Have to put up with something till dies … I did suggest to them to have a phone allowance so we can purchased our own phones and contracts. But it falls on deaf ears, they obviously want full control as all these apps are IT controlled just days ago where you can’t even share a link or open it. It’s now requesting to contact IT for access……..the reality and inconvenience of controlling all data out of the organisation. Possible a good thing to prevent unwanted hacking 1

POV Posted September 17, 2023 Posted September 17, 2023 (edited) Well…just walked into the office and my IT lead said: ‘BTW your phone is out of date so I have ordered you an iPhone 15’. That’s what I get for delegating responsibility to people I guess. Will report back when said phone arrives. Edited September 17, 2023 by POV 2 1

But I'm not replacing them till they die. Both daughters only lasted a couple of months before cracking the faces. We won't fix the screens because they won't use proper protective cases because they don't look cool . Kids and devices... 1 1

Apple was “forced” to make this change due to EU and from all reports it’s a slap in the face for Apple users as it’s limited to USB 2.0 specs, It's only the cable that comes with the phone that is USB 2.0 limited. This from Apple's iPhone 15 USB-C support page Quote The USB-C cable that comes with your iPhone supports charging and USB 2 speeds. If you want to use a USB 3 device, use a compliant USB 3 cable that supports 10Gbit/s. I have a 15 Pro Max ordered for pick up tomorrow, I'm an iPhone tragic and update every year. I use a case and screen protector so my phones are always pristine and I get a good price for them so they subsidise the phone the next year. 1
Steff Posted September 20, 2023 Posted September 20, 2023 All good points...but has anybody considered the xkcd phone? From the advertisement: "all-vinyl storage for maximum fidelity" 3

Apple USB-C ports are usually also Thunderbolt capable. I haven't seen anything specific for the 15, but I imagine that it is also a Thunderbolt port; which gives it very capable data transfer capabilities.

I know the price is out of control for a phone, hopefully you’re getting the pro to try out that camera, if I were to get one I’d be doing the same because it’s for her and all she does is take pics and then get them off to social media…. Love the way you can connect a SSD with a USB3.0
betty boop Posted September 22, 2023 Posted September 22, 2023 (edited) turned up... the usb cable is not the standard light weight effort of previous that apple also sell... Edited September 22, 2023 by betty boop 2
