I have to switch to iPhone

I bought a used Samsung S22 for $140 from Walmart and paid for an extra phone line just to use my Android Auto. My 16 "pro" "max" (LOL) still doesn't work correctly with my new Honda's Carplay bc well, it's utter dogshi and a 3 year base model Samsung makes it work perfect. This isn't an exotic foreign supercar it's a freaking CRV. They know it's a known issue (devs are working on it) and the workaround they told me is to wait for an update. That was 2 months and 2 updates ago absolute View attachment 103261 show company but happy it works for your purposes.

Anymore, I am not a big iPhone user. Honestly, the latest iPhone 16 Max Pro I bought (a good deal) was overkill. I get the Max Pro each time for its large screen, 8GB of RAM, maximum CPU speed, and usually with 256GB of storage. I mostly upgrade to a new version about every two versions, choosing the time to do so about 1-2 months before the planned release of a new version. Knowing that version 17 is coming out in September, I upgraded from version 14 to 16 in July/August, also taking advantage of a sale using the best deal provider, in my case, Xfinity.

I have no compulsion to buy anything better. A lot of people get by just fine, 4-5 generations behind on the iPhone. When they decide to upgrade, they usually have to pay full price.
 
I like the new iPhone 17 because it's thinner. I like thin phones to fit in my pants pocket and not bulge out. Nando has to look good.
Unfortunately, I heard the camera is inferior to iPhone 16. I'll wait for iPhone 18 with better camera.
 
I have a Samsung and I have an iPhone and the Android system is way better and it's not even close. I use the iPhone to monitor kid activities (they HAD to have an iPhone) and for appraisals. Samsung is for everyday use and I love the Samsung, dislike the iPhone greatly.
I actually like the iPhone integration with all their other products (ipad, apple watch and ipods). People are creatures of nature and don't like change. Once I got used to the iPhone (15+ years ago) I understood the appeal. I have friends switch all the time and tell me how much they hate it because it does not work like their android phone). I was using the iPad for mobile appraising before I had a iPhone. I do like that I can do the appraisal inspection with either my phone or the iPad, but the iPad is much easier for appraisal work.

I don't upgrade every year, I usually do every other year, but I waited three years this time. I never finance. I always pay it in full and give my old iPhone to somebody in my family. Amazingly, somebody always needs it. Grandkids mostly these days.
 
I dropped my charger end into a small dish that had salsa in it about a week ago but was empty. It's been working fine since then but today I plug it in and immediately get am the charge port is wet unplug immediately. I instantly smell burnt electronics ofc the phone port smells bad. I let it dry (didn't think it was wet) and it's worked fine ever since. 8,000 miles later in my CRV I'm still using Samsung S22 for AA even with iOS 26 they still say the "engineers" (**tards) are still working on a fix clown world.jpg
 
I met my future wife tonight (if I'm unlucky lol) she was the absolute best chick ever. Smokin hot, funny, conservative, Christian, young, short and Italian :love:

Sounds to good to be true. Best buy her a plane ticket to Texas and let me check her out for you before it's too late. All these chicks hear "real estate appraiser" and the dollar signs start immediately flashing where their eyeballs used to be.
 
She's a nurse (aren't they all) and I'm not letting her anywhere near you!

I told you. You wouldn't buy a used car without having an expert check it out first, would you? Don't make that same mistake with this one.
