    iPhone 8/Plus Apple Battery Case for iPhone 8?

    hi all I remember Apple releasing a battery case for the iPhone 6 back in the day, the one with the hump and I hear you can use this case on the 6S and the 7 but was wondering if there would be any limitations I’m not aware of in using the case for the iPhone 8? I know the case wouldn’t work...

    iPhone 8/Plus Upgrade to Iphone 8 Product Red From Iphone SE?

    I have an SE and want to upgrade while having a compact device for one handed use, Im not sure if this rumored SE 2 will ever come out and the other rumors about the 5.8,6.1 and 6.5 inch devices don't appeal to me. Also is it worth getting an 8 in June when the new phone comes out in September...

    iPhone X Does turning Cellular Data off while on WiFi REALLY save battery life?

    Let's myth bust this. I've heard that the phone uses more power to maintain a wifi signal rather than a 3G signal. That probably explains why sometimes when I pick up the phone after not using it for an hour or two, the status bar reads "3G", and then shows the wifi logo after a second or two...

    I'm a bit of an audiophile who understands I've made a choice to give up sound quality from my expensive IEM's with 3.5mm jack and downgraded to wireless earbuds for my new iPhone X.

    Buy wireless charger or wait for AirPower?

    Is there any prediction as to when AirPower is being released? Should I buy from a third party or wait? If it’s more than 2 months away it’s too much. I’m tired of cables.

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