought of the screen - apparently it's much easier to use.

I'm considering buying her a refurbished older model for her birthday. Google tells me that Apple has been using the same touchscreen tech since the XR, so anything since should be suitable.

I'm thinking an 11. Thoughts?

I've ordered an 11. Thanks for the responses.

Ahh, I think this is it. My face ID is done for too. It’s good to know that maybe it could start working again because I can’t afford a new one lol.

This happened to my 11 a few weeks ago after it fell in the bath. Face ID quit working and the front camera was all fogged up. It decided to work again the day I got a 14 Pro, lol. Now it works but looks like there’s a ring of rust around the inside of the lens. Idk if it’s rust or not but it looks coppery.

Whoa this is awesome. Im deaf without my Cochlear Implants. never knew i could make my phone alert me of sounds when I’m sleeping or whatnot.

I like the boxy frame, feels more durable

Is there a hard drive thats plug and play with the iPhone I can easily back up with

I had this problem once when of my cables started failing. It apparently was causing a problem that gets interpreted by the phone as a possible liquid short.

I plugged the cable into another device and it reported the same error. Replaced the cable; no more problem.

YMMV.

I have the Anker Magsafe. It does get warm same as when plugged with a wire. If battery health declines - which all batteries will- , so be it. One way or another, youll be going to replace your battery in the future.

When I travel I use fast charge. When at home I just use a slower/lower watt power brick, which generates a loooot less heat and not perceptible

We live by the beach so it tells us about the water.

When my 13 Pro had to be returned I was going through the same debate as you.

I was planning on the 13 as it looks like a cracking device but my RMA fortunately resulted in me getting a 14 Pro without any pay in instead.

Someone has to be that person. 256GB is barely enough.

As far as I understand it, the water message is tripped by a short circuit between the contacts. Check to make sure all debris is cleaned from inside the port.

I switch from 6s to 14 Pro Max. I love my 14 Pro Max. This phone is perfect for me.

Delete it Delete it...Yeah Delete it.

Android beam is discontinued.

Bluetooth sharing is an ancient concept. it’s been there on black and white phones and is slow.

8k video. All cameras being 48MP with the option to select 48MP on regular photos instead of proraw.

Factory reset will fix it.

Ik it’s about $84 if I send it in I could also spend like $40 and do it myself but I kinda want that older form factor we used to have with the 4,5,se1 series at the same token

just replace the battery? looks like it's just $69

Thanks for the info but thinking on that my wire 20w charge generar heat most of the time too.

Wireless charging generates more heat, thus shortening battery health. But it’s so convenient.

Convenience vs battery longevity…
