As you might know I skipped the iPhone 12 so I’m coming to the iPhone 13 Pro from the iPhone 11. I’m using case-less, just a screen protector. I also used the 11 without a case. The screen size is the same between these but the 13 Pro is a little heavier (not that noticeable)Continue reading “iPhone 11 vs iPhone 13: how it compares to hold and use daily”
iPhone 11 vs iPhone 13 Pro: night mode
I’m going to be posting my thoughts as I test the new iPhone and thought I’d start with one image. This is just a straight up shot at night. This is the one that showed how much improved the 13 camera is. Here’s the 13 shot (above) a nice colour sky and stars clearly visible.Continue reading “iPhone 11 vs iPhone 13 Pro: night mode”
Unboxing the new iPad Mini
I’m a huge fan of the iPad Mini, its my main and only iPad. Well, I picked up a new iPad Mini yesterday and wanted to post the unboxing experience. Unlike the iPhone, the iPad still comes wrapped in plastic. I loved the wallpaper being used. Inside you’ll find it wrapped in a paper covering.Continue reading “Unboxing the new iPad Mini”
How good is the iPhone 13 Pro at macro photography?
I’ve had fun playing with the iPhone 13 Pro and I’m really impressed with the macro capabilities. There is a bit of glitch with the switching between lenses but that’ll be fixed in software.

How to put the address bar back to the top in Safari on iOS 15
I didn’t participate in much beta testing this year so the Safari changes were all pretty new to me. I actually quite like the search bar on the bottom as someone using a larger iPhone but I can see this being an annoyance if you’d prefer to have it like before. The good news isContinue reading “How to put the address bar back to the top in Safari on iOS 15”
iPhone 13 Pro reviews
Apple lifted it’s embargo on the iPhone 13 yesterday and early hands on impressions started to come out in the afternoon. The best one I feel right now is from The Verge. The main reason I say this is that I feel like it’s an unbiased take on a week with the device. 90% ofContinue reading “iPhone 13 Pro reviews”
What’s new in Photos on iOS 15
This is a really great overview by Jason Snell at Six Colors. Photos has had a nice update, although I can’t get it to identify points of interest or objects for me. Maybe it’s because I’m using an iPhone 11?
Using Safari on iOS 15
You may have heard that Safari on iOS 15 has gone through a lot of changes over the summer and in the final release we have what I think is a great browser. I’ve actually made the switch from my previous DuckDuckGo now and I’m really happy with the setup. Extensions Within settings, Safari, extensionsContinue reading “Using Safari on iOS 15”
iOS 15 releases today
I’ve been so busy that I forgot iOS 15 is out today. I’m currently on iOS 14 and I think I’ll be staying on it for a couple of days to check in on the public release from afar. I did test the release master beta from Apple and it wasn’t great for me. TheContinue reading “iOS 15 releases today”
