New Cheating Worry Unlocked 🔓

Sorry, lurking parent here. Curious what the loop hole was? We opted to get our kid (10 when we did this in 2023) an Apple Watch SE instead of a phone. During the school hours it’s put in school mode and I told my kid that if I ever see the alert for it to come out of school mode during school hours

What’s a sign someone is wealthy but isn’t directly showing it?

Not always a prime indicator. I have very wealthy friends who wear the basic black aluminum Apple Watch. I asked once, and the reply I got was, "Why buy Titanium cases when it's gonna be obsolete in 3 years?" Same with the Ultra. Now some of the bands are outrageous... A high-end watch is actually c

Is getting an Apple Watch worth if for running?

I started out with a used Apple Watch SE. It’s more than good enough for most use cases.

Current Apple Ecosystem Setup

My current setup is based on my preference (I have small hands and ear holes so I didn’t get the max version of each item)

  1. iPhone 16 Pro - my main phone, the photo and video are really good even in raw shots

  2. AirPods Gen 3 - The music quality of these earphones is good. I use it for music and in my

Don't play with your future for small luxuries bought from debt

Good decision. Remember:- An Apple watch ultra worth 85k, bought for your OWN HAPPINESS IS CHEAP. An Apple watch S 11 worth 45k, bought to IMPRESS OTHERS IS EXPENSIVE. An Apple watch SE worth 30k, bought because YOUR COLLEAGUE HAS ONE IS THE MOST EXPENSIVE OF ALL. Source:- Balkrishna Bagaria.

Awe Dropping | Post Event Megathread

Key takeaway: the entry watch (SE) and base iPhone are now “good enough” for most people. The average Apple customer who does not frequent Reddit no longer feels like they will be missing out by not splurging for the pros. The pro phones, newest Apple Watch series 11, and ultra, are status symbols a

Duty watch

Nah, I save the nice watches for going out. My old scratched up Apple Watch SE is my patrol watch because the text alerts are handy when I don’t want to reach for my phone.

How true is it that many Filipinos are now able to buy things like iPhones, branded clothes, and appliances because of the more common credit-card monthly installment features?

Marami yan. Sayang kasi eh. Kung may pambayad ka naman at nakakaipon ka naman, bakit hindi? Ako i bought a lot of my gadgets on installment 0% interest when there are bank promos, usually 12 month term. I bought my iphone17 pro for 71k and got it on release day instead of 80k. I bought my apple watc

Preveri če ti SOVA prisluškuje

Bojimo se, če SOVA zbira te podatke, ampak če jih Meta/Apple/Samsung/Garmin pridobi, in nato preproda naprej Palantirju, je pa ok.

Apple iOS 27 to Be No-Frills ‘Snow Leopard’ Update, Other Than New AI

My first gen iPhone SE performed better with inferior hardware. New Apple silicon is much more capable but software quality went down the hill.
