Why link to an existing discussion on Hacker News? We want the discussion to happen here, not over there.

Apple cases aren't worth the top dollars. People should just get a Spigen case or any other case than Apple ones.

I have the normal iPhone 15 so can't test it, but according to people, low normal mode introduces a lot of lag.

It just feels weird that regular iPhones are the one to recommend right now.

I've been an iPhone user since 2017, so I've been out of the loop. Are battery issues due to misbehaving apps (like flashlight spyware apps) still a thing on Android?

sigh This option shouldn't be hidden in accessibility.

Does it reduce the frame rate to 60 HZ?

I wish there was an option to limit it to 60 Hz. You'd still have the benefits of variable refresh rates, but with lower battery consumption.

I'm glad I got the basic iPhone 15 to replace my old iPhone 8 Plus. I don't need all the bells and whistles of the pro line.

Apple definitely should have added a bigger battery to the Pro lineup.

Return it, it is really not worth the premium price. Get a much cheaper Spigen or any other case.

Lobbyists for the gas boiler industry are trying to delay the introduction of new government measures to speed up the take-up of heat pumps, a leaked document shows.

Yup. Saudi Arabia has launched Vision 2030 to diversify and open up the economy. But to achieve their goal, they need high oil revenues.

To conservatives, a real American is a white person with white eyes and blond hair. Anyone else is inferior.

This is why I hate the term "African-American". We don't call white people "European-Americans" while we call black people "African-Americans" as if they're not American enough.

It's sad.
