Thank for keeping your video short and and to the point, I think a lot of us on KZread are getting fed up with watching other reviewers take 10 to 15 minutes to say the same information you just provided in less than 4 minutes. I’ll subscribe to your channel just for those reasons, thank you sir.

The editing of this video was absolutely flawless. Great quality stuff, especially paired with to the point information!

Honestly I heard about the level feature in the camera for the 1st time after this video. You are such a gem to keep content precise and useful. I usually get bored and miss out te details in lengthy video. Can't believe this is your video. quality is amazing

The microphones on the iPhone are certainly better than those on Android (yeah, this is a hot take), thus Siri can tell the difference between when you say Siri and when you do not. I have both Android and iOS devices, and on Android, I received more problems when I didn't say hey Google than when I said hey Siri or Siri.

Hi Will, you are a breath of fresh air when it comes to tech review is concerned. 😊

Level feature is the one I've been waiting for for a decade. Actually, I was assuming Apple would never introduce this since they make their camera app like "You press the button, we do the rest", and then it'll adjust the level by itself. But it seems to be wrong. Thanks for the info!

As a general word of advice when It comes to discovery, I highly suggest you simply listen to other people’s playlists. See if you can find the name of a specific subgenre you like, look for playlists, and just take a listen. I recently started doing that more often and my discovery has gone wayyyyy up. The algorithm still accounts for 50% of what I’m finding, but I am far less reliant on it. It’s even sort of fun to discover new stuff on your own. Just my two cents anyways

This video reminded me of the early Tech KZread videos. Straight to the point, no bs, no fillers, no ads. Subbed.

As much as I was really on the fence about installing iOS 17 after the end call button fiasco, I’m glad they came to their senses and put it back where it belongs. It’s gonna be hard to pick just one awesome feature. I’m going to have to say my top five is the one time verification code cleanup because it saves me the extra step of manually cleaning up, live voicemail because the audio quality of the voicemail is crystal clear, contact posters because I quite love seeing peoples Memojis, the advanced tracker blocking and fingerprint protection in Safari which can be applied to all Safari sessions and not just when in private browsing mode, and the revamped weather app because it’s fantastic and I love the enhanced visual effects.

i have a few features that i liked. the interactive widgets (i thought that was absurd that i use android till 2019 and already had some great interactity); the option the crop the photo when you zoom it; the new contacts poster, but i don't feel that is very relevant and takes a little time to adjust; also the option to change the font and size in the lock screen.

I made a grave mistake by updating to the beta in I had to reset my iPhone and wiped out EVERYTHING. I like the new poster feature for contacts except it's really tricky. You have to setup posters and contact photo. Can't seem to use contact photo only. Also, with the beta, I don't receive WhatsApp notifications unless I keep the app open. Weird but true. Can't wait for official release. Thx.

i had an iphone 11 and the display mode always worked i tested it back when the ios 17 private beta was out and used it since

i didn't know the level camera thing was ios 17 but i never take pictures without it anymore

I do agree that iOS 17 is definitely about the small details. I like google maps but it is so janky and I love how Apple Maps works with my Apple Watch. I just wish I could add more controls in control center for HomeKit without tapping on the home logo to expand it but this could be user error.

Loved this video, I will note that actually if you had both the iOS 17 and AirPods betas downloaded, you can use adaptive audio and conversion awareness, I actually find it works quite well so far, not perfect but pretty good, especially conversation awareness, it’s so nice to just be able to talk with someone and the AirPods switch to transparency and lower the volume for you, then about ten to fifteen seconds after the conversation, the audio goes back to normal, it will also get louder or quieter depending on other noises in the environment.

One thing revealed at WWDC was the addition of transformer based autocorrect. I'm really excited for this as I find the autocorrect on my iPhone to be absolutely atrocious. However I am worried about how it'll work; if all of the work is done server side, is it essentially keylogging all of your inputs? I hope they find a way to keep it encrypted.
