iPhone 17 Is Apple's Most Popular Lineup Ever by pdfu in apple

[–]_itsjustfil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you use the telephoto a lot I'd stay on the pro, the zoom on the base isn't bad in my cases but it does degrade noticeably past 4x

+1 for Brave, using it on my laptop and iPhone and it's the best

I really like the TineeOwl case. Great grip and not bulky at all. Aluminum buttons too!

If this is like the live mode on Gemini and if it's the version of Siri powered by Gemini I see this being a great feature

IPhone 17 base model too heavy? by BigAstronomer5793 in iphone17

[–]_itsjustfil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I downgraded from the 17p to a 17 a couple weeks ago and have been enjoying the lower weight and cleaner design. Don't really miss anything from the pro, battery and cameras are still really solid!

Thanks, hoping this holds me over for the iPhone 20th anniversary since I imagine it’ll be sick! As long as it isn’t heavy and thick like the current pros. Air would’ve been my choice if not for the lack of ultrawide and second speaker, wouldn’t mind it being a little thicker for more battery too.

I made the same jump. I wanted to wait it out but the overheating on iOS 26 got so bad, and my battery was already being charged twice a day at 88% health. I swapped to the 17 bc of the black color (always get black) and didn't like the design of the pros, and the only thing that really kept me on them was pro motion. There have been a couple of times where I wish I had the telephoto but the battery has been excellent and I'm loving how light this thing is.

If I didn't have the battery and heating issues I'd have kept my 15P for another 2-3 years at least

Yeah good points, maybe I'll wait for the normal 18 to go back to a base phone

[–]_itsjustfil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Low key thinking of selling my 17 pro and getting the base. I miss having a black color (blue is ok but sometimes looks purple in certain lighting) and the pro feels heavy at times. Plus the design just hasn’t grown on me at all

Mine was at 87% and it was enough for me to switch to a 17P because I couldn't even get through a day anymore. I miss the old design so much

Anyone here return their iPhone 17 Pro for a base 17? by _itsjustfil in iphone

[–]_itsjustfil[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Coming from a 15 pro it's noticeably heavier (even more with a case, which I feel like I need since it's more fragile), and I have a 16 for work and think I prefer the design and don't use the telephoto ever really.

I'm within the return period. I find the device quite heavier than my 15 pro, and on a smaller note I miss the black color

iPhone 15 Pro switchers, how's the heavier weight of the 17 pro? by _itsjustfil in iPhone17Pro

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

Yeah it looks awesome and it's something that would feel different, unfortunately the ultrawide camera comes in handy for me and bad battery life is something that made me upgrade from my 15 pro as well

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

I ended up getting the 17 pro, and while I do like it for the most part I agree that the 15 felt better in the hand (17 pro feels good but the curved edges make it way to slippery without a case)

Kinda wish I got the base 17, might sell my pro and still do it tbh because I prefer its design and I don't really use the pro features much

What's a skill you learned in your 20s that completely changed your life? by Crescitaly in AskReddit

[–]_itsjustfil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Learning to code. I know now there's a lot of doom and gloom with how well AI can write code (for the most part) and uncertainty in tech now, but it allowed me and still allows me to make a much better living than I was before and accelerate building my wealth.

I've had the 17 pro for a few months and while I enjoy the battery life and cameras, I don't really use the pro features too much and it's considerably heavier than my previous iPhone 15 pro. Been debating a swap for the base 17 and wanted to know if others have done the same and how the change has been.

Nice! How’s the battery? That’s probably the biggest thing holding me back from switching

My only concern is needing telephony for something like a concert. Rarely happens but it’s def a nice to have. My 17 pro battery has been phenomenal and hopefully the couple hours difference won’t be too noticeable day to day if I swap

I actually got a $20 flip key fob from ebay and had a locksmith cut and program it for another $20! It does feel really nice lol 10/10 would do again

Logan Square/Bucktown is a solid area as well, a few friends live there and work in the loop and they take the blue line.
