QUOTE(westlife @ Jul 13 2023, 10:30 AM) yeah. i upgraded to iphone 14 pro max from iphone X after 5 years. initially i wanted to wait for usb-c before i change. unfortunately, the iphone x does not allow me to play my mobile game which i am forced to change. so i am holding the last iphone with lighning port.  I wanted to change to iPhone 14 Pro Max too due to the aging of iPhone X and having multiple issues with the phone that impacted my work. Sadly, knew iPhone 15 only Apple will introduce USB C, so I decided to try Android by migrating to S23U. QUOTE(wong_86 @ Jul 13 2023, 11:03 AM) i don't see USB C is a major upgrade to iphone, nowadays all using cloud solution to transfer or backup iphone data. Maybe more faster charging, need comply the EU rules I see it as a huge upgrade as it will aligned all my devices to just 1 port. From my Macbook Pro to iPad Pro to phones, work laptop and the new iPhone 15, all can be use with just 1 type of cable This post has been edited by MasBoleh!: Jul 20 2023, 05:09 PM

QUOTE(fruitie @ Sep 16 2023, 09:26 PM) Economy is not good, it’s true. But not all are affected. This is the truth.  I remember you said you got an S23U, so you plan to bring 2 massive phones everytime you go out? How you plan to handles this issue? Since I know you planned to get iPhone Pro Max QUOTE(blacktubi @ Sep 16 2023, 10:04 PM) I thought I can finally eliminate the lighting cable when travelling until I remember that I still need it for my AirPods Pro :x Luckily my Galaxy Buds 2 Pro edi USB C, thinking of getting the new Airpod Pro USB C variant too

QUOTE(blacktubi @ Sep 16 2023, 10:28 PM) I've tried many earbuds and compared them among my colleagues, so far the AirPods Pro is best for calls even when used with ThinkPad.  Yup, would probably get a few of those and try not to lose them. Don't think it's MFi certified but as long as it charges the AirPods. I would agree, Samsung did not do a good job with their Samsung Buds 2 Pro, using an older Bluetooth technology which resulted unable to perform seamless connectivity between different devices. So like it or not, I have to change this out. haha

QUOTE(fruitie @ Sep 16 2023, 11:18 PM) Agreed. I have Sony XM5 headphones and my colleagues said it’s not clear on my ThinkPad, I stick to AirPods Pro for my conference calls and XM5 for entertainment purposes. AirPods Pro also for my traveling due to its small size. Not me. That’s my partner. We only use that S23U if we go concerts, other time it’s kept in drawer. Our daily phones are iPhone Pro Max. ahh i see. Hmm... i asked because i am having this dilemma to go for Pro Max or not since I have the S23U just like your partner. But i guess, this is something I need to ponder myself with

QUOTE(Andrewtst @ Sep 17 2023, 12:55 PM) I will not buy AirPods as they sound bad. If you want only Apple TWS, you should go with AirPods Pro second gen which came with USB-C case now. Glad to see you here mate, and also glad to see you joining the Apple Ecosystem

QUOTE(ftan @ Sep 19 2023, 07:47 PM) I have both types of phone holder. Bought a few types to experiment for the fun of it. I’m glad I bought them few months ago as I see the prices now is 2-3 times more (specific brand). The magnet phone holder is my preference. I’m using with Spigen MagSafe case. It can do wireless charging but I use it mainly to hold the phone. So far so good. The other phone holder can auto adjust once u slip your phone in for wireless charging. But need to connect to the car usb in order for the auto thingy to work. Kinda bulky but it’s quite convinient too. Sigh. I’m really tempted to get the iPhone 15 pro max now instead of waiting for next year. Dilemma. Do you have the link to the magnet phone holder? I had bad experiences with Baseus magnet phone holder, the whole front part of the magnet phone holder dislocated due to constant pulling due to I have to pull the phone out when not in use.

QUOTE(tzxsean @ Sep 20 2023, 09:11 PM) the 80% charge limit and battery cycle count cant be said as feature though it's all bout software ... old iPhones should get it QUOTE(HumanExtinction @ Sep 21 2023, 12:26 AM) should make it available to all devices that can run ios 17 actually a good thing also, so can see the seller got abused the battery or not  not sure this will available to all iPhones with iOS 17 or not, I think Apple just wanna raise the attraction for iPhone 15 series first, then maybe subsequent software updates in future only enabled for the rest of the other older iPhone series. Nevertheless, I am so excited together with you guys now...
