  • Don't update to iOS 13 just yet -- wait for iOS 13.1

    I always update on release day and thus far, I haven’t encountered any issues. I love the simplified way AirDrop now works with contacts, I haven’t seen the No Sender Mail issue’s, and the new swipe keyboard is pretty cool and comparable to GBoard I used by Google. I’m pretty happy with iOS 13, especially Night Mode. 
    I haven't either. This time I updated early simply because of Apple Arcade. Without it I might wait.

    And yes, swipe keyboard is great, but how do you type double letters, like le'tt'ers?

    These 3D Icons are as unApple as it gets. Fake i would say.
    Apple used to have tons of 3D icons... And these are clearly placeholder graphics, not the final product icons...
    I look at this and I think this tag, you'll be able to label it and it will automatically add an icon for you like you label it a bicycle and you'll get a bicycle icon etc.

    Skeuomorphism seems to be making a comeback!!
    ..after Ives hands off.

    I think it's a good news. I never heard anyone complained about Skeuomorphism apart from nerds in internet. Admittedly Forstall was a bit heavy handed with it. If it's kept within control I have no problem with it.

    iPhone 11 Pro Night Mode certainly beats Pixel hand down on details and colour balance from some video I saw. Unfortunately my wife doesn't want to upgrade her 6 this year (It's 6 years now for crying out loud! Why Apple had to make their phone too reliable???) and my friend just upgraded her 7 Plus to X so I have to wait another year to upgrade ugrrrr....
    It’s five years since the introduction of the iPhone 6.  
    Yeah.. 5 starting 6 (I was a bit dramatic there :D). Last time she upgraded her 4 at 5 years (when I bought my 6s and gave her my 6) so It's a perfect time to upgrade but she's just fine. :disappointed:

    "Light trails on iPhone are still possible though, notes Mann, as the device is able to detect when it is placed on a tripod versus handheld and adjusts so that light trails are still captured."

    I suppose it's the gyroscope and motion sensor to detect whether the phone is on tripod or on hand?


    And yes, I agree, that fisherman pic is just beyond any phone camera capability until 11 Pro. Any competitor night mode would just make it like a photo of "bright day" instead of capturing the night mood.
    Exactly. Even Austin Mann himself admitted as much in the review. ;)

    "One thing I love about Apple’s approach to Night mode is the strategic balance of solving a technical problem while also caring deeply about artistic expression. When you look at the image above, it’s clear their team didn’t take the let’s-make-night-look-like-day approach, as some of their competitors have. Instead, it feels more like an embrace of what it actually is (night) while asking, “How do we capture the feel of this scene in a beautiful way?”"
