Apple

Is there any reported bug or condition after updating to the latest OS where the low power mode alert keeps popping up when an Ultra hits 50%. Mine has been doing this since the last update. Battery health is 98% so does not seem to have a battery issue. I dismiss the alert and still get another day at least before I have to charge. I usually charge around 10-20%.

Not sure what else to do or check beyond going to an Apple store.

(Left is actual photo, right is viewfinder). I notice that in the selfie viewfinder that the quality is usually brighter, less sharp, and overall warmer photos. But when I actually snap the photo, it is usually darker with higher sharpness which I always prefer less to the viewfinder. Is there a way to fix this? I feel like I’ve gone through all of the iPhone camera settings without a fix.

Hi, I have an esim which i can get text messages through but not getting text messages through on my physical sim. Apple support being absolutely useless and not helping at all. Anyone know what to do?

I know a lot of people wish they had my remote but I have the opposite issue. When I press the mic button, nothing happens. Doesn’t activate Siri, no launching search, nothing. I’ve tried to reset and re-pair the remote as well as reset the Apple TV 4K itself with no luck. Any ideas on how to get it working?

Hi all! Has anyone seen comparisons on the 14 vs. 18 GPU cores on the new M3 Pro 14" Pro? Me girlfriend is debating between 512 --> 1TB vs. upgrading the GPU (wants to game a bit)...

I can't easily find anything online because it's impossible to search for "14" Pro M3 Pro" and get any reasonable results, lol

Hi everyone, I would like to know if you have experience of active water activities with Nomad sport band. Are they reliable under water ? I read a lot of bad feedbacks about people loosing their watches underwater with Apple sport band and I would like to know if Nomads are more reliable. Thanks !

I have an iPhone 15 Pro Max. For the last 8+ years, I’ve used sparkly screen protectors for my phones. Bought one before the phone arrived and used that since the beginning but I drop my phone often and each time, there were cracks in the screen protector. So I decided to go with a tempered glass protector instead, for added protection (also, could no longer find my size in the sparkly on Amazon).

Over the last several days I have gone through three different screen protectors and two different cases because each time I put my case back on after installing the screen protector, it creates bubbles. The screen protectors were literally on perfectly. I usually buy cheap, cute cases but I even splurged and bought a pricier one and it’s still bubbling. With the case off, it’s perfect.

I like pink so the protectors I bought after the sparkly failed me were pink/mirror tempered glass protectors. I love it, even more than the sparkles, but the giant bubble on the top is driving me crazy!

Suggestions for screen protectors and cases that won’t bubble like this/that are compatible with one another??

Just got my iPhone 15 PM in White. Looking for some inspiration on what case I should be getting. I was thinking about a clear case but I’m happy to see what you guys use

Going to be getting the Series 9 45mm within the next week can't decide on (Midnight or Silver) My Series 3 that I've had since 2019 was Space Grey the thing I like about the midnight is the bezels disappear but the silver is really nice too any pros and cos to either

Hi there I am trying to buy a new iPhone and I am conflicted between these two. The quality of the camera is a huge priority for me, if I buy the 13pm it will probably be on Amazon refurbished.

Is the 14pm a big upgrade from the 13pm?

Also I could be convinced just to buy the 15pm but I’d rather save money and go with an older version

Coming from an iphone 7, Xs and Xs max. It is so perfect.

I’m looking to upgrade from a Galaxy Z Flip 4 because of unexplained chips in the screen.

The 14+ looks good because I like a big battery, and 60Hz is something I’ll adjust to. I’m thinking to only issue will be using lightning connectors 2+ years from now.

What do y’all think?

So I own a second gen 4K Apple TV had it for about 2 years or so.

And recently over the last few weeks I have noticed while watching content no matter the app that I'm using from the Apple TV that during playback the content momentarily turns to like a black screen as I'm already watching the content.

This issue is never happened before. I'm thinking that maybe it is due to the firmware that got updated?

I have restarted the Apple TV I have unplugged it I have unplugged all of my components through the HDMI I have unplugged all my components from the wall I have changed the HDMI cables All of the HDMI cables are 2.1 I have changed the inputs but I still get this black screen ever so often.

I know it is not my TV or my soundbar as typically if there was an issue with that the TV would show me no input found or the sound bar the audio would change on the soundbar and I'm able to get a good idea if it is one of those components acting up. But I have noticed that it's only through the Apple TV and it's not as if the content that I'm watching stop so like the constant is still there but the screen turns to black as we're watching.

Yes I do have Earc turned on, Yes I do have HDMI 2.1 cables, Yes I do have match screen content and frame rate turned on, no there is nothing wrong with my internet.

Has anyone experienced this issue lately?

Looking for an AW for a child that is too young for a phone but is in a lot of extra curricular activities so it would be nice to have the emergency call capability of a cellular watch. Ideally the SE would work, but the question I have is does the SE in Cellular have sufficient battery life? Or should I go with an 8 or 9?

I want to buy an Apple TV 4K but since Black Friday is around should I wait or get it now for $149.99?

Hi all, thanks in advance for any help. I’m looking to get a MacBook primarily for work but will want to use it for light recreational use too.

I believe in future proofing as I don’t want to but another device any time soon. I also like the idea of being able to carry it.

This seems like a good deal. It’s between this or the new MacBook pro m3 entry level 14” with 8gb of memory.

Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks

I had black iPhone XS Max 256go for 5 years that I bought 1000€ and I've managed to sell it 265€ last week.

I m looking for iPhone 15 Pro Max 256gb and I find nice deal: guy is selling iphone 15 pro max blue titanium 256gb for 1400€ on internet. I've managed to reduce price at 1100€ because there is small scratch on the side of the phone. So instead of paying 1479€ I would buy it for 836€ (1100€ - 265€ from xs max).

Guy bought phone on 4th october and used it for 2/3 weeks. He is selling it because he prefers to go back to Android.

I am still hestitating because of the scratch but everyone telling me it is a nice offer because once the case is on it you don't see anything.

What do you think ? Would you buy it ?

If i get a metal strap and put it on my apple watch then will it be comfortable for me to keep it on when i go to sleep ?

This is going to sound ridiculous but I have an Iphone 11 that I love, has great battery life and I love the rounded shape of it and..

I ordered the 15 pro (iphone 11 camera is not good enough now) which I know is a more blocky shape but less than the recent blocky iphones and I ordered the Apple Silicone case and it's just a rectangular block and quite heavy. I was wondering if there were more rounded cases available? I might not keep this phone just because of the shape. And the weight with case on was more than I expected, it should be lighter than the 11 (non pro) with a case.

I gotta ip14pm and I know myself to take care of my stuff so now, i lowkey wanted to try and enjoy my precious device by using it naked. Just a screen protector (ESR armourite), ESR lens protectors and magsafe ring grip. I guess my only worry is the stainless sides for scratches but what about you guys? Hows are yours holding up?

Thanks!

I can’t get scores to show up on my Dynamic Island. Is it through news or Apple TV? Still limited to specific sports? I know I can get other apps like sports alerts but if the apps I already have are supposed to work I’d rather have them work than get another app
