[Official] iPhone 7 (Plus) Discussions

[metamofia89]

So far I've tried restoring with both iCloud and iTunes backups. No difference. I've set it up as a new phone too and can't tell the difference too.

Is there any security issues if I install the Beta iOS? Since there will be a way to send apple the bugs and feedback will there be a security flaw?

I'm on 10.0.2. It is more likely a software issue than a hardware issue. Maybe the newer 10.1 would improve battery life for you as many beta users are claiming better battery life. If it is really bothering you, maybe try a clean install without backup??

Your 7+ running on Beta? Since you're getting great battery life.

Went to macrumors and some of the users there posted their battery life. Astounding numbers for the regular 7. So that's why I'm unsure if my set is faulty or the OS is buggy. My mom's SE looks to be adapting well on iOS 10 too. I've got a spare 6 though and not sure if I should carry that with my backup on for a day and see how?

5 hours 56 mins, 23 hours 43 mins standby with 5% left.

Used safari most. No gaming or video watching. Low power mode for about 5 hours last night.

No Siri, no raise to wake. Switch on reduced motion toggle too.

i think in local context 6-7hrs should be considered decent. u can't compare with e US. it seems like e coverage there is better or something, most of e time i see ppl in US forums posting phenomenal batt life...

Yeah and I can't even get to 7 hours of non-graphical intense usage. Just safari browsing and few messages on iMessage and WhatsApp.

What could be the potential issue ah?

I agree with you, batt life here can't fight angmoh side. Their ip7 batt can pwn us using 7+ here. I saw some posting phenomenal battery life on their 7 in the US. Despite Our country being smaller, reception still an issue after so Long. Wondering what the telco doing sometimes.

 

[radzkal]

just wondering, is it possible to call apple n tell them that i want to upgrade my phone to a bigger storage even though i purchase my phone from telco? of course, top up the price difference..

nice find. didn't know about this brand while i was searching for true wireless earbuds. seems like got positive reviews.

tried to find actual photo of the earbud in the ear but can't find. i'm concern if wearing this will look ugly anot due to the round shape.

JB CFM will have scratches even when using casing. Due to dust, sand when in.. Youtube got review it. Best is use skin wrap to protect it. But when peel off logo will drop off if u dont mind. As for me i dont care what logo at all, Best i want is maintain in GOOD condition. But end up i sold off my JB 128gb buy 256gb Matt Black.. HAHA..

Misinformation. Logo will not drop off or anything. Just that it fades abit. Nothing major. Anyways, people who buy Jet Black should have already known what they were getting into. No use getting a fully polished phone and worrying about every single thing....

The 300 USD earbuds?? What made you go for them over the BeatsX or X2 or even Soundsport?

I find weather widget not really useful in Singapore. Just walk to the nearest window, you'll get better information.
I use myenv app for rain forecast and also see the animation for short term ownself forecast..

I have disabled all that except the weather widget because I need those. Background activity only for two low-powering apps. Are you running on a Beta iOS?

What are the chances of me having a bad battery? How can I check it at my end?

It will fade over time until it can be gone, depending on the wear rate
