QUOTE(ckk125 @ Dec 15 2020, 07:12 AM) Updated.. but i don’t understand what raw is for? RAW is basically an uncompressed and unprocessed image format. Photos are usually shot in RAW to achieve the highest possible quality which allows the person to adjust or edit the photos from an uncompressed source - means that your image size is always larger (way larger). iPhones usually shoots in JPEG or HEIC, depending on your settings, but if you’re not into photo editing / photography, just keep it as per. For me personally, I’m grateful for the RAW feature - but won’t be using it on a daily basis, just for occasions that will require some Lightroom fun. |

QUOTE(shockk @ Dec 15 2020, 04:18 PM) Haha. Well, cheaper than many brand name leather wallets. So not too bad i guess.  Haha. So far liking it, hopefully it can replace my wallet when I’m out travelling light.  I’m actually using the wallet on a daily basis, its basically my daily driver now. I do carry another card holder for my cash, but its way thinner than having a full bi-fold wallet. |

QUOTE(fruitie @ Jan 18 2021, 06:07 PM) I could be wrong though, so need someone who is more experienced to share whether this is patina.  You damn disgusting. If it is patina, I don't mind but again it is free, so I cannot argue much. My previous Nomad cases ‘Patina’ effects = turn darker. But the darker shades are in total, not patches like your case. From the photos, it looks like its disintegrating or the leathwr breaking up due to quality issues. Never had these issues on Nomad cases before. If you’re considering leather ones, give Nomad a go. Their Horween leather is really top notch - now waiting for a Magsafe version only. |

QUOTE(fruitie @ Jan 19 2021, 10:34 AM) Of course I am. My area can get 200Mbps on Digi. Digi is not for everyone though, most of the people find it bad, so only you need to try out yourself. But their buttons are not tactile enough? I will wait till MagSafe version to decide again. Luckily I’m not alone with this issue. I honestly found their button to be quite tactile, Nomad ones. But their cases are quite bulky, the side bumpers are pretty thick because its rubber based unlike the Apple ones. I am still considering to get another casing for my phone, still using the Silicone casing since Day 1 - need that Magsafe function. |

QUOTE(attw @ Feb 7 2021, 11:10 PM) It’s interesting that the 4.0 is the same price as the 3.0 for the 12 Pro Max ($69.99) but the 4.0 is $10 more expensive than the 3.0 for the iPhone 12/12 Pro.  Funny, that price discrepancy. But I think there’s a couple of promo codes available only to offset that price ‘bump’. |

I removed my phone from the charger this morning at 85% battery, unknowingly.
Thank god for WFH, had to survive the day with less than my ideal charge and finally at almost 11.30pm, I still have 25% of juice left. One charge / day practice is still valid and followed religiously lol 😂.

QUOTE(attw @ Feb 18 2021, 10:59 AM) The Nomad is my first ever leather case bro, and I noticed some stuffs about it that I didn't quite like. One, it tends to scratch rather easily. While it supposedly "heals" after a while, parts of the scratch remains visible. Two, and I get that this is completely my own doing, I sometimes bring my phone into the bathroom to listen to music or podcasts when I shower and even though I've been careful to wipe the phone afterwards, the watermark stains are still there and have gotten more prominent, hehe. Nomad replied to my feedback on their website by sending me an email to tell me that's the characteristics of its horween leather and that I will appreciate the beauty of the patina in due course Haha yeah as an owner of 2 Nomad cases, I can attest to this experience as well, especially on the water part. The Horween leather is a little more delicate vs most leather but it does age well. The only cons I dislike is the side bumpers will get chipped rather easily also, leaving a sharp effect. |

QUOTE(attw @ Feb 18 2021, 07:31 PM) Oh wow... Looks like getting their case earlier wasn’t a bad move after all Nomad just sent me an email tempting me to buy again, hahaha... I’ll probably get one for my wife’s iPhone 12 Pro Max (mine is iPhone 12)... Tunggu apa lagi? Hahaha. Nomad’s customer service really top notch la. I ordered the Black one, then I noticed there’s a disclaimer that the dye will transfer to the Magsafe puck after awhile - so request to change to Rustic Brown instead. They switched it without any questions asked, cemerlang! |

QUOTE(attw @ Feb 19 2021, 12:34 PM) Yes, I can attest to that as well. After I placed my order the last round I also emailed them to change from 12 Pro Max to 12 and they did it for me really quickly and for free. Next level customer service! Yup, pulled the trigger as well, offer was too good to refuse. Already shipped out from HK  Yeah their shipping is super fast! Congrats on your new poison 😝 QUOTE(moniqee @ Feb 19 2021, 01:09 PM) yalor this andrewtho is poison king for nomad... Yes! Nomad’s racun always gets to me with every iteration of iPhones lol. When are you getting one? |
