I am wondering if anyone been in a similiar situation.

I got the S4 some years ago initially wore it but put it away in the shelf not long after, only recently I started wearing it again.

When put away Battery was at 94%, not sure of cycle count. I started wearing it again in the begining of august, mainly to track sleep. Today the battery is at 79% and at 309 cycles.

Considering Apple heavily advertises Watch to last 80% for 1000 cycles, i feel pretty scammed.

Could I have case about the relation of cycle count and battery capacity? Free replacement maybe?

Thanks everyone

I just got a 15 PM, coming from a normal 13 (which was great!)

I commute alot, and thought the larger screen might come in handy, but while alot of things are great, I can’t do the back swipe gesture one handed, which I didn’t even realise I used as much as I did!

Has anyone gone to a 15 plus and found that easier? It looks a bit slimmer which could help! I dont think I’ll miss the AoD either.

Im also thinking about going for the regular pro too, but my biggest surprise has been the speaker quality, anyone found its similar to the PM?

Also, I can’t believe people think this thing is light!

Hey there - I'm in Germany for at least another month and I broke my iPhone. It was dropped and now has a black screen and a few fun vertical lines.

I'm considering just buying a new phone from Apple Germany. Are there any problems or things I need to consider? What should I know?

My current phone has a physical SIM. I could consider getting the screen fixed but I did this once already in Germany and the screen constantly malfunctioned with the "ghost screen" effect. Which is another reason why I'm considering replacing it all together.

Why should I know? Thanks!

I have a late 2015 MacBook Pro and have been using it for about 7-8 years (mainly for web browsing and casual music production)

it still works fine as a computer but with some problems:

  • the speaker is broken, low end sounds are all distorted (which is my main problem)
  • battery life has gone very short (maybe 3 hours of continuous use)
  • the fan stopped working
  • some dead pixel starts to appear (which does not bother me at all)

I can sell it for about 140 USD, or repair it (I have no idea how much it costs )

And my concern is, will it last long after repair? the CPU and SSD all have their lifespan

In my everyday day life even though almost all the people I know are iPhone users none of them has an se except of me that I wanted it as a secondary device due to small size and easy to use with one hand design

If you are still having issues with battery draining then do this. Go to the watch app on iPhone. Then go to settings general and airplane mode. Turn off mirror phone and turn off wifi. Next turn on mirror phone and that should fix it. If it still doesn’t fix issue. Then after you turn off wifi leave mirror phone off and that should fix it.

Seriously, like i must see 20-30 AW per day minimum. I've never even encountered one ultra, ever. What do you think the percentages actually are? Why are the percentages so high here? Just surrounded here by AW aficionados or something? It's begun to feel surreal.

Wow I see Apple really dropped the ball with the new season premiere. I haven’t seen any marketing at all for it. I just happen to scroll my “what’s next” and saw it. I know there/was a strike going on, but this is one of their flagship shows that was also a hit with the public & critics.

Watch OS 10 is really a mixed bag... the new actions are unintuitive for a lot of people, but my biggest issue as an infograph watch face user, is that i can't click on the on the notification icon up top (the one who shows if you have an app open, like music app for example)... it is extremely difficult to click it... i have the calendar notification in the top left corner and the temperature complicatoin in the top right corner... it is clearly an issue related to the size of the interactive area of the complications, that interfere with this icon

I also have a lot issue interacting with text message, when i just want to respond with a smiley, you have to click the bottom left corner, and half the time it doesn't register...

This is really bothersome, and wish they do something about this asap

We have options like high volume,bass boost etc in spotify and Apple Music, do you think listening music at high volume can damage iphone speakers?

Has anyone noted significant battery drain in watch after 10.1.1 latest update. It was actually meant to conserve battery in older models but draining more battery in watch series 9

Hello, Is anyone else having a problem with their outlook mail account in the iOS native mail app? The preview is showing a bunch of html codes instead of the actual preview. Started months ago and it’s an eye sore to be honest. Does anyone had this issue and was able to get it fixed?

My sister saw that on her bf iPhone there were lots of Bluetooth devices (like ones he had connected to previously) she saw his exs AirPods and deleted them cos ya know. Anyway weeks later she saw the exs AirPods were back as like an option for him to connect to… even though my sister forgot it. I didn’t think that was possible if you forget a device it’s gone right ?

All around the Internet I see people complaining about how bright the iPhone Always On Display is. But I honestly prefer it because coupled with Live Activities I actually don’t need to open my phone to get the information I need. And for the amount of useful info I get, I think the battery usage is pretty impressive. What do you guys think?

I just upgraded to iPhone 15 pro and I’m camping in the bush and none of my portable battery chargers are working! This is a disaster. Is there anyway to make it so a portable charger can work? If not what’s the portable charger I can buy for iPhone 15 pro? I’m very inconvenienced by this. I ordered a portable MagSafe click on but it won’t come in time. Is there a portable charger I can buy that will actually work on iPhone 15 pro! Any help regardless of what will be heavily appreciated! I can’t run out of battery 🪫 in the bush I am very scared.

My media doesn’t seem to play or make sound at all, everything else works fine like texting, media doesn’t play nor songs, they seem to only work when my headphones are connected, is there a way to fix this?

My main reason for buying it would be the camera, but I've heard many reports that the camera quality is not as good as it used to be, and often shows to be blurry. Sometimes it's a software issue but also a hardware issue.

The problem is that if there is a problem, I would not be able to return it as I live in a country without official apple service.

Any advice would be great, thanks!
