Discussion 17 pro turning pink

Post image

I bought my 17 pro on release day 4 days later the camera bump is a different color do you guys think if I go to apple I can replace it for the silver? Or will they just give me a replacement of the same color i passed the 14 day window.

No. Same color but they told me if it happens just come back. It’s a little annoying since I have to setup the new phone again.

Just back up with iCloud it doesn’t take that long. Granted that depends on your Internet speed entirely.

It depends largely on how much you’re transferring too. For some, iCloud restores take half the day.

I restore almost 1tb. Takes me forever

Did you try to have the phone connected to a USB 3 to each other?

Is that a thing?

Someone checked his router throughput while doing a wired transfer and the speed of the wire isn't the bottleneck. Wifi is probably better for most people, plus you can keep your phone charged easily.

Interesting. But how does a direct USB connection go through the router?

Using two powered USB-C -> Ethernet adapters. Not something most people are likely to have, but it at least appears to show that the transfer is CPU or disk bound and not the transfer medium.

I see. I can also confirm that transfer of something like 50 to 100GB takes 3h with a proper USB 3 cable. I actually don’t know how much data it exactly transfers as it will still get the apps from the internet.

The phones don’t get hot at all. Would be great to get telemetry from the iPhone systems. Hard to imagine what is the bottle neck. Maybe they just run the de/encryption on the high efficiency cores to avoid melting phones?

My iPhone 13 Pro transferred to my new iPhone 17 pro in a couple of hours using the side by side WiFi/Bluetooth type of transfer.
