Two days with the new iPhone 15 Pro Max. I love it. Hereโ€™s my experience so far:

1. 6.7" Max display ๐Ÿ˜ I didnโ€™t expect that simply increasing the diagonal would bring changes in the experience of using the iPhone. You see more details in the photos / videos without zooming in. You see more info in apps, webpages, emails, everywhere. Typing is more comfortable. Videos look amazing. I hold the phone further away from my face, which is good ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘Œ

2. Titanium design โœจ Beautiful, pleasant to the touch, slightly rounded edges, reduced weight. Love it. I donโ€™t want to put it in a case ๐Ÿ˜…

3. USB-C โšก๏ธ Still unusual, but awesome. Now I donโ€™t have to search for the lightning cable, I just pick up any USB-C laying around and charge / connect. Tried AR glasses, now easily connected without additional adapters ๐Ÿ˜Ž

4. Cameras ๐Ÿ“ธ I havenโ€™t played with them enough, but currently I donโ€™t notice much of a difference, except for slightly improved HDR, slightly more details due to 24MP default resolution with main camera and better longer zoom with 5x.

5. Performance ๐Ÿ’ช Obviously it works fast and smooth. I was excited to play with the new GPU, tried my favorite Wreckfest, plays good, but I donโ€™t notice better performance, still frame drops, high temperature.

This is all for now. In general, I really like it. I need to spend more time with cameras and check daily battery life. If you have any questions, let me know โœŒ๏ธ

I can see myself actually using this! Even higher resolution would have been better, but itโ€™s still cool

Meta Quest 3 or XREAL Air 2?

Many people ask me what I recommend. I think that these are completely different devices.

Meta Quest 3 is a standalone VR and MR headset for immersive gaming, fitness, work, watching movies in your room or in a huge movie theater, and for many other different apps.

XREAL Air 2 is an accessory that is connected by wire to your phone, laptop or game console and displays its image on a large virtual screen.

Which of these gadgets you choose depends on what you want.

Do you want to immerse yourself in virtual and mixed reality with many different games and experiences - Meta Quest 3.

Do you want small and lightweight glasses for watching movies or playing games on your phone, Steam Deck, or displaying your laptop screen on a large screen - XREAL Air 2.

โ€ผ๏ธ iPhone App Sideloading Coming to Users in the EU in First Half of 2024

iPhone users in the EU next year will be able to download apps hosted outside of Apple's official Apple Store to comply with European regulations, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman ๐Ÿ˜ง

This will allow customers to download apps without needing to use the โ€ŒApp Storeโ€Œ, which will mean developers won't need to pay Apple's 15 to 30 percent fees.
