Things can and will get worse. Switch (Shopee) now claiming that they sent me the correct item.

I usually prefer Switch over Machines but looks like things are changing.

Iinm part number is the same between 15W and 25W. SKU also. But that doesn’t mean their description match. Switch is being very naughty here. Return and waste the voucher, no choice.

What’s wrong with current pixel 9 processor bro? I mean I don’t game and I only take pictures and otherwise just browse n scroll

Android feel more Humanization , mostly is they follow the way how consumer use it and create for your convenience.

ios is like they prepare everything for you , like it or not u have to learn how to use it.

But cant deny ios stil have the best apps optimization , both have the pros and cons , if possible just own both of them then u are good 🤣🤣🤣
*
I agree. But tbh other than app optimisation )iOS better) nothing much in between.

Also, I don’t use that many apps. Other than the normal ones and the built in ones. I foresee one day with AI running even apps will be obsolete. 😃

You’ll regret buying it. Besides its great camera, there’s nothing else good about it.

Even scrolling through certain apps isn’t smooth. The processor performance is simply not for current year’s standards.

I'm really surprised, thought a Pixel experience should be flawless for normal tasks....

The one I just received, the older 15W (A2140) is MHXH3ZA.

The 25W one on apple.com MY is MX6X3ZA.

On apple.com, they're MX6X3LL.

Chargerlab tested a 1M one which is MX6X3ZA (A2580.) Assume from apple.com HK.

As for the voucher, my friend got his 200-111 from the 15th revalidated when seller failed to ship but leceh lah. Have to keep insisting and asking them to escalate it.

It's crossbody and I'm going to hide it inside my winter jacket. I already have an Apple Watch for notifications etc but I need to use my phone to take photos.
Wanna attach it to my body while taking photos, so that it's not easily snatched away. sweat.gif

I have been to Europe a few times and so far OK but this time it is Spain which is notorious for pickpockets, snatchers etc.  doh.gif Cannot cancel my trip now. laugh.gif

Do they even snatch phones? I suppose its possible but isn't it not very "productive" since phones can be locked remotely pretty easily?

Yes but London is worse when it comes to phones snatching. Spain is more for pickpockets like France (Paris) and Italy. laugh.gif Barcelona is the worst one among all cities in Spain but I will still have 3 days in Barcelona, I already tried to cut short my stay there, I'll be leaving for KL from Barcelona.

Any chance you will be or have been in Florence / Rome / Milan / Cannes? Those are my upcoming destination. Any tips will be definitely appreciated.

Haha... Cross border transaction fees and shitty exchange rates by banks are another bother too.

Can't avoid being targetted because you will stand out as a tourist for sure. TBH I never felt unsafe walking the streets of HCM or BKK or Phnom Penh even though people will advice tourists to stay away from the streets at night. Try walking around Gare Du Nord at night and you will know what we are concerned about. Sorry to say but Europe is really turning into a shithole with all the illegal migrants and homeless people.

Again... do update me what you find best ya.

Thanks for all the tips. I'm going to Italy soon and will try my own best to stay secure.
Regard cross border, I think Wise card tied to your Apple pay + watch may be the most economical.

I won’t be using those ridiculous finger loops, they’re definitely loose. 😅

I’m not a fan of this case, it’s a bit too thick. I wonder why they make it so thick!

I really have to ask...then why buy this particular one?

Hi is this with the "regular lens frame" or with "bracket lens frame"? How high does the lens frame protrude compare to the camera lens surface and provide some protection?

Is the magsafe attachment strong? Do you get good wireless charging ? Thanks for answering~~!

Anybody used Airtag before? How's the tracking gps reception? Is this worth
*
Sure!

Let me tell you a cool story in a few words. My daughter dropped the air tag on a street outside of school. Overnight I tracked it everywhere near the school road. It ranged from 1km to a few hundred meters nearby.
I thought she dropped it in the bus. But turns out not in her school bus. I tracked it and the next day it was moving around nearby the school road also. When I finally reached there physically, there was nothing nearby except myself and some rubbish bags nearby.

Went out, walked a few rounds until I fenced it in with my phone. Eventually I realised it was in the big rubbish bag but one of 3. I used the sound beeping function and dig with hands until I found it in one of the rubbish bags. Yucks.

But it was there!

Anyway please be informed there is NO GPS in the Airtag. There is only UWB radio that pings your iphone and Ipad. If you throw it in an area with NO Iphone nearby it will not return the location accurately.

It will always only return the location of the last Iphone it was near to.

Any regular iPhone except if the owner purposefully disable the AirTag tracking deep in the settings.

I estimate out of thin air the proportion is 99.2% don’t do so.

Hi all, seek opinion whether it is worth to upgrade to 16PM from 13PM?
*
I personally will wait 1 more year for 17 if you aim to keep it for a long time.

16PM is too big, unwieldy, high Center of gravity.

Hopefully next year they go back smaller or change something regarding materials like back to aluminium.

The 13 was the last processor that really is battery saving.
I’ve seen a big leap for camera from 12, but not such a great leap from 13. I’m assuming you never had a big problem anyway for 13, else you’d have changed to 15 or even 14.

But heck, life is too short if 5k is not a big thing anymore. Vivo also 5k. Buy it and not happy upgrade again.

+1 for Apple Store trade in. Even when you select everything in good condition, if there are a few small scratches, dents, or even small screen issues, they give you the full trade in value. My battery health was at 'need servicing' level was also given a pass.

If you go to those authorized dealers, they will cut cut cut and drop your value to lie 20-30% of their offer value laugh.gif
*
But during certain times and periods Dealers such as Switch can give you "Overtrade" which is like RM50 to RM200 when you trade in and buy immediately.

Apple no such thing.
