Strahany commented on Case Recommendations for iPhone XS

Strahany commented on Selling through PayPal
As if it isn’t obvious enough, this is a complete scam. The buyer wouldn’t even need to file a chargeback since PayPal’s “Seller...

These were half price from the moment they hit the shelves last year. Questionable “RRP” here.
Exactly right. For me, whilst I’m well versed in a wide range of technology, I treat my phone like a car; I couldn’t care less about a...
What next? Telstra offering a $300/month contract with an iPhone, Apple Watch, MacBook, iPad, and AirPods? I get offering phones on...
Strahany commented on Kogan Ultra Fast 20,000mAh 40W Power Bank with Type-C (PD) $59 or $49 (When Buy 2 w/ AmEx Credit) Delivered @ Kogan
I’ve had three replacement units, all of which have the same issue. When trying to charge a device over USB-C, the power bank attempts to...
OP needs to detail for what purposes they use their phone, since we’d need to start with that and then go from there. For example, if...

Strahany commented on Where to buy Genuine iPhone X Silicone Cases?
I will never understand the desire to spend $50+ on a silicon case, just because it has a feint Apple logo printed on the back. This is the...
Personally, I’d keep using the Nokia for a while after you get back and see how you like it. When I used to work in phone sales, every...
Keep in mind that I’ve just reeled off a list of “iOS/iPhone pros” from the top of my head; there will be a few more. Of course,...

Lukian on 35% off, Kuman 6-Pack PCI-E 16x to 1x Powered Riser Adapter Card $38.86 Delivered @ KumanAU Amazon AUIn many circumstances, yes. But this is not the fault of the actual product, so much as the inherent design of power supplies. Even the...
