Perfectly usable! You should have no issues with that phone for the next couple years for sure, and probably longer if you decide to keep it!

@@TheTCTech battery health is at 87 I can trade in for 15 pro max

Only if you feel like you want too, personally I don’t think there is enough difference between the 14PM and 15PM to justify spending more money. Especially with the 16 series coming up in the next 3-4 months.

Hi, thanks for your question. I would highly advise against using perfume. If you don’t have alcohol, you can also just use a slight damp microfiber to clean off surface residue without disinfecting it. Hope this helps.

@@TheTCTech i used perfume now my iPads keyboard has vague colour instead of the usual black So you know any way to fix this

@@rasslenys6525 I’m sorry, I don’t. I advised against using perfume because it could damage the material which it sounds like it did. Unfortunately seems like you may have stripped the color off the material. The only thing you can really do is use something like a skin to cover it if it is plastic.

Heya, thanks for your comment. I’ve been browsing the Canon Sub-Reddit and it’s been a very recent change unfortunately. About one/two weeks ago they changed their policy, but some people are able to stack it depending on the rep. It’s really unfortunate because you could get some really crazy deals directly from Canon like this. Hope you’ll be able to find someone willing to stack it, some of the deals they have right now are crazy!

Thanks for watching, I’m glad you enjoyed the review! It’s really interesting you have a battery health of 87%, my 13 Pro Max has been at 87% for about 9 months now. There’s definitely something good about the battery in this phone, even coconut battery reports about 90% health after almost 700 cycles on my battery. I did a battery test the other day and managed to get 9 hours of screen on time out of my 13PM even without using any low power mode. Still a great phone today for sure!

Mine was at 95 then iOS 17 happened and it kept on dropping but since it dropped to 89% it has dropped slowly now. How do you get coconut battery? From App Store? Yeah same I’m getting about 8-10 hours of sot depending on usage. I love my 13pm. Will it update until they bring back the physical sim.

@@Food-is_Life ah, that makes sense. Coconut battery is a desktop app, I have it on my Mac. It’s really cool because I can see the cycle counts, and even manufacturer date for some devices and batteries.

@@TheTCTech I can download that on a Mac?

@@Food-is_Life yes! Just search for coconut battery on google and there should be the website for it.

If you can, checking screen on time is a good gauge to see how healthy the battery is as well. My 13 Pro Max has 87% battery health and has been stuck there for months, battery still gets me through the day but can go a little fast between 100-70% I’ve noticed.

Oh shoot, your blood oxygen app is gone? I’m curious, what does your model number end with? Mine is MREW3LL/A, the ones with the blood oxygen sensor disabled end with LW/A. I’m still at 100% on mine as well!

@@TheTCTech never mind I was just scrolling too faat, I saw the blood oxygen app while scrolling settings. My model number is MRF53LL/A

Ah, that’s good haha! Yes, any that end with LL/A are the original ones that have blood oxygen enabled. :)

Hey there! Thank you so much for watching and for subscribing, I really appreciate it, I apologize it took me a while to get back to you here but I do read every comment! I don’t know if I’ll be able to make a video on it anytime soon, but I do have a text tutorial if this would help: I basically took measurements of the switch dock, used a white pillowcase and traced the measurements onto it, but gave it an extra 2cm on each side. I cut off where I traced, you should get a rectangle shape. Then I used a plastic sheet, you can find them at Walmart, Joaan’s, or Micheal’s. I used the same measurements from before, except I didn’t add an extra 2cm, and got a smaller rectangle from the plastic. I folded the pillowcase I cut onto the plastic and used a sewing machine to sew the edges, leaving the bottom open. Once the edges are sewn, you should be able to try it on your switch dock! If you have any other questions, feel free to reach out. I don’t always get notified of every comment unfortunately, but I’ll keep an eye out if you have any other questions! Thanks again! 👋😌

@@TheTCTech Thank you so much. One day I’ll do it!

Hello, thanks for your question! Yes, I use laundry detergent, I typically use Tide. I also have an updated version of this video on my channel that answers most of the FAQ’s that you mind find helpful. :)

Honestly, don’t blame you, it’s still a good phone!

Much appreciated! Will do!

Hi there, thanks for your comment! If you’re asking about software support for the 11PM, I believe it should have at least another major software update (iOS 18) this fall, however I can see Apple restricting some of the rumored AI features to the newer iPhones. That being said, I haven’t really noticed any real slowdowns with my 11PM and I’m running the latest iOS version on it currently.

@@TheTCTech hey man thanks for replaying and i really appreciate it, i'm going to buy one and lately i heard people saying that the 11pm battery will be nerfed and it will get low very fast also it will gets slower i really wanna know if that was true or not cuz it's the phone that i will buy after all and i want to say thx again and i liked the channel.

@@noalios8354 thanks! I appreciate it. Honestly just try to get one with good battery health, like 92-100% and you should be fine. It does like 90% of what my 13 Pro Max does, the biggest difference to me being the 120hz display, but performance wise, they’re both really similar. Hope you enjoy it!

In my humble opinion, I believe the 11 Pro Max still has at least three good years left in it before Apple stop support. It may not receive all the latest features yet I do believe it’ll still function as a phone and social media.

Hi there, thanks for watching and for your comment! It really depends on your use case and how long you think you’re going to use your phone for. I would definitely check out battery health too since you’re buying used, and try to price the difference between the 13PM and 14P you’re comparing against. One area that the 13PM should be better is with battery since it is physically larger. I would argue that the camera changes aren’t that big of a deal, even with the 48MP sensor of the 14P. I still use my 13PM as my daily and don’t really see any reason to upgrade at the moment, so I think you’d be happy with it as well. Hope this helps you out some!

I used a rebel T3 for the upgrade program discount

Hey! Thanks for watching and for your comment, I really appreciate it. Hopefully I can get some more videos out soon too! :D

Thanks for the question! Yeah, that should be okay, especially if you’re in a rush and just want to clean it/make it smell fresh. I mostly just use dawn since it is pretty good with any stains and such. You should be good though!

@@TheTCTech thanks!! yeah i used it and it worked for me. thank you for the video

@@vincentmorgue5623 Glad it worked out! 😌

Hey there! Thank you for your comment! I’ve been wearing the ultra 2 for sleep tracking now for about 6-7 months and I got used to it after about the first two weeks. It’s more bulky than the regular Apple Watch, mostly because of the bezel sticking up. The weight of it is perfectly fine though and I never felt like it was heavy or anything. I would say it’s fairly comfy for sleep tracking, but it takes a little bit to get used to the bezel rubbing against things like your blanket or pillow. Hope this helps!

@@TheTCTech It does. Thank you for the detailed review and for answering my question.

Hi! Thanks for watching and your comment, I really appreciate it! I’m real glad to hear you’re also enjoying your Apple Watch Ultra 2, I still use mine daily as well and it’s been fantastic. I agree, the design is really nice and sturdy. You won’t have any issues with scratches either, I’ve yet to put a scratch on the display even after having it for around 6 months. And the battery is still holding really well, I can manage about 2 and a half days with AOD on and sleep tracking, so they really fixed so many of the issues I had with the regular Apple Watch. Hope that you continue to enjoy your Apple Watch Ultra 2! :)

Who needs punctuation amirite

Hey there! Thanks a lot for watching and for your comment, I appreciate it c: It’s really frustrating because the 2018 iPad Pro is actually a fantastic device that gets bottlenecked by a problem Apple continues to perpetuate out of greed imo. It’s the same issue we see with each the base model MacBook Air having 8gbs of ram which is pretty inexcusable in 2024. It’s more infuriating considering the 6GBs of ram that the 1TB model gets often proves that having 4 is simply not enough to keep up today with more “professional” tasks. This video took about 6 times to export until I could find a setting that would work without running out of ram. Ended up being 1080P at 30mbps which wasn’t the ideal export settings I was hoping for. It’s interesting you mentioned the speakers were barely louder than the 2015 pro though, I would have thought them to be much better. I came from the smaller iPad pros, the 10.5 and 9.7, so I was used to the smaller speakers too, but the 2018 pro speakers have definitely been some of the best I’ve used on a tablet, so far. It makes sense the newer iPad pros with the thicker design though would allow for a much better speaker experience. Overall though, I’m glad I’m not the only one who shares the experience with the ram issues the 2018 iPad pros have. It’s just really sad considering how good they actually still are today, but I think the newer iPad pros now with the M series chips and starting with 8GBs of ram standard will hold up infinitely better.

@@TheTCTech Yeah I have the 9.7 too (still, could not sell it because of a screen issue) and the 12.9 is definitely louder, while the difference with the 10.5 and 11 is minimal (I have them all). You said in the video that iPadOS cannot take advantage of M1/M2 and yes CPU is overkill, but RAM is not, so in a way M1/2 are now necessary.... If this A12X had 8GB RAM there would be little need for M1 and it could run an external monitor with 8 apps with no issues. Fortunately with M series now iPads air and pro are much more future proof because of RAM and can be perfectly fine till the last supported OS and even beyond (at that point only battery could be the bottleneck, with Apple refusing to service it most of the time)

@@_Digitalguy yes, you pretty much touched all the points and feelings I have about the iPad Pro and its current OS situation with the ram it has. Obviously the chipsets are overkill for what the iPad is, so I really believe they need to make big moves to make iPadOS just as good as the chipsets they’re using now. The extra ram and speed will definitely make a difference in the M1 and M2 iPad pros for sure, and especially having that amount of ram. Even the iPhone 15 Pro finally switched to 8gbs this year, so I think we’re (hopefully) going to start to see 8gbs as the minimum for their “pro” mobile devices and tablets which should make a huge difference for longevity and support. As for battery, that’s one area that’ll be interesting to see as these devices become obsolete by apple’s standards. I had the battery replaced on the 9.7” pro back in 2021 by Apple and they just switch the whole device. Apparently if they don’t have the exact spec of your device in stock though, they sometimes switch it with the next generation model, so that could be a route they take with these iPads battery replacements possibly.

Hi! Thanks for your comment. In my usage, I haven’t had any problems with lines on any of my iPhone screens, including my 13PM. The chances of getting lines on the display goes up exponentially with dropping the phone and exposing to extreme heat or water, so I would keep the phone in a case. I’ve used the 13 Pro Max in extreme heat though (120+ °F) and haven’t had any issues other than the screen dimming since the phone was getting too hot. Hope this helps!

Do you know what could have caused the scuffs? I personally don’t have scuffs, but if it’s dirt, it should come off with the method I showed here. If it’s scuffs like scratches, you might be out of luck unfortunately :(. Best suggestion would be a magic eraser or something that is slightly abrasive to “sand down” the scratches if they are deep, but even then this is a bit of a dangerous approach as it might damage the soft touch finish they apply to the controllers.

Hope you enjoy it! Plenty of games for it used today.

Hi, thanks for your comment! Just wanted to say that night mode sorta works in a hacky way in the 2x mode because it’s actually a digital crop from the 1x lens in order to use night mode. You can actually test this by blocking the telephoto camera and taking a night mode photo at 2x. It will still take the photo because it’s using the 1x and up scaling a digital crop. Apple changes the EXIF data to make it appear that it uses the 2x camera, but it is actually using the 1x. Hope this helps! :)

@@TheTCTech Wow i just now tested it and its true :)) I thought that night mode works on both telephoto and main lenses but no. Also one interesting thing that I noticed testing what you said is that whenever you get close to something while on 2x it will automatically switch to 1x lens and when facing the camera to a further away object it will automatically switch to 2x. But if you hold your finger over the main camera it will switch to main camera!

@@antonioZaRasFiNaLbOsS haha how weird! It’s funny how the whole camera system decides which one is best to use. Thanks for the investigation, lots of insight here!

Hi there, thanks for your comment! The 13 Pro Max is perfectly usable today, but if you want an extra year of support, the 14 Pro Max should have that. What do you typically use on your phone the most? If it’s the camera, you might benefit from the 48MP sensor on the 14PM. Both of them are pretty similar honestly though, if you’re trying to save money, the 13PM isn’t bad at all. Just make sure the battery health is good if you’re buying used.

@@TheTCTech oh okay I think I’ll get 14 pm if it’s brand new else 13 pm

@@GamerAgentYT probably a good plan! Either phone should serve you well, you’ll really enjoy the 120hz too!

@@TheTCTech yeah that 120hz will definitely will be a big upgrade for me

Thank you very much! I’m glad you enjoyed it, I really appreciate your comment and support! 😊

Thank you! Glad you found it useful 😊

Hey there, thanks for the question. There’s a couple leather cleaners I like, I use the Coach one as well as the chemical guys leather cleaner. The Coach one is more liquidly while the chemical guys comes in a spray. I usually follow up with a conditioner as added protection, since it contains vitamin E and moisturizers for the leather to keep it supple. It’s hard to recommend not to do a leather cleaner and conditioner since you run the risk of damaging the leather using something not made for leather specifically (such as all purpose cleaners). You could also try Meguiars, their products are pretty good. Leather honey is another brand that sells cleaner and conditioner that doesn’t contain harsh chemicals if that’s something you’re interested in. Hope this helps!

@@TheTCTech Thank you so much for Your help...now I will use Coach to clean my phone.🙃

Hello! Thanks for commenting! Coming from a XR to a 13PM is a huge change, I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised by how many upgrades there are :)

Hey there! Thanks for the comment. 90% isn’t too bad, I was at 91% when I first got my 13PM and I’ve been at 87% now for about a year, so it’s not a super fast degradation. Really depends on the price of the phone as well, if it’s a good deal, 90% shouldn’t be bad at all. Look at how long you can usually get with screen on time as well, that’ll be a good gauge for actual battery usability. Hope this helps!

Is the Amazon Premium renewed any better than just regular excellent condition

Completely understandable, it’s way lighter too which is a nice bonus. Hope the 15 Pro treats you well!

It’s a pretty great phone today still, honestly there’s no issues with using one! 13 mini is an awesome form factor for sure though, and the last the mini series so it could become a collectible!

Hey bro I want to buy the exact same thing iPhone 13 Pro Max Renewed on Amazon what was the battery health percentage of yours and if possible which seller would you recommend

@@bernarddrenzcampbell2757 hey.. it has 92 percent battery health and works perfect, condition was 8/10... a couple little nicks. The company on amazon was DirectCertified. With the 90 day return window I didn't feel any pressure when I bought it.

Fair enough! I just felt like having polished chamfered edges on the bezel of the ultra was a bit of an odd choice since it takes the brunt of the hits as a protective guard for the display. Although it could just be from the process of shaving the titanium that causes that polished edge as well. The lightness of the ultra is surprising honestly! But I think the titanium does a really great job of having such a light weight for the size of the watch for sure. Glad to hear you like your trail loop!

Yup! It’s incredible what you can find there! Also check out clearance if they have one, sometimes they will have the genuine Apple Watch bands there as well for as low at $10 each, it’s crazy.

Hope it helps you out! If you’re looking at any of their stuff right now, this would probably be a good time to buy since the extra promotional discounts ends on the 14th so you can save more money. :)

Hey there, thanks for your comment! I believe the new modern buckle bands are the fine woven material correct? From what I’ve seen online for a while now, unfortunately the fine woven material seems to be the least resistant material Apple has used on any of their accessories. :( I would be hesitant using anything like water or soap directly or anything hard that might scratch or damage the micro-twill. Here is what apple’s website states on how to clean fine woven material: “To clean your FineWoven iPhone case or reduce the appearance of scratches, first remove your iPhone from the case. In a clean container, mix 1 tsp. (5 mL) of liquid laundry detergent into 1 cup (250 mL) of water. Dip a lint-free cloth into the soapy water solution, wring it out slightly, and rub the cloth on the case surfaces gently for 1 minute. Wipe the case clean with a separate cloth that's slightly dampened with fresh water. Dry the case with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth, making sure to remove any excess moisture. The material may look different and show wear over time as the fibers get compressed with normal use. Some scratches may diminish over time.” Hope this helps you out if you decide to try it!

@@TheTCTech It's a really soft material kind of like suede, although I think they say it's a compressed recycled polyester? I used a small amount of rubbing alcohol on a cotton pad and that got it clean. It's definitely not a band for everyday since one time washing your hands could stain it. :( Thanks for your answer! 🙂

@@llwxn124 I’m glad to hear your method worked at least, definitely consider some other bands though if you’re going to wear your watch in any wet or dusty environments. I would say check out tjMaxx or Marshall’s if you have any nearby, you can usually find genuine Apple Watch bands there for like $17 :)

Thanks for your question. Fabric softener can clog the fabrics, it gets stuck into the fibers making it harder to wash out. Hope this helps!

For sure! Hope it helps you out dude! And yay! Don’t worry full time furry, just separate rl me and furry me ;)

Honestly I felt the olive alpine loop doesn’t look as nice as the green alpine from last year, but it’s a matter of personal preference of course!

Hope that the series 4 treats you well, that’s a great price! My mom has been using mine since I upgraded to an Ultra 2, been perfectly fine! Thank you! Apple does different designs each year for the pride bands, if you have TJMaxx or Marshalls, you can sometimes find them significantly cheaper than MSRP (like $15-20 versus $50). Just a heads up! :)

@@TheTCTech We have a TJ Maxx and a Five Below in town. I've gotten pride stuff there before so I'll definitely be on the look out. One of the best things about apple products seems to be that everyone and their mother makes things for them. lol

Yes, if you size up, it will cover the loops. This was fine by me because I prefer it to have the thicker look and it cushions your wrist more. The ocean band looks bulky to me, but it comes down to personal preference. I don’t have an ocean band to compare too, but it’s my least favorite design with the three kinds that the Ultra has. That being said, if you like it, you should go for it! I went with Indigo for my alpine loop and don’t regret my decision. It’s a really nice deep purple and looks great. The international orange is always another great color of course, and the original green color they had looks good too, I’m thinking about getting one of them. Hope this helps!

Which one u thinking of getting? @@TheTCTech

@@brucelin5842 thinking about getting a green alpine loop, not to be confused with the olive color though! Theres a couple listings on eBay or target has the OG ultra bands for sale for $75 each. There’s also options for fakes on aliexpress and the like, but none that come in the size I need.

@@TheTCTech r u getting the green alpine original from Apple?

@@brucelin5842 yeah I’m thinking about it, there’s a listing on eBay for a genuine one I’m watching for bidding on.

Thanks for the comment! Glad it worked for you! 👌☺️

Hello there! Thank you for your question, I used isopropyl alcohol in the video, I would recommend 70%. Screen cleaner might work, but be careful if it contains ammonia as that may varnish the paint finish on the joycons.

I have a 180mm wrist and the large size alpine loop goes almost all the way around, with around 4 loops space left. For me, that was perfect since it won’t have the hook on the bottom where it can scratching things if your wrist is resting on a surface. So I think the large would fit you perfectly. The alpine loop can scratch the watch if you’re not careful when taking off the watch, the hook can potentially hit the display or titanium and leave a mark. Personally this hasn’t been an issue for me, but I’m careful when removing the watch from my wrist as well. The alpine loops comfort and overall stability is worth the little inconvenience when removing and putting it on to me though!

@@TheTCTech Also when you put your wrist into the band , it might squeeze the g hook to the edge of the titanium casing of the Watch, so maybe it’s better to get the size a bit bigger hey? But I’m worried will it affect the heart rate accuracy? Do u have to put the Watch one finger away from your wrist bone to get the accurate heart rate reading?

Good question. I honestly don’t notice much difference at all when putting the watch higher or lower on the wrist, so it should work as long as it is tight.

For real? If that’s the case, that’s definitely the buy of the year 👀 I know target just released a deal on the og ultra watch bands, but a bogo deal for the watch sounds incredible. Seems like they’ll sell pretty quick though.

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! c:
