Y'all just out there in the winter with no gloves?

I can't be outside in 15 degree weather without gloves for an extended period of time

Surprised so many of yall havent heard or seen those gloves lol. Used to see them in random stores as well as Nike but never cared to buy them. No more winters for me now that I am in Cali, MI winters were as brutal as anywhere else.

That's wild. I have and pair of North Face e-tip gloves.  Works like a charm

The only glove we acknowledge

I guess chalk it up to me being from California, but I swear to you I've never heard of anyone really using those.

If it gets cold I just put my hands in my pockets or in my jacket pockets.. if I need to use my phone I just do it and put the phone back in my pocket once done.

Ain't no need to be scrolling through NT or anything else for extended periods of time when it's cold af outside and my hands start getting cold.

Just sounds corny af to say "smart gloves"

Its all about location honestly. 

Most people on NT live in the burbs and drive cars so why would you need gloves. For me I rarely drive a car so walking 3-5mi a day in sub freezing temperatures its only natural to have a glove on and it just so happen to be conductive. 

Its not like people go looking for said glove it just that the majority of gloves sold now have that feature.

These are my gloves/mitten. My homey laughed at me for having it.

2 weeks later he went and brought the same thing in a different color

Went to Best Buy this morning, and they had matte black 128 (what I wanted), told em I'd be back because I had other stuff to do first... went back, and sold.

Went to target, and they had in stock, but charging $50 more than anywhere else smh.

Thinking about ordering online.

How fast are these shipping from AT&T, Best Buy, or Apple?

If it's a plus you're gonna wait at least a few weeks

 

[s dubl]

I shoulda grabbed when I had the chance...

 

[crazy ebw]

Apple stores have been getting regular shipments. Check online if you have one near you.

Mine took exactly a month to come in after I ordered from VZW. It came a month earlier than expected though, wasnt supposed to have it until 11/23

 

[s dubl]

Closet Apple Stores near me are an hour away.

might just order from Apple.

 

[hoosier bad boy 11]

Can I use my T-mobile jump on demand through an apple store.

 

[yanky]

People in here still waiting for their iphones?

 

[alp]

Phone kinda takes a little while to charge though, my only gripe with the 7+

Nope


Man I regret upgrading my 6s. Besides the water resistance I don't see any huge updates on it. I've had it for a month now .

use an iPad charger if you have one, that 1 amp one they include in the box is a joke 

 

[s dubl]

Can charge your phone in about 1/2 the time if you put your phone on airplane mode. Only downside is you're basically turning off all service on the phone. Not a big deal if you're busy doing something else while it's charging.

is there a better charger I can buy?

yea I'm not a fan of essentially turning off my phone to charge unless I'm going to be away from it, and even then I miss a phone call

 

[crazy ebw]

Most 3rd party chargers are trash. Stick with the 12w Apple one.

 

[alp]

But the apple one is kinda slow. Not too horrible but not as fast as Samsungs, not even close

 

[jus3]

Can anyone recommend an adapter with a charge port and a headphone jack?

 

[veks]

 when charging turn on low power mode. I don't think a better charger will improve anything since the iphone dictates how much power to draw.

 

[yanky]

This is the charger I'm using. 5V/2.1A

Takes me about 2 hours for a full charge from 10% but I'm sure there isn't much current running through my wall. Haven't used the charger the phone came with to see if there's a difference.
