The amount of people that have never looked into their phone’s settings always surprises me. Most of my friends don’t know even the basic stuff of their phone, they just use it out of the box and text and browse social media and that’s it.
The camera re newed?
What a waste of bandwidth doing this video. You like iPhone stick with it but your review or whatever you call it makes zero freaking sense
Also Apple calendar 📅 with reminders is a game changer and Apple calendar is so much better visually 😊
I just moved ever to Google and I switch back after a day my battery drained like crazy my Apple Watch ⌚️ puts died so fast. Apple just works and it’s easier to be all iOS it just makes more sense. Also find my with my kid and wife it just makes so much more sense I am done trying to move around. This video really helped me. ❤🤙❤️⚡️⚡️⚡️

Are the magnets strong enough to attach the phone to say a fridge or a stainless steel refrigerator?
Hi, I had to stop with macbooks after ForceTouch trackpads. I generate excess static (always have) and the forcetouch pad goes mad when I touch it. The staff in the Apple shop just could not understand why the mouse jumper crazily and unpredictably when I did the most simple of tasks. They tried many different settings, and after an hour, they suggested I used an external mouse. I did not buy a Macbook. I shall stick with my 2015 MBA.
Moraleja si sufres QCD no lo hagas 😂😂😂😂😂
Sounds to me like this was either Amazon or the refurbisher sending out the wrong product. You ordered a good, sounds like they sent out an acceptable, or maybe even this was a return that got accidentally sent to you. IOW I suspect this was a shipping error and not a deliberate scam. But you are right, buying refurbished is kind of Hit or Miss. Amazon usually gives you 90 days to return or exchange it, which is 3 times longer than back market and others. I've gotten several dogs from refurbishers which I had to send back. OTOH I just bought a 13 mini from back market and it is undistinguishable from a new product. No signs of use whatsoever, 100% battery health 512Gb, $500. Hit or miss...
I don't agree with you. The display looks great, for all daily tasks (web, mail, word, PowerPoint etc) it's perfect. Also you can add boot camp assistant and add Windows.
Bought 2 I phones from Amazon Renewed. Absolutely no issues at all..
That’s why Amazon refurbished sucks Apple is much better to get it from bro
yes but apple sell them for a shit price you might aswell get a new one with their ptice3
Can't find the mini on Apple's refurbished site.
@@tactiscope ya you not wrong on the price
@@madisonsinclair5123 oh they come back in Refurbished Apple Shop
@@tactiscope fr tho is better but price is hella high still but is very good quality tho by Apple
Thanks for this video, it helped me makeup my mind on staying put with IPHONE.
All my friends you message app and not What’s app
True
I feel your pain.
My problem is, I have a Apple Card, and u have to pay through the wallet app, so I’m not sure of me switching and I’ve bought a lot of music, movies and apps, that would be hard to walk away from.
planning to install linux mint xfce on 2015 early air
I just got the slim without the stand and it gets in the way of the main camera, if the thing closing it is not pulled down well. That is a bummer.
This comment section shows the problem with Android vs iPhone. Most of them are just assholes. Tried switching to Samsung, I got too many things going on and kids to sit there and setup a phone for months. iPhone you just sign into a new one and everything moves. Move MFA to the new phone and you’re done. Can’t beat that.
Loveitt!! You need a video editor bro ? I can do a sample video:)
I’m kind of in the same boat- business owner, heavily invested in the Apple ecosystem and I’ve been looking at videos etc for weeks trying to decide if switching is worth it - and if I was an average guy doing basic stuff - the switch makes total sense. But now I’m trying to figure out can I still some of the Apple ecosystem and mix in the 24 ultra and ultra watch to kind of begin the transition. I’m looking at all of the quality of life stuff to make sure it’s on par with my Apple experience - if so, I’m thinking I may take the plunge. :-) But I totally get where he’s coming from - as a business owner, it’s not just about the greatest hardware - you have to take into account the synergy of all of the products. It does add up to a certain experience and flow of doing life and business.
Yep. Wasted time is lost revenue. And it doesn’t gain you a whole lot when it comes down to it.
To me I use to be on a iPhone 13 and I had the 12 mini and uprgaded to the 13 then I upgraded to the 15 pro max and I thought it was hugeeeee and I even bought bulky bulky case and once I got use to it having to reach more it seems as if I don’t have to reach far anymore after I got use to using it everyday
The connector is called slim link
Well come with a category like a premium ,excellent an so on ... So when you order and make sure which one you choosing should be exactly the way you choose , I bought alots renewed saved hundreds of dollars and all of them came out great, but I never choose any items electronics or not less than the Excellent
I bought a good condition iphone 13 mini. I literally got a new phone with 100% battery. I couldn't believe it
Was this a renewed phone? Or a renewed premium?
It does work also when plug in to Audio mixer headphone jack then connected to wireless headphones? For live streaming singing live.? Using karaoke also via yt play on my iPad, and connect to Blutooth. I need my wireless Headphone to connect with AirFly Pro. Any opinion thank you . Watching from Germany 🇩🇪
Do renewed in amazon mean used
diddent here nothing about latency delay
So Handsome ❤
Smartswitch didn't work for me until I changed the iPhone setting to never autolock
Your voice exactly sounds like Adam Enfroy's lol
how do you know its from amazon and not a certified seller?
do you still get the start up steps like the new?
The video shopuld be titled "Buying an iPhone from Amazon Renewed Premium" as Amazon Renewed only offers 3 months warranty as cost less.
I have bought an amazon renewed iPhone 11 before. I am upgrading to a 14 from Amazon renewed soon and was wondering if any sellers sell fake iPhones and what to look out for!
Honestly buy from amazon renewed store not a third party seller
Pointless video.
2024 the 13 mini is double the price of the 12 mini.
To sum up the 23 minutes long video - as a 7 years of using Apple products, you didn't have the time and will to switch and find alternatives. That's fine, you're deep inside the walled garden.
Close. I couldn’t find the purpose in switching. I had the will and took the time to switch. But in the end, I gained essentially nothing and was attempting to fix something that wasn’t broken for me.
@@AlexVassiosOfficial I can understand you well, switching to a different player after investing time and effort on one player, and gain nothing, is something you wished you never did. But you made and now smarter about it. Personally, I'm a PC guy. macOS was fine, but like you said - everything is okay with Apple, but the integration of all services is what makes the experience. And I love Windows, and after 4 years of trying all of their products (2 iPhones, 3 Watches, 2 AirPods, 2 Apple TVs, 2 AirTags, iPad Pro M2 with MK), I'm tired of the experience. Thank you for the video, Alex. ♥
Honestly hate these tech reviewers giving biased opinions cause they’re sponsored by samsung and got the phone for free. You literally point out most of what I had issues with. I haven’t found a single “tech youtuber” that was honest until I found your channel..
That’s my issue with tech TH-cam as well and I’m trying to change that. Thanks for watching!
"i lost the ability to track my wife over five mile" hahaha bro you have way bigger issues than ios android :D

This video is confusing lol
Also iMessage messaging over WiFi is key 🔑 in remote areas like where you live probably
Exactly. If I'm outside in my yard I get no signal when my wifi disconnects. I use Starlink so inside the house the wifi is great. But otherwise the signal is spotty around here. iMessage is hugely helpful even if I have a little LTE or 3G signal and zero bars.
You bring up really good points I’m am totally bored with my iPhone but maybe it’s not worth the switch
Honestly I am too, but I think that’s a good thing. The technology has matured and stabilized to the point that boring = consistent. I found that through all the tweaking and setup on the Android side, I missed a lot of life in between because I was concerned about my phone. And when it was all setup the way I like it, it didn’t provide me much more value at all than if I hadn’t done the exercise in the first place. Just missed some time with the family in between, not worth it.
Yeah I think 🤔 your right consistency can be reliable but also boring and there will always be a shiny ✨ object like another new phone but we all got families and have to work and have to get shit done everyday and learning a new ecosystem is hard. I used to have Samsung Note phones back in the day and I really liked them but between the Apple Watch Ultra and the Tablet and the MacBook Pro the ecosystem is so strong 💪 it feels impossible to break away and at least I know how to do what I want on my phone without taking time away from my family to learn a whole other way of working which to be honest I don’t have the time. 😂 I really liked your video keep up the good work. 🤙⚡️💪
