Tim Cook says Apple can’t yet make enough iPhone 14 Pros to meet demand - 9to5Mac

Apple’s fiscal Q4 earnings are out and while the company saw another record for revenue, there were some slight misses...

Today I was amazed to receive my best-ever client experience from Telkom, with something I felt was going to be a struggle: getting an eSim for a physical SIM card I couldn’t use in my iPhone 14 (my previous S20 had been a dual-sim).

1) Walk into Telkom and explain what I want
2) Get asked to hand over my ID card
3) Am asked to confirm the prepaid sim I want to link to the esim (did not need to produce physical SIM card or proof of residence)
4) Was handed a physical eSim QR code to scan “in one hour”
5) Scanned eSim QR code in ten minutes (hey) and everything worked seamlessly
6) Profit:

Out of all th SP's, Telkom seems to actually train their staff on eSIM's. Vodacom, MTN & Cell C its such an effort, but Telkom is on point

Vodacom couldn’t even get the eSim working in my Apple Watch for two weeks. Talk about a struggle. So yeah, Telkom definitely takes the win here.

Spoiler: 14 Pro Max wins despite having half the RAM…

I’m shocked at how badly the Pixel 7 Pro does here given that it’s running stock Google Android.

I don't think Google runs pure pure stock anymore but yes, it's the closest phone on the market to stock android.

For years the Pixels never ever outright excelled in any real area. It was always about the ”software experience”.
Having said running a so-so bespoke SOC it should have performed better.

Anyone have issues with YouTube either not working completely or stuttering on iOS 16.1?

I had this issue on iOS 16 but seems a lot worse now.

Have to restart the phone completely to get anything g working again.

I’ve not updated my phone to 16.1 yet but I noticed on iPadOS 16.1 when using YT PiP & I go back to the video it like glitches & briefly shows the dock. Nothing serious just visually slightly off.

I’ve had no stuttering or issues you’ve described though.

Not seen a problem on either iPad Pro or iPhone 14 Pro using YouTube.

Really don’t want to reinstall iOS 16.
This is basically what I’m getting a few times a day.

Internet connectivity is fine and Netflix etc all work fine. Just YouTube.

See I’m not the only one though

That video export section was pretty funny. Pixel will likely do better after some updates, but that being said all these phones look fine, does anyone really keep so many apps open all the time?

Now if we're talking about power efficiency, then there is a clear winner.

Yup, I’ve got that twice recently on my iPhone 14 Pro Max on 16.1. Restarting the phone fixes it. It’s not ideal, but at least there’s a fix.

Good day ladies and gentlemen,

I will soon be in possession of an iPhone 14 Pro 256GB - Deep Purple.

Is there anyone interested in taking it off my hands or could you point me in the right direction.

Thanks

iOS 16 is a total sh*t show , must rate as one of the worst OS releases from Apple.

I'm holding off until a stable release before upgrading to iOS 16.

15.7.1 running super smooth on my 13 Pro
