Reply to Got an iphone 7 for 96 dollars…. by StaidRat01331
Ouch! I got a working iPhone 7 unlocked with 256gb of storage for $60. Battery is at 82% and screen is perfect. Backs a bit dented but other then that

Why would you send your phone back with her when it was out of warranty? Did you feel it was wrong of them to charge you only a month after expiring? Did you know they would charge her something different?

Unless you are jail broke. There is no valid reason not to update. And lack of security updates make it a reason you should.
Also as said you can use a third party. But it’s likely you’ll lose Face ID and True Tone.

You’d have to have it done by a third party.

I had this same problem a few months ago. The issue was that my phone had downloaded 1 iOS update and then another dot release update and having 2 updates was freaking it out. Went into storage and deleted both updates, restarted phone, went to update again and it redownloaded the update and went through with no problems. Hope this helps.

I wouldn’t say they’re the best. Maybe the most convenient ones since you’re using a iPhone but surely not the best.

Use a Mac or PC to update the iOS.

There are 2 universally loved things Apple makes: AirPods Pro and the Apple Watch. Lots of Apple “haters” always say they’re great

Yeah… They sent back my phone for a screen replacement because of a chip or scratch on the back of the phone and quoted me like $400 to fix the whole thing..
Another time, they said my front facing camera wasn’t working when I took my phone in for a battery recall, I managed to be on vacation and have plenty of pictures taken with my front facing camera that day before I took it in. They actually replaced it that time for free with no Apple Care. They said they probably forgot to reconnect it and didn’t want to reopen it, so they just handed me a new phone.

Reply to If you noticed your iPhone is charging a little slower it may be due to a new setting Apple added in iOS 16.1 — Clean Energy Charging. With it turned on, iOS will only recharge the iPhone's battery when the electrical grid uses cleaner energy sources like solar or wind. by RonSwazy
It is turned on by default after updating.
You can change this setting under Settings > Battery > Battery Health & Charging.

Only certain mobile plans support 4k or higher video streaming while the rest throttle video streaming to a certain bandwidth which is likely why your video plays but constantly lags and buffers.

The original AirPods were okay in terms of sound quality, but the 2nd gen really made some improvements in that department as well as other quality of life improvements.
- Sound is much more pleasing and less vanilla. More sub bass, better separation, and clearer vocal.
- Noise cancellation is better at reducing sounds that aren’t just constant rumbles.
- Adaptive transparency works.
- Automatic switching and connecting is much quicker and more reliable.
- Integrated U1 chip and speaker in the case so you can find it easier.
- Battery life is incredible. I usually get around 6 hrs with ANC/transparency, which means they can stay on from the moment I leave the house through taxi, airport, plane, and all the way until I check into the hotel.
HOWEVER, YMMV when it comes to all the subjective experiences. In terms of call quality, I just don’t know. You can hear people super well yes, but the microphone is nothing special.

They’re great….. when they work. However, lately their latest version of AirPods (AirPods 3) have been awful. I’m on my third replacement and they’ve gone bad.
Honestly at this point, you either go with the pro models or look somewhere else….

They work really well on Apple products but they are also very good. Ever since Apple bought out Beats by Dre the sound of their headphone have been on par or better than other headphones but to get a better opinion it would be better to go to YouTube and see the reviews as well

So, since you cropped your screen shot and didn’t say in the title, is the device connected to the internet??

I’ll tell you what happened
They use a special device that Apple designed themselves that’s used to heat and then remove the display from the frame enough to open the phone up, and someone probably forgot to take it off or just wasn’t paying attention, and it melted a component in the side button.
How do I know this? A mixture of having five+ years of phone experience, and I’ve also had this exact thing happen. They were supposed to replace the display on my 12 pro, but they broke the volume down button with the machine that’s supposed to open it up. They had to replace my entire phone for free. Good times.

You would have to purposefully begin tracking a workout and let it run for 15. So correct. 😂

Sadly in my country, we are still waiting for the 1st official Apple store to open. Currently we are served by Apple Authorised Retailers and the service experience varies from one to another. Any warranty replacement, takes a long time since it has to be shipped to neighbouring country, which is the closest with Apple centre and wait around 10 days minimum before any updates are given.
Hope that once we have the official store here, things will be a lot better like what you experienced.
