      I just got the 11 Pro and facial recognition is worth the price of entry. The fingerprint recognition never worked well for me since my hands are usually sweaty or dirty

      The camera is pretty impressive too. Took a photo of my dog in a dark room and it looks like a well lit photo

      Downgraded the size from the plus model (I had the 8 plus). I already carry so much shit with me I’m  trying to save on weight and pocket space

      I know violence is not the answer, I got it wrong on purpose

        Interesting the growing trend for people to now opt for the smaller sizes…..

          yeah. that's quite

          i was gonna get the XS max (from china or hk) and upgrade from my X last year because of the 2 physical sim slots but decided against it and broke my yearly new iphone streak. However his year, i decided to stick with the 11pro size rather than the pro max because i felt comfortable and saw no reason to get a bigger phone. weirdly enough, i used to use the all Plus models from 6 onwards.. the 11pro has the bigger screen of the Plus models in a smaller packaging which to me is good enough..

            Question for you iphone experts, I have an iphone 7 and have been trying to update to OS13. Unfortunately, when I try to update/install I keep getting an error message and it won't let me follow through. Is it not updating because I have an older iphone or is it something simple like crappy wi-fi?

              @gaseousclay Could be poor wi-fi signal. Are you connected to a charger when trying to do so?

                  good wifi and charger is a good way to update via phone. otherwise just plug it into your computer and update it from itunes/ finder (if you're on catalina already)

                          Nope. I see new photos within a minute or two.

                            i gave up using the new music app awhile ago. it was easier popping up an older macbook to use itunes to sync folders of photos from my computer to my iphone..

                                Im in the market to buy a new one–-but the whole 5G hype isn't enough to get me to get the 12.
                                im looking hard at the 11 lately.
                                I mean sure the cameras are always improving and im sure its great....but 5G isn't even available for my area yet...so that point is mute for me.

                                  well, if you were to get the new 12 with 5G, it will future proof your phone should 5G become available in the near future, especially if you're not the kind of person to upgrade every year.

                                  as for me, i upgrade yearly, the XS was the only year i skipped. i just can't decide this year if i should stick with the pro or go for the max and see what the sensor shift OIS is like. 5G is around the two countries i frequent most so that isn't really a discussion point for me. i will only get a 5G plan when i feel the prices are right..

                                    Since I usually hang on to mine more than a year, sometimes even longer if im happy with how things are running–--I will wait to hear more info from the people who will review theirs as they receive them.
                                    Have to agree though--the max might be super nice.

                                      i've gone from a normal size iphone to their plus and finally back down to the normal sized 11pro. actually got very used to the sizes of the X and 11pro. can't imagine going back bigger again…

                                          So what do people think of the new Macs with the ARM-based Apple M1 CPU?

                                          I don't know what software support is going to be like on the new chips in the short term. Apple has played the transition close to its chest, as they're prone to secrecy, so that's given developers less time to prepare.

                                          My main programs (outside of browsers) are Office and Android Studio. I believe that Microsoft have ported the former, but Jetbrains and Google haven't released a version of the latter.

                                          Overall, they look interesting machines. I'm tempted by one, particularly as I desperately need to upgrade my laptop. (I've got a six year old Surface Pro!)

                                            @Graeme We are going to get a new laptop (with the last of the Intel chips), and try to give everyone a few years to get the bugs worked out with Apples new chip.

                                            I hope that the transition is short termed and bug free, but my gut is telling me I should wait.
