    Other Revert back to aluminum on the 17 Pro and Pro Max

    Revert back to aluminum on the Pro and Pro Max. It saves weight and has better thermal conductivity. Most likely cheaper as well. It's a win, win, win.

    s4 black aluminum coating vs U2 black DLC coating

    I've been waiting to upgrade my series 4 black aluminum which has worn extremely well (no obvious chips / scratches) on the body with only minor scuffs/surface scratches on the glass. I have not babied or coddled the watch at all and bump the watch on various surfaces all the time. I really...

    iPhone 15 Pro I want a Pro, but with aluminum instead of titanium

    Wishing I could get an iPhone 15/16 Pro but with the blue aluminum & back glass from the 15 instead of the titanium on the 15 Pro. I really don't like the titanium look at all. I love the way aluminum looks. Do you think Apple would ever go back to aluminum stainless steel on Pro? Whoops they...

    Other iPhone - What would you change - Hardware wise.

    Had to stop by my local AT&T store and they had the 14 models out on display. After handling all the models, in hand I liked the feel of the 14 Plus the best, mostly from a feel and weight perspective. That go me thinking; if you could change anything hardware wise on the iPhone 14 (all...

    Which Apple Watch would you buy given the discounts?

    Looking to buy an Apple Watch. Generally I wait til the new one is released, but it just doesn’t sound like the series 8 will have many updates and I was thinking I’d rather have the available discounts. Plus, my series 4 broke and I don’t want to wait the month+ to upgrade. I thought it would...

    Used cellular SS S5 vs New GPS only aluminum S6? (don’t care for health features)

    As the title says, I’m on the market for an Apple Watch after years ago gave up on series 0 and going back to my mechanicals. I was thinking to get the cheapest I could since I only care about the ability to unlock my iPhone while wearing a mask on the next iOS 14.5 updates. But the AW3 older...

    Gold/Yellow Gold/Rose Gold watch face color showing up for S6 Gold ALUM

    So I just got myself the Series 6 Gold Aluminum and as I was customizing my watch faces I noticed that Apple unlocked Gold, Yellow Gold AND Rose Gold color options! Understanding from past models, these colors were locked according to the color case you owned, but it seems that they made it...

    Those with Stainless Steel - is the glare from sapphire display that bad?

    I'm trying to decide between Stainless Steel or Aluminum for my Apple Watch Series 4 order. For me, it boils down the the sapphire screen that's on the stainless steel models. Some reviews I just checked out say that the screen is almost totally unreadable in daylight because of the reflection...

    iPhone 8/Plus iPhone 8 plus 64gb vs iPhone 7 plus 256gb

    I am currently an iPhone 5 user, and want to upgrade to a more recent iPhone. Initially I have set my eyes on the iPhone 8 plus, due to the larger 16:9 aspect lcd screen, great camera and fast A11 processor. The only concern I have is the all-glass design and durability. Recently I found a shop...

    Have you swapped from a SS to a Sport? How did you find the transition?

    Current owner of a 38mm Stainless Steel S0, and starting to get fed up of battery life/slowness. Really tempted by the battery longevity and processing power of the S3, and interested in going for the Sport over the Stainless Steel, primarily for cost reasons. My main concern is durability...

    Little hole in the aluminium body - MacBook Pro 2016

    I noticed that my new MacBook Pro 13" (late 2016), which has something more than two weeks, has this strange tiny hole (I actually don't really know how to describe it) in its aluminium body, right between two keys (E and R). I tried to figure out if this was there from the moment in which I...

    White/dull spots on back of iPhone 6s

    Over the last few months I have noticed small white blotches on the back of iPhone 6s, getting worse and worse each week and it didn't bother me until now. As you can see, the blotches are all over the phone which is highly frustrating. Is this is just wear and tear? Is it an anodising issue...
