I guess the initial theory is that third party doesn't have the MFI chip as Apple has not released it. However, now that I'm curious you mentioned similar wattage draw from the charger, how did you measure it btw? Tapped the signals on the cable?

Ah dang it, was looking for something with Type C... didn't see one. I ended up buying this https://www.aliexpress.com/item/3-in-1-Batt....44964c4d4XQ6LC, basically to check charging speed of my other USB products laugh.gif

Unless you buy those with glass back, saw a few brands having this now.

A glass case? That means adding more weight to an already heavy phone ohmy.gif

Go for it! So, you hold on to the X instead of buying the XR?

Ya, that's the plan for now, swap the XS Max with my wife's X then use it till next year... If I can tahan that long laugh.gif

Should be stocks aplenty now. Hype has died down.

Actually weight is the same if not lighter than those with a Polycarbonate back. One of the brands we sell (Laut Crystal-X) is lighter compared to the Spigen Ultra Hybrid.
But do be aware that it will only be more scratch resistant on the outside of the case. Usually on the inside of the case there will be a thin plastic layer to protect your phone should the glass shatter or break. So cleaning the inside of the case or removal/inserting your phone can still cause scratches on the inside.

My first time using Ringke Fusion, let me see how fast it turns yellow tongue.gif
Yeah, but I still prefer dark colored iPhone case tongue.gif. Having the gold accent on the sides is enough la.

Mous and RhinoShield both have lanyard loop.

Mous huh. I've heard about them but have never actually looked at their offerings. Thought it was just another one of those overhyped Kickstarter product.

Do you happen to know if RhinoShield have improved their quality? The last time I bought from them, both of my bumpers broke (tore) from normal daily usage. I find that very disheartening (despite the claim for lifetime warranty - I have yet to try that)
