Stupid Apple doesn't even have Apple intelligence in Europe yet. They are so late to every party and stupid idiots like me keep putting up with their mediocre innovation and speed.
I updated my old ipad 8th gen today and it looked quite yellow while booting and when i checked, it was exactly as i thought.. it got true tone feature when it dosent even have the hardware for it haha.. all it does is make the screen yellow even in bright white light
For those asking: "why is there a waitlist for Apple Intelligence?" The reason is because each phone has to download the Apple Intelligence models from Apple's servers. Apple is doing a gradual rollout of Apple Intelligence because they WANT to. It's not that they DON'T have the capacity to ship it to everybody at once, they clearly do. They're slowly rolling it out to make sure everything goes smoothly & no hiccups since this is their first public rollout of Apple Intelligence.
They were unprepared. They sold an unfinished product and weren't prepared for beta release (weird because they pushed it ahead of schedule). IMO - it's not a good look.
I don’t buy this reason at all. What’s your source? Apple’s servers can handle tens of millions of people downloading the 8 gig + iOS update on demand with no queues, but queue up a few extra gigs per person for some AI models and all of a sudden that’s too much?
@@bass-tones iOS updates likely come from different servers (with significantly more bandwidth) and plus they've been doing that for many years. Apple Intelligence likely has a MUCH smaller pool of servers, plus it's new & they don't want to chance it.
Updated to iOS 18.1 on my iPhone 12, and I did notice a lot of improvements on the performance! Opening and closing apps definitely feels less choppy than the previous version of iOS 18! Keep up the great videos you create, Brandon! 🔥
It is incredible that Apple does not include the magic eraser in the 14 pro models. I am seriously offended. It makes me want to never buy Apple products again and not support planned obselence anymore.
@@jameglittlejohn8585literally! I’ve been on the beta so I’ve been able to have access for a while, but having to wait on that waitlist was a long time.
2:03 - you don’t have to do haptic press. The principal is the same as in App Library. And the same with AirDrop - you don’t have to make haptic press for that button in the control center.
My phone has become useless the first week after iOS 18. I have been on the support chats all week. Uninstalling and reinstalling apps. It’s been a real disaster. I hope updating will fix some of my issues, but the pros do not outweigh the cons for me at this point. Thanks for your clear videos, always!
Fixed my issue with taking RAW images in low light. They would show up in the thumbnail and than disappeared and had a black picture, it would also not even upload them to the cloud. This 18.1 fixed that issue so I’m happy about it.
So is the new Siri animation only for IPhone 15 / 16? Currently running iOS 18.1 and I still have the old Siri bubble animation. I get that I won’t get Apple Intelligence but even the animation is locked for the newer phones?
You can add it either as a Lock Screen widget (had it since the first iOS 18 official release, not sure if it was available before), and you can now also add an alarm widget to your control centre (also not sure if it was available before, just noticed it)

Hey Brandon, have you heard any complaints from 16 pro/pro max users about reduced sensitivity with the touch screen, including lots of areas of the screen occasionally being unresponsive to touch? I was hoping apple would address it in the 18.1 update, but I guess not.
