I’m actually the opposite, upgraded from an 11 Pro to a 13 Pro Max a couple months back, and the extra screen space and the bigger size instantly felt so much nicer and better to use. The bigger screen felt more immersive for me as well, and the 120Hz is a nice addition as well.

If you don’t use sideloaded apps or lean heavily on the voice assistant you lose nothing in the transition, it’s just going to take a brief adjustment period getting used to the new OS. If you do lean heavily on google assistant maybe reconsider, Siri is kinda shit.

Any Bluetooth earphones will work perfectly well with an iPhone, Apple’s devices just have extra features. In terms of Bluetooth audio the only non-SBC codec supported is AAC, which is implemented extremely well on Apple devices. It’s generally better than aptx and audibly nearly equivalent to LDAC at its highest bitrate, and equivalent at lower more stable bitrates.

If you’re shopping for new Bluetooth earphones and have an iPhone you may as well just get Airpods, they’re among the best on the market anyway.

> Do yourself a favor and watch all the stupid little iOS trick YouTube videos. No one tells you to hold the space at down to move the courser for editing words or to use your finger to slash the numbers in calculator to delete your last action.

This is a big one, iOS has a lot of little gestures and such that aren’t really documented and which make a huge difference in usability.

I use iPhone 6s 64 GB variant. Here's how I manager my storage.

  1. For photos I usually back them up to my computer using iTunes or by directly connecting it to my computer to backup the DCIM folder. Then I remove any photos I do not want to keep on the iPhone to make some room to take more pictures or download media from apps. I try to stay away from iCloud for backing up photos. Self storage of your photos is good in a way. If you feel otherwise, try using iCloud as a solution.
  2. Offload unused apps - Your app data is preserved on your phone but the apps are in a way removed to recover storage space.
  3. Go to settings > general > iPhone storage and see which apps are using up more storage space. Deleting an app removes the app + data. Offloading will remove just the unused app but retain the data.
  4. Clear safari's browser cache/cookies or browsing data regularly since you have just a 16GB capacity.
  5. Delete old mail storage and iMessage / messages. You can setup messages to keep data for a particular period of time and auto delete.
  6. Also see if this helps to clear up some 'system data' - https://www.reddit.com/r/ios/comments/u8jo49/comment/i5ll7sa/?context=3 . iOS usually handles this automatically but this is a workaround as a manual approach.

Like someone else said, you should give more detail otherwise people will likely just say “go for the iPhone” since it’s an iPhone sub

What do you need from the phone? What attracts you on each phone you named? Which mobile operating systems do you have experience with? Any preference with the OS? Any cons about each phone that make you hesitant on picking it?

That kind of stuff

Reply to comment by orbit123 in Aussie weather app by Baaastet

It just refers to them using the bom as a "data source" - it doesn't specify that they use forecast data.

For the suburb I'm in right now, the BOM forecast tomorrow is 21-25 degrees with a 100% chance of rain. The Apple forecast for the exact same area is 17-24 degrees with a 70% chance of rain. That's a pretty big difference. Even the current temperature is wrong, the BOM's data is showing that it's currently 24 degrees here, while apple is saying 26.

The only BOM data I've ever seen on the Apple weather app is weather warnings, and when there's a severe thunderstorm warning it'll show up on my lock screen widget as well as in the weather app with a link to the BOM warning text.
