iPhone 15 Upgrade - Rampy - 11-03-2023
Finally bit the bullet and upgraded to a new iPhone and Woza…….
Only problem was I had no idea Apple did away with the USB-A/Lightning charger and a new phone does not come with a adapter cube thing or a usb a cable end 🤬🤬
Had no way to charge the phone with this newfangled charging bullshit so had to run out and spend $50 to get new adapters and cables
Oh and wife has a old iPhone 12 so now we have to have 2 different sets everywhere 🤮🤮
Can’t really tell much difference between my old phone and this sparkling new one but we shall see……..

The camera shots of your bloody appendages will have greater resolution 🤣

I have an old Motorola android phone that works fine and does everything I need it to do. I think I paid 50-75 bucks for it about 10 years ago.

I have a 14 Pro (upgraded an iPhone 7), the camera is amazing, 48 Mega Pixel! It also does 3D imaging!

It’s a pocket computer, I pay bills, buy crap, text, surf the web, order my va meds & even talk on the phone on the cellular device 😱😱
We were out of cell coverage for a couple hours, went to a great steakhouse for supper that’s off the grid. Ran across a nasty car/semi crash that required extraction & I was able to call 911 and get fire/ambulance services
with my health issues it’s a cheap insurance policy that’s already paid for itself 🤷♂️

Have not done much exploring yet, did not know you can do 3D pictures. Really need to sit down and figure this thing out. I’m starting to like the MagSafe magnetic charging system thing Vs having to plug in
wireless car play is also interesting as well as very frustrating

I made the big switch from Android to iPhone last winter and it had a learning curve, but I have zero desire to jump back to Android after getting used to things. I didn't go for the then-top tier iPhone 14, I went older with a 13, and decided to give small screens a try (having been primarily a Galaxy Note user since the infamous Note 7) - I really dig having a more pocketable phone again. It was one baby step toward simplifying things. I have a long way to go but the only complaint I have at all about the iPhone 13 Mini is the camera sucks. Digital zoom is limited to 5X on the rear (main) camera, and no zoom on the front (selfie) camera. But easing into iCloud service has been painless, and I've found myself using image hosting sites a lot less as backups, because of the automatic synch.
I'm sure they'll be on the 16 or 17 (or ditch the progressive numbering systems and go with some marketing gimmicy name like "X" or "I" or "Infinite" or some other bullshat) by the time I'm ready to ditch the 13.

I switched from Android to iPhone a few years ago but I miss Android! I used to like using different launchers and tons of adjustment and tweaking where as, iPhone is pretty much is what it is. I have a 13Pro Max now but it will be time to upgrade soon and I haven't decided to stay with iPhone or go back to Android yet! If I do go back, it isn;t going to be any of those folding screen phones...not to sure about those yet!!

The screen seems to be a continuous one that's flexible.
