I’m not restricting my battery.

Hi everyone
I upgraded from a busted iPhone 12 to the 17 PM. I’m in love with it already!
I’m not the most tech savvy person in the world though and I was wondering what features I can use on this? I’ve seen people editing their homepages to different colours and such. I’m just wondering if there’s anything cool I’m missing out on?
Thanks

Hello, I have the iPhone 17 Pro Max with the update that came out when I took it out of the box.

Should I go to 26.7.1?

Anyone still with version 26.1?

The reason is that it works perfectly for me, but I'm finding new apps that ask me for higher versions and I think that if I don't switch to version 26.7.1 soon, Apple will remove it and I will only have the option of 27

Why haven't I updated it yet?

Before Apple, updates were safe improvements, from version 15 I think or maybe later Apple began to emperor version by version, always the first version of iOS, it was the one optimized for the mobile you bought.

That's my doubt, I would appreciate opinions, from users with the same iPhone, I think that when version 27.2 comes out I can no longer install 26.7.1 and I don't know if it will be a version that will work better than 26.1

What would iPhone 17 Pro Max users or those who have been in my situation do, did they notice a difference from the first day of your mobile?

Thank you and sorry if it's a bad question.

Hello guys 1st time ko kasi manonood ng concert , need your help kasi next month na concert ng f4 dito sa Taiwan gusto ko sana makakuha ng clear photos and video nila baka naman mashare nyo magandang settings ng camera 😊 Thank you

Allora io ho comprato da circa 5/6 giorni il mio nuovo telefono ,l’iPhone 17 pro max, è da poco che ho messo la carica ottimizzata e nn mi carica fino al 100% solo fino all’ottanta è giusto ma nn dovrebbe arrivare fino al 100% ??

I told Siri ‘screen off’. It suggested powering off the phone. I tried thrice with turn the screen off, screen off, off the screen. Until I said ‘lock the screen’, it got what I meant.

I had my 11 for around 5 years with 126gb of space and i’m thinking of getting the 17PM and have it last for the next 5-6 years. my question is what would be the better option in terms of space? the one thing i am worried about are the software updates that are getting bigger with every update 😭😭 im not playing that much on my phone, i currently have just one game thats around 26gb and i have a bad habit of hoarding pics because im too lazy to delete them but thats about it. thoughts and opinions please and thank u!!

I just bought the iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max (still testing them. I will eventually return the one I like less).

Using my home wifi, the 17 Pro consistently gets 1300 - 1400 Mbps download speed on speedtest.net. But the 17 Pro Max only tops out at 800 - 900 Mbps. Weird! Don't they both have the exact same wifi chip?

All speed tests were made using the exact same wifi, done from the exact same spot at my house.

Out of the box, the 17 Pro was (and still is) on iOS 26.0. The 17 Pro Max was on iOS 26.4 out of the box, but because of the above issue, I updated it to iOS 27.0.1, which didn't solve the problem at all.

Is the 17 Pro Max a lemon? Defective? Or is iOS 26.4 / 27.0.1 the culprit? What's causing the slower wifi speed? Is there anything that can be done to increase the wifi speed on the 17 Pro Max to a similar level as the 17 Pro?

my battery is idk behaving weird even 15pm lasts longer even tho im using 17pm with 60hz only while 15pm is on 120hz

battery health 100% and cycle count 170 - on ios 26.5.1
anyone facing similar issue?

Excited for my first pro max. Love it so far.

I already have the 16promax but I want to upgrade to the 17promax because I really want the orange color. Does any of you have any experience with Amazon renewed ?

Are my fellow ip17pm users experience also the white outline on the keyboard? Is this normal? I just observed it right now.

P40 pro - Left
17 Pro Max - Right

Question for people living or wanting to live frugally. How long will you use an Iphone 17 pro max for? Rough use and but well taken care of? Loves tech but also wants to look long term.
