Itās safe, but every item you attach, lowers the output. I have this and 2 of the single USB-Cās. Work great.
Got a tip for us?

Oh yes! The 6 plus was huge! I loved it. Never looked back.
Yes, I too used to buy the s versions every other year for the reasons you list. But today's iPhones are not built around that tick-tock kind of thinking.
I may have to try AfterShip. I used to rely on the Deliveries app, but it doesn't track UPS deliveries anymore.
Nothing wrong with starting a discussion of the actual science of how the things we love are (and aren't) made!
After adding and removing addresses from my personal My Choice and My Choice for Business accounts I got tracking to show up!!! Just had to keep playing with it till it showed!!! Looks like I am in Wave 1 right?
We exchange shipments in my neighborhood often. Apparently sometimes house numbers are just decoratiions. š And it's not only UPSDude Iām so pissed stupid UPS delivered my case to the wrong apartment and I just tried to find it and canāt.
this is the first time this has happened at this new place. Iām so annoyed.
While waiting for the phone, decided to order a Spigen case and screen protector 
Yep! You are in wave 1!
how can that be with a port change to usb c. Not that I donāt like S model, but in the past it was associated with a new model.
so if people are remembering ports on the iPhone, the 30 pin was first of course, the iPhone 5 brought us the lightning port, and iPhone 15 with usbc. No port then sure, iPhone 14S

Oh youāre lucky. My husband was trying to set a timer while grilling burgers on Friday and Siri started babbling in a panic about foreskins!
He retorted that he wasnāt talking about that kind of meat!š¤£š
Agreed. To be honest I haven't read your latest post, but that's due to the fact I am chilling on the hamac and will likely do so tomorrow.
Other than that, facts and science drive us.
Decoded- Congratulations! Part of Wave 1. Let's gooooo! āļøāļø
Yeah Deliveries is pretty much dead now. I usually use Parcel, except for Apple launches.
Ok, I'm getting involved with football, so I'm falling behind. š¤£ I have to respond to this because I'm right there, also.
I will always have a screen protector because a few years ago and a few models ago, I stepped off a curb wrong at work and I was holding my phone in my hand. When I went down, my phone went face down hard into the concrete. It shattered the screen protector, but the phone was fine. So I, also, will never go without a screen protector for any crazy things like that happening. 
Good grief, letās hope not!
Getting ligher each year
Above is an excellent post. Lots of great information and details. Seems to know what he's talking about. Good job! šš» š«”The whole point of certain coatings (beyond protection or feel, so in the context of "color") is to alter the light reflected or absorbed by a material. Your assertion that because, somehow, there maybe some Titanium Dioxide (which would imply that it's been sufficiently exposed to O2 and allowed to, you know, oxidize) somehow "overrides" or "overpowers" or whatever you'd characterize it from underneath a coating designed and engineered precisely to permit or not allow such wavelengths to absorb/reflect as the coating on top is exactly the opposite of the billions of dollars a year coatings industry that has successfully (for decades) produced coatings that alter the appearance of titanium (and additionally, slow its oxidation to a near standstill over the life of the product).
There is no stronger argument here than reality: they are selling black and blue iPhones, so, clearly, there is a process and a coating (or set of coatings) being used to mask whatever amount of oxidized titanium maybe there as a substrate.
That is, after all, what the prefix "sub" means: under.
Glad you bring up print media, actually! How, in the world, then is not everything printed completely white when printed on white paper (which was generally bleached to get it there, anyway)?
Because, well, ink/dye/pigments are a thing. Like you said, it's no different.
Over time, through tons of wear, perhaps all coatings will wear off, then the titanium will oxidize over time and create a white finish, is this what you are suggesting? This is the *only* way that anything you've asserted is remotely true, which of course, now is a durability discussion of coatings.
See the post above: it plainly shows the images of IP14 and IP15 "whites". The IP15 is much more cream colored, because, just like the blue and black coatings, it has been purposely designed to perform that way in terms of spectrum absorbed/reflected. Apple likely will not release the exact formula ever, but it doesn't require disclosure to know that it's not 100% Titanium Dioxide.
Your car is likely made of a mix of metal, plastics, and bondo....yet, somehow, they manage to produce them in all sorts of colors...not a coincidence or anything functionally different.
Oh yeah, the process of oxidation of pure (e.g. uncoated) Titanium -> Titanium Dioxide, in a regular environment (read: not the 1200 degree autoclaves used to accelerate this process under pressure) is on the scale of *geologic time* to form even a mild white color, that, actually, itself is easily removed by wear, too. So, maybe you are right in about 10 million years, all our iPhones will be pure white by the process you describe (but, unfortunately, they will now also be incredibly brittle, because, well oxidation....)
When I think of Nat Titanium. This is what I'm getting..

15 made too many changes to be S. USB-C, Pro chip, action button, frame change. Smaller changes like 4k60, 5x zoom.
So we know the current whereabouts for the 15 Pro/Pro Max. Has anybody with a 15/15 Plus posted tracking information yet? Just curious if it has been confirmed where those are shipping from. It would be fun to track from a new location!
While waiting for the phone, decided to order a Spigen case and screen protector
Ha. I ordered a new Anker charger and a couple of cases to replace the ones Iām sending back.
Going out now for the usual Sunday errands to get the things I actually need to purchase. š
That makes me sad. Deliveries was a pretty awesome app.
Does it still charge the iPhone fast though? like what watts. Even though the other USB-C is also use?
I'm checking UPS. Apple won't change until Thursday even though the phone is moving.
