I’m on WiFi most of the time as I stay in all the time, if I go out I’ll use my data for a while only. Same usage as when I was using the previous iPhones but it’s the first time my data drained to 1GB from 120GB. I barely used even 2GB a month in the past. My cycle resets every 18th so it means the current cycle started one day before I got the 17PM, 18th Sept.

Every time I connect to data, it will deplete a few GB but I barely use my phone. What could be the reason? I even had to disable some iCloud features because of this issue.

Is anyone facing heavy data drain after changing to 17 or iOS 26? Or Celcom issue?
*
Mine also showing 170gb which is weird coz I barely use the phone. Either it’s because new phone redownload stuffs during transfer from old phone or something along the way (could be from old phone or few old phones ago uses 170gb and statistics transferred over), one thing weird is I haven’t use personal hotspot since iPhone 14 era and it shows 8GB shared, so yes maybe my suspicion is correct. I will reset it now and see what happens

By the way, I just changed the back camera plateau film to matte to see how it looks.

Oh my goodness! The matte version is much better!

Note: If you can’t pull out the existing one, pull it from the top camera side part.

Now, I can answer your question. The matte version looks much better.

Got any pic of the before and after clear vs matte? biggrin.gif

It’s a bit too shiny, which doesn’t match the original look. Also, it’s a bit yellowish, which affects the actual color.

Clear plateau film

Hmmm the matte looks cleaner and matches more...once I receive the protector ill try matte on the pro, and compare with the clear on my Pro max side by side, that should be easier to see...will share photos later..

I think the matte will definitely match silver better, not sure about cosmic orange, and P/S: my itchy hands want to try to silver pro, I might switch colour biggrin.gif

So its real? Thought that was AI lol

QUOTE(dreamthief @ Oct 17 2025, 02:59 PM)
I’m referring to Apple TRX / online. You can already check via app or website.

Example 17PM 512gb, my trade in value from 16PM 512gb is like rm4000.

So I paid remaining rm2999. Don’t forget from 15PM also trade in rm3k ish. I’m basically leasing the phone. Except that u need to murder, burn,  or steal to have the financial means. Live a little..

If you are working, must have a lot of shitty days, this is reward for hard work this year. Look at fruitie how happy.

andrewtst Sifu here also like u… didn’t want to upgrade. See all his post. So happy.. Sifu correct?

Thanks for the tip for removing the film from top camera side!  :thumbsup:  It's definitely much easier. I was struggling past 2 days to remove the transparent film.

I totally agree, the matte version is a better match with the original phone's alloy surface.
The clear/transparent version is too shiny and fingerprints/smudges are more visible.
I'm very happy with the matte film now.
*
Can't wait to switch to matte since you and Andrewtst highly recommended it..

Also kudos for the tips for easier removal...so just start removing from top left of the film by the 3 camera lenses right?

So there's actually some benefits to hoarding stuffs... can test test and switch back anytime tongue.gif

I think the new version has 2 holes, the older one doesn't have cutout hole on the lidar sensor...I still think without lidar sensor hole would be nicer.. but will wait to see the real thing..

I bought from Torras tech Accessories and its genuine product. Besides is under LazadaMall. What’s that to worry. If you receive fake product, you’ll able to return and get refund.

[attachmentid=11520499]
*
The problem is when you can't tell if its genuine or not, replicas these days can do AAA copies even if you have the real one side by side but can't tell any differences.

But being lazmall certified is generally safe coz its not easy to get that, and if they sell fake products I'm sure some people with laser eyes can detect the flaw and report them...

But if the price is too good to be true, then it probably is..personally I would stay away from these..

Actually that seller store is selling at retail prices just that once a while they have fire sales that bring the price cheaper. I’ve even bought Torras from Shopee site Torras Shopee Mall and the packaging is identical spotless to the one I bought from this LazMall Torras seller. They even have an authentication scratch to reveal code.
*
Deep inside my heart I think they are genuine lah, with almost everything ticked (plus the fact that they are lazmall) its very unlikely they sell fake products. But how and why would they sell so cheap is really questionable...

What do you do with the reveal code? Can you verify it from their website or something?

QUOTE(Andrewtst @ Oct 19 2025, 12:52 PM)
The seller is not selling at the retailer’s price.

Most of their products are not.

As shown in the screenshot above, the vegan leather case’s retailer price is RM235, but the seller’s price before the discount is only RM135, which is RM100 cheaper than the retailer’s price.
That’s absolutely true. I’ll definitely avoid that shop also.

I agreed AAA replica can’t tell the differences. Some more phone case isn’t difficult to replicate. To make it look exactly like the original is not very hard.

Even if it’s original, the worst they could be is selling a stealing items. Some of their case is even insanity selling at RM30+ only… Hmmm…

RM31 for a torras bruh...sounds so suspicious lol

[attachmentid=11520528]

Had breakfast in TTDI this morning then just walked into the maxis centre there and went “You don’t happen to have a 17 Pro Max Orange in stock by chance right?” The staff just smiled and said “256GB? Why don’t you scan a queue number?”

So traded in my 15 Pro Max for 3275 and paid 1455 for a 2 year Maxis 109 contract. Worth the wait!

Welcome to the partay! Like finally! So you picked orange at the end biggrin.gif

Coincidentally, it mark the 1 month since the official launch/collection day last month biggrin.gif

luckily i bought 3x matte camera plateau film ...

wasted 1st 2 due to dust sweat.gif

I think the trick is to sacrifice 1 film to remove all the dust, once remove the film immediately put another in to avoid any potential dusts sticking around..

hey guys, torn between the 17p and 17pm, coming from samsung user.
do u guys know any dealer has good PWP offer? so far i went to Urban Republic, they have some pwp with casing, airpod4, airtag etc.

QUOTE(FuNks @ Oct 19 2025, 09:11 PM)
yeah already set on 17p, but still thinking if should go 17pm.
coz 6.9 is kinda big to even fit in pocket.
*
Im using both the pro and pro max, also have a s25 ultra samsung as second phone (more like main phone now coz I really use it for all the heavy duty).

Pro is more like a phone with the right size, .makes me wanna use the phone more too coz easy single handed use, easy in and out of the pocket, also lower risk of dropping the phone if you have butter finger..but if you wanna get attention or flex tbe phone all the time, then pro max is probably better choice

Pro max has better battery (by a huge margin sadly), maybe coz the ios26 drains battery like water so the bigger battery actually helps, bigger screen, big on the hands, if you really switch to the pro max then at least get a techwoven case cos it makes the phone slimmer..

Im giving it another week before deciding which to go, very likely the pro max..
