To extrapolate is to take known quantities (e.g. your experience with the iPhone 6.1 inch size) and apply them to unknown quantities (the general experience of the general population of iPhone users).

You complain about how you have trouble reaching the top of the 6.1 inch screen, and that’s fine, that’s your experience. But you’re very dramatic about how they didn’t keep the dimensions of the human hand in mind when designing the 6.1 model. But human hands don’t have a definitive dimension (defined as measurements height, length, depth, etc). Sure, there is a certain range of common proportions (for instance, your thumb is probably not longer than your middle finger), but you’re not talking proportions. You specifically said dimensions.

And I don’t care to have a whole debate about whether one is right or wrong. You have users here mentioning that since the sales for 6.1 and 6.7 inch size options for smartphones tends to outpace the sales for the smaller devices you’re begging for, it can be assumed that those 6.1 and 6.7 devices are more popular.

You keep trying to pull people into debating whether one is right or wrong or correct or better. But this is a discussion board, not a debate team. I don’t think anyone here really cares or has an opinion as to which is objectively better. We all just know what’s better for /us/ as individual users. And that’s what we are all commenting on, more or less. But you’re taking everything as a personal hit. Every downvote as a judge of your character. But fake internet points don’t matter.

And as far as those who are resorting to name calling (yourself included, calling mr cock and balls a “big boy” quite sarcastically), there’s really no need.

It’s all a waste of time. None of this matters. Keep chatting away to yourself. You’re making yourself look like a fool by visiting and revisiting this post after no one has responded to you.

And yes, I flaired that I have a 14 pro. But it doesn’t matter, six weeks ago my flair said XR. I don’t think it makes me better than anyone. I have my flair so that when I comment or post in this subreddit, people can see what my experiences are based on. We get you’re unhappy with the offerings. But that doesn’t mean that everyone else is, too.

Photo Management. I can forgive or deal with other stuff but the photo management on IPhone is complete ass. There is no reason why photos taken with the camera can’t be put into their own folder off the bat and there is no reason for photos that are part of an album to still show in recents.

Now I would expect all sorts of slow counter-arguments, mostly fallacious in nature... things about oh I'm not this or that (strawman arguments). I don't think you'll find one actually intelligent counter-argument, but that's just my opinion. After all, this poster apparently has an iPhone 14 Pro, so obviously he's better than I am.

Ok, just for the record (for readers), this is not an extrapolation. By definition. The poster (@Temetzcoatl) apparently does not understand the english language.. lol. The meaning of words is important, and I would encourage more people to research this. I don't see any of these bullies on r/iphone attacking Leonardo's "Renaissance man", and claiming that there are no meaningful observations (or measurements) about the human body because some people are taller than others... lol. Yet you see the same borderline slow reasoning posted here, obviously from people that struggle with even the most basic logic.

I am still waiting for u/Temetzcoatl to explain how this is an "extrapolation", and I wait anxiously insofar as that is literally impossible. He's got an iPhone 14 PRO though (and a stamp for us all to know!) so apparently he's a big deal. Shame on the rest of us. :/

Edit: I seriously don’t understand this subreddit, I state a factual “you can set up custom sounds for specific people” as I literally have custom sounds for multiple contact right now and then people are like “welp time to downvote as if you said something that is incorrect!”

Unique sounds per individual as in person in messages and calls? That can be done, but otherwise per app notification sounds is kind of an annoying area as it completely relies on the developer to provide a custom notification sound otherwise it does a default one.

1000% worth it. I was going into the Apple Store one day to get my watch fixed and I tripped over a curb and totally shattered my phone and watched. Walked out with replacements 30 minutes later.

I switched after the Samsung Note 7 fiasco, never looked back, and have never missed it. I was a pretty hardcore Android nerd too, built custom ROMs and kernels and whatnot. It takes a second to get used to but once the muscle memory is there it’s seamless. As far as apps, I think what you’ll notice is how noticeably polished the iOS versions are, and you’re gonna love the battery life, especially if you’re coming from Samsung.

This this this! The app is amazing, not to mention that compared to competition as far as I found (others charging 8-10 plus Canadian dollars) for all the features it only costs 2.79. This isn’t even mentioning that it has a widget for the left-side widget menu which has a quick access scroll shot combining feature without having to open the app itself.

I can’t recommend the app enough if the topic of scrollshots comes up so it was nice to see someone else mention it. It was the only feature I greatly missed from the Samsung phone I had before, and it filled that role wonderfully.

You are the first coward I've come across that's too dumb to provide an example, and at the same time claims that's a ridiculous request. lol! Did you drop out of college or was it just not your thing? I appreciate the attempt to bully me but I think your time would be better spent elsewhere, imo. If you keep responding with dumb comments I will continue to embarrass you . Frankly, you're making it too easy.
