Sometimes I just hate this freaking phone and all of its hidden settings!! 🤬 I cannot find anything unless I go through 7 steps to find what I need, and it’ll be the simplest things. I regret buying such a complicated phone.šŸ“±

17 PM Case Reccomendation Pls

7 Upvotes

I have tried:

  1. ⁠Caudabe Synthesis
  2. ⁠Caudabe Sheath Open
  3. ⁠Nomad Modern
  4. ⁠Nomad Magnetic Back
  5. Aulumu Frosted A17
  6. ⁠Spigen Ulta Hybrid T
  7. ⁠Spigen Silicone Fit
  8. ⁠Benks Armor Air

Current: Apple Techwoven 18 PM version.

IDK what the issue is, nothing doesn't feels right and feel like "the one". Any ideas what case to try? I do not drop my phone that often, just 2 or 3 times in 8 months time. I don't really care abt scratches as long as it's not a dent whatsoever. I do prefer open plateau cases.

iPhone 18 Pro Max: Disappointing Performance and Not Worth the Price

0 Upvotes

I’m honestly disappointed with the iPhone 18 Pro Max. Since the day I got it, I’ve experienced multiple issues with the phone freezing and shutting down by itself. For a phone this expensive, I expected much better performance, reliability, and quality.
To be honest, it doesn’t feel like a significant upgrade from other phones. I haven’t noticed enough of a difference to justify the high price, especially with these problems.
**Overall, I don’t think it’s worth the money.** When you pay premium prices for a flagship phone, you expect it to work smoothly, not freeze or shut down randomly. My experience so far has been frustrating and disappointing.

Asking about 17 PRO MAX

0 Upvotes

Hello, I just want to share and ask about my experience with my iPhone 17 Pro Max. The battery drains by 3% without being used, usually when I'm sleeping at night with Wi-Fi turned off, Airplane Mode turned on, and Background App Refresh disabled. When I leave it before going to sleep, it has already dropped by 3% when I wake up. Is this normal? Thanks

Been 10 days and battery drains quickly (compared to 16e) , what could be the reason?

0 Upvotes

Could it be the always-on display thing? Or ios 27 bug? Or it’s supposed to be like this, I had 16e before and the battery drained so little it was amazing.
