    WHICH iPHONE to Get?(future planning)

    I have been a long time android user, however, I usually have had budget phones, less than $250. My parents have decided to let me get a new phone for when I go to college. They say they will pay only $500 so that means up to $600 not pass. I have been thinking about either the Galaxy S8 or...

    Display and Bezel Color

    Not intended to be a "what color is better post" is already know black bezels have more noticeable fingerprints and scratches while the white attracts dust and is a distraction. Now I'm mainly here to ask, Does anyone feel the colors on the display look better with one bezel vs the other?

    Still no headphone jack?

    OK Ok! I know what you thinking just by reading this tittle. Apple removed 3.5mm headphone jack from the iPhone last year, they believe wireless is the future and also perhaps to make more space for cramped components inside iPhone. Of course they are not in a rush to remove it from iPad or...

    iPhone 7 vs iPhone 8

    So the day has finally come that I have decided to upgrade my phone from a 4S to something new. Right now my two contenders are an iPhone 7 with 128 gigs of memory and an iPhone 8 with 64 gigs of memory. Without considering price, would the iPhone 8's new features be worth sacrificing 64 gigs...

    iPhone 8/Plus Anyone know the cost of repair for iPhone 8 (glass back) cost WITHOUT Applecare?

    I can't seem to find an answer for repair cost for the iPhone 8's back glass? I chipped it the other day. Trying to see if it's cheaper to get AppleCare ($129) and fix the back ($99), or just do a one time repair. All google shows is iPhone X, and AppleCare related screen repair costs.

    Does second camera in iPhone X allow for better low-light photos than in the 8?

    I'm on the fence between an iPhone 8 (non-plus) and an iPhone X. Biggest decision point is having the best camera. Don't care about the other features of the X. If I intend to mostly take zoomed-out/wide-angle shots in normal photo mode (not in portrait mode or with portrait lighting), would the...

    iPhone 8 and iPhone X: Power Differences?

    Other than the specs needed to support the front-facing camera tech and Face ID, is there any difference in power between the two? I am leaning towards getting the 8 because of the price difference, but if the 8 is already behind in specs, I would have to reconsider. Looking on Apple's website...

    Sigh. Having “Trouble”. My wife and I both got our iPhone 8 at the same time, same color, same capacity. Both are fully updated. My phone, however, has true tone enabled (with the option sitting below the brightness slider in settings). My wife was never prompted to enable during set-up, and...

    I checked, and didn’t see this posted yet. Casey isn’t exactly unbiased, which he acknowledges up front, but I still appreciate the comparison. I’m getting neither the Note nor the iPhone 8, as I’ll be getting the X, but this is a good look at how well both cameras (and the software running...
