Looks like after Telegram updated the app today to v11.2, the red 1 is gone as I don't see it the whole day.

Thanks for sharing. I was so annoyed by the red indicator. Just updated telegram and the red indicator is gone finally

if you’re consistently using your phone like gaming and it’s hot of course health will wear down? 88% still well within the terms of warranty

I play youtube videos while charging via USB-C at night as I doze off into my sleep. After almost one year my 15PM battery health is down to 93% at 261 cycles.

Anyone using 3rd party app to have dual WhatsApp on ios? Which one would be good?

I’m won’t even think of that.

Ok then I better not. Later account compromised then will be a big issue.

Multiple account/number for WhatsApp has been supported on Android since Oct 2023. Not sure why this feature is still not being released on iOS after so long. We can have multiple logins for Facebook, Messenger, Instagram and even many other chat apps have support for multiple logins on iOS.

It's probably an iOS limitation that's why. Apple likely is not supporting.

Hi guys is there any difference from buying from Shopee and Apple Store online, other than able to return to Apple Store ?

the only diff in shopee/lazada only during preorder has discount (i.e. -$100 bank voucher). now prob no more alr.

maybe can consider look at street shops for better pricing.

I believe for 25w wireless charging, the device needs to be MFI certified first?

Dont say powerbank, there is still no 3rd party magsafe charger that can hit 25w
Currently only the new official apple magsafe at $59 (note that the new version is using braided cable) can hit 25w, others qi2 can only hit 15w
Please correct me if i am wrong

Very interesting stuff reported by Bloomberg

umm Telegram, IG supports multiple user so it’s likely Meta not building it into the app for whatever reason..

Interesting but then again many of Apple products are already not on yearly upgrade cycle (i.e iPads, MacBook and slowly Apple Watch as well as the Ultra this year is only a new colour not an upgrade)

The only never changing annual upgrade is the iPhone. It always launches on the 3rd Friday of September. It's one of the most predictable thing for more than 15 years. Without any surprises, next year's iPhone will launch on 19th Sep 2025 and people can start to take leave already hahaha

That said, moving new iPhone releases to biennially would be a major major change but perhaps a much needed change as the yearly upgrade is really too minimal these days. Biennially could create a pent up demand and boost sales.

If they really push ahead, you can be sure the Samsung and others would look to follow suit.

iPhone X and iPhone 12 not launch in Sept.

iPhone X and iPhone 12 not launch in Sept.

iPhone 8 was launched in Sep for the iPhone X year. I think iPhone X is considered a Special Edition phone
Much like the iPhone SE which is also released off-cycle

iPhone 12 was due to COVID-19 so Apple didn't intentionally deviate from the Sep launch cycle but instead was due to challenging circumstances.

It really depends how was WhatsApp initially built also. But I think is Meta not building it for whatever reason considering no iPad app for Instagram too lol

That said, moving new iPhone releases to biennially

I don't think Apple wants to do that considering iPhone is 51% of revenue.
