Bro said “explain” and then googled it

It'll definitely be better but can't tell how much. Using it daily for 2+years i haven't really noticed any degradation tbh. If you plan on keeping the phone for another while you will have to replace it eventually sometime this year so why not do it now.

Agreed, there could be a better software solution to this.

I literally don’t give a fuck

Yeah, it works fine. Just doesn’t last as long on a single charge. Just wonder how much more screen time I’d be able to get if replaced with a fresh battery

As long as it's over 80% it's fine. Got an 11 pro max at home with 81% and it holds up pretty good, below 80% it gets throttled so will need a replacement then

86%. I’m going off of charge cycle, which is over 500 now

Yes. It’s getting old. It’ll be 5 this year. The newer updates slow the older phones down simply because they cannot handle it as well as current gen phones. While it will probably last a good while longer, the updates will stop coming in probably within the next year or 2.

What's your battery health? Seems a bit early for an iPhone 12 battery replacement

Perfect match

35 W. Takes 2 hours to go from 15 to a 100 percent! That’s a big downgrade for me as I am used to a full charge in 30 minutes

That's a good point. Apple's design philosophy does treat apps special making all apps appear the same on many different devices.

However, I am simply suggesting Apple innovate on what they started. Instead of just re-inventing the same device every year.

Like you mentioned tapping to open 'view' mode to zoom in. I've given further thought how it would work. Like placing a finger along the edge of the screen then pinch zooming with your other hand. Or using a new creative gesture. By holding your thumb at one point on the screen and using your index finger like your pinching a knob, moving your index finger on an arc, from left to right to zoom in, and right to left to zoom out.

Which reminds me of something I heard years ago. The future of hardware is software. It's only limited by our imaginations. I just hope eventually enough people will see this and agree, and come up with better ideas.

But lost mode is still pending.. Will it still take effect if they wipe it and connect to the internet afterwards?

You should lose and loose are 2nd grade vocabulary words if you don’t know the difference you’re making yourself look dumb.

That’s what’s wrong. It’s up to date

They can factory wipe the phone, but it will still be activation locked and unuseable, unless you remove it. Don't remove it and just leave it in lost mode whether it updates you or not. You might not get any more updates if it's battery disconnected and going to parted out etc.

You should also be careful of receiving any suspicious emails asking you for account info or iCloud login from spoof or phishing emails. They will try and get you to remove activation lock pretending to be Apple.

Do you use 20 W? Mine charges pretty fast

I had to get into the message settings on my old pixel and un-enable chat. That worked for me.

lol, I find zooming within apps extremely time consuming and annoying. If your father knows you can zoom on web sites and pictures in the gallery, ask his opinion with using the magnifying glass within apps. I'm curious if I'm the only one that would prefer pinch to zoom to work within apps.

Essentially it can be only used for parts then? Or if they reset it then they can use it normally since lost mode is pending only?

Could you tell why do you regret it?

use my first iphone when i was on colleague and can't never stop.

You’d be surprised. Working in IT professionally, if I got a dollar for every time I’ve asked someone “Have you restarted it to check if that solves your problem?”and got told “no” I’d be very wealthy now.

People often panic when tech isn’t working and immediately reach for the phone to call support before trying simple fixes first like checking enough storage is available or restarting the device. Some folk don’t even check if mains powered devices are plugged in and switched on.

I’m saying bought because she wants me to refund he with the pension money from my father

Cool!
