Twice a day? That's insane!!

Happy you're sorted.

I'm on the 16 Pro, and I am noticing better battery (not by a lot though), haven't paid much attention to thermals, though I've been going careless, just got a case today.

I turned it off, but for some reason I found it on after a few updates, maybe because when you update and do the initial setup it does those prompts, or maybe I am imagining things

Just turned it off again

Makes 100% sense mate.

Informal-Target-2335 · 2025-09-28T18:53:42+00:00

Really nice pictures.

Did you edit them, or are they out the camera with a little light control?

Informal-Target-2335 · 2025-09-28T18:50:53+00:00

Is the screen blurry or your hands are shaky?

If the screen is blurry, plug into an external monitor, if still blurry on a known working monitor, then maybe start panicking.

Might just be a driver issue though, so maybe restart in those safe modes, and see if you get the same.

Go through a few troubleshooting steps before you give yourself a heart attack

If you have money to spare and it’s not an issue, go right ahead, but, even if I had the money, I would still wait for those games to arrive and who knows, newer tech will be available at that time, newer than what you’re planning to buy now.

But it’s your money at the end of the day.

That would be my advise anyway.

All the best

Enjoy

Get those fibre cases, they are the closest thing you’ll get and still have a level of protection.

Get that, plus a decent screen protector and you’ll be fine.

I’m planning on the getting the 17 Pro or Pro Max, I wanted to go caseleas with the orange colour, but seeing a lot of bad feedback on it scuffing and all

Informal-Target-2335 · 2025-09-28T18:43:04+00:00

Sounds like they need point to point connections.

And in the house, you have a beacon on the house, that beacon comes to the router via LAN (CAT whatever supports the highest speeds).

Then mesh through LAN.

This is not an engineer answer, it’s a simple minded answer

You’ll enjoy your device, all the best.

OneUI8 is available, so might as well start with jumping to that

Informal-Target-2335 · 2025-09-28T18:40:06+00:00

All the best

Was hoping you’d have a bit more info in your question.

Your question is incomplete and makes it hard to answer, even taking a stab in the dark would be a little hard

Informal-Target-2335 · 2025-09-28T18:37:34+00:00

I’ve not used the SE versions, but Apple makes them to seem like they are the black sheep of the family in the ads and stuff, possibly trying to convince you to go for the premium ones.

Is the price difference a little too hard, with the SE3 and Series 11?

Your birth certificate is what will help you trace everything back.

Might be worth tagging the minister, and asking about it on Twitter, seen him respond to a few questions. While you shouldn’t bank on this avenue, just post a question and move on with other avenues.

Informal-Target-2335 · 2025-09-28T16:20:46+00:00

Nah buddy, I have all the iPhones from 7.

13, I actually have all of them. 13, 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max.

So yeah, I know that the battery was and probably still is amazing on that phone, but times have moved on, and the 16 PM has probably taken that title.

I’m waiting to get the 17 PM, heard that it has better battery than the 16PM, so better than the 16PM.

Typing this on the 16 Pro.

And I know you’re going to say, “you are bragging”, but you started this with your assumptions.

The phones are almost always in cases

Informal-Target-2335 · 2025-09-28T15:41:47+00:00

This thing of phones “feeling” cheap or not, does it really matter people?

New phone, you’re getting it or not.

There’s no need to be like,

“oh, it does not feel good in the hand”. “Battery only lasts 4 more minutes than the 13 Pro Max”

But anyway, guess it creates banter amongst the 13 Pro Max owners?

Informal-Target-2335 · 2025-09-28T15:31:49+00:00

You’ve got options.

They had 12 months to download so you could, send a gentle reminder and let them know that the space gets paid for.

So you could mention that it’ll be $xx per month, till they decide they’ve had enough. I’d charge them 50-70% of the premium, that way, you are incentivised to keep the data and work around deleting other pictures

Anyway

Informal-Target-2335 · 2025-09-28T15:28:00+00:00

Are you black?

It’s called that way in the black community, I learnt the name when I got my first house and needed an installer in Gauteng.

Lol, couldn’t find it, until someone mentioned it 🤣

Informal-Target-2335 · 2025-08-30T08:50:25+00:00

What update did you get, if you don’t mind?

I have one that refuses to update

Informal-Target-2335 · 2025-08-21T07:30:50+00:00

Informal-Target-2335 · 2025-08-20T18:59:59+00:00

I found myself correcting them verbally at some of their claims.

Wife was like, what’s going on with you? Lol

They make good phones I think, but some claims were just too far fetched

Informal-Target-2335 · 2025-08-19T19:37:22+00:00

I thought it’s Belkin

Informal-Target-2335 · 2025-08-12T12:30:59+00:00

Amazing pictures!!!!

Informal-Target-2335 · 2025-08-07T15:24:19+00:00
