The mallard actually makes it look like a fake UAG copy lol . Not to mention how fingerprints and oils are super visible on it. Welp , can't exactly refund it. But its something to keep in mind of in the future.
*
Hahaha, I agree. The Mallard looks a bit off when compared to the Ash and Ice colours of the UAG. Oh well, lesson learnt.

I purchased iPhone 12 Pro in January, but now prefer bigger screen of 12 Pro Max, is there any venue that I can sell this iPhone 12 Pro so I can buy 12 Pro Max?

What's a suitable price to sell this newly used iPhone 12 Pro?
*
Can try to advertise in our garage sale or on Carousell if anyone with a Pro Max wants to trade as well. As a guideline, deduct 400-500 off the cheapest price you can find on online platforms for a new set.

i dont think will have major changes...
apple is famous for the slow incremental changes...

klangboy83 should sell off his current phone for the best value he can get back... plus now 12 pro max already having discount... unless he can wait for ip13 then he can wait for then...

on another topic, can someone tell me which is better and have used the items below :-

I'm having dilemma between Aukey LC-A3 3 in 1 AirCore Wireless Charging Station Stand Charging Dock (RM139) and toroz 3 in 1 Wireless Charger for iPhone Apple Watch AirPods Pro Fast-Charge (MFi Certified) RM112

Aukey need the apple watch charger while Toroz is fully built in.

I'm having dilemma to choose between them.
*
I’d pick Aukey since it’s a more established brand of the two, but having the built in Apple Watch charger is nice, I noticed most third party docks/stands don’t include that, only a slot for you to place the original one in it.

Last time I am being called a pandan because I feel 12 Pro Max is heavy on the hand. After 2 months using, now I am get used to it already! Nice phone overall! I bought slimcase.co cases and it's really nice and slim and ultra light too. smile.gif

QUOTE(moniqee @ Apr 23 2021, 11:36 PM)
pro max can really feel the weight... and i'm coming from 7+
but yeah the time will make one to be used to the weight  brows.gif  brows.gif
*
If you were using the iPhones with aluminium back (5 to 7) or the smaller ones like X, XS then ya, the difference when moving to the 12 Pro Max in terms of size and weight could be uncomfortable. But you will get used to it after a while and the bigger screen and battery is worth the trade off to me biggrin.gif

I remember dissing it (iPhone 7+) for being too huge which I subsequently skipped the 7 and held on to my 6s until I switched to the X - but then ended up with 11 Pro Max and 12 Pro Max.

Now I cant go back to small phones haha
*
Actually I can live with a smaller phone too like the iPhone X or iPhone 12 - if only Apple would put a much bigger battery in them, hahaha...

I don't like the rounded edge. I love the square/box edges, feels more solid and looks good too! biggrin.gif

Then you probably love the 12 series since it's a throwback to the days of the 5 and 5S smile.gif

Updated my phone but yet to update my Watch. Looks like unlocking the phone automatically with my mask on will have to wait another day laugh.gif

Where can you get UAG civilian or Spigen cases, physical stores, not online ones.
*
Machines or Switch should have UAG in abundance, but not sure about Spigen. I spoke to a Machines staff last year and he told me they've stopped selling Spigen some time ago due to a dispute with the local distributor.

Do they mark up their prices?
UAG civilian is around RM169 on the internet, how about privacy tempered glass?
*
No, it’s at retail price. You do get some discount coupons or vouchers online, but not at retail, of course. I’ve not seen any UAG privacy tempered glass there before though.

Well, you’ll have to pay RM12 to be their PlusOne member if you’re not one already, but yes, it’s free.

Also, if not mistaken, they used to charge something like RM80 or so additional for instalment payment on Apple products - not sure if they still do.

My iPhone 12 Pro Max is dead!

Last week my phone suddenly shut down itself! I plug the phone into charger, computer (itunes) but still unable to wake it up. I sent the phone back to service centre and hopes Apple going to replace me a new unit. Yesterday i received a call from local service centre, they told me Apple repaired my phone by replacing the "rear system" (changed almost everything except LCD and rear camera). The phone is on the way back to me now.

Should i accept the repaired phone? or request Apple replace a new one?  Any opinion will be appreciated.

Which service centre did you go to?

Updated both and so far so good. Unlocking the phone with the Apple Watch is definitely a neat trick! My wife wants an Apple Watch now, hahaha…

QUOTE(andrewtho @ Apr 27 2021, 02:06 PM)
iOS14.5 with the mask + Apple watch unlock is pretty neat!

You don't even need to do anything to unlock it from your watch, just unlock and BAM! unlocked, very similar experience to Macbook unlock.
*
Yup, love it! Is there a way to get the Watch not to vibrate though when it unlocks? It’s a small annoyance, hehehe…

Most cases with clear backs are fingerprint magnets.

Is UAG civilian really worth the price? The UAG cases are getting more and more expensive, or maybe it’s just MYR getting weaker.
*
Some folks will argue no branded case is ever worth the price, hahaha. Up to individual preference and spending power, I guess.

QUOTE(yayiyu99 @ Apr 28 2021, 08:44 AM)
I cannot unlock my phone with apple watch if my wifi is off.  It remind me to "Turn on Wi-Fi to unlock with Apple Watch". Anyone has this problem? I tought the bluetooth connection is enough already
*
Why would you turn WiFi off? I’d just leave it on, don’t think it’ll help reduce battery consumption by much by turning it off.

Who knows I might jump ship back to Android biggrin.gif

I’m the opposite, might leave Android for good, hahaha… Using a Redmi Note 10 Pro as my work phone now and the experience isn’t good - but that’s a discussion for a different thread!

No la, those branded ones really have difference. I mean even Spigen and Ringke are better than any of the no brands one. But I always use Spigen la, so quite bored with it already. Haha!
*
Yes, but not everyone has that same point of view, hahaha.. I find Spigen and Ringke to be very good value for money, especially their midrange offering. UAG, Otterbox, and Mous are a level up.

Hey all, my phone is connected to AW and i realised that all the notifications are muted on my phone. As in my phone doesn't ring at all (not on silent mode, side button is not in the red); only my AW will vibrate. Why ah? I don't remember setting it not to ring. Like notifications from Grab, Lazada, they don't ring. Even though I never set them to be on silent.

It's by design.
