Check out the OtterBox Core Series. They aren’t bulky like monster OtterBoxes, they’re 50% recycled if you care, and could be considered cute to some lol.

My wife has a white one in her 13 Mini and it looks like a jawbreaker. I just got a black one for my 14 Pro Max. The speckles are different on each case. They’re rubbery but not as sticky as silicone. They’re also not as flexible as a regular TPU/rubber case - when it’s off the phone, it doesn’t flex much. Great case so far.

FYI that case is only on OtterBoxes site and Apple.com from what I’ve seen. Also it looks like it currently has 2/5 stars on their site but the reviewers are just mad that they didn’t like the color options available?? So not a review on the actual product? Lol

Yep, the Android vs iPhone voicemail thing is nonsense.

I don’t know about this dude but I never forwarded phones or cheated or anything but there were times where I got tunnel vision at work and missed calls and replied to texts late. Also meetings. I also worked on the bottom floor where the signal was horrible and Wi-Fi calling had issues at work.

So yeah, no smoking gun here for sure.

I just got my 14PM a couple days ago and it weighs 60g more than my old OnePlus 8. It’s also wider. I honestly don’t notice it, the weight feels balanced to me. 🤷‍♂️

14 Pro Max on TMo Prepaid here. I’ve only had it for a couple days so far but I haven’t had any reception issues or anything. Transferring my physical SIM (from an Android phone) to eSIM required a phone call since I’m on prepaid but it was a quick painless call. No complaints!

My 14PM showed up today. Been tinkering with settings, apps, and the UI for hours. Took a couple quick photos that came out great, added my cards to Wallet, signed into all the things, etc.

It’s my first iPhone ever after using Android since the original Droid. So far it’s great. Getting used to the keyboard, notifications, lack of a consistent way to go back (top corner? swipe from the left? one app had an arrow on the bottom left…), and just general differences but so far I like it.

Curious, if that happens and the phone is otherwise new (not tied to any iCloud account for example), can it be used as an iPod essentially or does marking it stolen even prevent using it off of a cellular network?

Not trying to argue for keeping it or anything, just curious.
