Divide the price with usage month, that will bring down the cost.  whistling.gif

Hahaha, I don't do that coz I normally upgrade my iPhone yearly laugh.gif
Usually my budget for phone case is not more than RM150 - although the nicer leather ones are all above that threshold.

Anyone using the uag plasma cases for their 12?

I feel like my current uag civilian is too thick for my liking. Maybe the plasma would fit better since it feels thinner on my n10.

Using UAG Plasma for my 12 Pro Max - I think the thickness is more or less the same as the Civilian smile.gif

Yup, the differences mostly in terms of how the phone handles background process. Technically all background activity thingy such as iCloud photo sync etc, will only be done when u off the low power or while the phone is charging.

I don't play game on my phone, only socmed and heavy camera usage. So low power mode is ok for me to save my battery life & i usually don't need to charge my phone every day. Charge like every 1.5 days with 20/80 rule. Technically only use 60% of battery life every 1.5 days.

Been doing this since iPhone 4. Haha. Back then I'm really a power user will tweak everything to get better battery life. I just switched back to iPhone after spending a year plus with Google Pixel. Now that iPhone cameras beat the hell out of Pixel, time for me to stick back to iPhone. Haha. For this iPhone 12, i noticed i don't have to tweak anything, just on low power mode, and I'm good to go.

Have you experienced any delayed notifications for leaving it in low power mode? WhatsApp, iMessages or maybe even emails?

Nope, no delay, never experienced delay even on my past iPhones before. Currently on my 12 im using teams/outlook/whatsapp/imessages/facetime/line/gmail. All notification as usual. nod.gif

Nice bro, thanks for confirming that. I think that will alleviate concerns some might have about leaving the phone on low power mode coz if you do that in Android (battery saving mode), notifications do tend to be delayed smile.gif

For notification no delay... it’s just slow down ur speed... example antutu u can get 600k after low power mode u get 400k
*
Yeah, then for those who don't use resource intensive apps or into heavy gaming should be fine leaving it at low power mode 24/7 smile.gif

Ok thank you guys! Since many good comment about the 12 mini, I’ll just get the 12 mini.
*
You won't regret it, definitely a good choice over the 11.

QUOTE(Carlo J @ Nov 26 2020, 10:45 AM)
Ya, I went with 12 because the RM800 difference is not a trivial amount for me.
*
Ya, that's a substantial difference - definitely the 12 is more value for money.

QUOTE(jsen58 @ Nov 26 2020, 02:06 PM)
Finally back to iPhone family. I gotten the iPhone 12 mini. Previously was on Samsung Galaxy Note 10 however phone got stolen... have been thinking for quite a while, decided to buy this phone again. Last iPhone was iPhone 6.

This new design reminds me so much of iPhone 4, was one of the best design in my opinion. Glad that they didnt move to the curve screen design.
*
Wow, such a big difference in terms of the screen size over the Note 10! Hopefully you can get used to it!

So much poison for 12 Mini.

Aside from the S Pen for some work purpose, so far so good. Actually I always like compact phone. Battery life so far is good for me too.

Nice bro! Good to hear you’ve adjusted to the smaller screen size laugh.gif

wonder if iphone mini will still be around next year? tongue.gif

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.

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 smile.gif

I see... 12 or 12 Mini? I don’t think a 3% drop over few hours of standby is something to get too worried about. Could be normal.

Btw, what charger do you guys used currently? Anyone still using old usb charger? My mini is otw. Waiting gdex to knock my door. I haven’t get the new usb-c charger yet. Thinking of using the old charger first.

That's a good idea. if not in rush, can still use the ipad 12w charger. Thanks for sharing. I will temporary use 12w charger while searching for better deal on 18w charger.  smile.gif

I’m using the iPad 12W charger at the moment as well. Takes just under two hours to get my iPhone 12 Pro Max from 40-50% to full. I’m sure it’ll be much faster on your Mini smile.gif

Your iPhone has a fingerprint-resistant oleophobic — oil repellent — coating. Cleaning products and abrasive materials will diminish the coating and might scratch your iPhone.

As quoted from apple website... for the 1st month u can’t see scratches... until the coating wear slowly by ur thumbs cuz gaming or scrolling... then u will start see some thin scratches... but only visible under strong sunlight

Yes, don’t wipe your phone screen with sanitizer laugh.gif
