4 month user of RhinoShield microfibre solidsuit here. Not exactly long term but the microfibre is still nice and soft as day one. That said, I generally take good care of my devices, never leave it on rough, dirty or wet surfaces so I have no idea how it would fare under tougher conditions. What you should worry about is rather the hard plastic part of the case. I’ve only dropped it once, from my bed, so not exactly a tall drop. Instead of just scuff marks or scratches, the plastic coating peels off like skin leaving little torn skin bits sticking out. The peeling is localised to the point of impact so it’s not big, just a slight eyesore. Never tried peeling the plastic bits off because I’m worried doing so might increase the size of the “wound”.

Overall, I like it very much, especially that soft microfibre back, would be better if the case is less slippery.

Screen resolution and processor are also key factors in battery life. Mid range Android phones with huge batteries these days tend to last longer than flagship models because midrange processors consumes less power at the expense of tip top performance. But those things don't really matter to the average folk who don't game or use any resource intensive apps on their phones.

As for AMOLED vs LCD, it's not that AMOLED is more efficient, it's that AMOLED is capable of true black meaning individual pixels can turn off when not in use thus saving battery, unlike LCD in which the backlight must turn on when screen is on, even to display blacks. So unless you are always using your AMOLED with true black background in wallpaper, settings, apps etc., it's not much different from LCD. In fact, it might even consume more because AMOLED these days are generally brighter than LCD. Hence why XR is a battery beast.

For e-sim, what happens if I remove data plan after adding it to phone? Can I just reuse the same QR code to re-add?

Yes

XS was announced around September but will take at least two more months for it to reach our shores, officially anyway. So maybe around November or December?

eSIM on iPhone is not offered in China mainland. In Hong Kong and Macau, only iPhone XS features eSIM.

Mine is working with Maxis esim

US set here using Maxis esim no problem

Well you just answered your own question.

Mine is an unlocked set so it just works.
