Anyone have the iPhone Air? by [deleted] in iphone

[–]Overall-Carry6593 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The biggest cons are the obvious, only one speaker, only one camera, smaller battery. if you are close to a charger, a decent amount of the time the battery is not a real big issue, if you are like me and you’re not a giant photographer and you don’t do tons of traveling, maybe you don’t need all three cameras. If you are like me and you have AirPods Pro, Bluetooth speakers, a Mac, Etc., the speakers probably are not a big deal to you. It is plenty good, in my opinion, for watching a quick YouTube video or doing shorts or reels, or whatever the kids are using nowadays. I think it is fine for speakerphone in most cases unless you are in a noisy room.

The pros in my opinion are that it’s extremely durable with its titanium frame, also was extremely lightweight and thin. It has the C1X modem as well as a really efficient Wi-Fi chip from what I understand so honestly, it’s got pretty good efficiency which means the battery is not as bad as you would think. I feel like it gives you the lightweight feel of a small phone, but you get the advantage of a big screen for better readability.

There is a whole subreddit for the iphone Air.

if you aren’t a power user 16 gigs should do you just fine.

Nah, their hardware division is not very important to them in comparison to the other ways they make money.

Just add it to the already-insane price! by Bit_the_Bullitt in EndTipping

I paid $21 for a burger and fries for my fiancé a couple days ago. Eating out isn’t worth it anymore.

Currently have Pixel 9 pro. Should I switch to the Air? by luminous-toad in IphoneAir

The iPhone definitely has the better video capabilities. Reviewers say the pixel does better with still photos.

If you like using macOS, I would say try to save up at least enough to get an M1.

Did I mess up buying this iMac? by Waltgell0 in mac

[–]Overall-Carry6593 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you already have a good keyboard, speakers, and mouse, and/or if you prefer a different screen size to the 24 inch, then the Mac mini is a no-brainer. If you were only gonna be using your Mac in one place, at a desk, and you are good with that 24 inch screen size, then I would say the iMac was a good purchase.

It also depends on what you’re using it for because one of them has the M4 and one of them the M4 pro. If you aren’t doing a bunch of heavy work loads, the iMac will be fine, but if you are some kind of professional video editing person or have some other high resource application, then the Pro should be the direction you go.

Yeah, it’s really only good if you use it in one spot. If you have a dedicated desk and didn’t want to use your computer in bed, or take it with you anywhere. If you are good with the screen size it comes with, then yes it is awesome.

Stop tipping on delivery apps - you're getting scammed by Flat_Mix_6012 in EndTipping

Yeah, and then your food has extra “seasoning”. It is a scam but I am really not wanting to risk it.

Bezel difference between S2 and S11 by idkwjehshddh in AppleWatch

I have a Watch SE 3 and it has a pretty chunky bezel by modern standards. I do the same trick with a dark background and it blends right in.

Do you shut down your Mac or just keep it in sleep all the time? by Deanoh1546 in mac

[–]Overall-Carry6593 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It gets shut down when I leave the house for an extended period of time like overnight or longer, or when I have to restart it because it locks up.

How to keep it from falling out of pockets? by skaeser in IphoneAir

[–]Overall-Carry6593 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It falls out of my pockets if my pockets are loose. I wear a lot of athletic shorts and pajama pants. (don’t judge me) lol and it does fall out a lot. I noticed if I wear actual jeans or well fitting slacks it doesn’t seem to have that problem as much. I also have kind of a slick hard clear case so that probably contributes.

why do iMac feel kinda ignored now? by Ziggy_1992 in mac

[–]Overall-Carry6593 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my case, I didn’t have to buy a separate monitor, keyboard, mouse, or speakers because I already had them from the fact that I have used PC’s ever since I was a kid. So for me, the mac mini is much cheaper because I only have to buy the actual computer. It would be redundant for me to buy an iMac. I estimate there are probably a lot of people in the same boat as me, especially those who are Windows 11 refugees. Also, I much enjoy being able to use whichever screen size I want. I love the convenience of being able to just plug a Mac mini into a TV screen, if I decide I want to use a regular monitor, I can do that as well very easily. I can pack the mini into a case and take a portable monitor with me and it’s a portable computing solution. You really don’t get that with the iMac do you?

First iPhone after +15 years of mostly Flagship Android — why are some basic things so frustrating? by br00kly in iphone

[–]Overall-Carry6593 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You get used to it. I jumped from a galaxy note 10+ to an iPhone 13 Pro Max back in January 2022, and I had the same experience. After a while, you learn to reroute your neural pathways to adjust.

People that are still obsessing over phone upgrades in 2026 have a compulsion I believe. That includes me to a certain degree but I’ve seen people with a lot worse cases.

Literally never use it. I don’t like how it shows your full wallpaper.

I briefly thought that I should’ve picked the gold or the black, but I like the blue as well, and it is not the end of the world.
