Do share your experience with latest iOS ya!  biggrin.gif

To be very frank, I feel it’s responsiveness is the same if not better than in iOS 10.3.3!

Wow I’m impressed seriously ! rclxms.gif

Now it is just a question to change the battery before year end and keep using this phone for another 2 years, or sell it and upgrade to this year iPhone x2 xD

Since it’s still under warranty, I would suggest you to try your luck to change the battery under warranty and so you will have to pay nothing for it smile.gif

Haha, long way to go before the next iPhone folks. In any case, selling your existing phone helps cover a portion of the cost of the next one. Anyways, the 7 Plus with 3GB RAM on iOS should be good for another 3 years minimum!

Yes bro, agree on it! thumbup.gif whistling.gif

the beta thingy shows my battery at 95%, meaning still good? so i shall replace the battery by dec 2018, so i will able to use the phone for another 3 years from that date you guys mean?

It is up to you bro, how long is ur phone??

Normally the phone will slow down once the battery health is 80% or lower. Looking at your battery health which is currently at95%, i think at most it will drop to around 88% when it is Dec 2018.

How old is the phone? Battery wear at 87% is a bit high, other than that, check the screen for dead pixels, water damage and make sure the Touch ID is working.

I think it is reasonable if the phone has been used since day1 of launch. Even mine is at 88% battery health now hmm.gif

haha, i also thinking the same thing but my friend said best price d , cannot discount d......
btw, talking about the replacement battery program, our IP7 plus is ip67 standard, service center Malaysia qualified to replaced the battery & maintain the ip67 standard?

By right, if they are AASP, they should be able to perform repair up to the standards of Apple. So in this case i think the workers must have been specially trained before they got the status of AASP.

My iPhone 7 Plus battery drain faster in iOS 11.3.1 than it was in 11.3.

I also noticed some lag in iOS 11.3.1

So, I would really advice you guys to skip iOS 11.3.1

After updates to latest iOS phone seems to keep restarting on the network. Keep on no service then the network resume again.

Anyone facing such problem? Any advice?

Hi, I plan to change battery as well.
Did you factory reset your phone before hand in?
I afraid data/photo might get stolen.

Walk in or book appointment?
*
Hey, yes i did backup and factory reset before i send my phone in. I think you should as well as you will not want to risk yourself from being the victim of data theft whistling.gif

In my case, Thunder allows me to just walk in. I send in early morning and got it back in the evening. I believe other AASP do require you to make appointment in advance

this might be a silly question...but how do you guys recover whatsapp msgs after factory reset ?

I done a full backup using Itunes and when i restore my phone, all whatsapp chat history is already there.

Else, you might try to back up it using icloud ??

My battery (changed since 3rd Dec 2018) is now 99% of health after one month of usage.

My charging pattern is that I charge my phone whenever I’m with charger (rarely the phone goes less than 50% battery)
