alt Hacker NewsStill happy with my iPhone 7. Replaced display and battery, at an Apple Store, last year. Gaming, AI and photography are curiosities I look at from afar. For the rest it drives me around on vacation via CarPlay and Apple Maps. Handles my home banking, pre paid card and Apple Pay without a hitch. Chatting and calling on too many apps. Manages my digital IDs, medical records, emails, notes and calendar. Translates my conversations and runs Automations. It will soon help me charge an electric car. What more can I expect from it.
Same but 7+, it’s great. Battery got replaced every 42 months at 80%, and the only inconvenience for me with it is it doesn’t support iOS16/17+ apps and features like Grok, Tesla’s auto trunk open, and Garmin’s fitness app. I’m curious what shortcut/automations do you use? And I’m wondering in general how X’s Grok feature is any different functionally from their standalone iOS17+ app.
