What's a good, non-clear MagSafe cover guys? I went to a few retail stores yesterday and saw very limited options - mostly clear covers. (Please don't recommend Apple original cases, hehehe... I budgeted RM150 or lower)
*
Not sure about MagSafe or not but I bought UAG armour case in apple retail store. Bought from switch. Dropped my ip13 from shoulder height, was walking and talking, wave my hands and knock it off my hand, fell down several times, no damage at all. However, one con is its not slim and can be heavy. But hey, rather have a heavy iPhone than one with shattered glass back or shattered screen.

UAG plasma case RM139

Guys, do yall really maintain your battery life between 20% to 80% (Not charging it after 80%)  in order to maintain the battery life? I'm curious. (IP 13)

Dont so mafan. How much battery you can save anyway. 1 year extra? Smartphone is suppose to give us convenience, seeving our needs. Just fully charge only. Then after 3-4 years then change battery.

hello, any recommendations of a temperred glass brand. blend of quality & price.
i know one one end you got quality but ex ones like Spigen cost rm80+, then on other end got cheap quality china ones rm2.
any decent price in between that is quality from your experience? am sure spigen probably just rebrand better quality china-made ones. so if anyone know of a cheaper spigen, do share!
or especially ones that got a kit to help have perfect fitting!

I used to believe cheap tempered glass is better than expensive, cheap break just buy another new cheap TG.
However, a friend recommended me to use Panzer glass brand.

I bought panzer glass from IT world and they applied for me on spot. It will cost a fortune. around 100+ one. but i never have to replaced since oct 2021 and it still looks brand new. really worth to buy expensive one. dropped numerous times on floor but never cracked or have visible scratches or crack. wished i can take photo to show but i only have one iphone.

currently my set up is UAG plasma armour and panzer glass TG. UAG plasma armour kinda beaten up and look terrible cuz the plastic get a lot of hairline scratches but my TG is still looking great. both item i started using since OCT 2021.

thanks for recommending. i just watched his video - https://youtu.be/Knv5_zc8ghA

but basically he says, either got for the cheapest one and just replace everytime when it breaks... or just get the high end premium diamond/saphire/vibranium one if you really want the standout quality
*
actually his test not good. normal ppl wont drop brick on their phones. only drop phone and screen crack. he should do a drop test instead of a brick test. a bit biased. from day to day use, if a high quality one can last for 1 year without breaking or showing scratches, i would go for it instead of changing cheap one every 2 months. the money spent on both method probably the same in the long run but the experience you get from an expensive one is so cool and minus the hassle to go shop keep changing new one.

im a careless user and often drop my phone 2-3 times per month. nothing has occured to my iphone ever since. but do noted that maybe my casing is the reason the phone is well protected so i gave my casing model to let you know as well

The paint around the camera lens is easy to get chipped?

I just chipped mine using just my nail. Saw some dust and lint near the camera lens, try to clean it, then I found that the paint gone.
*
yes. thats why u can buy this camera lens protector to protect. i bought and apply by self. easy and cheap.

i mean, what kind of material does apple use for the camera outer ring thingy? i thought it was supposed to be aerospace grade aluminium? even my taobao pc case wont have their paint chipped from nail scratch.

no idea. they are getting more and more fragile imo. i got mine chipped a few spots then only realize then just buy the mentioned protector to prevent from further spots. haha.

just got screen protector that gives camera protector as well. this thing attracts dust and fingerprints too easily. and it looked funny. camera flash also become reflected inside the glass.

maybe ill try for a week. after that im yolo.

edit: okay i think i can safely say that tempered glass on the camera is a bad idea. picture doesn't come out right due to reflection from the glass. flash photo become weird.

the exact same camera protector from my link? mine has no issues so far.

currently looking for a suitable phone case.
Would you be willing to share the type of phone case you use and how long you've had it?
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance!♥♥

UAG armour plasma series. Since Oct 2021. Still unbreakable now. Only cons is heavier a bit and slightly bulky but totally reliable. Once fell down and sit on my butt, phone placed on back pocket, seated right on top and phone turns out fine. Thought the glass back will be shattered but all is well. Totally recommend this.
