With PM i decided to try out magsafe wireless charging. So far the best combo of case is supcase ( has awesome camera button, cut out is badc creates lag as ur finger has to be precise). Using EGO thermoelectric charger and keeps my phone cool. Nought sapphire screen protector then found flolab AR screen protector and god…. That AR screen makes the phone screen pops! Totally beautiful

Flolab supporter. High five. Yes the anti reflective coating is awesome.

The minor issue, Flolab acknowledged, they willing to provide replacement later once released. But honestly after apply sp, no issue for me.

There last 2 weeks i tried so many brands.  Hoda, x one, but only the AR one.. was wow!! Im surprised hardly anyone is talking about how AR is a game changer. Saw on shopee hoda also got AR but at the moment loving my flolabs AR
Psssstttt… best kept secret. HODA is good.. just that I was rocking sapphire version… minor drop, screen cracks. Only flolab withstand so far and got replacement. So bye bye HODA.

Ar shines even more in broad daylight..

Eh.. sifu didn’t take sunset? Team blue yay…. Been rocking this case for awhile now. My spigen and Apple silicone is neglected.


EDIT: just notice blue in another design.

It’s a scratch protection case… you can opt for the military grade version.



You know Pitaka version is good when others started to copy.

This kind of case is like that one, it can’t make button.

They is a button version but the texture feeling is different, with button one feel like the Aramid Fiber is blended inside the plastic. 😅
Sunset no stock everywhere, then try this actually look nice also. I will buy the sunset when have stock. 😊

I am surprise too, got some caveat or something. I don’t feel that’s the case while I been using. Been carrying power bank around. For 16pm battery life been excellent and yet to bring power bank till now. Also with usbc, can easily steal power bank from others. Hahaha

QUOTE(ace-user @ Oct 7 2024, 11:37 AM)
Anyone with the official clear case can give a bit of feedback? Is the case slippery? Cuz sometimes when my hands are sweaty or oily the spigen ultra hybrid T becomes a bit uncomfortable and ‘geli’ to hold sad.gif
*
Not sure how you define slippery. It’s clear case plastics (don’t know what other material), which there’s no pattern on case to allow “grip”. That’s to be expected if your hands are sweaty or oily.

You need to get cases with grooves or patterns to allow grip or case surfaces that’s not smooth type like clear case.

Now its Hoda vs Amazing thing... Kind of confused right now... Both is borderless and crystal clear??? Was always a hoda Fan but lately my 13 pro max changed few times due to poor quality. I always sit beside the apple staff and QC check and if not satisfied, will ask to change untill i satisfied.

Wanted to try other brands and seems like there i no best one.. I dont want to order online and stick myself as DIY always fails..
You will get it soon. Mine was completed 30/9/2024 and until 7/10/2024 (5th working day) my refund was not credited. Called apple and they mention 3 to 5 working days to process and another 7 to 14 working days for bank to credit depending on the merchant. To my surprise, i checked my bank this morning and the amount was credited.

So it takes more then 3 - 5 working days.

Flolab!!! But wait for new version release and need to order direct website unfortunately. Targeted mid October.

QUOTE(fruitie @ Oct 9 2024, 02:04 PM)
Hahaha or maybe Hoda is not good? I don't know la but AT is OK for me so far.

Sis… AT no anti reflective. AR is a game changer. Few brands has it.

Flolab do get very high rating but I haven’t try yet, it is freaking expensive!

Just click Watch on YouTube.

Rm174 + some shipping fees. If you view value proposition like it’s a screen protector + AppleCare. It’s worth it. And AR is really good.

Not many sp brand offer free replacement. Just pay shipping which is like usd 8. I used to use HODA sapphire for 13PM, crack so many times. Then switch flolab till now 16PM.


I strongly suggest choose any brand, go for AR. it’s really different.

QUOTE(akash @ Oct 9 2024, 07:23 PM)
Flolab have high rating. Last time wanted to buy and had reseller right if not mistaken. Now direct order only and quite expensive and i fail at DIY fixing, that is why was finding store so that can ready stick for me. Haha..

Haven't got my device yet but already excited to find TG. I have this tendency to apply TG while unboxing. Its like a habit of mine or can say OCD.
*
Now flolab got an installer frame thingie. Can’t get it wrong.

My ocd.. unbox immediately apply SP… don’t even turn on phone. Problem with this… if can’t turn on phone…. Jialat die standing.

I usually watch videos from mobilerevieweh and he always recommends flolab.

But that AR version got black border, I don’t want black border version because I don’t want even slightly tiny blocked the screen. 😅

To answer you both, current version no big issue. Macrumors bit over but I agree, you are paying “premium”, anything short of perfection is not good enough. (Again flolab acknowledge, no denial nonsense)

Someone posted a template with color sides and whether can see fully.

Flolab onetime pro that I have, it covers ever so slightly on right hand side. If I don’t tell u, I doubt u know. I posted sometime back, I just talk to flolab, they acknowledge not the most ideal, they are releasing a new version mid October. Allow me a replacement. (Shipping don’t know. Haha but happy to pay).

I recall sis fruitie also say AT same. I think the leak dimensions was off, everyone copy and did the same. But, flolab giving free replacement ya.

So I’m still recommending it, but wait for new version if you want perfection.

I’m a huge fan of Hoda, been using their sapphire glass for my 13PM for 3 years now only crack. Their 16 Series actually does block the right side of the screen. Using the XHS image thing to check border is not very accurate, just go to the camera app and there’s 4 corners in the viewfinder, Hoda’s AR TG(the one I’m using) covers the right side a bit, left side is completely fine.

Spigen doesn’t block any of the screen cuz their TG is always much smaller, Hoda pretty much covers the entire front part of the phone, Spigen just covers the screen part. Also Hoda’s AR is really very good, don’t get much reflection. Might just use it until flolab’s new revision comes out.
*
I was hoda fan too… but drop and cracks, it burned my wallet. Like I said before, I guess leaked dimension was used by all these company, so the right side alignment is off.

Spigen is good.. basic I guess. But AR is really good to have definitely and flolab free replacement.

How do you feel about there being no lip protection with TG on? If your phone drops face flat your screen gets the first point of impact  sweat.gif

Either get Apple care.. or like me… protected by flolab. Just get a free replacement. 😄

Putting on pitaka case, the owner need to know it’s more scratch protection and not drop protection.

Daily usage, I put on pitaka. For hiking, exercise events, I switch to spigen or apple silicone case.

Ohh, I already have Insurance so not that worried. But cosmetic damages is not covered you know, and I’m OCD with my stuffs 😁
Pitaka has the ‘military grade’ option, so they do have some drop protection although not as good as those bulkier cases.
*
Haha. Not yet drop so far. *touch wood*

Saw the pitake military grade. Somehow don't like the "plastics" area..

Now I got Sunset and sunrise. Still prefer Sunset. Lots of people comment it's nice.


QUOTE(decavalera @ Oct 10 2024, 03:07 PM)
For me, for new phone i’ll not be without any case protection.. minimum, will use these Arc Pulse, encountered a guy using it last weekend..

For old phone, been using caseless for my office iphone SE 2nd gen.. dayemm slim & very light… touch wood nothing happen… yet..
*
I saw arc pulse. If put analogy, Pitaka is like wear short pants and tank top. Arc pulse is like bikini. icon_idea.gif too naked, I'm not ready for it

The red frame is installer? If yes, the staff there really don't know how to do it.

So far xone installer is pretty much idiot proof. Got dust on screen, put installer also it cleans it and install perfectly.

iOS 18.0.1 still hasn't fully fixed the touch screen issue, especially on the camera control edge and every edge corner, which occasionally occurs (randomly) input lag & unresponsive

Oh man…. I tot I’m the only one. So far no one mention bug still exist. And I notice might be triggered by cc? Somehow after using cc, whole screen unresponsive. But random also, it just doesn’t register touch.

Today sharing one case, this is not new purchase but I didn’t share last time. So total case still 27. 😅

beats - sunset purple.

This case is pretty but a bit slippery and suggest don’t buy black color as the finger print will be very obvious. Light color is ok.

Apple strange strategy… release under beats brand. I tried caressing it… looks like nomad sport case I ordered and returned. Im calling it a bar of soap case.
