is the mous case heavy and bulky compared to those clear case like spigen liquid crystal/hybrid ultra ?

Me too, but I’ve been trying to listen very hard for the crackling sound on mine and can’t really hear it, hahaha..
Best option is still to walk in and ask them… Giving them your name and number is kinda useless

Wahhhh… 3 1/2 month!! Then it’ll be my new year phone. Better get ip14. Hahah.

Hmm, good idea. Oh, mine definitely eligible - manufactured in March 2020.
Hahaha, good one!

Review on hoda Sapphire Screen Protector and Lens Protector.
Installation wise, I consider myself quite skillful as always DIY, but this round feel slightly tricky due to glue much more sticky than usual tempered glass screen protector and leads to tiny air bubbles trapped easily while apply. Need extra time to perform some adjustment to get rid of bubbles.
Lens Protector totally no issue, clean wipe stick and apply then settle.

After 2 days usage, fingerprints not obvious, surface smooth like butter. Overall very satisfied with hoda Sapphire products

Actually it kinda depends on your luck also because small town usually get less allocation of units compared to the bigger cities with higher demand as well. I was in a small town on the day of the iPhone 11 series launch and couldn’t get the 256GB Midnight Green Pro Max from maxis at that time as they didn’t have allocation.
Hahaha - I can’t stand this too. Especially at a queue for food. Drives me nuts!
I think tonight’s event is just Macs and the regular AirPods. I’m eyeing a MBP too… my 2014 MBA still runs great but will not receive MacOS Monterey or beyond. Will probably pass it to my son as he starts secondary school next year. I’ve been hesitant about the M1 MacBooks coz they no longer have Bootcamp. My MBA runs both macOS and Windows and it’s a great option to have. But I suppose the insane battery life of the M1 MacBooks is a good trade off and I suppose you can get Parallel if really need Windows.
I tried a friend’s WF XM3 and even that already had better sound quality and ANC than the AirPods Pro, bro. But in terms of comfort, the AirPods Pro wins for me. How about the XM4? Are they comfortable during prolonged usage?
Wow, you’re getting a 1TB phone? Are you gonna use it for a lot of video shooting and content creation?

May I know in term of touch feeling, does the sapphire one have much different compare to the normal tempered glass?

jst collected my unit from senheng.. 2nd batch..

 

Actually it's very hard to tell the difference.. But after paying a hefty amount you will naturally feel better on the sapphire.. But if given 2 devices with sapphire and normal, the differences are minimal.

My take though, the sapphire oleophobic coat will last longer, say after 6-7 months it still feel like brand...while the normal ones feel a little rough compared to day 1..but you can always install a new one, still cheaper than paying for sapphire..

I’m using the hoda clear tempered screen protector. The touchscreen surface is a joy to use. There are close to no finger print smudges. The oleophobic coat surface is easy to clean and remains smooth.
  However, I’m suffering from the glossy glare even indoors. It gets worse if it’s outdoor. I usually put screen brightness at 30%.
  Do you guys think if the matte or sapphire version would be better in this sense?

If the glossy glare is an issue then you can opt for matte instead.. To me is the opposite as I find the matte hard to see.. So I always get clear for all my devices

Matte= blurry

I did...but you know .....iphone was hot cake when launch and everywhere was out of stock....took me 1 1/2 just to manage to get from maxis ...that alone just running from centre to centre 1days apart....
Haha....3 1/2 month by then all the iphone stock is normalize already that why the call and ask....

Before handling to them, ask first how much labor cost has to pay?

I think if issue found after testing they will replace for u for free and no labor cost also. But if just checking only and found no issue might have some labor fee to pay. Around RM50 like that.

Better confirm first and then decide you want them to check or not. But if really notice got sound issue definitely just send in to check.

May not be comfortable for small ears tho. Tapi personally to me no issue

Anyone purchased Casetify case before? Are Casetify cases worth it?

I think they look like normal casings with premium price tag.. not too convinced with their protection.. For the same price can get much better brand imo

I claimed it through Mac City 1 Utama service centre last week. Can't replace on the spot, they will send your unit to test. It's about 1 week time to collect the replacement.
