The official website mentions a 14% discount, but when you check out, you don’t see anything. However, if you purchase an items up to USD$99.99, it states that the item will come with one mystery gift.

The mystery gift is the old version Magez Grip 2. Unfortunately the design given is random, but not bad for a free gift.

What prob was on ur phone? I never have any prob with most of the apple products also. Only MacBook Pro 2017 had battery bloated prob but I had replaced the battery at Apple Orchard for 3 times and all 3 times were free becos of the butterfly keyboard known issue also. Although my keyboard had no prob but Becos keyboard and battery are stocked together so I could claim for battery by claiming that keyboard has prob.

His problem is the defective camera sensor at high ISO/long exposure setting showing green patches. Only happens if you take very low light photography like astrography.

Your test was not really done correctly. You need to completely shield the whole camera from noise. Example hide it in a drawer, cover it with blankets or in a dark room inside a building with no windows.

I have dreams and plans to do milky way photography and also northern lights. If you’ve been to these scenes you will know it’s dark until your eyes cannot actually see the stars and the milky way. Same as you cannot really see the aurora, need extreme long exposure time on camera. Both will be ruined had I relied solely on the 16 pro. 😡
*
For Milky Way & Northern lights using a proper camera would yield a significantly better result than relying on a phone. For daylight shots the phone will do great, but for lowlight shots the phone is mainly for convenience. If you are serious in getting great shots after spending so much on traveling for northern lights I’d rely more on a camera than phone though.

You don’t deserve to bang wall. If anything it’s Tim Cook who should have his salary cut to pay our refund / returns. But it’s not happening.

Now let’s look forward. I’m experimenting with apps. I like AstroShader and seems like it can also produce 30s shutter speed without the blue. With bonus of being auto stacking I think it’s a worthwhile free workaround.

Another method is to trade in your 16pm for “upgrade” at the switch if you really want to. Perhaps by dice roll it’s worth it to you to suffer 1k + loss…..to Tim.

Or trade it in for a pixel. It’s got the best astrophotography chops, max shutter time 4:30minutes!

You can try to contact Apple CS directly and ask to escalate to higher up. I did that with my MBP long ago around 2015 after sending in my laptop for screen repair, after 2-3 times still haven't fixed. I complained and requested for a new replacement and they agreed to it.

I see. Any cheap PC case? laugh.gif

I find TPU sides with PC back the best combination though. TPU offers more drop protection while the PC back doesn’t yellow.
But if you want cheap full PC, sanptoch is great.

Andrewtst Lego Warfare These two are Sanptoch hard cases right?

I can’t confirm since the description for both mentioned soft silicone military grade edge protection.

But this one I bought before is confirmed full PC

If you scroll further down it also says soft silicone edge. So I can’t guarantee it is 100% PC.

I believe it implies that the case is made of hard PC material with TPU along its edge (likely inside).

The one I bought which is all PC doesn’t have that soft silicone edge description at all. So easiest way to confirm is msging the seller 🤷🏻‍♂️

I checked my email again this year. The subject is "Happy Birthday! Here's a birthday treat from us 🎁" The sender is contact@machines.com.my.
You may check your inbox to see if there is such an email. I got it on the actual day of my birthday, not earlier or later.

Nope, just checked and nothing at all for the past 5 years... Their store membership service sucks then..

Do you need to spend even RM1 with them to maintain membership for next year? Or you still remain member & get RM50 bday voucher every year even if you don't buy anything from them every year whistling.gif

Anyone who has owned both AirPods 4 NC & AirPods Pro 2?
How do you find the Spatial Audio difference between the both?

Interested in the 4 NC, something different from my usual in-ears, but also worried about the fitting. Lazy to go TRX to try and also ordering from Apple online & returning if it doesn't fit well sweat.gif

Why not choose pro 2 since the differences is not much.

Mainly for comfort, in-ear vs on ear. I have no issues with my OG pro fitting since I've been using in-ears for decades, but tempted to try earbuds with decent ANC since comfort wise won't be tiring for my ear canals. That is assuming the AirPods 4 ergonomics can fit with my ear ergonomics sweat.gif

I see, for me I can't use any not pro series from Apple because it can't fit for my ear and will easily drop off. 😅

I had that issue with the wired AirPods as well! Since the later AirPods shape have changed compared to the wired AirPods shape, I'm hoping the fit is more secure this time...
