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! CC attw Attached thumbnail(s)

QUOTE(attw @ Feb 23 2021, 10:02 AM) 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! Yeah I noticed this round their delivery is way faster. 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  [attachmentid=10795373]  Looks like it will be kept in wraps until May then 😝 QUOTE(ape @ Feb 23 2021, 10:05 AM) I received my rustic brown case too and quickly placed an order for oxford blue moft magsafe wallet... Nice! Let us know your thoughts on the Moft Wallet once you have it. QUOTE(Anonymous26 @ Feb 23 2021, 04:27 PM) Hmm, the price is super steep for a phone case, and in fact it's the first time I heard about this brand, any good about it? Mous’s casing are quite tough, heck even better than that overrated Casetify ones. Price wise, it’s on the premium side, but it’s worth it. I’m waiting for the Limitless 4.0 to reach our shores.Good casing aren’t cheap, you get awesome quality and never worry about dropping your phone. |

Please suggest based on: The affordable: The middle ground: The lux: Thanks! 1) Its gonna affect the camera quality 2) Sapphire glass is strong enough to withhold scratches and dinks 3) Better use the money for a better casing |

QUOTE(Newgen @ Feb 24 2021, 12:35 PM) Thanks for the input! Yup especially when there’s a light reflection, even without the lens cover, so I don’t suggest a lens cover at all.Photo quality is really quite crucial since the camera is good. That's gonna be a shame if it affects it eh. Having IT'SKIN Supreme|Solid and Spigen Rugged Armour (daily driver) I guess I'm good for now. BTW, seems no love for Spigen on 12PM eh? I've been using Spigen Rugged Armour since my OP3T till now in all phones. I’ll do fine, never had issues with my lenses at all from the years of owning an iPhone. Been a loyal Spigen user up until iPhone 11 PM, then I stopped because of the drop in quality, and there’s better options out there that looks way better too. Apple makes some quality 1st party cases as well, might want to consider, alongside the rest like Mous, Otterbox, Rhinoshield, Nomad etc. |

QUOTE(attw @ Feb 25 2021, 10:11 AM) 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... Haha yeah trying to psycho her since Apple won the patent for 240hz display haha. iPhones last 5 years, definitely no issue if you can hang on to the phone for that long  I saw the Nomad leather strap at Machines yesterday - over RM300! Hehehe... 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(Dozz @ Mar 3 2021, 11:23 AM) I'm using Magsafe wireless charger daily too but my battery health has dropped to 99% now Hmm usually I will charge it until full then remove, but occasionally do overcharge as well.  while my friends still remain 100% like yours. They use cable to charge only Do you charge once daily as well? My suggestion is to not be too worried about the battery, just use normally - can always replace the battery at a decent price after years / months of usage. |

QUOTE(EdwinCodec @ Mar 11 2021, 01:29 PM) With such Apple's price, I would rather go Nomad. But this one you need to use your own puck - means you are connecting to 2 power source - 1 for puck, one for Base Station. https://nomadgoods.com/products/base-statio...ple-watch-mount Alternatively can wait for the Belkin Magsafe charger - pretty cool. |

QUOTE(turbohkp @ Mar 14 2021, 08:19 AM) 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. By best color you meant saturated? Color profiles do varies by manufacturers - I prefer my display to show me the most accurate colors rather than bumping up contrast and saturation to make the colors ‘pop’. RGB profiles such as P3 are proprietary Apple’s - it gives you an accurate benchmark of color profiles like Adobe RGB etc. Now you wouldn’t want to watch a video intended to be x color profile to be overly blasted with yellow / red tones now don’t we? Apple’s color profile is amongst the most accurate in the industry. |

Appleboi since iPhone 4s, still remember getting my hands on one during my college days - instantly got hooked and worked part time to save enough for a Macbook Pro and iPad. Been moving alot of phones in between the years, Samsung Galaxy Note, S series, Nexus, Pixel etc. Last last still went back to iOS - will stay this way for more years to come, too invested in the ecosystem to move out already. de_ghost liked this post

I don’t splurge on Casetify casing, but this one is just too good to pass up.
It’s pretty thick and heavy, compared to most of the TPU cases that I owned, heck even heavier than my Nomad leather casing. Attached thumbnail(s)

QUOTE(attw @ Apr 26 2021, 12:56 PM) For me it was the Jet Black 7 Plus. Loved it to bits! 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 |

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. IMF2025 liked this post

QUOTE(fruitie @ Apr 27 2021, 06:20 PM) You can use the double tap or triple tap function to enable it. Don't know about you but that double/triple tap method is always a hit and miss for me - every time when I use it it either fails or works fine. Unlock with Apple Watch and double/triple tap your phone. Now I just pull down the home screen and it will be always the first-few apps (suggested) - way better than the back tap for me la |

QUOTE(fruitie @ Apr 28 2021, 01:10 AM) I was just suggesting but I am not using it. Woah Assistive Touch, it’s been awhile lol! I stopped using that since they removed the Home button. It always double tap for me when it’s put on table. Now I am using double tap to access control center and not using triple tap. At least it opens control center and not any app. At first I used it for screenshot and kept taking screenshots for me. Now I long press Assistive Touch for screenshots, works well for me.QUOTE(attw @ Apr 28 2021, 08:26 AM) 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… Haha the vibration is pretty sudden, but I doubt you can remove it but perhaps adjust the vibration intensity to reduce the sudden ‘jab’ at your wrist. 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. 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 Is the wifi logo disabled or enable your watch? The wifi logo on the watch is not really ‘wifi’ but a connection to your phone - I tried it outdoors without wifi and it works. |
