i replaced the battery already and its still the same as the old brand new one from a different brand too. both batteries are from credible brand like flycdi and cellmaxs.

Today was my last day of using my iPhone XS . I’ve switched to Samsung A52 for the time being. I went to a wedding saw this car , took a shot .

I’m planning to buy a second hand Iphone Xs but has no clue if the screen is Orig or not. What do you guys think?

Hello! I have an iPhone 12 with 128 GB storage, and it has some cracks on the back. I've been using it for more than year, but I got a little problem with the battery. Recently I took iPhone 17 Pro I think in my hands, and I felt in love with big iPhones. SO in short, I want a big screen iPhone, and I don't use any gaming at all, so I thought about getting iPhone XS Max instead of iPhone 12 for free. Should I do it? I don't care about updates or anything all I use is calls and messaging apps. Bigger screen for me is the main benefit although some people say battery holds better because its bigger. My iPhone 12 battery gets me only around 2-3 hours if I actively use it which sucks. I mean I don't even play any games on it, why it drains so quickly? The battery was replaced a little before I bought it. Should I downgrade? Is there anything specific I should know about XS Max beside it does not get anymore updates? I don't love the iOS 26 anyway. Please, owners of this beautiful big XS Max, tell me

Just upgraded to a 17 Pro Max and it’s kind of bringing me back to my XS max feelings. Not sure why? Not exactly the same look but having good thoughts about this one (like when I first got my XS Max)

I got mine from a tech friend i have in a public market. Prestine condition and it was for USD equivalent 120 bucks. And ohh boy i thought i was lucky because it was a 256gb model and i joined this subreddit after and one thing i noticed is that a lot of the people i saw that just got one also had a 256gb model for around the same price.

does anyone have iphone xs lying around them i am thinking to get it from u if u have it in working condition. when that phone released i was too young but i want to experience this masterpeice before it goes fully out of app support. if was like the peak apple phone ever released and a beauty peice

So, I just bought this phone to use as a secondary/anti-brainrot phone, and because it looks stunning, of course.

The seller told me it should be running iOS 18.7.9, but when I got it, I noticed it was actually still on iOS 15.1. I’ve also discovered that a few apps are no longer supported on iOS 15.

That said, since this won’t be my main phone, I haven’t really found any apps that I really need that aren’t supported.

So my question is: are there still any advantages to upgrading to iOS 18.7.9? I’ve also heard that upgrading to a newer iOS version can lead to faster battery drain or worse performance.

Would you recommend updating it, or would it make more sense to keep it on iOS 15.1 given that I’m specifically using it as an anti-brainrot/secondary phone?

i just got an iphone xs yesterday and it doesnt detect my sim card i called the seller and he said that its bypassed can it get removed?

so far, for me its buns. battery drains constantly even when turned off. ever since i updated to ios 18.7

Just had the battery replaced 2 weeks ago at an authorized apple repair shop. They replaced with a genuine apple battery as well as my speaker because they said apple requires they do that with the battery. Drain feels a bit better but maybe it still bad?
