The Mobile Phone thread.

did the latest iphone update over the weekend, I like the changes.
Couple of mobile contracts were due to re sign, got 2 i12 pro max's 5g coming.

recieved the 2 ipro max mobiles not long ago.
same as my 11 pro max size wise but square sided.
Now what bugs me about these type of companies today is how much they keep reducing what they once incl to increase their profit..
Like before, delete the supplied ear plug lead to no, we've redesigned now you have to buy the "beads" OR you get the lead adaptor to still use previous ones supplied.
Next in the i11 the plug going into the socket morphed to double the size - I suppose the amount of heat generated whilst charging brought that change (how many of these things have you in draws over the years eh !) BUT now with this i12, all they supply is the lead and NO elect plug socket ! AND they have changed the power lead end from the USB style to that smaller curved one side plug like some other brands and other devices have I've seen over the years.
Like wtf, wish I could do this in my Industry, - I get the less is more but this is ridiculous, its like selling tyres Randel but from here on your going to charge the consumer heaps for the plastic valve cap ends for eg lol......
Oh the modern times, how do I rip consumers off, as long as people keep buying you can keep getting away with it I guess.
Yes my fault lol, but I can't fathom a change of brands, been a apple user since its start like I was with nokia originally.
My vent but in the end I like my iphones now I got to get to a JB or Apple store and buy a efffing plug so I can charge my $2 bloody k + mobile lol.....

OK - havig sent a email to my account manager explaining re the charge cable, they agreed on apple not supplying a wall block as its called, I'm told my i11 block will work with this i12 cable, I shall see once home.
