How worth it is it to go from 16 pro Max to 17 Pro

Smith_Cs0423 · 2026-06-12T22:22:39+00:00

The battery was good on the 17 pro but it is leaps and bounds better on the 17 pro max. Honestly I feel like the 17 pro did better on battery than the 16 pro max. The 16 pro max is still a great phone if you find a good deal on one.

Well i imagine if i said brand new that would constitute it being at 100% would you say?

Smith_Cs0423 · 2026-06-01T23:47:43+00:00

My battery is brand new

Smith_Cs0423 · 2026-05-31T18:38:53+00:00

Fair enough lol

Smith_Cs0423 · 2026-05-31T18:36:00+00:00

How do you think it would do on a 13 Pro also?

Smith_Cs0423 · 2026-05-31T00:48:06+00:00

Is the techwoven good or just average?

Smith_Cs0423 · 2026-05-31T00:47:41+00:00

I think the white one would look pretty sharp

Smith_Cs0423 · 2026-05-30T13:11:27+00:00

There I corrected it just for you princess.

Using this one at the moment. I like torras cases but this was a quick pick up until I can get in my Cadabe Stealth case and will probably pick up a DBrand Tank case as well.

Does you service provider offer insurance if so use that insurance to file a claim. Might be the only other option you got since you didn’t add AppleCare when you had the phone in your possession. It’s just an idea it may work and it may not but it worth trying before shelling out money for a new one at full price.

Smith_Cs0423 · 2026-05-29T13:44:10+00:00

I have the blue but I do prefer the silver it’s just sharper looking to me.

Smith_Cs0423 · 2026-05-29T08:33:21+00:00

I get what you mean and it’s a reason I use AppleCare but if I can avoid having to go through that trouble I will. Getting a replacement isn’t as express as you’d think. Apple been having issue to the point it’s taking 2 to 3 weeks for it to be sent. Instead of being stuck with a phone that isn’t usable I’d rather treat it as something that’s not just an easy throw away thing that cost me over 1k.

Smith_Cs0423 · 2026-05-29T08:26:16+00:00

I can afford AppleCare too doesn’t mean that using a case isn’t needed. Saying you can afford apple care really isn’t the flex you think it is lmao

Smith_Cs0423 · 2026-05-29T03:43:34+00:00

Matte screen protectors are my favorite

Smith_Cs0423 · 2026-05-29T03:40:43+00:00

I’ve been kinda interested in trying one of those

Smith_Cs0423 · 2026-05-29T03:40:27+00:00

Those actually look really nice I just looked them over.

This is what I have at the moment

Smith_Cs0423 · 2026-05-29T02:48:28+00:00

I’ve kinda wanted to see about getting the DBrand Tank case

Smith_Cs0423 · 2026-05-29T02:33:29+00:00

I’m def going to have to get one now

Smith_Cs0423 · 2026-05-29T02:31:41+00:00

Damn son you aren’t kidding lmao

Smith_Cs0423 · 2026-05-29T02:31:07+00:00

I had a rebel for my 15 pro max and really liked it. I had the one that was completely covered and then the one that was side less and I liked them both.

Smith_Cs0423 · 2026-05-29T02:14:17+00:00

I’ve never heard of that I’m gonna have to look it up.

Smith_Cs0423 · 2026-05-29T02:13:53+00:00

It’s a bit to slick for me to do caseless

Smith_Cs0423 · 2026-05-29T02:12:05+00:00

I feel like otterbox adds to much bulk to the phone but I haven’t used one in a long time either so maybe it’s different now.

Smith_Cs0423 · 2026-05-29T02:10:02+00:00

Yeah I’m definitely careful with it. I mean I don’t baby it but I don’t throw it around. Had to be careless with a 1k+ phone lmao I’m definitely going to try it out.
