I think the size and weight will sub-consciously take the battery life problem away from me.

Will be sticky after a while. I used their silicon case before. And for men, we like to put it in our pockets, the case will collect lint.
Yup same here not a fan of silicon cases. Still prefer either leather or TPU. More so TPU cuz it's just a lot more durable and easy to clean/maintain.

Think big hands have draw back… gals always said they feel their assets are small when I held them with my hands. 🤣
Sizes are relative. If you compared to your own, theirs are bigger for sure, unless you gym and train there a lot.
Is Anker wall charger safe? I am always in the market looking for a duo port charger that can use MagSafe that output the full 15W and a USB to charger Apple Watch.
Anker should be safe enough!

Max definitely has it pros to me, like the screen size is good for viewing pictures, videos, documents. Let’s see if i can get used to it. I just imagine its like my iPhone X. Hehe

If you like the patina on the leather, then you should go for it! It also makes the phone feels more premium and iPhone is supposed to be premium afterall.

Don understand your reason. So meaning if I can one hand grab basketball when playing means their assets will need to be bigger than a basketball then it’s relative? 🤣

Cannot for sure. I changed from the iPhone X to 11 Pro Max, it's a whole world of difference, though I must say the battery life is the insane one.
Are you one of them thats downsizing to the Pro from the Max for 13? but yeah to be honest i also dont know if i can used to it. but i spent a bit of time playing around with my friend's 12 Pro Max and compared it against a 12 Pro and the screen real estate is just so much easier on the eyes. coming from a 3yo XS that has battery life that barely lasts me for half a day now, the bigger battery on the Max also offers me some security especially if i end up not upgrading for 2-3 years.

I had a red leather case from apple on my XS for the first two years and the patina that developed felt more like grime lol. it was just black and didn't look as rich as those from quality leather like on my wallet or shoes.

Maybe its also the choice of color i chose? Perhaps saddle brown will age better than the red. but another thing i disliked about leather case is its not as abuse free. i dont really baby my phone so i prefer something thats easier to clean. with TPU i can just rinse it with water and soap.

The leather quality on the case since the iPhone 12 onward are bad. It’s not European leather anymore and it peels easily.
It’s very different, doesn’t patina and it doesn’t grip the phone tight enough, you can see the stainless steel band and if you drop the phone, the phone comes out and your phone may have scuffs or dents, I returned because of this.

Prior to this, apple’s leather case was always a default choice.

Is there any place in SG that has Casetify cases to see and feel? I am not sure if Casetify cases are like Otterbox thickness and their case are very expensive to buy without feeling it.

Any Caudabe Sheath fans here? Enjoyed using mine when I was using my iPhone 11, tried the Apple Leather on the iPhone 12 but I feel like it does not provide adequate protection.

Will most probably stick with the Caudabe Sheath again for my iPhone 13 Pro.

Yes, I am one of those who are downsizing. In my opinion, the first few days would be uneasy but after a while the brain will adjust according. It was the same when I upsized from the X to the 11 Pro Max.

I think it's the colour. The Saddle Brown patina better for me back then with the X.
For leather case is Apple or nomad one better?
I'll choose Nomad. I am using their Rustic Brown with 11 Pro Max. Very solid case.

may i know why are you downsizing though? for the one handed maneuverability ah?

Is the Nomad case the same thickness as Apple? One thing I did liked about the Apple leather case is that its quite slim. Nomad seems a little thicker from the pictures I have seen.
