Not to be dramatic but I feel weird about how good this iPhone is at a lot of things. Tldr; camera, battery, charging

The camera takes perfect photos and perfect video nearly every time. All I have to do is crop. Especially now that I changed the default video settings to 4K60fps.

The fact that I can take super clean photos AND they are optimized for every social media platform ever, it just feels so good. I'm coming from Android and this is my first iphone. (I still have 2 Android phones)

But more importantly my real issue with this phone is the battery life and charging. It lasts for so freaking long it's a 2 day phone, but then it also charges wicked fast at 60W.

Iphones aren't supposed to do that. At least historically they didn't. 60 Watts. Dawg.

My only true gripes with this phone is the lack of true customization, but the walled garden stuff mostly means the most consistent experience on earth. And that's fun.

Like as I'm typing this post, my battery has been at 5 the entire time. I'm letting it die because I want to see those 0-50 percent in 15 minutes speeds.

iOS 27.2 has been released. Please use this thread for all discussions related to iOS 27.2.

I needed a better camera, this was the solution. What a gorgeous phone!

My girlfriend and I both upgraded and so happy with the new colors.

Here’s little old nieve me “hey look at this iPhone 18 pro max, it’s great I should buy it”

*quick search on Reddit

Make sure you get one with a Samsung display not an LG, make sure you get China manufactured and not India, make sure you get the one with the fast SSD speed , hey did you hear about Qualcomm versus C2 modem discussion?

Feels like I’m playing powerball on 5 different things at once - I just wanna get the phone and enjoy it 😂

After 6 long years finally upgraded my iphone
Thanks to my xs max for his service

When the iPhone 18 Pro came out, I was really tempted to switch back to iOS because I completely fell in love with the Burgundy color. My previous iPhone was a 14 Pro, and I’ve been using a Galaxy S25 Ultra for the past two years. Honestly, I have zero complaints about Android—I actually really enjoyed the experience—but I kept missing iOS.

​Then, somehow, the internet convinced me that I didn't actually need the Pro features. And even though I was coming from an Ultra, I somehow fell for it, lol. So I ordered the base iPhone 17 in green (since green is my favorite color).

​I used it for a week, but the zoom was terrible. That was the reality check I needed to realize that the Pro features do actually matter to me. I’m definitely not a professional photographer or anything, but I love taking good pictures and I rely heavily on the zoom. So... I returned it.

​Now I’m finally about to get the 18 Pro, like I should have done in the first place. Just wanted to share that I'll be joining team burgundy very soon! 🍷 lol

Seriously. What the hell is going on? Sometimes l pick up my phone and before I even show my face the phone has already disabled Face ID and prompts for my pin for unlocking. I feel like I’m going crazy and gaslighted when Apple service keeps telling me it’s the screen protector causing issues. I mean the fact that it’s asking for my pin straight up without even trying face unlock points to the fact that it’s not a screen protector issue.

This won't be useful to everyone because I got my 18P from Apple but like many others my iPhone has been requiring the password for no reason many times throughout the day everyday and is not as reliable as previous Face ID versions when it does work. I contacted Apple support and the second person I connected with started a return for me. I got the phone on launch and it was out of the return window. Ik some people think it's a software bug but IMO if it was Apple would have fixed it by now.

Edit: I know most 18s are fine and I know screen protectors can mess with the new IR projector this is not that. The phone will require the passcode at random times throughout the day (it's not from failed attempts) and doesn't work as well as previous Face ID iterations under certain conditions. I've tried rescanning and resetting the phone and the issue is still there. If your phone is fine this post wasn't meant for you.

Anyone else experiencing the corners of the silicone crisp blue Apple phone case turning yellow ? I’ve only had it for 3 days and both corners are yellowish. Any tips on how to get rid of that or should I just exchange it for the black color.

I'm planning to buy an Iphone 18 Pro Max (shifting to Iphone for the first time).

I heard it's safe to buy 3-4 months after the official release date to be safe as Apple fixes bugs and other issues silently as news ones get produced, how legit is it?

Another concern is color, which color would be best? Personally I'm ranking black and silver as top (although all the colors are great this year). Personally I'm preferring black but a bit worried about it being a fingerprint magnet and due to the aluminum build, dents will be easily visible

Can anyone give some suggestions regarding these. Thanks in advance.

I really like the look and design of Aulumu A17 rugged case, plus it’s like half the price compared to A18 rugged case. Only question is wether the A17 will snap perfectly on 18 pro? I’ll be really grateful for your valuable feedback. Thanks

Do you guys have any leads kung saan meron hirap mag hanap

Anyone here who's been waiting for the 2nd wave release of 18 promax? I pre ordered October 6 and the staff said they're waiting for stock and can't promise a date. Do you have any idea of the estimated or maybe just a date range when I can receive it? I have a flight and I wont be able to get it if will be released late November. Just want to have an idea.

For previous iphone 17 pm series, did you guys have this experience too? How long did you get it from the date of your pre order? I'm from San Pedro, Laguna btw. Thank you for your time!

I love both phones!! I was more surprised by the duo!

I got my new iPhone 18 Pro Max very recently and haven’t dropped it but noticed a small hairline scratch on the camera. It hasn’t affected the quality of my pictures but I wonder if apple will replace the phone? Not sure how this happened because I’ve handled the phone very carefully. I wonder if this is a manufacturing defect?

Hello!

This is my first iphone, and Im looking to get a mount to use it on my motorcycle.

Any brand/model you recommend?

No creéis que apple debería hacer el pro max con un pequeño stillus al estilo samsung note? O por lo menos dar soporte al apple pencill igual que han hecho con el Duo??
