It’s got a nice texture. Definitely not slippery.
That’s perfect. Just ordered one.
Nice. Which colour did you go with?
I went with black, it looks clean and matches everything.
Try not to charge your phone all the way to 100%. It helps the battery last longer.

People overthink this way too much. Just use your phone. I’ve had my iPhone 13 for two and a half years, and the battery is still at 89%.

I’ll probably aim for around 90 or 95%. Stopping at 80 feels like overkill. Can’t you just replace the battery after two years?
@Dana
I used to have an iPhone 11 Pro, and I kept it between 20-80%. After a year, the battery health was still at 97%. For me, it’s about getting a good trade-in price when upgrading since I don’t live in a country with official Apple stores.
@Kei
Fair enough. I don’t have Apple stores near me either, but I could go to a third-party shop.
@Kei
So you’re keeping your battery at 60% just to stop it from dropping below 80% in a few years?

Pretty much. Without official Apple stores here, replacement batteries are often non-genuine, which impacts resale value. Phones are expensive here, so I’d rather keep my battery health high and save money in the long run.
