Kena tendang here and there within Shopee & SenHeng since last saturday.
But i guess i'd already see the light, will have attend to their nearest branch once they send a replacement unit to it.

why kena tendang with shopee? i thot shopee is very good with their return/refund policy hmm.gif i did it many times before, as long as u dont click order received u shud be able to activate the return/refund process without hassle, but if u edi click the order received button then theres nothing much shopee can do, its between u and seller only coz ur money already released to the seller, so alwaysx3 check ur items whether its fully functional before clicking the order received button huhu..

I can’t seem to export to Notes. How did you do it?

try select all and copy to notes then search, i did it that way my battery cycle is 117 and still at 100%
Edit: actually theres 2 battery cycle count as attched 117 n 123 not sure which one shud we refer to 😅

My charging pattern: charge at night before going to bed and once 100% I remove the charger immediately, and once a while charge during the day nvr let it overcharge beyond 100%, I use normal charging port and once a while use magsafe in the car mounted at the air vent.

My bad. I missed a step. I saved to Dropbox first then I export to Notes.
It is under the batterycyclecount. It is not too bad actually. You can change the battery after two years. It will gets you at least 4 years of peak usage. Won't that be about the right time to upgrade?  tongue.gif
*
Ic tq for this new info, nvr knew we could check the batter cycle count, so mine is 123 so around 129 the battery will drop 99% like fruitie's i supposed hmm.gif or will it depends on other factors as well like charging pattern, phone temp etc will see huhu

I would like to keep the battery performing well coz after 2 years will plan to sell it off and upgrade, last time my XS went down to 80% after 2 yrs and the selling price i got for the phone was very low, seems like the first question buyer will ask is the battery percentage laugh.gif

Mine is at 97. Probably battery health drops to 99% at about 95? I always charge it before it gets below 70%. Won't charge overnight. There are two things that I worry about. Simply overcharging and night thunderstorms. Heard is not good to get electronics device connected to the grid during thunderstorms. About once every fortnight I will get the battery down to less than 20% on purpose and charge it to 100%. I do it religiously on that too.  laugh.gif
*
wow 97 edi dropped to 99%? thats alot different tha me blink.gif means my charging pattern/temp control must be very good? laugh.gif anyways I'm aiming for 85% or above after 2yrs so I can sell it for a good price later, if I can achieve that i will be very happy rolleyes.gif

Besides the charging pattern and phone heat this may explain y some ppl with 97 battery cycle count has dropped to 99% while others at 261 is still at 100%, coz some ppl got higher battery capacity than others? laugh.gif

anyone did the jump from iphone Xs to iphone 12 pro? online reviews say that the upgrade is almost zero to minimal however i know that online sites are just using specs as a their indicator

but to those that did the switch - how was the overall experience? is it truly better or is the upgrade minor?
*
I came from XS now using pro max, for me the upgrade is alot, battery capacity (my XS battery running like water laugh.gif ), bigger screen size, camera n all the new jazz altho i dont use much of the camera tbh, magsafe function and beautiful new look (I prefer the flat edges reminds me alot of the iphone 4, 5 era) but it really depends on individual, some may think all these are meaningless upgrade laugh.gif

Hahaha - I went and bought the Mallard colour for my 12 Pro Max since it was a new colour and regretted. The micro scratches are more visible and the colour grows tiresome after a while. Should have stuck to the classic clear “Ice” colour.
Huge change in terms of camera technology and quality of photos, particularly for lowlight shots. Also, the 12 uses a SD modem instead of the XS’ Intel modem, hence cellular and WiFi signal strengths are better.
No, the 12 Pro Max battery will go further. I’ve used  both the 12 Pro Max and the 12 (which has the same battery capacity as the 12 Pro). You will easily get additional 3-4 hours standby and 1-2 hours of screen time  on the Pro Max.
I’ve had one with FB just yesterday. Not only did it crash spectacularly but it restarted my iPhone in the process laugh.gif

I dont see any improvement on this tho, 2 bars for digi cellular network in my area both for XS and 12 pro max rolleyes.gif

I miss tht blue screen from my XS rolleyes.gif its so much difference as compared to the the 12 pro max, as for the battery performance cn look at the data analytics (battery cycles, max battery capacity etc), it will explain y its still 100% smile.gif

does anyone know if the ESR cases have a deep enough front lip / bezel to protrude above a tempered glass?
I actually have the Air Armor case and after installing a tempered glass it is barely higher. Maybe 0.5mm only.

any other budget case that does this?
*
yup most of ESR cases are like tht, they even expose the side bezel which is a no no for me, u cn check my previous posts on this

TORRAS and RIngke fusion are budget cases tht I have tried n are much better than ESR

Any suggestion for magsafe compatible cases? I just bought the magsafe and my current spigen case dont work with it

For budget cases u can try mageasy from switheasy clear case if u dont mind about the yellowness (all TPU clear cases will yellow eventually) very solid, thick and durable, the magsafe works very well with the magsafe charger. No prob if u want to sanitise it as well.

Thank you. I restarted my phone and it’s working now thank god.

By the way, does charging via the MagSafe charger heats up your phone?
Yeah lo but they are pretty. Mine is a blue phone but I never even get to enjoy the color cause on UAG casing always. XD.
*
Yup I like to admire the beauty of my gold phone too n dont mind the yellowness of the casing laugh.gif so still using a clear case from switcheasy which is magsafe compatible huhuu an advantage of having the gold phone, the yellowness of the casing is less noticeable bcoz the phone itself is yellow lol rolleyes.gif

After about 7 days using this case, I found that the soft touch coating (actually a kind of TPU spray) peeled off on my case.

[attachmentid=10913924]

Out of sheer curiosity I msg'ed the seller in Lazada, and to my delight I got a replacement. Not only that, they actually gave me a voucher for whatever case I wanted, just pay RM0.10 to settle the transaction.

So I'm no waiting for my upgraded "Patronus" case. I feel lucky today.

TORRAS is like tht, they always giv u cases for free laugh.gif i got this case as an upgrade for free after I commented about their flimsy thin case huhuu
