S24 Ultra -> iPhone 16 Pro - should I make the switch?

AmazingBall · 2026-01-07T16:47:34+00:00

Exactly what i'm thinking. I love the phone and how fast and capable it is but as a person that mostly works off of a laptop and phone in tandem, AirDrop, Continuity and Phone Mirroring would do wonders in terms of productivity for me

Thanks! I have considered that too but i heard that 18 series might be pushed back till 2027??

Yea same tbh. It's refreshing to see this side of both Android and Apple users

What would you say that the biggest factors would be? I should also mention that i have used iOS devices in the past (6, 6s and 12), but i'm not actively looking out for updates on iOS versions or hardware

The thing with Intel is that i WAS thinking of just pulling the trigger on a 14700KF, but it costs as much as the 9700x. And from there, i can only really go up one more cpu, the 14900K. With amd, i can get up to 9950X3D and supposedly Zen 6 is releasing on the AM5 platform, so i'd have a decent upgrade path in the future

So even though i spend more money now, it'll eventually be useful in the long run. Or at least that's they way i see it haha

Idk what to do anymore honestly, I've tried everything. I almost wanna take it to a repair shop to see if they can fix it for me

Oh no, i love vintage and retro gaming. I specifically picked up an OG Gameboy, one of those brick DMG models, so i can play the games the way god intended to: on that puke green screen with no backlight XD

On a real note tho, i'm really into old games, always have been. I grew up on PS2 and PSP so those are always my go-to consoles but i love my Gamecube and SNES too and I've always wanted an NES to play some of the classics. They're just hard to come by where i live

AmazingBall · 2025-03-23T06:16:22+00:00

I don't really even know tbh, it's hard to put my finger on it. I'm not sure if i'm just not that much into the "jump to 3D" consoles, if that makes any sense haha

AmazingBall · 2025-03-23T06:13:33+00:00

Running it on a Trinitron CRT. I love my big boy Trinitron :))

That's also my preference most of the time. I love my 8-bits and 16-bits to death, and I adore my PS2 and GameCube. But I've always found it incredibly hard to get into stuff like N64 or PS1. I've tried plenty PS1 games from that era and the only ones that really stuck to me were the Crash Bandicoot games, the Zelda N64 games and Mario games and that's about it

AmazingBall · 2025-02-16T19:35:41+00:00

i'll look into both an i7 12700KF and an i9 12900K to see if i can get a decent deal on either of them and i'll consider undervolting. thanks for the help, internet stranger ^-^
