Re: What phone do you have?

(Anonymous) 2023-06-07 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
I have an iPhone. Mine currently is the 11 Pro, which was the middle of the road option for that release (14 is the current Gen, and 15 should be out around Septemberish I believe).

I have a long history of using Apple products so the iPhone just makes sense for me. I did try switching to Android about five years ago and hated it. Features were hidden in a way I couldn’t find them and the search function for finding them was hit or miss. It’s rare I can’t find something on iPhone and the search function always turns it up when that happens.

I love the cameras on iPhones! The three lens cameras take phenomenal photos! When I switched to Android, I bought a phone that, on paper, had a superior camera to any on iPhone at the time. But all of my photos looked like ass. There’s something about the iPhone camera software that really sets the pictures apart.

Another good feature for me is the available extras; I have Apple Fitness and an Apple Watch and I couldn’t live without them. Apple Fitness is my total workout other than walking (I can’t run). Combined with the watch, I can see some cool stuff like how I’m doing on a workout compared to others who have done it before me. Am I hitting my cardio target, stuff like that.

And I love the Watch! I don’t have the cellular one, just the entry level one and it’s awesome. I can read texts while I’m doing the dishes, tell Siri to set timers (I do that with the phone a lot, too), add reminders and edit my calendar…it’s just really the right features for me. Plus I love tracking my physical activity, seeing the weather at a glance on the same screen as the clock face, and knowing what time it is in the time zone where most of my friends live.

One last accessory I can’t live without now that I’ve had it is the Air Tags. I set things down and forget where CONSTANTLY. I’m working really hard on improving and I am doing better but some items frequently fall victim and it’s great being able to play a sound to follow so I can grab them.

But the feature I use most on iPhone is Siri, specifically “Hey Siri, where are you?” I have it set so Siri responses are always spoken so when I ask, he says, “I’m over here” and I can find him lol

I also had a substantial iTunes library before iphones even existed which plays a part in my continued ownership. I don’t stream music, I really just listen to the same songs/albums/artists all the time with little change so not having to pay more money for rights to listen to all that stuff yet again is nice. I’ve paid the artists many times for those albums and songs on record, then cassette, then cd, and then iTunes.

My phone is four years old and can get pretty slow sometimes. I would replace it this second but the latest iPhone still uses their proprietary lightning charging. The next model will have USB-C so I’m holding out for that.

But if none of that is right for you, definitely look into Android phones. I’ve heard good things about the (latest?) Google phone in particular.
