I did the exact same upgrade, same colour and also have the clear MagSafe case. I’ve been loving this phone, I now chose to do light room edits on this rather than my 2020 iPad Pro 12.9.

Congrats! Natural titanium? Here’s one natural ti with matte frosted fusion case and lens protector from Korea.

Doesn't the 12 Pro Max have 120 Hz as well?

[–] Economy-Weird-2368@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Agree that the Apple Clear case looks great… I just dislike how the bottom is almost completely exposed/uncovered.

[–] Inquisitive_idiot@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

If that case is anything like the 14 Pro max ones (and before), be careful with how slippery it is.

It's flown out of my hands at least once 😅

[–] Tearhere76852@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

My first hand experience now it doesn’t slip or anything. For 2 years with my iPhone 12 pro max I don’t have a case on it. Then with this phone I tried using it naked without a case it’s really different it’s slippery as hell. But after using this case the difference is a lot. It’s not that slippery anymore, I know some cases has different material and feel but this one I feel secured when holding my phone.

Jtech galvanized case on amazon is way better and much cheaper + looks nicer.

iPhone is nice homepod etc but the accessories suck balls.

120 Hz Is NoT a BiG DeAl

[–] mysir@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Being honest at this point. I looked quality of this case. Its great but I researched and knew you won’t get much protection in this one. I felt my $20 case is much better quality than this.

Case n everything is stupid expensive and will yellow up due to the oil in your hands n stuff, but that case plus a screen protector and you’re set till you get a new phone

[–] Alone_Masterpiece_21@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Iblason cases are the best

I went from the iPhone X to the 15 pro max. It’s like a whole new world

[–] Different-Set4505@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I had a 12 pro max, the only thing I’ve noticed about the 15 pro max I like better is camera zoom and 120 refresh. Other than that can’t tell the differences disappointing.

What else would they even change… it’s a metal rectangle with a screen, processor, memory and a battery.

Theses people who complain about nothing new almost always use their phone for social media and nothing else.

Do the Apple ones get yellow?

[–] Tearhere76852@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

No it doesn’t, apple cases are made of polycarbonate. Some cases turns yellow because of the materials they use like thermoplastic polyurethane, when they are exposed to uv light and dust it will go yellow over time but apple clear cases don’t because they are using a different material.

[–] king313@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Waste of money 😂

[–] -Azona-@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Same here but I got aliexpress case for 1/10 of that case and it even fully cover my phone.

Love the phone tough.

[–] RamKay33@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I bought my Apple silicone case from Aliexpress for a quarter of the price and it’s been phenomenal

[–] JustSomeRand0mGuy@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The new refresh rate is a huge battery killer for me. Having my phone on LPM makes it a 12 hour phone while i only get 6-7 hours with LPM off.

[–] Old_Bluejay_1532@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Just bought this Apple Clear case yesterday & the amount of dust that gets in the lips on the edge all around is insane & in less than 24 hours… plus appears to be not so tight fit on all 4 corners. May take it back but I hate returning stuff. Love the premium feel but the dust is a big problem imo & to take off to clean regularly will only loosen more & potentially fracture.

11 pro max to 15 pro max. Barely notice the difference tbh. Always on display and the differences in animations with the dynamic island are the biggest changes I’ve noticed after a month (apart from the rounded edges which I personally prefer and are the reason I stuck with the 11 pro max for so long). Everything else about the phone is basically just slight better than the old one.
