Got my pro max cover from ESR which they sent with free screen protector and camera lens protector. But the screen protector is for 12pro max. It wont fit right?
*
Did you ask for refund? I bought an ESR case and guess what they gave me one 12/12 Pro & another 12 Pro Max screen protector for free. The problem is I asked for iPhone 13 Pro Max only.

When you buy from Apple store online, are you check out as guest or using Apple ID?

My friend checked out as guest, no email/sms, but check to order detail, it shows "shipped".
*
I use my own Apple ID and my shipment stated very clearly “arrives 29/10/2021 - 08/11/2021”

First, CC pending with the payment and today found out is gone, but the Apple Store still shows in the processing.

Literally, nobody purchase from Apple Store get shipment longer than me.

Yup, unfortunately during the pre order time, my debit card is declined for me to proceed any payment. Maybe I never use it and I usually use cash only.

Yeah mine could have had that issue, which was why in the morning of the preorder day I tested by purchasing a charger lol. It didn't work and I had to enable ecommerce, only then it worked.

Refunded the charger the moment it changed to processing.

Will disable ecommerce again once Apple actually charges my account.

Good for you. Last year I asked my brother in SG to pre order for me since he’s coming back to Malaysia around October so everything is easy for me.

This year is a totally different story. By the way, I did purchase a charger and ear tips before through the Apple Store MY. Guess what, both items are shipped from SG. LPPL!

Not buying from maxis, but it seems this method is not supported by Maxis. Have to make a trip to Maxis to get a new QR code…..

Seriously? Like that is so troublesome because my Maxis account is not under my name.

I got ESR clear case... looks nice

https://shopee.com.my/ESR-Phone-Case-for-iP...392.12509656566

they gave free screen protector and camera protector but unfortunately the screen protector is 12PM instead of 13PM..
*
Yeah, I bought the same, but I still think Ringke is more worth than ESR. There’s no option for matte version.

Thanks for the recommendations. So brands like ringke and ESR can only get it online? Was thinking to drop by Machines to get SP tomorrow but think Machines might have limited options for casing.
*
Yup, grab it from Lazada, Shopee or even Taobao.

Try search for Bodyguardz. Their sp is good and they have clear case as well.

I am still looking for a clear case which won’t turn yellowish after a while of usage. Do post update after a while see if your case gets yellowish or not. Thanks.

Try Bodyguardz, Casetify or Mous. FYI, impossible won’t yellowish. Can prolong only!

Anyone experience the 13pro battery drains so fast especially browsing social media and shopee/lazada?

Is it because it is a new phone and transfer from old phone to new phone, Apple needs time to index and thus consuming the battery?


Some say after upgraded to 15.01, the battery drains normally but i ady updated and still feel the same  sad.gif
*
Try to turn on the low power mode.

Oh no.. now I don't dare to go 15.0.1 to test out... its actually quite scary and not the first time getting this issue... I saw it from day 1 but though it was my mistake.. Today further confirms it when I did a few more restart

Anyone care to test it and see if you guys got such issue as well?
*
What’s your battery health? If you’re so concerned about it, then bring your phone and let them check your battery charge cycles. Eg. My bro stayed in SG would like to change new battery for his 12PM (battery health 91%) but they did found out the cycle count is around 3xx considered still quite healthy.

Why not try to update the latest? FYI, Apple stops signing iOS 15.0 following iOS 15.0.1 release. C’mon, no harms.

Mous Limitless 4.0 in the house.

Feels heavier than my UAG Pylo case - but the build feels solid and firm. The Aramid Fibre plate at the back is smooth - like a rubberized texture.

Interesting enough that the top and bottom front face of the case is raised higher than the middle part - probably for impact protection, but a little too ‘raised’ for my liking.
*
I’m using Mous 3.0 limitless Aramid Fibre as well. Yes, the both side middle part is lower and the side seamless feel is great when holding, but unfortunately is slightly on the heavier side.

The middle part is lower for a reason, even though the case has few cons which I literally hated it. AFAIK, you really can’t find another case is getting such a design.
