Are you going to order the new iPhone 15?

Last few years iOS will do an update when it detects the backup isn’t in parity with the destination phone. You don’t have to go through all this anymore.

Can confirm. A few days ago, I did a device to device transfer from my 14 Pro running the 17 RC to a new iPhone SE running 16.x, the first thing it did was prompt for a software update before going any further. Once the software update was installed the data was transferred and I was in business. This iPhone SE 3 is killing me. My 15 Pro can’t come fast enough.
 
The only ounce of information they provided is that the package is in china as of 09/16 and they even see the tracking number too which is stupid
Might need to establish some sort of
affinity with them.

When they tell you their name, act like that name has a special significance to you. You named your child that name. Whatever works.

Tell them this shipment is important to that particular person in your life.

Get them to like you and maybe you’ll get lucky and they’ll help you out.
 
That's an excellent post. Well said! We need more people like you! Let's goooooo.

Where's your iPhone at?
Somewhere in here, I think.

I want to be just like you. I'm starting to become your fan. 😀🥹
I dunno what you mean. You're a beaming ray of sunshine in the forums.

Or you could go the Trump route and say things like “You’ve got a beautiful voice. The sweetest voice I’ve ever heard. With a voice like that you must be an angel. Could you be an angel for me and help me get my complete tracking number? I only have the last four digits of the tracking number. Someone dropped the ball but you’re not going to drop the ball. I can rely on you to give me the full tracking number. I know you can help me with that. You want to help me with that. Because you’re an angel and angels would help me like that.”

iPhone 15 Pro Max or iPhone (2007) camera?

Note: The whole camera is smaller than the lidar and the flash on the iPhone 15 Pro Max.
Digital camera sensors were small and expensive back then, and over time with the huge demand costs fell and larger sensors were demanded by Apple and other companies and produced by Sony in response.
 
Just so you know... For those with AppleCare+

AppleCare+ with Theft and Loss coverage requires customers to have Find My enabled on the device at the time it’s lost or stolen. This new feature also applies to existing AppleCare+ with Theft and Loss customers at no additional charge.

This is why I get AC+ with Theft and Loss!!! Works for me!
 
Flight Tracking Update - 9:30PM CDT

Our plane is over Alaska and will be starting its descent into Anchorage soon. Wheels down estimated at 7:08PM AKDT. We are planning for a fuel stop and crew swap.

Our next flight will be Anchorage to Seoul. This should be on the same aircraft. It has an estimated block out time of 8:43PM AKDT. This may be pushed slightly later to turn the aircraft around in Anchorage. It is scheduled to arrive in Seoul at 10:06PM KST (translates to 8:06AM CDT).

I wouldn't worry over these flights too much. The next leg to Zhengzhou should depart around 12:30AM KST (10:30AM CDT). We probably won't get a flightplan on this flight, so look for it in the morning on FlightRadar24. That flight to Zhengzhou should arrive around 12:15PM CDT. Then the real fun begins. Expect loading to occur and scans to start around the 1-4PM CDT range. This next flight will likely be to Seoul. I'd expect that to depart around 3-4PM CDT.

Expect an update tomorrow morning at some point. Have a good night!
As correctly speculated by @FlightLevel310 UPS176 is en route to Seoul, Korea. 🇰🇷

This is the plane to keep track of for 9/16 scans & Possibly 9/17.

I remain cautiously optimistic! Hope for the best, prepare for the worst!


I do this with almost everything. I don't do it in a negative sense. But it allows me to enjoy life more. I think people put way too many expectations on things and are always suffering because of it. Both good and bad things will happen in life. And they will happen regardless of whether we react positively or negatively to them. Not everything can be dealt with positive emotions, but that's generally reserved for things that actually matter in life ... such as friends, family, and relationships. Everything else is secondary. We can always choose to react better to things.
My mother had this quote in a frame:
Blessed are those who expect nothing for they shall not be disappointed.

It's something when the major selling point of a phone is the camera :). I think there actually was a tidbit about a call feature this time, though
 
I'm holding off on the AW to see what the 10 year anniversary brings. Ha, only 3 cases? I have 7 sitting here, but 2 are going back for sure. The change to USB-C is a good excuse for me to upgrade my cables and chargers all around. My car has USB-C and a useless wireless charging pad and I'm starting to travel more again. All that to say, I can't talk you out of it since I'm doing damage too. That cube is perfectly compact, perfect for overnight desk charging, and its 15% off right now.
I’ll still get the 10th anniversary watch also if it’s something special.
 
It’s almost time!

What accessories have you already received for your new phone while you wait for it to be delivered?

I just got the clay Apple silicone case. Love. And also a 10ft usb c to usb c cable so I can charge while sitting on the couch. Hbu?!

I’m planning to get the Cypress silicone case.

But I’m also curious about the finewoven. Feeling like it gets a bit too much hate before the actual tests :)) dunno. I like how the Taupe looks.

Cables I already have the ones from MacBook everywhere around the house 😂

I’ll get an external SSD, Samsung T7 or something similar.
