QUOTE(dikae @ Oct 27 2025, 05:56 PM) Pro and pro max is not really 1 charge vs 2 charges. After intense testing for 3 weeks on same usage, its about remaining 50% vs 30/35% by end of the day difference. So I would say its 1 charge per day for both devices on normal usage, on heavy usage I think need 2 charges for both devices. Lol ya.... totally agree with you. Pro Max is not a miracle worker. But if at the end of the day still having 50% still feels much better than 35%. But doesn't really count with my new strategy of charging up to 90%. When it gets to 40% I am just gonna top up with a power bank to 60%. Only ever gonna charged to 90% before I sleep. |

QUOTE(Andrewtst @ Oct 28 2025, 05:04 PM) I had placed the plateau film at the camera area, so I wasn’t too worried about it. 😊 Camera button is the flawed part. It shouldn't be exposed at all since many cases had it covered but still works very well.I’m not sure if this time the camera button will scratch or not, but last year one did happen on some user report. I’m not too worried because I don’t use the camera much; I only use it when taking selfies for easier photos. |

QUOTE(fruitie @ Nov 1 2025, 01:08 AM) Finally, before eating HDL at Bangsar, dropped by Ninjaz Bangsar and got my screen protector installed. Not sure if I got the correct model but I’m surprised it’s only RM 69 vs RM 89 for the privacy version. Though the packaging looks different, the staff insists it’s the same thing. At least if the people there installed it then it won't buckled up and the case lifting up the glass. Btw, I found out I could cleaned up the edges of the non curved glasses with a moist tissue paper very effectively. Spotlessly clean.... Will commit it as weekly regimen Anyway, first impression, it’s smooth but since it’s new so can’t really say it yet. This is the model they installed for me: ![]() Side note: These two days have been busy for me, meeting up with my boss who flew in from Singapore. Talked about the project which I will lead in the coming 6 months and my trip to Beijing. If nothing happens, in March, I will fly to Helsinki for a workshop too. End of this month, I’m due to fly to Singapore or Thailand too. So, yeah I will be busier than usual. Will try to drop by here whenever I can. Will miss you guys! decavalera liked this post

QUOTE(billy3336 @ Oct 30 2025, 07:22 PM) actually this guy tested this theory, surprisingly no, charging while using didnt hurt the battery health Nowadays the phone will stop charging when it detects excessive heat from the phone. But then the battery level will never goes down as well. New optimized charging. So it is pretty safe. |

QUOTE(fruitie @ Nov 3 2025, 02:27 PM) Dropping by to say hi to you guys. Busy Monday for me. I miss the days I can come here and talk to you all. (I had to exclude emoticons in my replies as already exceeded the limit and I'm lazy to use emoji as I'm not using my phone now), so my replies look emotionless but I'm not, OK? I'm happy. Normal tissue paper, make it wet then squeeze out any excess water. Like how we wring away the excess water on a microfiber cloth except that for a tissue paper we can't do that so I just squeeze out the water by pressing my palms together. Works like a charm to clean away the smudges on my screen. The screen will just dry up as you wipe so it won't leave ugly water stains behind.... and then just dispose it.Yes, if I have the time, I would love to. I like that black bag more than the white bag. Blueo camera plateau is too expensive, I think I'm OK with Shopee quality. Yes, actually the good thing is someone will be there to install for me. I don't need to trouble my sister too if she is not around. Happy wife, happy life. But that pink looks cute. Yes, the main reason is to get someone to install. Moist tissue paper? Wet tissues? I think may come later. Anyway, been using Blueo for a few days now. And also using my phone extensively as I post a lot of TikTok recently. So, I have been editing videos using my phones etc. Boy, it is a fingerprint magnet. Sooner, you will take over the throne for buying the most cases. |

QUOTE(XiuKeong @ Nov 4 2025, 08:08 PM) After upgrading to the latest iOS, I can definitely feel an improved efficiency on battery consumption. Tomorrow will start from 100% and see how long it will last throughout the day. I heard the new upgrade with lose the transparent Liquid Glass. Major bummer for me. Or is there a way for people to keep it on when they choose to? |

QUOTE(dikae @ Nov 5 2025, 05:14 PM) Lol terrible, Apple and other AASP already restock multiple times and maxis still crawling there..sigh Very lazy and lousy customer service. Maybe they are thinking less one customer won’t make any difference…Already potong with them since 15 pro max era...open box with a clear deep scratch and they refuse to replace, then its game over...plus the fact that they charge so high monthly commitment making it not even worth to be tied 2 years anymore.. |

QUOTE(INGfusion @ Nov 8 2025, 11:29 PM) Previously my 14 pro during bangkok trip with apple magsafe battery pack attached the whole day (because i got no time to charge my phone by using cable) and my battery health dropped from 98% to 92% in 3 days. I see. Recently I just got the Xiaomi 33W with cable and magnetic for ¥129 supposed to be ¥169 from a MI store. There is a cheaper non magnetic but it was much thicker. However this magnet is not very strong. Not sure if my old Ugreen magnetic powerbank one is stronger. I used to charge my 12 Pro with it on a non magnetic case and it never slipped but I have never tested it with my new phone on current case cause I can't bring it over with me to China as it doesn't have CCC certification. |

QUOTE(decavalera @ Nov 11 2025, 07:55 AM) Since China is full of androids manufacturer.. i thought should not many apple stores there.. upon googled, they have 46 stores there.. wow.. That's what I thought too especially with Apple's gloom and doom on China's market. At one point in time prior to 17 Pro preorder I almost worried I will be the stranger in China for my new iPhone or so I thought My last visit was on Sunday at MixC Shenzhen Apple Store, still so crowded. There's authorized resellers as well but kind of empty... Have been seeing so many 17 Pro/Max users and I can easily say more than half use an iPhone Also Starbucks is lucky to have few places to sit each time I went there. Nothing at all like the Malaysia boycott lol.. |

QUOTE(westlife @ Nov 15 2025, 12:39 AM) i used before, to be frank, nothing impressive. quality i would say so so only. Agree. China normal brand is 1/4 the price but yellows only after around a year. Ringke case yellows after 3 months. Bought it first for my 12Pro never looked back ever…and if u planned to use their transparent case, better avoid it, as it will turn yellowish for sure and rather fast. just my 2 cents. |

QUOTE(fruitie @ Nov 16 2025, 03:42 AM) https://my.shp.ee/Qma5ihy Wow this is really small. Don't worry. I bought my xiaomi magnetic power bank costing me ¥169(RM99). As a new phone I probably not planned to charge magnetically just yet... and also need to be careful of the magnetic facing the screen but the ¥129 non magnetic is about 8mm thicker.... Also glad u bought the ccc... In China when they scan u have a power bank, you're required to take it out to be checked or it ends in the bin. Kinda regretted I didn’t buy on 11.11 flash deal sales, can get below RM 110 that time. I bought mine at 118 on 15.11. Maybe 25th will be cheaper but my trip is on 27th lol so I won’t be able to get it in time. Also having a power bank is a lifesaver. I don't have to worry to charge to 100% if it's a long day or to find power plugs.... I can say it is for sure damnnnn comforting especially when I don't want the battery to get below 35%.... |

QUOTE(dikae @ Nov 16 2025, 01:25 PM) I up my charging to 90% already, used to be on 80 for pro max, then up to 90 on pro, now switch back to PM and decided to stay at 90%, don't think ill go 100%, but 95% is likely to happen I also up to 90% only. I was once tempted to charge to 100% on a long day but having a powerbank that comes with a cable.... not happening at all. Only at 100% when iOS says so. |
