I forgot which phone company did it, I remember them dropping the feature after a generation, but one of their phones was advertised to lock the screen if it detects a second pair of eyes were peeping into the screen, like someone behind you looking over your shoulders.

You’re right, I confused my iPod touch 64Gb with the 4. The 4S was the first iPhone to offer 64Gb of storage.

Multiple profiles. Bar that, then at least multiple instances of apps, so say I could login to two different accounts of the same app at the same time.

Transcribed voice memos.

External storage photo capture of any format, not just ProRes log.

Love the high refresh rate display, makes my old 13 look feel sluggish even though it’s perfectly fine performance wise.

I have a minor grip with the camera though. When I’m taking a 5x picture of something not too far away, the camera app with automatically switch to the telephoto lens with no way to manually set it to the 5x lens again. I was taking a picture of an orchid in our balcony that grew quite a lengths away and was apparently around the distance threshold for the automatic switching, as some shots managed to be taken by the 5x lens and they looked great, but most of the shots were in the telephoto lens and was way worse.

Also the lens switching when zooming in or out during a video isn’t as smooth as most reviewers made it out to be. The lens switch is still very noticeable.

I just tested it with the other steaming services I have.

Netflix, HBO, Prime Video, Apple TV+ all casted the shows no problem. It played the video only on the monitor, leaving playback control on the phone screen.

I’m using the Philippines version of these apps, some will be the same as the global build, some like HBO is a local variant operated by a third party, so your mileage may vary.

It was just a curiosity for me. I’m perfectly content to just watch videos on my phone, but I wanted to see if it’s feasible to mirror it to my wired only monitor in the off chance I want to watch in a bigger screen.

My guess is streaming services don’t like screen mirroring, which is what Apple does with iOS. A solution for iOS would be to introduce screen extending with iOS like Samsung does with Dex, so it’s not simply mirroring the screen anymore.

Nearly impossible to make screen cap memes of shows with these new streaming apps.

Has any of their external keyboards ever been backlit?
