Guys, just want to check, saw some shops selling a kind of "screen protector", spray some chemical on top, then dry it under a dryer. They said it is more durable than tampered glass. Is it good to get those or just get tampered glass?
My wife's iPhone has that coating. It looks as if there's no screen protector applied. In other words it looks really good.

My only concern is whether the phone can be opened for repair in the future. The gaps are not covered though.

Lol gimmick la. Do u really believe a “coating” can protect anything at all? Also any kind of coating will wear off over time and u wouldn’t be able to know if it’s there or not since it’s not visible rofl.

The coating is actually quite thick to the extent that it raises over the glass that the edges can be rounded off.

Best way I can explain is it's like they apply transparent wax (think candles) on the glass, then bevel the edges. So the "wax" and glass now becomes the glass.

It's quite incredible actually because of how thick that coating is. It's probably as thick as a glass protector, except it looks like there's nothing extra on the iPhone.

OR maybe I remembered wrongly. Maybe the iPhone glass all along is raised glass with beveled edges.

Any recommendation for a phone stand? I'll need it especially during work.

I gotten the Belkin MagSafe 3in1 charger. Not bad if u wanna charge 3 things at a go. Best thing is it comes with its own power adapter and support up to 15w for the MagSafe.

I was considering buying the Apple silicone case but my sister don’t recommend, told me that it will turn sticky. Like the material “melt”.

Anyone can give some input on this? 😅

Used sillicone case long time ago, will always get sticky after a while especially in humid climate, so not really worth it.

Most of you all went for max or normal 6.1? :o
i go with normal Pro. This year, the weight is heavier for all iphone. Pro Max will be the heaviest. And also, Pro and Pro Max have the exact same set of features, unlike last year where Pro Max has distinct adv over pro model.

I'm currently using XS Max. I was considering upgrading to 13 Pro and went to compare the screen size of 12 Pro and Pro Max. Couldn't convince myself to go for the smaller screen on the Pro model, so it's still Pro Max for me.
