      Where is the reverse wireless charging?

        BlahBlah, 16 Nov 2022Well, I agree with you in one thing. This place is a battle... moreI can see that you're a good person, unfortunately i was nice here in the beginning which costed me a lot. Whenever i tried to share my opinion in a nice way, i got 250x harder replies & rude ones. I simply raised my walls and i won't let anyone making me feel bad ever again, especially on internet.
        If a person doesn't deserve your kindness, don't give them one.

This place is a battlefield between so call elitist (who are always right even when they're not) and casual users. Both are using everything they got against others to beat them in a debate. In my opinion, as a observer of human behavior that's because of their ego, but I can't be sure. I'm just a casual user talking from my experience and knowledge. When I'm talking to someone I'm trying to be as respectfull as I can, because even if I do have problems withy ego, I know I wont solve it if I keep disrespecting other commentators. We should exchange opinions peacfully and r

            I’m still not going to use it, mainly as I have always viewed ‘always on’ as pointless, if you will excuse the pun.

            For those that do use it though this is good news, and really it should have had these options right from the start.

              Yeah but nothing new only for the new iPhone 14's. Just release it with new features like custom area in settings, new widgets for Home Screen, or tool that can change your Home Screen how you want it to be like not just for the newer iPhones. And release AoD lite on iPhone 13 Pro Max.

                    [deleted post]Lose an argument ? I'm not even trying to win. AOD on iPhone is way less customisable than others. Your apple already lost here

                        Battery life reports for 16.2? Because iOS16 butchered battery life like iOS15 did to my SE 1. At this point, I don't even care anymore. I have so many phones and other gadgets, I could care less if updates ruin my battery life. I'll use a different phone if it happens.

                        I do miss headphone jack. I still use my SE 1 as an iPod. I really can't stand AirPods and having to recharge them every few hours with that beeping sound like it's getting disconnected. I can't control the volume using AirPods. And now Apple is making Americans switch to e-sim only. SMH.

                        Phones in terms of overall features peaked between 2007-2016. We still had headphone jack, removable battery, expandable storage, FM radio, IR blaster, and chargers in boxes during those times. Thinking of going retro by getting phones circa 2013-2016 that still had a headphone jack and microSD slot.

                        HTC One M8
                        LG G3
                        Samsung Galaxy S5
                        Sony Xperia Z3 or Z3 Compact
                        Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact

                        LG G4 and V10 had bootloops. Note 4 had eMMC problems. One M7 had no microSD slot (at least my variant) and purple photos in low light. I really do miss the jack and have 64 and 128 GB microSD cards just lying around.

                        I still have my LG G5 but my iPhone headphones doesn't fit it or my LG V20 I sold 3.5 years ago. And my G5's battery is completely dead and I don't want to buy another one. It's also a little too big but it is generally comfortable being rounded.

                        I can't believe circa 2014-2016 is now the good ol' days of phones. I despise Apple for ruining the industry.

                            Has the multitouch issue been fixed yet? Still on iOS 15.

They are now just bringing option to do it without wallpaper and everyone is whining about "muh innovation". Android users only of course.
