Draco V on LTE Mode - SingTel - LTE Is Alive!

Draco V on LTE Mode - SingTel - LTE Is Alive!

Ok, I don't have another camera so I just did a screenshot from the phone. This is taken along Robinson Road, CBD.

Will post tonight LTE reception at home.

As for 3G, it plays around 4-5 bars my desk, which is around 3 meters away from the signal repeater. Without the case, it is always at 5 bars. Strange.

One thing I noticed too, it takes some time to register the signal change, e.g., from LTE to 3G and vice versa. I am already inside the building but LTE is still up whilst it usually changes to 3G instantly without the case. Hmmm... Did it twice... Same observation...

Update 1: Actual image with the case for LTE reception:

Well here my finding...

The whole North east line no issue and signal is strong at 5 bar or min 4 bar all the way...

But if you are really at weak signal issue it will really kill it.

E.g. at one of the spot in my office is always 1 bar but with Draco 5 on.. no signal

explain why the USA people making so much nosie about it.

But if use in SG, I dont think Draco will give any problem. 99% of the time have no signal issue.

I can confirm it does not affect LTE. No changes with my signal at home with constant 4 bars, same as without the case.

3G is also not affected, same 3 bars constant for more than an hour already.

How's yr feel for the Draco? For me the size is nice to hold but the curve part does feel like a bit sharp

Initially it felt like there are sharp edges, but I got used to it now. The "sharp" ones are on the link points and on the point where the color changes. Maybe it would smoothen out as it is used (I hope so).

I must say the fit is perfect (except those that are using the glass protectors) and a head turner. But one colleague of mine thought I changed my phone to an HTC. Grrrr.

Anyway, will use it for a week or so then shift to Sector 5. Hehehe

Yep, both the Draco and the Sector arrived this morning.
So what I did was use the Sector 5's Rash Guard and put on the Draco. :D

Does the mute button provided by Draco cause scuff marks on the metal band of the iPhone? Previously I had a Draco 4 on my iPhone 4s and I realized that area where the mute button comes into contact with the metal band, there are scuff marks.

No, this time round all button got this transparent film stick on it thus will not have scuffing issue.

Yet to see. But the mute button already comes with a plastic adhesive at the back similar to the one deployed with the power button. So I assume that would cushion the contact and "may" avoid the scuff marks. But to be on the safe side, what I did was put on a rash guard on the sides.

The volume rocker on mine did not come with the plastic adhesive. I have to use the one that sticks it as part of the packaging.

I see. So the case should fit over a skin?
