Are you saying a Pixel 3 is vastly superior to an iPhone XR?Change, why would you be getting an iPhone ?
Why not get the Pixel 3 or something vastly superior instead ?
Lol okay. That’s enough hyperbole for one day.

If Google stops partnering with Verizon in America, I would consider it. But right now dual SIM support would help me on my overseas tripsChange, why would you be getting an iPhone ?

maybe it'll work after the carriers enable it for the iPhone. But from what I'm reading on XDA, dual SIM wouldn't be available unless Google enables it. Back to iPhoneI've been curious if you can use the eSIM on Pixels for any US carrier and then use the SIM tray for your overseas SIM(s). But in the light research I've done on it, it seems that the eSIM is only good for Project Fi service.

I was using CallerApp on Android, which is amazing for blocking spam and recording calls. But on the iPhone, I'm now getting so much spam (so much political shit). I've got both Hiya and TrueCaller installed on the iPhone. Neither of them blocks anything!

I need help badly in this. I just got a frigging automated call with them using my name about helping me with student loans, and hold on the line... I HAVE NO STUDENT LOANS!!! WTF?!?might be conflicting with Apple's auto blocker, since they brought it in I haven't been getting spam messages.
You can still go in to see "blocked calls" and I had over 40! wtf?!
Ah yes, I just got one of those calls a couple hours ago...for the third time in the past week. All under different numbers.I need help badly in this. I just got a frigging automated call with them using my name about helping me with student loans, and hold on the line... I HAVE NO STUDENT LOANS!!! WTF?!?
My phone didn’t start auto blocking until I started blocking them myself. Try blocking the numbers after. I have 10 blocked voice mails too lol.I need help badly in this.

Mine have been pre-recorded.Got a call a few hours ago with some guy asking if I was [my name]. I asked him why he wants to know and to state the purpose of his call. When he wouldn't answer either question I hung up on him.
Caller's Area Code and 3 digit prefix was the same as mine. Was that the same for you?
Yea apparently my iPhone auto blocks those calls now.Got a call a few hours ago with some guy asking if I was [my name]. I asked him why he wants to know and to state the purpose of his call. When he wouldn't answer either question I hung up on him.

I tried using my younger bro's iPhone SE, now that he's moved on to an XS, to familiarize myself a bit more with iOS (not as a phone, though, my SIM's staying firmly in my Note 8).I feel like a lot of people knock iOS until they really try it. I was one of them. I like it a lot now
My Note 8 shrugs it off, but I suppose having 6 GB of RAM helps.If someone spIns off Android to use memory management like iOS and Windows Phone (save states with a few categories of apps that is approved for multitasking instead of all apps multitasking), it'll be pretty close to perfect. This memory allocation issue killing the launcher or other system vital tasks is what I don't like the most about Android. Shit like TouchWiz is even worse by using so much RAM that's there's hardly any free memory left. I can't even answer phone calls on that POS GS9 because the phone app just simply don't work. An iPhone with 3GB of RAM performs better than an Android with 8GB (though a superior processor might have a lot to do with that too).
Except for when you want something open in the background and iOS just force-closes it on you.iOS’ task manager is leaps and bounds better than Androids free for all approach
iOS allows background app's to run, you have to allow it, but it will either store the app in stasis (default) or allow limited capability (to include connections) if allowed.Except for when you want something open in the background and iOS just force-closes it on you.
Two fairly common complaints I've heard are that iOS can't do background downloads (something that's trivial on any real OS), and that it'll disconnect from remote desktop sessions where an Android device will stay connected.
There needs to be some kind of user-adjustable priority on that, sorta like prioritizing what ship subsystems you want to keep online in Elite: Dangerous when you deploy your weapon hardpoints and exceed your reactor's capacity, so you trim down the minor stuff that you wouldn't use in combat to bring your overall power usage down to what your reactor can handle.
On the other hand, that kind of flies in the face of iOS's touted simplicity, which is why I'll probably never get along with it at this rate.
And most of these complaints are not something that 99% of people would ever care about. I'm not saying they may not be valid. I'm saying that if you have some specific needs, then an iPhone might not be for you. I'm still very happy.
One complaint I do have is the slow ass charging with the included charging cable. Not including a fast charger on a $1000+ phone is crazy.
Yea, I wish they’d pick up the pace too.And most of these complaints are not something that 99% of people would ever care about. I'm not saying they may not be valid. I'm saying that if you have some specific needs, then an iPhone might not be for you. I'm still very happy.

You can also swap out the keyboards without a jailbreak. Lol. You have a lot to research still.
Not that I disagree with it, but I've got them third party much higher wattage Anker chargers years ago. Since Apple isn't changing the technology like QC 1, 2, and 3, I didn't have to buy a new charger for faster charging. Heck, I've never even taken the charger out of the box. My newest Anker USB-PD 60W charger (with Apple's usb-c to lightning cable) is charging my iPhone/iPad even quicker - a charger I got to charge my tablet and my Essential Phone.
Yep, that is what I use with wireless charging. Anker products.
I use Samsung wireless chargers. Work just fine with the X
Hmmm, could be outdated complaints. I'll have to dive further into this. After all, complaints about not having cut/copy/paste or a file manager (even if it's a neutered one) are rather outdated at this point!iOS allows background app's to run, you have to allow it, but it will either store the app in stasis (default) or allow limited capability (to include connections) if allowed.
I've never had an issue with downloads happening in the background, this hasn't been an issue in years. Sounds like a PEBKAC issue here.
Remote desktop also works fine if not the top app for anything less than 5 minutes. If you leave a remote desktop session in the background then that's a security hazard so I'm ok with that disconnecting regardless.
Let me clarify this: is there a single keyboard on the official App Store that can do what SwipeExpander does?You can also swap out the keyboards without a jailbreak. Lol. You have a lot to research still.
Looks like iOS 12.1 not only fixed the beauty mode on the selfie mode, but also added a little bit more contrast to all photos by default in post processing for both front and rear facing cameras.

I have an X and an XS Max and have been going back and forth between the two for the past few weeks.
I have not noticed any issues with connectivity /reception on AT&T at least. Where my X worked the Max does as well.
I like the size of the X for carrying around but the Max when using in most instances. Turned 50 last year so the larger text overall is nice and just generally having the larger screen has been very nice from a user standpoint.
Trying out some very thin TPU cases has made the size more manageable.
My wife is wants the XS Max. Just waiting on a decent deal where you don't have to jump through hoops.
Deals direct from Apple are extremely rare. They just started to give additional trade-in value with the purchase of an iPhone XR likely due to weak sales. But other than that, I don't remember the last promo from Apple on iPhones that was note-worthy.Good luck. Thats kind of the way things work in cellphones. Unless you can find a deal direct from Apple.

If there was a BOGO Pixel deals (soon after release) are available for everyone not just Verizon customers, I would have gotten them.
