QUOTE(marquis @ Nov 4 2018, 11:32 PM) Chiming in to support said bloke. Had my first "drop test" last week. Phone fell from about 4-5 ft. Landed on a corner. TG survived but the Ringke Fusion suffered some scratches to the corner it landed on. Better the case rather than the phone eh? Quoting so I can easily refer to it later. Lol. ------ Anyone here that have used wireless charging since iPhone X days? Contemplating one but it's a mixed bag. Some says it's better whilst some people say it degrades the battery. I remember a fellow forumer saying that they have the battery degrade under 90% with one year of using wireless charging, with the same charging pattern of using wired charging. I've had my 6s Plus for about three years and the battery is currently sitting at 83%. Would like to replicate that with the Max Thats me  , its based on my observation for the battery life from 8 plus to the 6s. I also notice that the phone is warmer when charge using wireless compared to cable. Now i am charging xs max fully wired. Lets see in another year is the battery degrading the same. If same maybe next year xi max i will simply charge wired or wirelessly lol. |

QUOTE(stevenng97 @ Nov 7 2018, 04:30 PM) Guys would like get all of u opinion should I get iPhone X’s Max 64 or 256gb because currently my 6s plus 64gb still left 30gb but I scared when upgrade to ip xs Max 64gb the iOS take a lot of space and of course the photo when capture its take how many mb ... If you plan to use more than 2 years , then 256GB is safer bet.Do take iOS app cache into consideration as they accumulate in size which could go into GB size depends on what app you are using. Only a handful of app able to clear the cache, other you need to delete and reinstall, which mean you will lose all the data. You will still able to enjoy the phone but there is some maintenance job if you dont mind. I prefer to use the device hassle free. |

QUOTE(ycgoh123 @ Nov 7 2018, 10:19 PM) haha any place can buy nice transparent case now  i didnt buy the case from Switch, only get their tempered glass. Plenty at ninjaz and quite cheap. Used so many transparent case before and really cannot differentiate between exp type like 100++ and those 10++ one. Almost same grip , texture and most importantly, they turn yellow after sometime. |

QUOTE(JaredC @ Nov 8 2018, 09:49 AM) Anyone use this type of casing before? Enclosing front and back with tempered glass by magnet. Wondering whether the magnets will disturb reception or not. And whether the screen will work properly or not.  Saw alot of beautiful magnetic case photo only. Real casing the worksmanship is quite bad. I believe it does make slight interference. |

For mine i felt 8 plus battery is better than xs max. The xs max battery life is about similar to my 6s plus usage. Drain quite fast , perhaps should go for xr soon ?  |

QUOTE(attw @ Nov 20 2018, 08:53 PM) No, nothing yet, but to be fair, it's only been four days since I've switched to the Xr I must say I'm growing rather fond of the Xr - the size, the battery life, and the striking red color! Battery life and lighter weight should be the main selling point to me. I think we can forget about the ram right? Not sure but usually i will use alot of tab in browser so more ram actually do matter for me. I dont like the browser keep refreshing or crash. |

QUOTE(attw @ Nov 22 2018, 06:59 PM) Yup, until eSIM gets widely adopted here I'm sticking with my HK sets  Was waiting for the wide adoption as well. Cant wait for the esim to be available as my malaysia number is from digi, and i rely the number for tac as i need transfer fund to pay bill when roaming now. Worry about the esim stability when its quite new and i think when this esim is widely used it will be more secure for people when roaming because the profile can be added again without going to the telco. |

QUOTE(attw @ Nov 23 2018, 06:47 AM) The old pricing is dead and buried bro. Tim Cook's Apple is not bothered about volume, they just want to sell at the highest prices possible to maximize profit. Hopefully this strategy will backfire sooner or later Yeah, I think that's why eSIM isn't officially launched here yet - stability. Even though maxis has it now for the Huawei watch they are insisting that you don't use it for your iPhone, hahaha. It remains to be seen how long it will take before it finally takes off! OIC. Do keep us updated on the progress yeah, quite a number of us here also bought from them. Interesting to see how their customer service is like. Now will be travelling quite alot and cant afford any instability due to needed tac for banking during travel. If not surely choose the esim device but seems digi also tarak sound. So just get the HK set instead by then i think 11 is near our shore. So far see no complaint from the esim user which is good enough. |
