Another leak, this time on the official Apple Clear Case.

If true, it seems that the MagSafe part could have a major upgrade. And also from this leak, it seems that the Dynamic Island is of the same size (or slightly smaller). 🫠

If use low quality ones, they will affect image quality. For now, I choose not to use them. tongue.gif

Exactly this, and also will cause unwanted reflections/flares in the image. Just have to be careful not to scratch the original lens cover glass, but since it is made of Sapphire, it is quite scratch-resistant.

Many people show how scratched up their 'lens protector' is, but the reason it is able to be so scratched up is because most are not even made of material like Sapphire. laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif

Switch and UR trade in price is out. Rm3320 after overtrade with 16PM 256GB.

If use credit card has vouchers but still Apple stores 3500 offers for trade in the best
*
Apple Store trade in value RM3,500 is truly amazing. Even if one were to sell off a 16PM 256GB on Carousell, RM3,500 is more or less the effective selling price already.

There is slight differences if you trade in Apple you need to purchase the phone there at 5999.

If you managed to sell at Carousal, you can purchase at Shopee for 5750 or so with voucher. Last year was 300 off in Shopee
*
Yeah, guess the only other benefit of buying through Apple is the 14-day no questions asked return policy though.

maybe too many trade in customers to process. haha. last year I got a MacBook Pro refunded via their 14 day return policy (bought 14" to try), and the refund was processed in just 2 working days. after that, re-ordered a 16"

i actually guessed that this will be the case. silver at least it is close to natural metal colour (or technically i dun consider it as colour at all, as it is the original metal colour).  tongue.gif

orange is very special, but not all may appreciate the colour. not to mention this year it was reverted back to cheaper metal aluminium. the colour on it makes it feel even cheaper.  tongue.gif
*
True. Honestly unless we can see and hold it, hard to tell from videos and photos online. That’s why I prefer to order from Apple Store.

If bored with the colour within 14 days, just return for full refund and get another colour. 🤭

At least yours can relax and wait for doorstep delivery. ☺️

so for app store trade in
i wait new phone reach then i can still decide to trade in or not right? i can cancel trade in?

current PO i choose to trade in my 16p

Definitely can cancel trade in. Likewise if what you trade in does not meet their requirements (device failure or something), then the trade in may be rejected anyway.

Not sure how durable is the anodized coating for aluminium this round. But so far the coatings used on stainless steel and titanium iPhones previously were quite durable.

Blue looks too stealthy. Hard to see if it’s the latest iPhone Pro from afar. 🤣

Because 3D hot-bending does require alittle bit of skill to apply , that the reason why 3D hot bending must come with a rolling tools , or else the failure very high for newbie.

But once u get this kind of screen protector , u wont ever looking another type , because it just so easy , pull , roll , done 😆 my ip16pm and vivo x200s was using this kind of temp glass.

Have purchase link for this?

I need to order quickly so it can arrive before 19th 😆

Most likely will be getting the Techwoven. But have to see how well the colour matches with the Cosmic Orange iPhone.

Probably either Blue Techwoven or Black Techwoven. ☺️

Your update shows that they are preparing already I guess. My card was also just charged this morning by Apple Store Malaysia. Can’t wait for pickup at Apple Store TRX this Friday rclxm9.gif

Found this on shopee but cant be sure if this is authentic

Ok la i caved in for my first pitaka

Will this for weekend and black spigen for weekdays at office
*
Yes, this seller is authentic. I bought the Pitaka Sunset case from them for my iPhone 15 Pro Max. My favourite case so far for 15 Pro Max, and I’ve tried so many other cases from Nomad Horween, Apple Silicon, Uniq and Moft.

The Pitaka wins because of excellent style, material and durability. Still looks brand new after many months of usage. And the material is very resilient as no scratches, dents or marks even after rough usage. happy.gif

your iphone 17 also going to use as naked phone? am going to!

Am considering this as well now.

Since there is almost no good case in the market that matches well with the Cosmic Orange 17 Pro / Max.

Just pay RM999 for Apple care+ 2 year extended warranty, and just pay the small deductible to get a replacement iPhone should anything severe happen to it. Hahaha.

RM999 isn't much though. Buying more than 3 premium cases from Apple, Pitaka or Casetify would already breach that figure.

🤣🤣🤣

Because the 17PM screen already comes with a special AR coating that I am going to fully utilize and it just looks so perfect without any protector on. I know the new screen protector can almost make it seem edge to edge application like you are not even on one but there's a difference to how a screen protector feel compared to a real thousand of ringgit screen that I paid for feel
*
If we put an AR-coated SP on the iPhone, will it make the Anti-Reflective performance the same or better/worse than just the iPhone AR screen naked?

Experts will tell you otherwise but for me it's simple really having another screen on top of a coated screen already adds another unnecessary layer of viewing filter towards your content that would affect the performance of your screen by either a tiny or small margin that myself personally am not going to accept. There's also the fact that I already paid more than RM6k++ for the phone, imagine putting a screen protector on and then using the phone without touching the actual screen it came with and then about a year or two later I am removing the screen protector to sell it off and buy a new iphone without utilizing that expensive screen I paid for ever. What a waste that would be but of course if you know you got butter fingers or kids throwing your phones around you might want to have protection on the moment you get the phone!
This is it yeah? I'll be damn that's one ugly s.o.b

Yeah. Maybe good idea to go without SP this round. But as you mentioned, I have kids who may be rough with it. laugh.gif

Just get it from Shopee/Lazada. Cheaper with mid-month vouchers and Shopee has free Instant delivery. Received within 30mins after seller shipped out.

Pitaka cases are awesome in quality and design / materials. 👌🏼
In my opinion, the Pitaka Moonrise and Sunset case colours seem to suit the Silver or Dark Blue iPhone Pro / Max, and not the Cosmic Orange which is what I have pre ordered. Am personally using the Pitaka Sunset now with my iPhone 16 Pro Max Desert Titanium.

Perhaps the Pitaka Aramid Black Fiber would suit the Cosmic Orange better.

Anyway this is just my own preference.

QUOTE(sihamsedap @ Sep 15 2025, 02:34 PM)
the price is regardless of battery heath and condition?

like 99% no scratches but batt health is 88% can qualify?
*
So far most of the trade in evaluations include only the exterior condition of the phone, and full working condition of the hardware. Battery health is normally not part of the evaluation unless maybe the battery health is below 80%.

Then forget about what I said bro get maximum protection the best tanky cases you can find. Kasi full on side & edge guards around your phone make it like a brick  biggrin.gif

Haha. Bulky cases not practical for me. As a heavy user, it will add unnecessary strain when holding to an already large and weighty phone.

2nd choice. Pitaka Black Aramid Fiber for sure. Hehe.

Now considering either this or the Apple Techwoven Black (maybe even Blue) for my upcoming Cosmic Orange.
