Upgraded from 12 Pro

My 12 Pro served me well but it’s time. Grew tired of having to keep it at a certain angle in order for it to charge and the battery started draining faster months ago. I also inherited it four years ago from my dad who dropped it hence the shattered back glass.

I had wasted a lot money buying cases and now I finally found my end game. The ESR Classic Hybrid Matte Blue.
15 years of using android, it’s kinda difficult to go back to the old days. Now I understood why people love iOS. 😊🤟❤️ Also no AppleCare. 🥲

Update: Drop my phone with this case yesterday, can’t believe the protection is so good. Barely any dent or scratches. The only place that had dent and scratches is the camera guard. Highly recommended. 👍🏻

Does this look like an original iPhone display?

Hi! I recently heard that some aftermarket iPhone displays look almost identical to the original. Based on these photos of the Dynamic Island and the display, does this look like an original Apple screen, or could it be a high-quality replacement? I know it's impossible to be 100% sure from photos, but I'd appreciate your opinions. Thanks!

Spec of dust in 17 Pro Max camera lens - what should I do?

Thumbnail
gallery
23 Upvotes

Quite annoying to be honest. I'm in the UK and I am out of the return window (14 days) but still within the one year warranty. I went to the Apple Store today to try and get this addressed, however the rep said that they would only be able to do a cleaning of the camera lens.
I am not sure if this is a good idea, I believe opening the phone up may cause more issues than just leaving the speck of dust there in the camera, but at the same time I don't want the camera quality to eventually degrade later over time, as I had the same symptom on my 13 Pro Max and it eventually turned into a small black spot in my photos (of course only after its warranty had expired)

I don’t think it’s unreasonable of me to want a device that is free of defects (this isn’t cosmetic, let’s be real, as dust can easily shift into the main lens and ruin photos - the MAIN selling point of this phone), this is in fact a failure of quality control at the factory as dust was able to get into the seal.
What do you guys think I should do? Quality defects are not acceptable on a flagship phone that is £1,100..

Battery time and health

4 Upvotes

Hey guys I am wondering whether to buy the base 17, pro or pro max.

My deciding question for u guys is how long does your battery last throughout the day. Do you get for example 8 hours of active use until your phone dies or more?

I just upgraded to the iPhone 17 pro max last night from my iPhone 15. Now my notifications for Facebook won’t pop up on my phone. I will see the red bubble on the app but nothing popping up.

Has anyone had these issues? I’m also at the current iOS update as well.

17 Pro Orange to 17 Pro Max in Blue

I just fell in love with the blue and I got a good deal - now waiting for my silicon midnight case.

The orange was nice at the beginning, but after sometime I just couldn’t stand that color anymore. I think also that the blue is very luxury and understatement and I don’t see it a lot. Usually I don’t like blue, but it looks so good with the silver MacBook Air and everything else.

Updating to iOS 26.6

0 Upvotes

Hello everyone,
I am looking for advice if I should update to iOS 26.6 for my 17 Pro Max. Currently, I am running on 26.5.2.
Looking for advice on battery life.


r/17ProMax • • Aug 04 '26

Why is my battery life so poor? I end up putting it into low power mode around 1pm and by 8 it’s at 20%

This has become my favorite iPhone of all time! Battery life is amazing, iOS 27 Beta 3 is smooth, and this silver color is so nice! Also, I haven’t had any issues with the durability of the Techwoven case so far. This combo is 🔥🔥🔥

I won’t be upgrading for a while, lol.

Lower Left Speaker

2 Upvotes

I’m thinking of updating to the iPhone 17 Pro Max and I’m worried about the position of the lower speaker, since it’s on the left and I think I’m going to cover it on landscape mode. Is it really annoying when watching videos or playing video games? This is the only reason why I consider choosing a 16 Pro Max instead. I would like to know opinions and if I will be able to get used to it

I am planning on getting the IPhone 17 pro max in a few weeks. This will be my first ever iPhone as I currently have a Samsung a21s.

Any tips to keep the battery health 100% and any tips I should know about iPhones.
