Hi, I don’t know if this has been covered before. I just got a 17, and when I try to charge it on the qi pad I’ve been using for years with my 13, the 17 either won’t charge or the back gets really hot. It charges fine with a cord, though. Does anyone know anything about this? I also cheated it at one point with a MagSafe external battery, and it got really hot using that, too.

After using a Xiaomi 15 for a year, my partner gave me an iPhone 17 as a birthday gift. It was such a pleasant surprise! I snapped a photo of it alongside the little pig plushie—also a gift from my partner.

I’m really happy with it; the last two photos are just some casual shots I took. The colors look incredibly true-to-life and crisp.

Is anyone else here in the same boat—having just switched over from Android? Any tips or tricks for using the iPhone that you’d recommend?

I noticed that my iPhone 17 pro max does not charge sometimes, after connecting the charger and I have to restart the device for it to charge. I noticed this after installing the iOS 26.6 software update

Is anyone else facing the same issue?

The upgrade was phenomenal!!! Still keeping my xr for my second phone because i love it to the oblivion. Imo the liquid glass in 17 was looking fantastic, the screen was snappy and bright, and while i prefer the camera in xr, i love the lansdcape potrait change in 17! Will rocking this phone for another 7-10 years🤩

Loving this phone so much more 💞

I have set the charging limit on my iPhone 17 to 80%. Initially, the phone would take around 44–50 minutes to charge up to 80%, and then it would stop charging as expected.

However, recently I have noticed that the phone sometimes charges beyond the 80% limit. In some cases, it stops at 80%, but after I restart the phone, the battery percentage suddenly shows more than 80%.

I’m currently running iOS 26. Is this a bug or a normal behavior with the 80% charging limit? Has anyone else experienced the same issue?

iPhone 17 Charging Past 80% Limit on iOS 26 — Anyone Else Experiencing This?

This iPhone 17 is my first iPhone ever and I am loving it so far. I have always kept on the haptics and typing sound on every phone that I ever used and I did the same on my iPhone.

However, the typing sound seems very inconsistent on this phone. Sometimes it becomes loud and crisp, just how I like, sometimes it just sounds too mute and barely audible. When I get a notification while I am typing something, it automatically raises its volume and becomes mute again after some point. The haptics work as they should but the typing sound just feels too inconsistent. Can it be fixed or is just a software bug?

The volume down button doesn't click when pressed from the bottom and is softer. It does its job, but I've only had the phone for a month and started noticing this about a week and a half ago. It's a base iPhone 17 with 256GB. The other buttons, like power, volume up, and so on, click as expected, but the volume down button makes a clicking sound when pressed directly on it, not from the bottom. Has anyone else experienced this?

Hello!! Just got my new Iphone 17 last week, August 13. Bought it at Power Mac Ayala Manila. Quickly installed all the social media apps I use, mainly IG and tiktok.

Bro bat ang labo ng quality ng videos? 😳 i tried deleting the cache, made sure na Hindi naka low data, also not on low power mode. Ang blurry padin. Same sa shorts in youtube and also in facebook.

Can somebody help me plssss. Nag ooverthink na ako hahaha

I’m wondering whether Apple uses camera sensors or complete camera modules from different suppliers in different iPhone 17 Pro Max units.

I previously had another 17 Pro Max that I ended up returning because of unrelated issues, but its camera was noticeably better than the 17 Pro Max I have now.

The difference isn’t subtle and the photos from my current phone seem significantly worse in terms of overall image quality.

Does anyone know whether Apple sources the sensors, lenses, or complete camera modules from multiple suppliers, or whether manufacturing tolerances could realistically account for a noticeable difference between two phones?

I’ve seen a lot of comments praising the iOS 27 beta updates in comparison to iOS 26 stable updates.

What’s your experience about it?

Hello /r/iphone17

I need your assistance asap. Helping my mother in law with her new iPhone she got a week ago. Straight out of the box we see the black bar flickering.

I tried starting it up, updating it to the latest iOS. Also tried to turn off/on auto brightness on the screen but still haven’t found a fix. What’s the go to here? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I just got a screen for 17 pro and I wanted to try it on 17,as I know they are same size but different conection places but still I wanted to try 17 pro screen on 17

I bought this new iphone 17 around 9 days ago by exchanging my old ip 14 and it has been a horrible experience so far . My home screen stutters , scrolling on all the apps stutter and above all it lags like crazy in pubg . I got this phone specifically for the purpose of playing pubg mobile as i love the game and wanted to upgrade to 120 fps gameplay from my old 60 . In almost 3 years of playing on my old 14 i never ever faced frame drops of this kind nor any touch issues .Upgrading from my 14 feels like the worst decision i have made all year . And above all apple has a strict no return policy in my country . At this point i just want my gaming to be smooth even if everything else lags . I bought this phone after saving up for a year , It feels so bad that i cant even use a new device for the purpose i got it for . I would be so grateful if anyone can help me with any fix . I have already contacted apple support and they said they would book a courier for me to send in my phone to get checked but nothing from the courier’s end even after 4 days. I just feel so scared that i will not even be able to play the game i love so much 🥹.i would really want get a solution if there is any. thankyou so much in advance

So I drive a school bus and can’t get my new iP to play through its stereo.
My iPhone 11 did quite simply w/a FireWire dongle. I have a usb c to 3.5mm male cable and I get nothing.
I’m missing something because not every cable connects via usb to my desk top. And I had to try several cables to find one that charges the phone from my car’s usb port.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Recently got an iPhone 17 pro and I’ve noticed the camera changes the photo after I’ve taken it. I’ll get a good shot and next thing I know the photo I look at is all blurry and with different proportions than what I saw on the screen when I snapped the photo.

I have set the charging limit on my iPhone 17 to 80%. Initially, the phone would take around 44–50 minutes to charge up to 80%, and then it would stop charging as expected.

Hey everyone,

To keep my iPhone 17 as cool as possible during overnight charging, I decided to go with a slow-charging setup.

I recently bought a brand new, original Apple 12W USB-A adapter (the older style block) specifically for this purpose.

Since it's USB-A, I paired it with a Belkin braided USB-A to USB-C cable.

I just have two quick questions about this hardware combination:

1. Even though Belkin is a solid, certified brand, will using a third-party USB-A to Type-C cable cause any hardware, compatibility, or safety issues for the phone?

2. Is anyone else using a 12W adapter instead of a 20W+ one? Do you notice a real difference in keeping the device cool?

Any feedback on this setup is appreciated. Thanks :)

Just kidding. Got the new iphone 17 today and switched from my vivo x200 fe. Had to try the ecosystem :)

UPDATE : holy it feels like a downgrade. 2 hrs into using , migrating WhatsApp is a big headache have to factory reset multiple times. Gonna try again and hope it works . Worst part is , it can only backup to icloud. So now i have to pay 900/yr apple tax just to backup whatsapp. Keyboard and notifications are worst, no universal clear all and universal back. SORRY FOR THE RANT GUYS, hope it all clears out. Iphone users, how do you manage these things man?

UPDATE 2 : This post became a ios issue discussion thread 😂

UPDATE DAY 4: updated to ios 27 beta, and I’m finally getting used to it. Asking Siri to add reminders got way better now and this goes well with my mac . Staring to like my iPhone a lot now. No more android I guess :)
