very nice sis  :thumbsup:

My pictures weren't as nice. Oh well.

The case covers up almost everything. Can't tell if you are using an iPhone and looks more like a ladies wallet. Overall, I'm quite ok with the case; still prefer the old i6s+ grafito case.

so only flip-type cases are safe to use for now? biggrin.gif

I think those with plastic back panel like spigen ultra hybrid should be ok too.

Just bought the otterbox folio case (flip type) for iPhone X. Decided to get a better casing coz the iPhone X looks more fragile than previous models.

Looking for sp and a clear case.

+1 for the Otterbox!

You can buy cases at maxis with discounts even if you don’t buy the phone from them?
*
Yes, you can. I asked the same question. But it helps a bit if you are a Maxis customer. The sales person (very good service, btw) will ask for hp number and email address.

The otterbox will be my main case. Nowadays, I prefer flip cases.

Nice! Did not know that. Always assumed you’d have to buy a phone from them to be entitled to the 20% discount. They do have some nice branded cases there.

I’ve started to keep an eye on their products. Good thing is can pay with MBB Amex cc.

Exactly. smile.gif

I’m looking for a reasonably good sp. Read that Hoda is good and found machines selling from $85 onwards. I probably want someone to install for me as my own attempts usually don’t produce good results.

Is it hoda brand? I saw another brand but wasn’t sure of the quality.

I’m using Hoda (full coverage) for my 8 Plus now and I can vouch for the quality. No fingerprint smudges and excellent clarity smile.gif

Yeah, I’m also hopeless at DIY screen protectors which is why I don’t mind paying a premium to get it professionally installed smile.gif

Good to know. I’ve quite decided to get Hoda sp once I get my phone. Aside from that, I think I’m all set.

Concluded my vacation in Singapore but in the end decided not to get the iPhone X just yet, even though with GST refunds I would end up paying RM47xx for a 64GB one but decided I would get one later either via telco or some other source smile.gif

I did come across this Otterbox case at the Apple Store and it looks classy, so I went ahead and bought it, even though I didn't buy the phone, ha ha...

Haven't seen this in Malaysia yet...

Very nice case and the price is ok too. Wah, you bought case from the genuine Apple Store instead of the X. Lol.

Yeah, was adamant I would make a purchase at the Apple Store, but bought a case instead of a phone biggrin.gif

The store was overcrowded though and the retail guys and gals all had their hands full, so the buying experience was not as pleasant as I'd imagine it to be, hehe. Anyways, am happy with the case, was told it's exclusive to Apple Stores at the moment smile.gif

How's the phone after a month or so?
*
I’m not surprised. It’s the holiday season after all. I postponed my trip to next year. So, maybe the store won’t be as crowded. Hehe.

The X is good. I don’t feel any difficulties to use the phone coming from i7+. Seamless transition, I guess. Battery drains faster though with my usage but can still last a day. Haven’t tried the Apple car play yet. Maybe this weekend.

Best avoid during holiday season I guess. More than half the crowd were foreigners, all buying Apple products and claiming tax refunds with their passports biggrin.gif

The battery life on the X is curious, some feedback says good, some says less stellar than the Plus models, guess I’ll need to try it out for my own usage pattern to now for sure!
*
Apple fans. What can we say. Hehe. Anyway, back to this thread topic.

I’m not buying anymore cases . *hope not* I am very happy with the otterbox flip case I’m currently using.

Looking for a handphone car holder for using waze. Right now, I just put next to my side on the car armrest area. I have to keep looking down. It’s still bearable but maybe not so safe.

Yup, I've learned my lesson as to having too many cases as well, haha. Now, it's just one good one till it is completely worn out then only get a replacement one smile.gif

Plenty of options for car mounts, are you looking for one that sticks to the dash, windscreen or the aircond vent?
Yeah, I won't know for sure till I try for myself biggrin.gif

Prefer to stick on the windscreen. I’d apply a film used for roadtax first on the windscreen so that the suction holder doesn’t stain the tint.
