You all really super quick man, when it comes to accessories.

I’m waiting for the official Apple ones because the only reason I am buying is because of the Magsafe accessories. That wallet + casing looks really good together. Oh and also another Nomad case as well - seems like I have a Nomad for all my iPhones.

Tetapi can't wash. Today I'll get my 20W charger. Tomorrow back to work and test it.

Cannot wash, just wipe with damp cloth and wipe again with dry cloth.

Instead of wired charging, might want to consider wireless charging? I’m actually looking forward to the Magsafe Duo (the phone + AW charger) so I don’t have to splurge on the Nomad Base Station Pro ranting.gif

He's using Xiaomi, like me. If you want dark mode for iOS, most likely you need to jailbreak it.

Dark Mode has been on iOS for quite awhile now, since iOS13.

I use it on a daily basis, light mode is such an eyesore.

Because there is no charger or earphones, it's like the shortest unboxing video ever. smile.gif

Most of the unboxing videos are boring.

The Verge’s review’s the best - not an unboxing but straight out phone review. A few good points were pointed out by Nilay Patel (the host) and an in-depth camera review by Becca.

attw I choose Pro mainly because the color, iOS, better front facing camera for video calling, support 4K Netflix, better microphone, audio and I can finally utilize my Airpods Pro. I'm still using Xiaomi with Airpods Pro.

I know some guys will judge my weird reason, but I just prefer to use the iPhone and luckily I still have cash to buy it. As for MagSafe, I still think and most likely just spend on a case & tempered glass only.
*
Err I dont think you can get 4K Netflix via iPhone. Last I checked, only MacOS has it.

i think the magsafe thingy no need to buy  . just buy the case .. a bit lembab to charge using that magnetic bulat thingy2 ..

MagSafe charges at 15w while standard Qi charges at 7.5w. That’s 2x the Qi standard enabled for iPhones.

I saw the MKHB and other guy review yesterday with leather case and wallet...not very strong especially when you try putting it in pokect...the wallet the slide off from the case.

I like the clear cas ebut again...it doesn't cover the bottom part...scared I might hurt my baby  cry.gif
Owh no...I can't afford to let my baby being naked  doh.gif time to find temporary solution
save save save buy buy buy.....need the best for the baby  thumbup.gif

Actually the new Apple case does cover the bottom this time, unlike the previous versions. The body of the phone now allows the case to fully cover the body.

Also, I would like to highlight that MKBHD did not test the wallet with the case on when putting it to the pocket. My gut feels tells me that the magnets on the casing will be stronger than the phone’s - so when you attach the wallet, it holds better. I might be wrong, but this is a wishful thinking - have yet to see any reviewer do this test as of now.

QUOTE(blacktubi @ Oct 21 2020, 03:00 PM)
I wonder if Apple is going to support 15w on third party Qi chargers.

My Samsung Qi Charger since 4 years ago already supported 15W wireless charging.
*
Android supported hi-speed wireless charging since forever, only Apple only stuck with 7.5w Qi standard tongue.gif

But I’m not complaining since I always charge my phone overnight wirelessly, so high speed or slow speed doesn’t bother me.

Haaaa yes you're correct, never noticed that he didn't tried it on with covers. And you're probably right , the cover might have stronger magnets.

On the cover part - are you sure the clear case cover the bottom part? Seems like it doesn't or is it me that blind haha  mega_shok.gif

Only the clear one doesn’t - the silicone one has bottom protection.

anyone knows if the adapter is similar as the ipad pro 2020 version?
*
Similar in a sense that they are both USB-C chargers, but differs in wattage output.

iPad Pro uses the older 18w, while the new USB-C is 20w that is equipped together with the newer iPad Air.

QUOTE(PeeEl @ Oct 21 2020, 11:47 PM)
For me, no charging brick aside, not to mention the earphones, the sort of deal breaker for me is the reduced battery capacity. No matter how power efficient the iPhones are, with the phones having 5G, they will definitely not last as long as we would like it to be.

High refresh rate is good to have but not end of the world without it. That’s for me.
*
Then again, 5G in Malaysia doesn’t seem to be happening anytime between 2021-2023 so I guess by the time we can finally use 5G here, it’s already a new rendition of the iPhone with bigger & better battery (wishful thinking) tongue.gif .

Guys, I just don't know how true this source are as no ads has been placed in maxis page at all. At least Celcom and Digi also U-Mobile showing it in the page. So I'm not too sure guys.....

Now in sirim database, only 1 phone application approved but expired date being 1 year hahahaha  doh.gif

Hence why I asked for source.

I think its important and a responsibility of any forummer to also provide their source of claims when making statements like these.

Everyone here is excited and eager and most will take things out of context ala jumping the gun based on rumors and speculations - its normal human behavior. Hence source is important, its up to the reader to decide if this source is trustworthy or just another speculations.

No one ordering from Casetify ka?

I’m waiting for another nice collab before placing order - their case is hella-expensive + shipping. Nomad also cheaper lol.

Sorry!  bangwall.gif
Don’t mean to make you super sad sad
It just says under 5G but no one surfs for 8 hours non stop. Mentioned in the test. Technically the test was, opens a new tab every 30 seconds haha and I believe if 5G is really that fast, its meant to download and already finished downloading in no time. But as normal human, we could be watching youtube for 8 hours, don’t need 5G, 4G is already enough right? Then the ip12/pro battery lasts longer. Hope to make you feel slightly not so sad... sweat.gif

Don’t worry la, by time you get 5G here in Malaysia, you will already be carrying iPhone 13 / 14 tongue.gif

Ya'll need to calm the F down. You've waited for almost a year. What is another 2 weeks or so? It's just a phone. There are other better things to worry about.

I see some here worried bout who's gonna get the phone 1st, when it's gonna be released, checking SIRIM database daily, even harassing sites on their marketing! They prey on people like you!

We come to this forum for credible information about the launch/release. Not to witness your whining by the minute. Grow up! Just be patient and wait for the release. There's no point bickering about this and that. That'll just stress yourself. There's better things in life than to be b*tching over a bloody phone.
*
It’s normal. Been through so many iPhone launches over the years and there’s always a eager group of early adopters.

Thats why I kept stressing that whoever post information needs to have the responsibility to fact-check and ensure their source is credible before posting - any misinformation will drive these groups crazy.
