Well I hate touch id on my ipad 9, it's first gen. Seriously apple. Face id on my iphone is a breeze. I have attention features off so I don't even have to look at it, it unlocks faster this way I think.

Even better, it's basically:

2023, 2024, 2025, 2026, 2027

Based on Apple's track record, it'll be 5 years of updates.
And the updates come out right away when everyone else gets theirs, unlike with Android and different phones in different regions can wait many months longer than the lucky ones that get it first.

Ordered iPhone 14 Pro Max in Japan, still "processing" after 30 days

I've ordered an iPhone 14 pro max on 29th of november and its still processing. The arrival time it states: 04/01/2023 - 11/01/2023. I will be in Osaka where it will arrive from the 4th until the 16th but im scared lol. Any idea what I can do or if anyone has a similar experience?

IMHO you should wait the iPhone 15 since it might have USB C (>90% chance IMHO) and the Pro version will also have better camera (>90% at least main, >50% to have significantly improved tele).

I myself just jumped from OnePlus 5T to 14 Pro Max and I love it. I was big Android fanboy and said that I will never get an Apple phone but times has changed. 0 regerts I love this phone. The only thing it's really annoying for me is the photos app. There is no specific folder for pictures taken with camera like the androids and everything goes to one place in the gallery. You have to go manually to create albums and move the pictures. Overall my expirence with the iPhone 11/10.

It is a problem for me, probably about 3-4 on an annoying scale as your friend said. I often use my phone in bed with head half in pillow -- FaceID almost never recognizes my face in this position and I have to either move my head or use the passcode.

Even if I'm in a normal upright position, it has a higher error rate for me than TouchID, though it's mostly accurate and fast.

All that being said, the upgrade is totally worth it regardless. I went from a 7 to a 12mini, and it can just handle way more stuff and without delays/glitches.

Upgrading a 3090 to a 4090 also makes almost no difference for the average user, it will only be noticeable in certain games and/or on a 4K display. In these scenarios you’d notice it on the iPhone as well, but there are almost no apps that utilise the power of the SoC fully like that.
