If this had happened with almost any Android flagship brand, the backlash would probably be massive by now.
Apple has started using QLC NAND extensively in the 1TB and 2TB versions of the iPhone 18 Pro series. The problem is simple: compared with TLC, QLC is a storage technology that prioritizes higher density and lower cost. It allows manufacturers to offer larger capacities more efficiently, but sustained write performance, performance after cache exhaustion, and write endurance are all inherently weaker. And now we have real-world testing that shows just how large the gap can become.
HOMOLAB tested a 1TB QLC iPhone 18 Pro Max. With plenty of SLC cache available, write speeds can exceed 3,000 MB/s, so during normal use, opening apps or taking a few photos, you may never notice anything unusual. But once the cache is exhausted, average direct-to-QLC write speed drops to around 79.4 MB/s, with lows of roughly 25.6 MB/s. When storage usage reaches around 60%, the available SLC cache reportedly shrinks from about 250GB to 58GB, while average direct QLC write speed falls to around 45 MB/s. In an extreme case, it even dropped to just 1.1 MB/s.
The gap also shows up in mixed read/write workloads. A 512GB TLC model scored 11,285, while the 1TB QLC version scored only 8,168, a difference of nearly 38%.
And this is where the situation becomes especially questionable. The 1TB and 2TB models are the most expensive versions, and they are also the ones most likely to be bought by power users and professionals. These are exactly the users who are more likely to record long ProRes or 4K videos, transfer huge files, batch-process photos and videos, or keep their storage heavily occupied.
So you pay more for more storage, yet you may end up with inherently weaker NAND.
Apple’s storage controller and caching strategy are genuinely impressive. In most everyday scenarios, they can hide many of QLC’s weaknesses extremely well. But cache can only hide those weaknesses. It cannot change the underlying physical characteristics of QLC NAND.
If another flagship brand did this on its most expensive high-capacity models, I can only imagine how brutal the reaction would be.
How to deal with this as a man:
- Get enough video recording
- Pick a few clothes
- Leave the house for her
- Never return until she's put to bed
After delivery, go with the police back to the house after showing them the video
- Demand she releases the baby to you as the baby isn't safe with her because of her violent nature.
- If she says No, demand that she signs an undertaking not to hurt the baby and if she does, she'd go to jail.
- Ensure you don't sleep in the same house with her.
- Forward the videos to her family members
- Then send her divorce papers.
Go and start a new family with a sane woman
Brace yourself for what might just be the BEST HIP HOP SONG IN AFRICA in 2026 💪🔥

OUT THIS FRIDAY!!
An Update on MTN you should please read till the end because we need you once again.
While we are still tentatively awaiting further correspondence from MTN in view of the elapse of the response timeline communicated to them in my last mail following their “IN DUE COURSE” response, WE NEED YOUR ASSISTANCE IN GETTING THE FOLLOWING EXPERTISE SO PLEASE ASSIST US BY PUBLICIZING ON OUR BEHALF; THIS IS A CAUSE FOR ALL NOT A CAUSE FOR ONE.
Interested Experts should DM @losensolicitors
We fully understand that it would cost us quite a handsome amount of money to employ the services of these experts however, we do not want to deviate from our course by soliciting for funds which is the sole reason we are soliciting for expertise instead.
It’s imperative to note that we are not drawing any conclusion at this stage and we would appreciate if no conclusion is drawn on our behalf as this can significantly water down our arguments. All we are doing is documenting the correspondence and allowing the record speak sincerely and literally speak for itself.
THIS IS THE SOLE REASON OUR CALL FOR PROFESSIONALS AND GETTING THESE LISTED PROFESSIONALS REMAIN CIRCUMSTANTIAL TO OUR CAUSE.
We are in need of experts who are willing to contribute their knowledge to this cause, independently scrutinize materials available and those to be further provided and also present their work with all genuinity.
No Assumptions
No Premature Conclusions
All we are asking for is evidence, proper analysis, transparency of our data usage and above all, ACCOUNTABILITY.
LET THE DATA SPEAK ACCURATELY AND TRANSPARENTLY

BREAKING: “He (the Senator) Ordered a Bandit to Kill Me”
A young man called Hassan Reveals How He Secretly Recorded Notorious Terrorist Dogogide, he also Saved Voice Recordings and Other Evidence on his Memory Card Before a Senator Caught Him and Allegedly Ordered His Killing for exposing them.
Before they kidnap or kill this young man, please let the whole world see this video.
As a network infrastructure engineer, I experienced this exact backend anomaly. My 800GB @MTNNG yearly plan was wiped out in just 53 days. I monitored the granular IPDR logs there was zero local hardware output or traffic to justify a depletion of that scale.
I currently have an unresolved petition with the @ConsumersNCC regarding this exact timeline. @MTNNG relies on blaming "background apps," but they refuse to provide forensic, server side transparency. I am ready to share my technical logs and correspondence to support this collective push for accountability.
🇳🇬 The moment BH heard the explosion, they thought the damage had been done.
So, the next move is for them to rush in and finish the job.
Sadly, they were outsmarted this time around.
God bless our 🇳🇬 troops.
300L Computer Engineering students from ABU Zaria, have developed an electronic walking aid for the visually impaired.
This is what we love to see👏 very impressive and creative.
I’m so glad your attention has been drawn to this situation at hand because I’m patiently waiting for MTN’s deadline to elapse before bringing it to your attention.
