  No be you go teach me phone business or talking about 13 pro max because you be dealer too. Which one is I don’t import the ones with original screen ? If you like buy 13 pro max from Apple Store by yourself, it’ll still hit the green screen if it’ll do. This is the general issue about the iPhone 13 Pro Max globally. This has nothing to do with refurbished or original stock. You’re the one probably buying a refurbished phone. I import my stock from Canada and USA directly from legit suppliers. Like I’ve said before, it is not all 13 pro max that do comes with the screen issue, because even the ones I sold from last 2 years to last year. The earliest complain I received from someone is after 8 months of usage. 13 pro also has screen issues, but the ones I sold to customers from my stocks has never had any screen issue up to date, but does that mean 13 pro also does not have screen issue? I don’t like it when vendors comes to manage and spit trash. Go and post it on your own page that iPhone 13 Pro Max doesn’t have screen issue at all then sell it out all.

  I was chatting with an elderly friend recently. She said her husband locked his iPhone in error. They went to the Apple store. They couldn’t unlock it. Rather than wipe it, start over, they insisted on selling him a new phone. @Apple

  @Ro_Exotic @SmallEyez @markgurman I’ve only used the Apple care with the IUP once, and the Apple Store tried dicking me around by saying damage wasn’t covered. Demanded ~$400 to fix. I raised hell until they realized policy literally says $99 deductible.

  A guy walked into an Apple Store to buy a MacBook Air. He walked out having spent $2,100 on a $999 laptop. He thought he made smart choices the whole time. His brother in law, who worked Apple retail for 9 years, watched the receipt and just shook his head. In the parking lot he said: "You didn't buy a laptop today. You bought seven upsells wrapped around a laptop. The storage tier. The AppleCare pitch. The trade in number. The 'while you're here' accessories. None of it is random. Every rep is trained to hit those seven moments in that order." He broke down 9 tricks Apple retail uses and the counter move for each one. Two months later the brother bought his own MacBook using the playbook. Same store. Same model. $760 less. Here's everything he said.

  @ProtonSupport Here’s what the proyon ai says. The operation couldn’t be completed. (Common networking.VpnApiService) Error error 0.) Once that was cleared then this popped up on trying to access the account “Invalid Refresh Token”. Proton support couldn’t get past that but did give me a web page to try to figure it out. I searched the forums and tried the sequential steps from the link given me until bed time. Next morning I removed the VPN file and reloaded a fresh file. I then got a message from Pay Pal ( I had made a purchase through the Apple store. ) So I immediately got connected to Pay Pal and showed them the files. She sent a file that showed I had been charged for a software I already had a paid contract for a year ago. I was told they would check out my info and get back to me. I got an auto email and the charge had gone through so it couldn’t be stopped. At that point I had no vpn on two lap-tops but still had proton mail on both. Awhile latter I received an email that Pay Pal would cover the refund that will take several days to show up. I have a Proton Plus that has Mail and VPN that Proton Ai immediately the blocked now 4 days ago they say because I filed a greviance. It won’t be addressed until July 5th. I have received NOTHING from proton? I suspect I’m not the only one that has run into this. Look through all your support tickets and fix them all not just mine that’s in the public.

  @Escargot4U @0x_Mattt The GME e-commerce issue was with regulation. Remember Gary Gendler was in charge at the time and heavy issues with the Apple Store. He was smart to scrub it back then. I think you’ll like Ryan. This guy picks up the phone and calls customers personally all the time.

  Swap 2: The $50 Apple Store screen protector installation replaced with an $8 Amazon 3-pack. He'd walked into the Apple Store 3 times across 3 iPhones and paid for their screen protector installation. $50 each time. An employee cleaned the screen, applied the protector using an alignment tool, and pressed out the bubbles. Total time: 4 minutes. The repair tech told him the screen protector Apple installs is 9H tempered glass. The same 9H tempered glass that sells in 3-packs on Amazon for $8. The "H" rating refers to the Mohs hardness scale. 9H is the industry standard for every screen protector on the market Apple's, Zagg's, Spigen's, and the unbranded Amazon listing. Same hardness. Same thickness. Same oleophobic coating. The Amazon 3-packs include the same alignment frame Apple uses in-store. Place it on the phone. Drop the protector. Press down. The frame guarantees perfect alignment. No skill required. No Apple Store appointment required. He'd paid $150 across 3 phones for a product that costs $2.67 per unit on Amazon with the same installation tool included free. Saved: $42.

  @MAGA_X_Times @udreams30 Yep. THAT’S the scam I expected from these ‘gift cards’. No accountability. No recourse. Just a chorus of “not our responsibility” and the theft of your cash. The scam is that thieves take many cards from the store’s rack to their ‘shop’… and carefully open them to steal the alphanumeric code inside. Then, they carefully put the ‘package’ back together, replace them on the store’s display rack and, wait for someone to load money on the card. Then they immediately load that balance into THEIR ‘account’ using the stolen code. Started with Apple Store cards then spread to all of them. There is NO SECURITY on these things. Whoever uses the code first… gets the cash. Merchants couldn’t care less. They get the money no matter what. So, there is ZERO motivation for them to fix the problem as addressing it would necessarily require them to ADMIT there IS a problem. So… the whole gift card thing is a scam from every angle. Unless you can purchase the card DIRECTLY at the actual merchant and verify the balance before leaving the store, your ‘gift’ will likely disappear before the recipient can use it. Even with these precautions, the cards cannot be left where just anyone can access them. They should be dispensed by a managerial type. It’s the only way.

  1/ Parents, we don’t have to choose between protecting our kids and protecting our privacy. Unrestricted smartphones should be treated like alcohol: 21 and older only. Nothing changes for adults. 2/ Here’s the part no one talks about: I cannot protect my child from what’s on their classmate’s phone. One unrestricted device and the whole group has access to the full adult internet. That’s the real problem we need to solve.3/ Privacy is the line between a person and a possession. A slave was property because someone else claimed the right to watch, record, control, permit, and deny his life. A free person requires privacy.4/ Some people say “if a liquor store can check an ID, so can the Apple Store.” That sounds simple… but it’s not the same thing. A liquor store checks you once, in person, for one item. Turning every app, website, and device into a permanent ID checkpoint creates a surveillance system for adults. That’s not protection — that’s control.5/ We all agree kids shouldn’t have unrestricted access to pornography, gambling, addictive feeds, and strangers. The easy fix is right in front of us: Stop handing children unrestricted adult-grade devices by default.6/ Make youth-safe electronics the standard for anyone under 21 — unless a parent is directly supervising. If a company wants its phone, app, or operating system in a child’s life, it should prove it belongs there. Adults keep buying and using whatever they want. No digital ID. No face scans. No adult internet passport.7/ This protects kids at the device level before they ever reach the adult internet. It keeps adults completely free. Privacy for grown-ups. Safety for kids. We can have both.8/ Parents — does this make sense? Drop a 🔥 if you agree we should protect children without forcing every adult to surrender their privacy. What’s the one thing that worries you most about kids and phones right now?

  @BeSovereign_1 @0xEthan No. iOS is inherently a problem as it require someone to KYC themself to publish on Apple store. You could compile a version yourself and side load it in theory.

  Bought an #iPhone17Pro from the official Apple Store, Borivali on 29 June using an HDFC credit card EMI. Two weeks later, the EMI still hasn’t been processed. HDFC says they never received the instructions. Apple Store says it’s HDFC’s issue. 1/2

  Just got an official Apple Store Keyboard with the fingerprint reader. The thing with Macbooks is that the moment you lose AppleCare for them and the keyboard breaks, there is ZERO way to fix said keyboard. (Hidden secret of Macbook keyboard explaining why in comments) So when at home use your peripherals you extend the life of your on-laptop keyboard when you obviously have to use it when traveling.

  @Smear_Sys @SThrober The issue is the length of the game. 2 hours for a game is a very low bar to hit. Even youtuber slop games like banban figured out how to hit the time limit. If your game is essentially a mobile game like flappy bird steam isn't the place for it, put it on apple store

  His Apple Watch battery health was 81% after wearing it for only 10 months. He charged it on his nightstand every night. Left it on the charger until morning. Used Always-On Display all day. Kept cellular turned on even when his iPhone was in his pocket. Ran GPS workouts 5 times a week without closing the session properly. He did everything most Apple Watch owners do. That was the problem. His friend, a former Apple Store technician, looked at his Battery Health screen and said one sentence: "You've been draining this thing twice as fast as it should drain. Apple built 2 features into watchOS that slow the damage to almost zero and you've never turned either one on." She toggled 2 settings. Changed one charging habit. Turned off one feature he didn't know was running. 4 months later his battery health hasn't dropped a single percent. It's been sitting at 81% since. Here's everything she changed 🧵
