Just got the P9 with spigen case and TG - loving it.

Question - anyone has an intro for a sticker/protector that's covering the entirety of the camera bump?
- the case fits perfectly but the lens and camera bump is still in contact/near contact when placed on the table
- similarly, in pocket, it also inevitably means rubbing against the interior of pockets
- over time, am weary it might scratch the surface of the bump (e.g. area around the flash) or the lens itself
- not as concerned about the lens as the glass is tough, more so on the area around the flash

Curious to know if anyone using something to protect them?
Ringke case covers the entire camera bump

Taobao a lot of such tempered glass protector for the camera bump which covers the bump+lenses entirely.

I am looking for film protector that only covers the metal part of the camera bump and not the lenses. That one is much much harder to find, even for pixel 8 pro.

Now even harder to manufacture for the new bump design.

My P8P one year only become left $500+ liao. That's more than 50% depreciation.

I think this will make the resale value of my P9P lagi worse next year.
Nah it's not unique to Pixel. My iPhone 15 Pro Max's current resale value is also 50% of the official price, after just one year.

Oh I thought iPhone would hold it's value longer
Didn't really check, but I think iPhones may hold value longer in the later years. But in the first year, the "depreciation" is the same. And therefore, a moot point for people who change phones every year.

50% maybe for 512GB or 1TB iPhones. Those depreciate harder than the 256GB.

iPhone 256GB usually still have 60% value after 1 year.

the most silly depreciation of iphone is battery health. anything lower than 90% BH will have extra deduction. Android dont have this issue yet :/
