I wish Apple would just have a real dark mode. As a choice...I prefer a dark interface vs a white interface like that use now. I also wish they do the same for macOS.

I definitely hope that Apple will have a dark theme for iOS 12 because damn, it looks much better when it's dark!!!!

Great video. Thx. Not really concerned about looks, but when traveling maxing out these options sounds like a good idea. 

Best.

An awesome reason to go OLED.
But I still hate the blue color shift & the fact that OLED has 50% the life span of LCD.

When I upgrade I am still going for the 8 Plus, from the 6 Plus

The black wallpaper looks great on my iPhone X--even makes the notch invisible.
