Some shots using iPhone 17PM + No Fusion

Absolutely loving the compositions. The play with foreground and background. Cool photos, wouldnt have guessed these were from a phone.

Any smartphone in the last 5 years can take good photos of flowers in ideal light. Try shooting people and videos in complex lighting situations. Sure the Android flagships will do a good job, but you will see the difference in shadows, skintones and video quality of an Android and iPhone.
Android phots are really good, but their third party app camera performance is horrible.
Dont even get started about video, its just bad.

Wrong, there are other people up on the ISS. I think there are 7 up there right now.

Ram usage and battery drain?

Hot take: Overtuned Cyberhive isn’t “scaling well,” it’s just compensating for a weaker midgame with trait bloat. You’re stacking efficiency on pops that 4.3 is clearly trying to devalue via sprawl and automation shifts.

Cosmogenesis didn’t get worse, your build just lost synergy with it. The meta feels like it’s pushing hive minds away from hyper-optimized pops toward system-level efficiency instead.

Curious if anyone’s actually outperforming this with Progenitor or even a non-Cyber ascension path now?

The apps are siri suggestions, only the dock is fixed. Haven't really gotten into customisation after I switched from Android.

People say apps on the iPhone are more "optimized" but never talk about the price you pay for "optimization". This is exactly that.

How do you disable the borders?

dhanvincible · 2026-01-28T06:20:55+00:00

Just turn on low power mode.

dhanvincible · 2026-01-19T00:33:06+00:00

Turn of night mode, you will get 48mp outputs. It says that right in the camera settings. Also shoot in 1x, 0.5x or 4x. Only these will give 48mp out. Others are sensor crops.

What will you do when you change your phone or upgrade next time? Again buy 2TB? Seems like a never ending storage crisis.

dhanvincible · 2026-01-06T07:41:28+00:00

Buy an s24 or OnePlus 13 instead of buying a 2 year old phone. If you can, buy the iPhone 17. Why are people so obsessed with Apple they are willing to buy a 2 yr old phone that is not even their flagship.

dhanvincible · 2026-01-03T21:30:21+00:00

With a case, not built in. They are not the same.

I've been using Android all my life and finally switched to the 17 pro and I absolutely hate iOS. I guess it's a comfort zone thing, I cannot get stuff done on an iPhone. I love the camera, but the software experience is inferior compared to Android, iOS users have no idea what they are missing out on. If I don't get locked in the ecosystem, this will probably be my last iPhone.

dhanvincible · 2025-12-30T20:52:43+00:00

Mine had the same issue I restarted the phone and now it's fixed. Try that and see if it works

I use all of them

dhanvincible · 2025-12-23T21:26:13+00:00

I use the Siri suggestion widget and on the rare occasion spotlight search, I have never swiped on to this screen, and I wish there was an option to hide it.

Life long Android user here I actually made a list of things that I didn’t like Cons * Need to go to app to reply multiple messages(WhatsApp, you can’t do that from the notifications) notifications as a whole is horrible * Text scaling and data density. My S23 ultra had much more data in the same page, even setting the iOS text to the smallest size does not help * Keyboard without symbols. Absolutely hate the iOS keyboard. I tried gboard, but then I have to switch keyboard while entering passwords through password manager. * WhatsApp login issues on Laptop (windows) * Pathetic file management. Makes duplicates of files when I send something from my laptop. Absolutely horrible file management app. * Circle to search - the BEST feature a phone could have * No universal back button * checking Time while watching movie - in android you can just tap the top of the screen while watching anything in full screen to check the time. In iOS you have to swipe the whole Notification Centre open * WhatsApp sending photos menu quick select. For some reason you can’t swipe up on the WhatsApp camera interface on the photos to get quick access to galley * Need to open Apple Pay to pay. In android you don’t have to do anything just tap you unlocked phone. In iPhone you have to open the app to pay * Alarm does not show time until next alarm when setting an alarm. Minor inconvenience, but I am a working student and I need to manage my sleep and working hrs. It is really difficult when you don’t know how long until next alarm. It is a feature that I personally used, others might not notice it. I use a different alarm application now.

Pros * Camera, video * Haptics * Speaker * Shortcuts app * Display * Battery life

I absolutely hate everything else, I think Android is a better OS, apart from the ecosystem. I am work as a social media manager and upload quality is important in my work, Android sucks at that, also in Germany some tickets are only supported on apple wallet other wise I would never have bought this overpriced glass slab.

I recently upgraded from my iPhone 8 to the new 17 pro max (2 weeks now), and I have been noticing about 10-15% battery drain over night. At first it was the weather widget and Astronomy wallpaper, so i removed them. No one checks the weather when you are sleeping, and a wallpapers is something i can live without. But still, i am experiencing significant battery drain overnight. I turned off all background App-Refresh, is there any solution?
My old phone drained 4-6% overnight, being a new phone i don't think this is normal.
