Note #4

One of my best purchases over the last few years is a simple analog alarm clock. No more doomscrolling in bed. If I can’t sleep, I read a book. In the mornings, I don’t linger; I get up and start my morning routine. Does wonders for your mind and body.

Note #3

The iPhone 16 Pro is an amazing phone, and (obviously) a huge upgrade from my 12 mini. Looking forward to spending more time with the camera, and especially the Photographic Styles.

I had too high expectations for the new Camera Control button though. Its position makes it very uncomfortable to use, my phone has a bug where it doesn’t open the camera app with a single click, and it’s simply just easier to use the touchscreen instead.

Note #2

Pre-ordered an iPhone 16 Pro. I love my iPhone 12 mini, but it lacks two things I want: USB-C and a telephoto lens. Will take time to get used to the size and the weight though.

Thanks to the iPhone’s telephoto lens, I can finally leave my mirrorless Fujifilm at home when traveling. It’s not a full replacement, of course, but it’s enough for what I want out of my travel photography.
