    Okay, if you point them out I can find them with a little effort.

    I thought jar-jar was shrek but wasn’t convinced.

    I can see Peter Griffen now you say that. Not watched much of him. Only need to watch four episodes and you know all the jokes they’ll ever use. 🤣😏

    It’s been a few years since I was inside iPhones regularly but back then… All of them had a physical antenna or two which plugged into a board on a little coax connection.

    Unplug those, no reception, phone just assumes it’s in a dead zone.

    WiFi would still work if enabled. Which probably means they could find you via WiFi even if switched off in the current world



  • Yeah, back when i was fixing phones for a living, people would ask me what the best brands were. I’d reply “don’t ask me, I only see the broken ones. Could be millions of happy ones out there I’ll never meet”

    I do worry about the difficulty of the repair too. I wonder if it would be harder, or just use my existing skills and take me longer. Used to be able to do an iPhone screen in ten or fifteen minutes!

    I don’t do a lot of gaming on my phone, but the little I do is cool on the big screen. It’s lovely to be able to see the whole email at once or when looking at a whole document.

    I always had the big big screen phones before this, so in some ways it’s a smaller phone for my pocket, without sacrificing screen size. Great for web pages, really lovely when online shopping and such.

    And my eyesight isn’t what it used to be!

    But in the end, if I’m really honest, I got it because it’s flashy gadget tech. And I love that. So long as I can make it my own, add my own launcher and run Tasker, I’ll suffer the odd little proprietary nonsense, and disable every piece of Bloatware I can.

    But to have Graphene! I wonder if it would work with the bank apps?
