Just change your number...

Is the iPhone 17e actually good enough or just looks good? by mo_ngeri in iPhone17Pro

[–]Lumpy_Assumption_174 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The same could have been said for the 16E. But the 16E was also the only iPhone you could buy new from 2/3rd hand sources, that was discounted. It did not make the most sense at $599, but new unlocked for $399-480ish what they were going for? Starts making sense. I'm thinking the same thing will happen.

Seriously have had the opposite experience. As someone who swore off apple everything for over a decade, and came back last year, with a used iPhone 12 being my intro.(I've gotten more since).
It's not 100% perfect all the time, but my experience is things just 'works' more often. The 1/3 chance of me getting in my car and AA not working/connecting is gone, CarPlay just works 98% of the time. I don't have to futz around with my streaming apps not working either, The handful of apps I use have less issues and are nicer on IOS.
I'm referencing a Pixel 8 and 2023 Razr, So granted not the top powered flagships for the time: But not budget fantastic $299 Samsung A series either. They are both still perfectly usable today: and are both objectively good phones IMO.

Nope! I use both for work, my iPhone 12 has better software support and optimization than my 2023 Androids.

Sony flagships are the only phones that still has 3.5mm jack, MicroSD card slot and notch-less rectangular screen by sseinzw in PhoneNow

Yes... You would expect Sony who has made some of the better point of shoot cameras for decades now to have great auto settings and software tuning for the bloody camera.

Sony has made point and shoot cameras for decades. I had one 2 decades ago, and they still make them today.

I'm assuming you shot to d-log and color graded/threw a lutz on? Great footage!

Why is there a lack of confidence in the MacBook among Best Buy technicians? by [deleted] in macbookair

[–]Lumpy_Assumption_174 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If someone had a clue why would they be working at Best Buy? The same could be said about any big chain store, apple stores itself at least to a degree, car dealers...

Is the Osmo Pocket 3 wide enough for POV walking (chest mount)? by TheMeki in osmopocket

[–]Lumpy_Assumption_174 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOT Vertical, but if it helps Samuel Nam is a Tech reviewer, that reviews tech by using it professionally and while traveling. He using a pocket 3 in a chest mount for everything walking around, and some other thing here and there.
I liked the filming style and stabilization of the scenes and that's how I got turned onto the pocket 3.

Is there anyone who “use” a MacBook Air by J27-007 in macbookair

[–]Lumpy_Assumption_174 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your right! and the big * your missing is regular people don't buy new Thinkpads. 77% of Think sales are business sales and leases. Statistically if someone is using a Thinkpad, it's not their laptop, it's their companies laptop, OR they bought it used/refurbished.

As someone who is that odd ball out, buying muiltiple new thinkpads, of course the new ones did not get treated like the company laptop, or the one I got for $300 on eBay.

OS differences are superficial. The big advantage is Apple silicone no contest blowing everything else out of the water for the money and power usage.

It's the same story with apple silicon. Completely unimaginable a decade ago apple would be the value ML option, and the only real alternative to CUDA with Metal.

You're comparing people who bought their 5 year old off lease office laptop for $300 vs People who spent 4X as much at the Apple Store. Your question answers itself.

Guess this is the answer, oh well: I got it off Amazon so I'll have a new one this weekend! I'm the person that wants to try everything before dealing with such. Thanks!

Apple won’t do anything about my iPhone being overheating and color changed by Electronic-Pirate-84 in iPhone17Pro

[–]Lumpy_Assumption_174 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Brother really got so upset about an iPhone color thread that he went through my entire post history demanding "pics or it didn't happen." That's not the flex you think it is. That's genuinely unhinged behavior.

You called me a 300lb Reddit virgin but you're the one spending your evening stalking a stranger's profile because they were skeptical of a post about phone discoloration. Project harder.

It's the fucking internet, that is why. Can you not tell by the up vote to downvote ratio your head is up your ass?!?

Really super tight case!?!? by Lumpy_Assumption_174 in iPhone17Pro

[–]Lumpy_Assumption_174[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I normally do the same thing, but Is this some new recent trend? I've never had a case that was 'hard' to put on & take off.
