I think leather cases are nice… if you take care of them…. hahaha…

I used Nomad leather case with my 12 Pro Max previously and they tend to scratch very easily.. also, kenot kena water.. otherwise… very ugly…

scratch is indeed a problem with soft leather case
but water not so problematic as you can dry them
anyway leather case do intend to age, thus have the aged look, mostly due to moisture and wear.
i like the feel, but for cheaper solution i always but 3rd party black silicone cases.
so much easier to take care & maintain cool2.gif and cheap!!

Still considering between the pro and non pro model, does the usb 3 actually have a faster charging speed than the regular usb 2? Or just transfer speed difference?
*
Only transfer speeds, charging speed should be no difference, if not mistaken.
If you don’t need USB C, can consider a 14 Pro/Pro Max on discount now, I think it would be a better buy than the non-Pro 15…

The usb-c 3 from epal is dayem expensive as expected at  RM399.

Whats the different time to fully charge compare to Usb-c 2?
Whats the best price around? Worth to buy?

That's not a normal USB-C cable - that's a Thunderbolt certified cable. Meant for professionals using Macs and iPads that need transfer files at 40Gbps speeds.

iPhone 15 Pro doesn't support Thunderbolt, only USB3 (up to 10Gbps speeds). So you can get a cheaper USB3 data cable from any reputable manufacturer like the Anker Powerline III.

Alternatively, you can still get a Thunderbolt cable (or USB4, which is cheaper but similar speeds) like this Anker one and that will future proof you down the line in case Apple decides to add Thunderbolt support in future models

It’s going to be my first time transferring to a new iPhone. I want to know what happens when I turn on the iPhone 15 PM later and logged in with my Apple ID? I will be picking up my phone from a physical store and head straight to Digi for eSIM transfer to new phone. Will it work by the time? Or do I need to have everything transferred only can apply for eSIM? I have tons of stuff on iCloud and gonna take very long time to transfer I supposed?
*
best way is to just use the USB-C to lightning cable from your old iPhone. Connect the Lightning end to old phone and USB-C end to new phone and it will allow you to do the transfer over the cable which should be faster

Of course you can do it later at home.

So I turn on and login to Apple ID, then skip everything to activate my eSIM? Then go back home only do the transfer? How do I trigger this part again? I’m sorry for the many questions because I don’t want to screw up the process.

I didn’t know this. So, I need to endure both phones are fully charged or will be cut off if no battery. sweat.gif
Again the question is can I login with Apple ID to activate the phone to transfer my eSIM then only perform all these?

Yeah, you can login Apple ID to activate your phone & scan the eSIM QR code. No worries.

If you login with Apple ID to transfer eSIM and skip all the setup, you will only get data from old phone that is using iCloud. Some apps's settings or login state will not transfer over. What you can do then is to erase the phone again to factory, while choosing to keep the eSIM instead of erasing it also. The setup process will recognise the stored eSIM and offer to use that.

I personally don't recommend that though. Much more advisable to just go home with the phone and the eSIM QR code, do the 1:1 transfer over cable and then take the eSIM QR code and activate it.

If anybody claims to have pre-ordered a unit then they would be bluffing. Pre-order starts on the 15/09 for first tier countries.

Nah, the main reason I'm opting for my first iphone is because of the type c connector, even my iPad has type c, don't see the reason for me to have the lighting cable when everyone is moving forward with type c.
Now I might be leaning towards the pro models but at the same time still feel like 15 is good enough...

So, your advice is transfer everything first then only finally do eSIM? Digi needs to go Digi Centre to get the QR code. I'm not sure if they can give me the QR code first and I keep it until I need it. sweat.gif laugh.gif

In case you want to order from Maxis, you can register your interest now
https://www.maxis.com.my/en/devices/apple/iphone/

*One of the FAQ:
My mobile line is currently tied to a device contract, can I still pre-order?

Only mobile lines with less than a 1 month remaining contract period will be able to pre-order online.

If your remaining contract period is MORE than 1 month, you will need to terminate your contract before you can pre-order.
*
Term and condition....those who using old line ... need to upgrade to their new package of 5G in order for zerolution to work
im not going to order from maxis due to their annoying message reminder each time restart phone
