    iPhone 7+ hot while charging

    Anyone else notice this? I had originally hooked it up to an old iPad wall adapter and it got extremely hot, to a point where I thought it might shut itself down, so I swapped out to the iPhone wall adapter just to reduce the amount of juice, but it still got really hot. It was also making the...

    Apple's Charging Case/ Battery Deterioration

    Hey everyone! I just bought my iPhone 7 an Apple branded charging case. I realized that once my phone is in the case it automatically charges my phone without any kind of switch to turn it off. It's kinda neat to have my phone charging all day but I can't help but wonder, is my iPhones battery...

    iPhone 7 plus video Chroma 4.2.2 vs 4.4.4

    Hi everyone, When talking about video capture quality, most people relate to the resolution of 1080p and 4k, but the encoding process is much more important. The fact is that the same 1080p video will look much better when downscaled from 4k rather than captured natively at 1080p. The reason is...

    Canceling an order with Sprint and buying a phone outright from Apple?

    So I was on a prepaid plan with Virgin Mobile. Wasn't thrilled there and was even less thrilled with how they handled what was supposed to be their release of iPhone 7. I'm moving states as well and did not like the idea that buying from them, after paying for the phone outright, still meant...

    iPhone 7 continually drops service

    I received my iPhone 7 128GB Verizon on launch day, and since then I've had the hardest time keeping LTE or even 3G. I will unlock my phone with 1 bar of LTE and then turn on and off airplane mode and receive a whole bunch of texts and notifications. Ive never had this problem with any iPhone...

    6+ to 7+

    I am sure that this has been discussed before but couldn't find a thread. For those of you that switched from a 6+ to 7+, are you happy? Are the differences worth the swap? Thanks for the feedback!

    iPhone Aluminium Loses Dry/Matte Feel

    For those who use their iPhones naked do you notice with time the alumnium of the phone seems to absorb our natural body oils and loses the dry/matte feel? I notice when I get new iPhone the aluminium feels much better likely due to not being exposed to regular finger and hand touching. Anyone...

    Hey everyone! Has anyone who has their 7 Plus noticed (could be an issue with the 7 as well, I don't know) that when you press the home button to close an app, that it has a strange lined graphic issue on the app icon? Or is that just me? I've been noticing it more and more as I watch for it...

    Microsoft Sync Issues with iPhone 7 Plus

    It occasionally skips and randomly goes to 3x speed for a few seconds like it's trying to catch up from the skipping. It seems to be related to when I try to use the phone for anything else at the same time. Like maps, scrolling through my playlists, etc. My wild and extravagant hypothesis: The...
