    iPhone Xs in-depth sensor specs.

    Posted: 07 Oct 2021 11:06 PM PDT

    Does anyone have links to where I can read up on in-depth sensor specifications for iPhones?

    I need detailed info about the accelerometer, barometer, three axis gyro et cetera.

    Apples website has only names of these sensors and is not useful for me.

    Any leads would be appreciated.

    Battery Improvement Percentage Based On 5 nm Of Qualcomm x60

    Posted: 07 Oct 2021 10:57 PM PDT

    The advertised nm went from 7nm to 5nm with the newly-used Qualcomm cellular chip in the iPhone 13. Does this mean roughly a 28% improvement in battery, all else being equal?

    In other words, is there a general rule-of-thumb that a 28% increase in transistors equates to about 28% efficiency?

    The significance is… does the battery improvement make it more feasible to set 5G to be on much more often.

    Launching Sampld: sound sharing app for content creators. Download the royalty-free sounds for free, or use the app to sync your videos with the sounds for TikTok, Reels, or YouTube shorts.

    Launching Sampld: sound sharing app for content creators. Download the royalty-free sounds for free, or use the app to sync your videos with the sounds for TikTok, Reels, or YouTube shorts.

    Hey everyone! I'm the founder of Chord Genius, a music startup. We just launched our new app called Sampld: a sound sharing platform made for musicians and content creators, where they can find quality sounds for free. In a nutshell, it's Unsplash for sounds.

    https://preview.redd.it/o3931uq9q6s71.jpg?width=2160&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=78906d5a6d59efdd4d3d7647ae30c4fbaa5ab6d4

    We understand that finding sounds can be daunting at times, be it for background music, beat for a song, or just an SFX. That's why we built Sampld - to help people share and use sounds that are both royalty-free and free to download.

    Some use cases:

    🎸: download and use in your music, or simply use the platform to find inspirations

    🎬: Put the sounds for a video or movie as background music

    🎙: Find a jingle song for a podcast segment

    🤳🏻: Use it for your TikTok/IG Story/Reels/YouTube shorts

    This is part of a pre-launch, there's more to come in the coming weeks planned out (e.g. a Product Hunt launch, some social media campaigns, blog posts, etc.), so if you decide to try out the app, I'd appreciate if you share your feedback here and/or review it on the App Store - that would mean a lot. The links are below:

    App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/sampld/id1525732466

    Google Play (just in case): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.chordgenius.sampld

    Web: https://open.sampld.app

    Thanks, and have a great day!

    When will IPhone owners be given the option to leave a group chat that includes Android users? I was added to a group thread without my permission and can’t get out. Hide alerts isn’t good enough.

    Trade-in iPhone without a carrier???

    Posted: 08 Oct 2021 12:50 AM PDT

    Hi. I'm new to trading-in used iPhone and is ignorant of technology-stuff so pardon my lack of knowledge.

    I have an iPhone 6 Plus (6 years old, 64GB, Gold color, in good condition) that I want to trade-in. When I tried to do trade-in, the website asked for the carrier. I used T-Mobile, however I removed the SIM card from the phone already (I'm using the SIM card in my new phone). Does this means my phone currently has no carrier? I thought we are supposed to remove SIM card before the trade-in so why are they even asking for the phone's carrier? There is no "no carrier" option given and so what am I supposed to do to proceed?

    Suggestions for a clear case that can charge wirelessly?

    Posted: 07 Oct 2021 11:28 PM PDT

    I got a Spiggen clear case with ridges but my phone has slipped out of my hand a couple of times already and it also doesn't feel secure in my back pocket when exercising. Does anyone have a suggestion for a case that provides good grip in a pants pocket as well as hand? I don't have large hands so the smaller the case the better. Even better if it has drop protection.

    Needing Help with iPhone Storage?

    Posted: 07 Oct 2021 08:26 PM PDT

    Semi new to iOS. I have a 64GB iPhone. I want to use Google Photos as my backup instead of iCloud (I also have a Pixel device) so I can keep my photos in one place basically.

    A few minutes ago I noticed photos were taking up 19GB of space on my phone, so I went into the stock gallery and deleted over 1,500 (out of 2,600) images/screenshots and almost 80 20-30second videos to try to reduce used space... And I'm now at 17GB.

    What gives?

    2 iPhone 12 minis sold with empty battery - poor demand/oversuply?

    Posted: 08 Oct 2021 01:22 AM PDT

    Hi,

    I purchased iPhone 12 mini from autohorized reseller lately. The phone didn't start. When connected to charger (20W/Cronge/PD3.0 compatible) - it was repeatedly restarting every few seconds. I returned it immediately and purchased second item from different reseller. This time I checked the phone as soon as I picked it up in the resellers shop. Same problem! I asked salesman for support. He connected iPhone to charger he had at hand. No reaction - device dead! Than he opened brand new original Apple charger - this time phone started to charge. It was left charging for a few minutes until it booted properly. From now on it's usable and able to charge from any charger.

    Some conclusions/questions:

    • It seems that demand for minis is such small and phones wait for purchasers in stores for so long that batteries drain to zero (is it even possible providing that production started 1 year ago?)
    • Or maybe I purchased 2 minis from failed lot with broken batteries?
    • Why was it neccesary to use original Apple charged to fix broken battery, anyway? 20W/PD3.0 compatible charger should work as well. Is Apple forcing me to purchase original charger?
    • I heard that it's very bad for batteries health to store them discharged. In such case I could expect health of battery to drop quicly? Is it true?

    Anybody else faced such problem? What's your opinion/advice? Should I keep it or return it and retry again purchasing next mini?

    PREEDIT: I cannot afford 13 mini (should be 12S actually). Price difference is not huge but I don't need any "new" features of 13 so it would be the waste of money for me anyway.

    Hi redditors,

    Recently I found my Iphone 5 and the funny thing is that the phone is on some version of IOS 7 the not so funny thing is that the phone is passcode locked and I can't remember the passcode and my question is if there is a way to unlock the phone without using Itunes (I want to keep the IOS 7 and as far as I know restoring an Iphone via Itunes gets the phome updated to the last supported version of IOS). I hope you all guys can help me

    p.s. Sorry if there are any grammatical mistakes, english is not my first language, I hope u understand :)
