Finally arrived today, my 5th Nomad case and it’s finally MagSafe compatible.

Now I have a tough time matching my Saddle Brown MagSafe wallet with this color.

I noticed this round the case is built differently, the leather feels different and the bumpers are ‘rougher’ too, I suspect its a different material vs the previous iterations. Also noticed the case is significantly lighter vs previous Nomad cases.

Loving this new and improved casing already!

Nice bro, mine arrived too, a bit disappointed the box didn’t look different from my non-MagSafe one, except for the words “with MagSafe” hahaha... Would have been nice to see the MagSafe pic on the box!

Have not opened mine yet, since it’s meant to be a gift for my wife and her 12 Pro Max... will compare it with mine once I’ve passed it to her and she has opened it up. It was meant to be a birthday present in May, but I had no idea the parcel would arrive so soon! The last time I bought during their Black Friday sale, it took about 6 weeks before I received it laugh.gif

Nomad case compare to Apple leather case, which one slimmer? Built quality Nomad better? Will Nomad case make your 12PM bulkier?
*
Apple is slimmer, but never owned the Apple Leather before hence I personally can’t compare but maybe some others can. The Nomad case isn’t terribly bulky hence it won’t contribute too much heft to your phone but I wouldn’t exactly call it a slim or minimalistic case...

Hahaha, no la, will “unveil” it to her this weekend as a super belated Valentine’s Day gift instead - totally forgot about that one this year, hahaha...

My guess is there will be no new design with the 13, if at all probably a smaller notch, hopefully with Touch ID incorporated to the power button and high refresh rate screen, but probably 120hz la, not 240hz, hahaha...

iPhones last 5 years, definitely no issue if you can hang on to the phone for that long smile.gif

Haha yeah trying to psycho her since Apple won the patent for 240hz display haha.

But I’d be interested to see what’s in store for iPhone 13, perhaps some minor cosmetic changes and improved internal chips only. Major one could be 14.

QUOTE(fruitie @ Feb 25 2021, 11:33 AM)
I doubt they will be iPhone 13 and 14. 13 is an unlucky number for Westerners while 14 is unlucky for Chinese. laugh.gif

Gonna be interested to see what it will be announced this year.

I don't think I will change my phone too, maybe next year when my contract with Digi ends. tongue.gif

Might be a 12S this year - or go the Samsung route and have an iPhone 21 laugh.gif

QUOTE(Lynixx @ Feb 25 2021, 12:49 PM)
Hi Guys, i'm dilemma on choosing the casing below, can suggest which one is better?

1. Spigen liquid air
2. UAG civilian
3. Rhinoshield SolidSuit (Carbon)

Thanks in advance  smile.gif
*
If your priority is low price, then it's Spigen Liquid Air.

I'd vote for UAG Civilian due to having personal experience with it smile.gif

Thanks for sharing your feedback bro smile.gif

May i know if UAG will add extra weight or bulky after putting on it?
*
Yes, the case is slightly heavy and bulky if you compare it to the Spigen Liquid Air. But on the plus side it provides adequate protection against accidental drops and what not smile.gif

I just bought ip12 pm, after 2 days using it feels very heavy in the hand. I mean really heavy. I am using rock transparent casing and tempered glass. How can i improve the weight? Could it be my rock transparent casing that causes this? When i hold the iphone at my hand, after few minutes, my hands starts to feel tired especially when playing games.
*
It’s a heavy phone. When you’re at home and on the bed and there’s minimum risk, trying using the phone without the case. If it still feels heavy and unmanageable after a while, then it’s not a case problem.

Have you tried contacting Apple Support and asking them if that is normal? I don’t think the leather should look that bad just after 3 months or so..

Kuo: 2022 iPhone Pro model to come with punch-hole selfie camera, iPhone SE 5G coming.
A new report from long-time Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo of TF International Securities cites Apple supply chain sources regarding two changes to Apple’s 2022 lineups of iPhones. Kuo is expecting that that the successor to this year’s iPhone Pro model next year may ditch the notch and use a punch-hole camera cut-out in its display.

Might not be what you use to charge the phone but could also be what you use it for. Do you play games?

Nope i dont play game.

Recently i installed iOS 14.5 beta, and then factory reset my phone 4-5 times within 2-3 weeks due to some issue.
does it affect battery health?
*
No it doesn’t. Battery degradation can sometimes be sped up by overheating, so if you usually keep your phone cool there shouldn’t be any unusual degradation. 1% really is normal in a few months.

QUOTE(TOMEI-R @ Mar 4 2021, 11:55 PM)
Yes. But it will make your phone look dated when all the other flagships are single pin hole camera or full screen.
*
I’m not really a big fan of punch holes actually, but yeah, the under display front camera will be interesting when it gets here.

Hi guys!
I bought this from Lazada. Looks exactly like the original Mag-Save one. The only difference is the price. So much cheaper. The original one by Mag-Save is around RM217 including shipping and the one from Lazada is RM63 including shipping. I hope I made a good choice. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Anyone here already using this?

Do share your experience with it when it arrives.

Anyone feel 12 pro max display color very dull? I compare other ppl phone side by side, even cheap oled phone more vibrant than iPhone. Note 20 ultra no need say already, top 1 best color.

It’s intentionally tuned that way to look closer to real life. You can tweak it by turning off True Tone and making some adjustments in the Display and Accessibility settings but ultimately it won’t be as vibrant as that on Samsung’s flagships coz their philosophy is different.
