It's been a while since they made a bold choice. When I bought an iPhone a couple years ago, even the apple store employee kinda shrugged his shoulders when I asked if the new 14 phone was better, besides the camera, than the cheaper 13.
- dghlsakjg 2y agoThe iPhone 14 added emergency satellite connectivity. That seems like a pretty big deal to me?

- alabastervlog 2y agoThis is me when I go to a state forest 20 minutes away, and about 2.5hrs drive from Manhattan. Anywhere with even a little elevation has abundant cell dead zones.
- dghlsakjg 2y agoIf you live west of the great plains, you will always hit dead zones if you ever leave the city, even on the major interstates you will hit dead zones. This is an incredibly nice feature to have for tens (hundreds?) of millions of people in the just the US, let alone other countries. (this may hold true in the east as well, I don't live there) Extrapolating your personal experience to all use cases is generally a bad idea.
