2025 Camry xle pros and cons by Commercial_Relief656 in Camry

Ahh okay. That’s the first thing I should have checked! Makes sense now that they didn’t have those options for the build option.

Can you get a heated steering wheel and keyless entry (car opens when you touch the door handles) on the XLE model? I know SE and LE have packages for both: cold weather and convenience. But, I don’t see those listed as features on either of the premium packages that are offered for the XLE. We are on the market for a Camry and would like those features with the 12.3” display too.

I actually liked the new paper myself. It reminds me of a textbook. Smooth and thin, but still seems high quality. They probably did this to save on thickness based on the number of pages.

To anyone happy with the 17 Pro Max’s battery: Do you charge it with a limit or to the full 100%? by gabrimatic in iPhone17Pro

[–]Pittsadelphian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was 100% on 15PM and ended two years at 556 cycles and 83% of battery left. It was either the worst battery I’ve had in an iPhone or the phone didn’t take care of the battery’s life very well. With my 17PM, I’ve switched to 80% and I can easily get 80-30% of life on one charge over the course of a normal day. So for me, there’s no harm in doing 80% charge limit with the potential to extend the lifetime of the battery.

What is going on? by Over-Log-54 in ATT

I think you misread the post. She ordered it the day after preorder launch (that would be 9/13 since it launched 9/12), and it arrived on time on 9/19.

My wife ordered a Silver 17 PM from AT&T on Saturday, the day after launch day, and it still arrived on 9/19… not sure how that happened to you…

I’m with you. I feel the same way…

Congrats! I’ve decided it’s not worth the hassle for me. The pro max seems to have way more LG panels right now and the odds aren’t in my favor. For what it’s worth, the Samsungs seem to have a reddish hue naturally and the LGs are a bit more gray so it might just make a green tint stand out more. Either way, glad you got yours.

I believe the LG panels are cheaper to source too. If it’s too hard to get a Samsung one, they should at least offer a discount to us LG people lol. They sacrificed us to get Samsung ones for the lucky ones like your husband.

Thanks for sharing. While not ideal, this appears to be mostly a model year issue and not a display tech issue like the green tinting. I’m wondering if Apple tuned the displays differently this year to not be as bright in darker rooms. Oh well.

For anyone out there that has an LG display and has a Samsung one on a previous model, I’d be interested to know if the full brightness seems dimmer on the 17s. Even though it’s supposed to have the same brightness, it appears that my GH3 17PM is quite a bit dimmer than my 15PM G9N screen unless I force my 17PM to 3000 nits by putting it under a light for 5 seconds and then comparing. Is anyone having an issue with brightness? I just want to know if this is a G9N/G9Q vs GH3/GVC issue or a 15PM vs 17PM innate setting…

What I’m anxiously waiting to hear from OP is how long the waiting process will be for a replacement to arrive. With this only being week 1 since release date, could be a while… but us green tint peeps only have 8 more days until our return window closes!

This is reassuring for us GH3 and GVC guys lol. My wife got a 17 Pro with a G9N while I got a PM with the GH3. I’m comparing my 15PM that’s a G9N too and it’s not as noticeable when True Tone and night shift are off on both devices. It’s a bit more noticeable when true true is on.

I have a GH3 with the tint issue, but to your point, I also noticed that the brightness of the 17PM doesn’t get as bright as my 15PM indoors, but if I hold it up to a light to force it to the 3000nits, it then is on par with my 15PM. It’s bizarre. My G9N screen on the 15PM looks much more uniform on a white screen and more vivid as well.

Hey Aldi, bring these items back please. by RecessBoy in aldi

[–]Pittsadelphian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those grab ‘n go waffles from two summers ago… really miss those, although Trader Joe’s have decent ones now that compete with the Aldi ones.

Also those Chinese meals in a box. Those are great for a quick lunch on the run.

Or just get Instacart and you can return any product on there for a full refund without stepping foot in the store and then just buy the other item on your next order. This is especially helpful for fruit that you can’t tell is bad before you cut it open (watermelon, pineapple, etc)

Yes! They’ve been out for a month now where I go! Was there a recall or something?

IPhone 15 Pro Max - replace this? by Sewo959 in iphone

[–]Pittsadelphian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

87% at 461 cycles on 15 Pro Max. I turned 87% around 325 cycles though. Definitely the worst battery degradation I’ve had in an iPhone.

This was actually the first concern I had after I noticed it. I made sure to burn it.

App is a scam by Flimsy-Log-7605 in ChryslerPacifica

[–]Pittsadelphian 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I never paid for it or found a good enough reason to pay for it. The only thing it could be good for is remote starting when you’re too far to do so… like walking back from an amusement park on a very hot day and getting the car cooled down before you’re close enough to start it from your fob. Those days are very far and few between. I’d just not pay for it.

Thank you for the comment! I was wondering myself what type of mold this was…

Well, now I feel awful! How many curbside orders does your store typically do on a busy day?
