I just got the 11 and its my first apple product, took some getting used to but I like it now.
Having said that, for what they charge for the phone they should include a splitter!

Just a headup--the lightning charging port is probably disappearing next year too....


I’ve already got my wireless charger it’s wonderful.


How would you charge your phone in the car if there is no lightening cable?

I've had an 11 for several months now and didn't notice the home button was gone until I read this post. I actually had to look at my phone to check. So I guess I don't miss it.

That is only because you started with Apple. I started with Android and have no idea how to use Apple products. Never had any issue getting started with Android. I refuse to let one company make all my decisions for me.

I miss my SE as well. All the phones are too damn big.

You get used to it eventually.

The funny thing for me is that when I use my son's older iPhone or my ipad it makes me look for it when I go back to my phone.

I have a wireless charging mat and I think it’s stupid. You can’t pick your phone up and use it while it’s charging, like if I’m at my desk at work. Stupid.
