Wasn’t it a tv show on pbs ?

I havent updated to 11.2/11.2.1

No problems on the X right? I saw battery concerns but i think rhat was mainly for people with older phones

x......if you pronounce it "x" instead of 10....you can't afford it.

no problems on the x for me.

AZwildcats · Dec 17, 2017

Still on 11.1.1 in hopes of a jailbreak

Need some advice. Looking to upgrade from my IPhone 6 Plus to either an 8 Plus or an X. From what I read for my upgrade it's the standard $50 upgrade fee and the 8 is an extra $30 a month on my bill and the X is $35. So it's not really a price issue.

Mainly I'm looking at the form factor and difference in that kinda sphere. Not sure I like the no home button or how video gets obstructed in the X but if it's overwhelmingly better than the 8 I might as well do it

When did you get your 6? Shouldn't you be done paying on it?

Maybe 2 years ago

District of Columbia · Dec 17, 2017

Loving the X so far. Coming from the 6 plus it’s the perfect size IMO.

Any wallpaper recommendations?

Canadian Destroyer · Dec 17, 2017

Anyone else encounter bugs after 2 updates ago to 11.2 I believe

alchemist iq · Dec 17, 2017

Anyone got really good with portrait mode?

Tried shooting my street style photography with it and coudnt get bokeh on a full body fit (that crops well on IG). Is portrait mode really just for upclose shots/half body/portrait (portrait-esque duh)?

starfox070 · Dec 18, 2017

they really need a photo mode that's not ig that makes good ig photo size

slighted · Dec 18, 2017

^ I just use the Square photo size on camera. I think it's basically the IG size.

your pics always make me want to buy new shorts :lol:

don't think portrait mode will work well on full body. i haven't tried it yet but i have an app called halide that lets you tweak settings like focus and iso. might be able to do it that way. i think i'll try it on my son tonight.

DonRafa · Dec 18, 2017

yeah, portrait more doesn’t work well for shots like that. you have to be too close and most of the background is gone by that point

DadNboujee · Dec 18, 2017

I turned off “require face attention” and it can unlock with my sunglasses on.

Here is my setup for my AirPods

If I ever decide to get a pair of AirPods, that's probably how I'll set mine up.

Is anyone I-Phone 6S charging not working correctly since the updates.... I used to just plug my phone and it would instantly charge... not it gives me hell every time and charges slow AF....
