APPLE THREAD | Apple Event Sept. 9th 2024 10a.m. PT. | iPhone 16

How long do you have to exchange your phone? I got my 6 on RD, and I held the 6+ for the first time today and it is actually pretty nice. Not huge like it was made out to be. It's probably too late to swap out, might have to wait for the 6+S or whatever they're gonna call it

If you bought it from Apple with activation, you had until 10/2 to return for an exchange. There was a girl behind me in line that started to cry when they pointed out she was a day late on her exchange when I bought my phone on 10/3.

I have an iPhone 6 and I'm having issues with the sensor that puts in in portrait and landcape mode automatically. I have to tap it or flip it to get it to switch. It happens randomly. Anyone having this issue?

Man I held a iphone 4s today for the first time in like 2 years. After having my 6+ for weeks it felt sooo tiny. Smaller than I remember and that phone was big to me at the time. Joint felt like a bb curve.

Put your phone on portrait lock when needed.

First hour in. Man this 6 is insanely fast. Like very snappy. Definitely a noticeable difference from my 5s

"Never go to zero

If you're going to be shelving any lithium-ion battery for a long time, try to leave it with at least 40 percent battery power to tide it over. Lithium-ion batteries don't hemorrhage power when their not in use, but they'll lose maybe five to ten percent of their charge each month.

And when lithium-ion batteries get too low—like, literally zero percent—they get seriously unstable, and dangerous to charge. To prevent explosion-type disasters when you go to charge one that's been sitting around for a month or two, lithium-ion batteries have built-in self-destruct circuits that will disable (read: destroy) the battery for good, if it reaches rock bottom. And sure, that'll save you from a face full of battery-acid, but it'll also leave you short one battery."

This post reminds of the people that scared others into believing you cant eat pop rocks with soda

The inevitable cant be stopped the battery will degrade

To mitigate it Ive found reducing the apps/functions that eat battery power the most and once a month drain to zero, then full charge to 100%, followed by 2 hard resets 

At the end of the day its consumable product that is easily replaceable ( smartphone users who have the option to throw in a new battery are laughing at us iphone users 

)

you can replace the battery..you just gotta do the labor or pay someone else to do it lol. Imagine iPhone's had removable batteries as easy as other phones. That would be life changing

I replaced the battery on my touch but I had to solder it... not sure how the phone is constructed but it would be worth the fee to pay someone if you dont know what your doing

removable battery would be a game changer indeed

I dont think you can remove the battery on any apple products anymore 

 

Since were talking about battery anyone have any experience with the Mophie Juice Pack line??? 

 

[s dubl]

There's YouTube vids on how to change the battery on iPhones... Doesn't look that difficult, but with my luck Id **** something up, so I don't bother.

I've heard good things about the mophies from some peeps I know, but customer reviews kinda make me hesitant to mess with em.

 

[a-friend]

Mophie's are life. Straight up needed and you never know when.

I'd cosign a mophie all day, case and charger in one if you keep it on the phone, I keep it in my pack not on my phone, always by my side though

 

[grimeyy]

Got my 6 on Sept 21st. How likely is it that Apple will let me exchange for a 6+ now that Im well over the 14 days exchange/refund period?

Phone has no flaws. Depends on the employee?

 

[chennylou]

Anybody copped the product red leather apple case? Did it start noticeably change colors?

Lmao I would sell now while the market is still semi-up and just pay the extra to cop the 6+

 

[johnnyredstorm]
