For the love of God, get those lens protectors off. Ruins photos for no upside at all

u/Dupagoblin 7h ago

Exactly especially since the lens is the only part of OP’s iPhone 6 that isn’t destroyed. Shows that it isn’t needed.

u/PedanticButCorrect 5h ago

So now i dont know why I always hear people saying that because the lens of my 15 pro literally just last week is shattered/cracked (a nice fractal effect in every picture now) because of how it fell when I dropped it the other day. The cameras banged right on the side of the table as it went down. No lens protector and now all my pictures have a nice weird cracked looking effect when there’s bright light.

Sometimes its better to say nothing and let them figure it out themselves. By the time they compare photos theyll feel stupid.

new iPhone with awesome camera tech… covered by garbage lens protectors. Come on man

u/TestFlightBeta 16h ago

It doesn’t significantly degrade quality. You wouldn’t be able to tell in a blind test

18

u/Flashy-Outcome4779 16h ago

A cheap, shitty piece of glass over the entire lens will in fact make it noticeably worse

-10

u/TestFlightBeta 16h ago

No it won’t. I’m a photographer. You’re a random redditor who doesn’t know what you’re talking about, parroting information you read online. We are not the same.

u/Flashy-Outcome4779 15h ago

Cope about it however you want man, if you can’t notice it I don’t really care. Physics is physics

“Why do you have a sticker on the back of your iPhone Air? You do realize that makes it 0.1g heavier and the purpose of the Air is to be lightweight, right??? Physics is physics”-type energy

If you've ever wondered who falls for the "seran wrap on the toilet" prank...

It's this guy. It must be true. It's the same level of blind.

Talk about an upgrade....
Congrats Brother/Sister

u/Cute_Passage_4325 15h ago

The 18 pro and the 6s be like

u/hemligaspionengustav 18h ago

But you took the picture with another phone.... hmm

31

u/sovngrde 17h ago

This is not an intelligent comment…. People have tablets, friends and family members and room mates with phones, etc.

And it’s not a very high quality photo either so who is to say it isn’t an older/backup phone?

14

u/Zeustah- 17h ago

Lmfao at the “this is not an intelligent comment” 😭

u/Rady151 17h ago

I take these kind of photos with my wife’s phone, what’s your point?

u/Deep-Elk7477 16h ago edited 12h ago

Yeah bro. People only have one device that takes pictures. Total conspiracy…

1

u/HotAbbreviations2751 12h ago

It's a simple limitation of physics.

u/SimpleComputer911 17h ago

iPad perhaps

u/Amonamission 16h ago

Alright, someone link the Reddit thread here.

People using lens cover should not use iPhone what’s use of that you cannot use camera to fullest

3

u/nosetaddress 16h ago

I know a guy that just now upgraded from an 8 to an 18 Pro, only because the cell modem started having issues. It had like 3 or 4 battery replacements. He uses phones until they refuse to work.

3

u/-AdamTheGreat- iPhone 18 Pro Max 15h ago

Bro. Holy shit that’s an upgrade

3

u/musicisgr84u 5h ago

I love you lol this is some thing I would do too. I had the 13 pro for 7 years and loved it but switched only because of the battery and camera

2

u/Physical-Cut-2334 17h ago

Furthest jump i've seen so far

2

u/spira1ing 17h ago

congrats on your upgrade!

2

u/roccerfeller 17h ago

This is awesome. My cousins wife also made this jump 6s to 18 pro

2

u/BarryBoy76 17h ago

u/SpartanHydrazine117 17h ago

Massive upgrade

u/Ill-Loan6239 16h ago

It was time bro!

u/Ornery_Pipe4294 16h ago

Nice upgrade well done keeping the 6s for this long

2

u/Ornery_Pipe4294 16h ago

I upgraded from 6s to XR then XR 13 pro and then 13 pro to 15 plus and now 3 weeks ago to 17 pro. I absolutely love this phone couldn’t be more happy

2

u/Howard0115 14h ago

That’s quite an upgrade!! Outstanding! Enjoy!

2

u/HoopEdits 12h ago

i did the exact samee twinn went from a 6s to 18promax aswell

2

u/Wide-Elk-9241 4h ago

Wise man!

3

u/notnijiatall 2h ago

6s is CRAZY

2

u/mxforest 19h ago

How did you not have money to upgrade all these yrs and then suddenly had money and need to buy the Pro and not even base? Genuinely curious.

6

u/SharkDad20 Burgundy Bricc 18h ago

Probably wasn’t about money

12

u/sovngrde 17h ago

Just because someone doesn’t have the latest technology doesn’t mean they can’t afford it. What a daft comment.

3

u/RebelNoPermission289 16h ago

Yeah. Maybe he just didn't give a shit until it really got bad.

1

u/DrunkPimp 2h ago

American brain cannot understand having the money for things you may want and not immediately spending all of said money to acquire all things. 😂

14

u/HandsomeStoneMonkey 18h ago

People who don't upgrade every year are more likely to be good at saving money and spending responsibly (which then enables you to buy nice things) 😅

u/Hi-man1372 16h ago

My local crack head never upgrades he really onto somethin here.

u/neversaydie36 12h ago

What a dumb ass comment.

u/brandielynng29 17h ago

Wait did you encase that fossil??

u/Muhahahahaz Glacier iPhone 18 Pro Max 15h ago

6 what now…? 😮

u/j0Hnzer 14h ago

That 6s was one Thanos snap away from disintegrating.

u/Mr_Dck 13h ago

Poor thing…

1

u/JackedJackalope_ 11h ago

What an upgrade! Genuinely, what took you so long? Im not throwing shade at you or anything. But why you didnt upgrade earlier?

1

u/Sea-Yogurtt 11m ago

That 18 Pro is shivering

1

u/1Tbonejay 19h ago

I wish my 6 was still around. Currently have an 11, not crazy about the 18, like a fold Phone but not in love with the Duo look. If it was easy I’d jump to the Galaxy Ultra 8

2

u/SharkDad20 Burgundy Bricc 18h ago

What’s your qualms with the 18 pros? And, don’t take this the wrong way but I’m curious, what are you doing here?

1

u/1Tbonejay 17h ago

No real qualm, just not very impressed with it, sure it has a new engine and other things but my 11 is still kicking. Why, trying to get educated to make a good decision. Is that a problem for you?

1

u/SharkDad20 Burgundy Bricc 14h ago

You just went ahead and took it the wrong way anyways, lol

1

u/1Tbonejay 13h ago

Not really, but it’s ok. Just trying to get educated so I ask questions.

1

u/SharkDad20 Burgundy Bricc 13h ago

Asking if i had a problem with you being on the sub made it seem like you took it the wrong way.

Anyways, i would be very upset to have an 11, so i guess if you don’t use your phone for much intensive stuff, no need to upgrade

1

u/1Tbonejay 10h ago

I do have Apple Care and about 9 months ago they replaced the battery. or they tell me they did; all I know is it runs down FAST, and they is why I'm getting serious about looking to upgrade. It's not really then price, I love the idea of a fold, but since mi 11 was one of the first ones, it was had some issues. So a New Duo, is a non-starter until it's been out for at least 18 months or more. Thanks for your feedback.

1

u/SharkDad20 Burgundy Bricc 9h ago

Have you tried doing a factory reset and setting the phone up as new?

1

u/1Tbonejay 9h ago

I may just do that...thanks for the suggestion
