    iPhone X can't run iOS 17, but 6th gen iPad can run iPadOS 17.

    So the A11 is apparently not strong enough for iOS according to Apple: (iPhone X has 3GB, A11) But the 6th gen iPad, an A10 with only 2GB Ram also gets iPadOS 17: Doesn't Make sense, if A10 iPad can do lock screen customizations, why couldn't the iPhone 7 do it? The same applies to the 8 and...

    Hi. Hope this is the correct forum. My iPhone X fell today. The display is (almost) dead (some green display upper right side still visisble). I can enter the password blindly, which I used to access the iPhone X via MacBook and make a backup. Haptics work as well. Basically it seems to be...

    iPhone 13 I’m thinking of upgrading from the X to 13 due to bad battery life, but I’m worried about that build quality won’t be the same.

    The battery life on my X is very disappointing. I’m often left with just 50% battery by the time I get to work. It gets very warm as well, so I’m thinking of upgrading to a 13. However, I’m worried about the build quality wont live up to my X. I absolutely love the stainless steel on my X. It’s...

    iOS 15 Alarm Bug on iPhone X after upgrading from iOS 11?

    Recently upgraded my iPhone X directly from iOS 11 to iOS 15 finally. It wasn't straightforward as I had to plug it into my PC to get it to install the update. Anyway, I had a daily alarm set @ 8 AM every weekday before the upgrade. It looks like the clock app is different on the new iOS. I...

    Other The old phone appreciation thread

    Still using and enjoying my 8 Plus. Estimated savings over purchasing an equivalent new iPhone every year: $6000 (including cases, accessories, etc.) Have a friend who is still using a flip phone. Every year he looks at the new iPhones but invests the money he would have spent on a new phone...

    Iphone X dead, Apple watch alive, saving data?

    Hi community! I have a problem that I'm hoping to find a solution for. My Iphone X screen stopped working (I suspect it got a hit some time ago). When I try to turn it off, I can feel it vibrating, when I charge it, it makes a sound and when my apple watch pages it it responds. But the screen is...

    iPhone X - circles/rings on screen

    We’ve suddenly noticed rings on the display of our iPhone X - about 4 or 5 at a time, they are about 2mm and shimmer when you move the phone around in an angle, like the rings are made of tiny liquid droplets. They disappear when rubbing the screen in that area and slowly build up again, not in...

    iPhone 12 Pro Max I couldn't find my iPhone (silent), had to ring it for 15 - 20 mins continuously and had to hear for the vibration, damaged vibration?

    This is only curiosity, but I tend to think of iPhones as being very fragile ..people complain about all sorts of issues, and im one of those people that REALLY baby their new iPhone for the first few months. Basically I had to search for my iPhone as I couldn't find it anywhere, after calling...

    iPhone 12 Pro Max Sweat while sleeping and iPhone 12

    This might be an exaggeration but lately I’m falling asleep and I do so by watching YouTube videos hence holding my iPhone very tightly. However I wake up in the middle of the night with my hands dripping wet and my iPhone covered in sweat, a lot. This of course isn’t the place to ask for...

    Will an edge to edge screen protector cover a bezel crack on an iPhone X?

    My iPhone X has a crack on the top right bezel (couple cracks concentrated in one area). I was wondering if an edge to edge screen protector that has black edges would cover up the crack in any way. Everything else works perfectly, but this is a cosmetic issue.

    iPhone 12 Pro Max iPhone and indoors humidity?

    I questioned this when I realised the condensation on the sides of the window in my room. I sleep in a very small room and it's winter here, so warm indoors and cold outdoors, and often when I wake up there is condensation on the sides of the only window in my room; after a quick search this is...

    Sound issues with used iPhone X

    I just bought a used iPhone X from Gazelle, "acceptable" condition. I am moving from a 6s Plus which I have owned for 6 years. I feel like something is off about the audio, but I haven't been keeping track of comparisons between each successive model release, and I can't rule out that I'm just...

    Looking at the attached file, 11 Pro on the left, iPhone X on the right. I am noticing that the portrait mode on my 11 Pro (recently purchased used, still under warranty) is not properly blurring the objects consistently. You can see the shot taken on the left (11 Pro) the box has much less...

    iPhone 12 A love letter to the iPhone 12 mini

    Apple got something really right with the iPhone 12 mini. Playing around with my Black mini for the last 24hrs has been a nostalgic experience, sending me 7 years back to the good ol' iPhone 5 days. At the same time, it makes a strong, completely unexpected argument for what the future of iPhone...
