Due to my frustration with what appears to be a completely disintegrated life cycle for each iPhone where is my first iPhone 4 lasted until I got an iPhone 7 that was about 7 years and then my iPhone 7 lasted for about 4 years until I got an iPhone 13 and then within two years the phone is slow in ways it doesn't need to be and then I started looking into taking my stuff off of iCloud and I found all these like roadblocks and hurdles to get over to just get access to my files like they'll give you access to them but you won't like be able to get them in any convenient way that you would expect for a service that you paid for on a monthly basis for over a decade you'd think it could be like a one click it done in thing or you could actually maybe even just hook up your
external hard drive and hit a button and it just transfers but no you're going to get like a link to all these files and it's going to you have to download 30 of them and each one will have varying success on whether you're able to download it without the download canceling on you all this is quite frustrating
So I started looking at phones in the Android ecosystem and I settled on some of the offerings from Chinese manufacturers who make this segment of phone called rugged phones and these phones have battery life and exceedance of 20,000 mAh whereas an iPhone is like less than 5000 mAh so my phone lasts like about a week per charge, and I have no range anxiety about needing to bring my charger with me everywhere I go this is convenient but then there's all these things that I took for granted with my iPhone where it's like all these programs on there are quite seamless in the camera doesn't like hiccup and stutter and take like 5 seconds to open or just an extra 3 to 4 seconds to process each picture taken or weird sloppy zooming
So now I am looking at the iPhone 16 features and I see ChatGPT will be built right in
For years the iPhone has been marketed for like photographers and and videographers are sold on this idea that they can make a whole movie within cinematic quality just for their phone and I'm wondering when other realms of creatives will be accounted for like when will an iPhone be able to truly replace the need for recording studio when will there be like a seamless digital audio workstation built in a microphone that rivals the Sony c800g
Anyways I guess this time is basically like a iPhone tolerance break and I will soon be back into getting another iPhone but I just feel like they could definitely offer a very high quality microphone or like a fraction of what it would take to improve the camera continuously
