Some people such as myself don't like using a case so Apple Care Plus is worth it.

And less prone to break under pressure if I'm lifting or moving something with phone in pocket

Thanks! | I use them. Buy them online they are usually like 4 to 5 dollars and apply it yourself. You can look up on youtube video on how do it easily. I use the scotch tape method and it super easy. When you apply it do it in a room with less dust and you can use a lint roller to remove the dust on the screen first. I think i have like 6 tempered glass at home lol. Always order extra ones if it is your first time apply them.
If do you buy online make sure you get the thinner ones (I think they are .26mm with 2.5D).

Which ones did you get? They won't cover the full screen right due to the curved screen?

Rarely ever use the front camera so not sure, I don't think so. However I think telling the apple store that pictures taken off the phone show the sliver when viewing them would be enough to get a new phone

I have a shifted front camera too. I thought it was just my phone but it seems to be a common problem. I will get Apple store to replace my phone in about 21 months

Anybody else's text messages time show up funny?
Never realized till I pulled a text screen to the left but a message I clearly received afterwards shows up and I recieved it way before my previous text
Text is for sure afterwards because she was responding to my question

Text is for sure afterwards because she was responding to my question | Have you checked Settings>General>Date&Time to ensure you're using automatic or network time? If your time is set manually and is fast, your sent message is timestamped with the internal clock, the received message is timestamped off of the network time. Then your phone sorts it in your conversation accordingly.

We both have iPhones if that helps and its 6 mins behind
Maybe it's the discrepancy between iMessage and text? Although both show up as iMessages
