Hi sifu-situ sekalian, tumpang tanya

So I upgraded from X to 13 Pro Max last month.

All is well, but I noticed my 13 is starting to collect what I would think are my sweat residuals at the microphone location on top of the FaceId module.

To be exact, there are white specks caught between the seam between the steel border and the microphone.

Any idea how we can clear these unsightly stains? I tried using cotton bud and my gf’s makeup brush (a new one) but to no avail.
*
try using RM 1 note to slide into the seam and clear it out... i do that sometimes to clear the dusts.

A15 has so much performance headroom that you can turn on low power mode to game to ensure low power draw and steady fps.

Have been using android for last 5 years. Tempted to switch... any android user switched and very satisfied?

I scared I can't survive without YouTube vanced and fingerprint scanner
*
My last android was note 5, once i switched to iphone, never looked back (still has a huawei as backup).

FaceID works much more seamlessly than fingerprint (as long as u dont have a mask on lol), and I have been using Youtube premium with their music as well (family sub is so cheap.)

The beauty of iOS is not any one feature, but rather the entire system as a whole.

The back button is for you to close the app or go back to the previous page. What has it got anything to do with IOS apps being optimized?  shakehead.gif You gotta be kidding me.

i find swiping from the left very intuitive especially when it works in most apps (some google apps still dont follow this)

In some apps, like WhatsApp during viewing media and settings, you have to tap the back button. The swipe left gesture won’t work

Later I try faceid
Next wish list smile.gif
But you shouldn’t need another device to unlock phone better in the first place. No device is perfect after all
*
When you view media, u can just swipe down to exit.

Unlock with Apple Watch is quite magical in this era, but the watch has a lot more uses too, a fashion piece (with the straps), health monitor, extension of your phone that follows you everywhere (im not as reliant on my phone now since i can check/reply/dismiss notification on my watch)

Coming from samsung watch active my aw7 can last 1.5-2 days with default settings. I sometimes reply whatsapp thru the watch during meeting and call during charging my phone
*
i know right, notification on the watch is a big thing, made me use my phone way less now.

welcome to the club smile.gif graphite is also one of the popular classic colour, I would say its the popular colour along with the colour of the year in almost every model thus far...

yea I disable truetone the first thing too even on iPads lol, can't tahan the yellowish screen lol..I didn't use the back tap feature coz I've been living with the assistive touch virtual button over the years..and I only use it for Lock Screen/volume/ screenshot..and it was a very important feature back then due to home button durability, so its used mainly for the virtual home button function smile.gif
*
i thought im the only one that use assistive touch to screenshot/lock my phone haha

Hi, recently got a new ip13pm for my wife. I noticed the display is warmer/yellowish compared tp my existing ip11.. searched this thread no one talk about yellow tint issue. Just want to get opinion here, do you think yours also possessing warmer dipslay? Whether i should send this back to get replacement
*
1. turn off true tone

2. ip11 has cooler display (almost 7000k) vs iphone 13 6400k (which is actually closer to 6500k).

if you wish to adjust it further you can go to accessibility setting and tweak the colour to your liking.

I just checked my battery health, so fast it dropped to 99% laugh.gif

Dah la I only use the slow charging cable, wondering if it's a bug or something coz it was 100% few weeks ago before updating the iOS.
*
did you use the phone under the sun / any other hot environment? heat is the biggest enemy of batteries.

Anyways you may try restarting your phone and the battery health may be reset also.

I love to organize my pics by folder like for example "Travel" folder, then "USA", "UK", "Japan" etc.. sub folders in it. I know that it is easy to do that on Android phone but it seems impossible on an iPhone
*
Google photos/ iPhone album all have been having really good organized features based on location/date, or even person in the photos. All the data in the photos can be used to identify by using AI and machine learning. gone are the days where we have to go through each and every photo to sort thru and put in the folder. Now we just have to search "KLCC" or "coffee" or click the person in the album/date period, then all the relevant photos will appear.

I bought IP13P 128GB 1st Dec ago, so today has been 29 days of using it. If I were to sell it off, how much will I get back?

I keep telling myself it’s a good phone, but I didn’t feel like it at all. So how much loss I’ve to bear if I sell it off?
*
you can try searching in Carousell, iPhone 13 Pro 128GB like new/well used.
provided your phone is in mint condition, and you provide all the necessary accessories, the price shouldnt be too low since it hasnt been too long from the release. expect 10-20% drop.

10% drop would be lucky but UNLIKELY. for such a tiny discount, ppl might as well get new set with 0% instalment plan, or telco.
*
RM 500 discount with a mint condition 1 month old iPhone with all the accessories + perhaps a few good cases is a good deal. iPhone holds their resell value extremely well

in fact, i just sold my iPhone 12 Pro Max 128GB for RM3900 last month, which is a drop of 27% as compared to the ori price (RM 5300)

compare to other lagdroids, iphones got much higher resell value.

I was kinda regret i dint get the Apple watch duel straps, anyone know where can i find in Penang?

The Uniq Aspen braided straps i bought, it started to loosen after just 2 weeks (1 of the strand loosen, causing it to be uneven).

I bought from Uniq.my shopee official store, and their customer service is lousy. Told them my issues, then they ask me to stretch it more (which didnt help at all, only worsens it). Then say no warranty and because it arrived to me without issue so they cant help. sounds like even they have no confidence in their own product... haiz

I have experience this as well, used to come from unknown numbers (our number could have been leaked to these scammer/bots)

Nowadays its mostly from random email address, spamming sms/IM about company hiring (their new tactic in scamming)
