    Hi, Has anyone ever bought an iPhone 14 pro from Very.co.uk? Are the iPhones truly unlocked? Meaning they don’t just lock to first SIM card put in and you can put whatever SIM card you want in it.

    iPhone 14 Pro Max Why are the iPhone cameras not in the center

    When you lay your iPhone down on a desk and want to type something, it isn’t stable and wobbles, because the cameras pop out on the back side and they are not beautifully in the center, but in a corner. It’s kind of ugly, and not the best UX design. Why? The thicker the lenses, the worse it gets.

    iPhone 14 Pro Max Trade-in values imply 2 year holding period: better buy Pro Max

    Apple looks like shifting from yearly upgrade to 2 year upgrades incentives for the consumers. First they gave $790 for 12 PM, then $720 for 13 PM. Apple were giving more trade-in values for new 13 line-up, which is decreasing for new 14 line-up. On the other hand, Apple seems to be offering...

    I have an iPhone 11 Pro Max, and I'd like to use my phone as a continuity cam with my MacBook Pro. However, just about all of the mounts I find use MagSafe to connect the phone to the MacBook Pro. Since the iPhone 11 can't use MagSafe, I need a non-magnetic mount that I can use with it. Can...

    AppleCare+ iPhone 14 Pro Max STILL got flagged at an Apple Store Genius Bar Appointment

    Had a really bad experience at the Apple Store this morning. I always break my iPhones, I'm just really clumsy and rather pay AppleCare+ and repair/replacement fees than Otter Boxes. My iPhone 14 Pro Max's back screen is cracked all over. No biggie, I'll go to the Apple Store and have it...

    iPhone 5 or earlier Apple says don’t use iPhone after 7 years.

    iPhone Fire What surprises me here was Apple’s response to not use iPhones after 7 years. I know many people who use older phones, do they all risk fire? BTW - the phone was being charged with the original Apple charger.

    Is there a way to stop FaceTime from taking over during incoming calls?

    I like the feature of taking calls on my Mac. But what is driving me crazy is that FaceTime seems to immediately become the foreground app, stopping all inputs to other apps. For example: If I'm typing while a call is coming in my keystrokes result in warning sounds. Of course, when I'm just...
