yes it help protect from dusts

yes thats why 2.5D is one of the best options, there are newer versions (not sapphire) from imos corning which is seamless 3D slightly smaller cut from traditional full 3D for that will fit maybe 70-80% of cases... but from my experience the brands that i mention on previous post works fine even with imos seamless 3D corning

don't quote me on this but afaik news from the internet saying ever since apple using intel modems their connectivity has been poor compared to qualcomm modems... but for my personal experience i don't experience disconnections... maybe wait for update? i'm on ios13.2 public beta and the recent 4th beta fixes the LTE issue... maybe can give it a try

Thats one thing up to your decide factor when choosing screen protector for ur phone...

if you're a careful person who basically never drop your phone and fussy with hairline scratches and smoothness... i would say sapphire is a go, cause my sisters' xs max is using first gen sapphire and 6 months later the coating still good as new... given the fact from my experience ladies phone the screen protector oleophobic coating usually wear off faster reason from throwing their phone in the bag, make up stick on the phone, and sometimes accidental scratches from their earring... my sister has all these 3 happening to the sapphire but it still is good as new

sapphire = impossible to scratch but breaks easier
corning = harder to break but easier to scratch

afterall glass is still glass, it will break if there are forces impacted on it or drop... the only reason we use it is to protect our precious phone screen

hope this info helps



here is a strength test for the sapphire screen protector

they do have, u can look for connect2u in shopee


oleophobic is awesome! lasts wayyy longer than corning
imos corning by itself is already good, sapphire i can say is 3x longer lasting for the coating

too bad the new designs now doesn't really make me have the urge to buy it bro... as i'm using max size if getting ec will make the phone even heavier and bulky

slamboy certified as quoted by youtuber flossy

quite good for chinese brand, fair pricing too if u buy directly from taobao. another recommended brand is ranvoo and benks

Can try look for senheng or harvey norman usually they have better cc options
go for 256gb as the apps and photo sizes are getting bigger by time.
any iphones sold under apple official resellers are covered by their 1st year warranty

anyone went from 5.8 (xs) to pro max and regretted the size upgrade?

Did u manage to keep all your social media (wechat, whatsapp) chat conversations history after factory reset?

imos sapphire screen protector. Been using it since day 1 launch in Malaysia till now and it’s good as new. Dare to say best in the market now
