    Just left Apple Store regarding iPhone 12 Pro Max flickering issue

    Posted: 18 Nov 2020 05:19 PM PST

    I went to the Apple store earlier today and informed them of the flickering screen issue and that I was able to reproduce the problem on my iPhone 12 Pro Max in a dark room with low brightness. Genius rep ran diagnostics on the device and showed me that everything passed. Genius rep recommended a hard reset which I did in store with the rep. Was not able to verify flickering issue in store due to bright light. Rep said that it is most likely a software issue. Told rep that if the problem persists what should I do, rep said to hard reset every week or so. Asked if software update to 14.3 that's coming out doesn't fix the issue, what should be my next step, rep said to come back so that they can investigate further. Just got home and was able to verify that the problem still persists after a hard reset with no restore of back up. Wondering if I should return my device before the 14 day return window.

    Edit: Problem is evident in Safari when playing video in portrait mode and low brightness. Top and bottom black sections flicker every couple seconds but not consistently like in the YouTube app that occurs every second with black screen test.

    Edit 2: Updated iOS build version from iOS 14.2 (18B92) to iOS 14.2 (18B111) and problem is still persistent. With empty messages app and brightness lowered, the messages black background looks grey and doesn't not flicker in dark mode, it will later correct itself and turn off to display true OLED blacks.

    Edit 3: I will try and update this post with video tomorrow showing YouTube app, Safari, and Messages app

    Does anyone else’s iPhone 12 Pro Max constantly pop out of the Apple-branded leather case?

    Continuum on future iPhones?

    Posted: 19 Nov 2020 03:11 AM PST

    Could someone with more knowledge explain whether this is possible: since A and M chip are very close in architecture, would there be anything stopping Apple from from putting M chips in iPhones and giving them a continuum feature when plugged in to a monitor, turning them into full blown macs?

    Update regarding iphone 12 yellow tint

    Posted: 18 Nov 2020 11:10 AM PST

    I booked an appointment to an apple service centre because of the infamous yellow tint (whites look yellow and greys look greenish). I got a chance to compare my phone to the display unit at 2 different stores (apple stores and reliance digital which is one of the official sellers here in India) and compared the models there to my device.

    The units at both the stores were similar to my phone and their display was the same as well, I compared my 12 with the 12 mini and there was a slight difference but 12s were exactly similar.

    The display units had higher brightness at max settings as compared to my phone, but that could be an internal setting when phones are kept on display mode. There was no difference in colour.

    Now regarding the service centre, they told me that apple is doing an internal investigation and this issue has been brought into their notice and the service centre people are not allowed to perform any changes to the 12 as of now. (They showed me the notice and it said 12 specifically, the mini or the pros were not mentioned)

    So hopefully this is a minor issue and is sorted by apple.

    Would love to discuss this in the comments :)

    Is texting in general taxing for the battery?

    Posted: 18 Nov 2020 05:50 PM PST

    Just curious because I've noticed that I can use my phone less but just text a good bit throughout the day and the battery on my SE would get hit pretty hard. I didn't know if texting was taxing because it had to use cellular.

    This is no problem now on the 12 pro max since I end the day at like 65% because it's hard to kill this phone.
