QUOTE(westlife @ Nov 27 2020, 05:34 AM) wonder if iphone mini will still be around next year?  i actually love it quite a lot. haha. but my usage draws me to pro max due to the display size as i spend a lot of time playing my mobile game. Apparently sales of the 12 and 12 Mini are below expectations while the demand for the Pro and Pro Max is strong so far. I think there may not be a 13 Mini next year, but maybe the 11 and the SE 2020 both gets phased out next year and the 12 Mini gets a price cut to become the entry level iPhone. QUOTE(RoastedChicken @ Nov 27 2020, 08:27 AM) Guys wanna ask, My phone charged and use abit till 99% yesterday then I went to sleep. This morning the battery became 96% altho I din use anything! Is this normal Yes and no. Yes because there could be some background activity while you were sleeping, e.g. WhatsApp Group chat messages, etc. No because Apple typically maintains your last charge percentage for quite a bit if you don’t use the phone after charge. Look at your battery stats and see what was running while you were asleep. This post has been edited by attw: Nov 27 2020, 08:34 AM

QUOTE(RoastedChicken @ Nov 27 2020, 08:34 AM) Ya but I haven't put in simcard yet. Just play around with camera 😅 Usually what's the charge loss average? Aiyakkk I've been using my phone for 2 weeks. Avg charge loss for me around 3-5% each night.

I thought it’d be nice to have one too but after trying the demo set the phone is just a tad too small for me, uncomfortable to type lengthy stuffs on it  QUOTE(RoastedChicken @ Nov 27 2020, 09:20 AM) There's no simcard into the phone , just last is camera only WiFi is on? What other apps do you have installed?

QUOTE(Carlo J @ Nov 26 2020, 11:48 PM) Yes, be careful when you wipe with alcohol based because it can melt the glue between the screen and body of the phone. P.S. To those planning to get Mous case: Black Friday sales https://www.storminggravity.com/collections...phone-12-seriesCool. Considering to get carbon fiber or walnut ..... Not sure which one looks better on white mini

Aiyakkk I would suggest that you don't be overly concerned about the percentage. It is only a reference. Firstly, you haven't charged to 100% and therefore it may not be a good indicator for "3% loss" overnight. It is just a phone. Just enjoy it.

Bigger screen bigger battery Then can get iPhone mini. certainly not. iPad is bad for mobile gaming. especially those required fast controls. the bigger size will become an burden to those types of games. haha. if u are talking about racing one maybe.

You can get a combo deal now that comes with a USB c lightning cable for RM140 on shopee.

How's the quality and the charging speed so far?  Not calculated the speeds exactly but i think it hit 50% around 30 mins. I got it from flash gadgets Sunway pyramid. I have the shopee link to the combo deal if you want. https://shopee.com.my/product/127869902/466...74-1606460848.9
