What Are The Best iPad Screen Protectors in 2024? Ive Tested 27...Heres My Top Picks!

MobileReviewsEh 2024-04-28 | My biggest issue with iPad screen protectors is that they suck the life out of my iPad’s screen or accessories. BUT in the last while, I’ve come across a product that checks off all my iPad screen protector needs! Now…this product, is it a tempered glass screen protector, a paper-like/matte protector, glass film or magnetic removable protector?

Here are my top picks for each type of screen protector:

Glass Film - ESR Armorite Protective Film (My overall top pick) - mreh.ca/3UzO22t

Matte/Paper - Paperlike (make sure it’s the newest version) - mreh.ca/3QIV8Qf

Easiest to install, paper-like protector get the Spigen PaperTouch - mreh.ca/3QpR2Mv

Tempered Glass - Spigen GlasTR iPad Screen Protector - mreh.ca/3y2a2dw

Removable Magnetic: Bellemond Removable Magnetic Smooth Kent Paper Screen Protector - mreh.ca/3y2alFc

#reviewernotinfluencer #reviews #mobilereviewseh

In this video:

0:00 Intro
0:15 Best Matte Film
3:05 Best Glass Film
4:49 Best Tempered Glass
6:16 Best Removable Protector

Matte Film:
-Primarily used for iPads with Apple Pencils and gaming due to its friction that mimics paper.
-Pros: Enhances the feel of writing and gaming controls.
-Cons: Difficult to install; wears down stylus nubs faster and can make fingers tired due to increased resistance.
-Top recommendations: Paperlike (mreh.ca/3QIV8Qf) for its balance between writing ease and gaming, and Spigen PaperTouch (mreh.ca/3QpR2Mv) for easier installation.

Glass Film:
-Ideal for users who don’t frequently use the Apple Pencil and prefer a glass-like appearance without the risk of chipping.
-Made of thin, clear polycarbonate, not actual glass, offering good screen protection and scratch resistance.
-Challenges include noticeable edges that can gather dust and tricky installation.
Best choice: ESR Armorite (mreh.ca/3UzO22t) for its scratch resistance and helpful installation tools.

Tempered Glass:
-Provides excellent scratch protection at a Moh's hardness of 6 or 7, preserving the iPad's screen clarity and color.
-Thicker, which may cause gaps with accessories like smart keyboards and can feel slick with some cases.
-Not recommended due to the risk of edge chipping leading to cracks.
Alternative suggestion: Spigen GlasTr (mreh.ca/3y2a2dw) for those still interested, noted for better edge finishing.

Removable Screen Protectors:
-Convenient for users who need flexibility to switch between writing and watching content, generally featuring a matte finish.
-Attach via magnets, but no adhesive on the main screen area can lead to dust and debris accumulation, risking scratches.
-Portability and maintenance might be tedious as it requires carrying extra storage and cleaning materials.
Recommended product: Bellemond (mreh.ca/3y2alFc) for its superior texture and usability.

How much faster has charging gotten in 5 years?

MobileReviewsEh 2024-04-19 | I ran a quick charging test using an old 5W charger and one of the best chargers in my test group. How much faster has charging gotten?

Bigger is always better right?

MobileReviewsEh 2024-04-16 | Don't let the size of chargers fool you. Certain manufacturers will split the wattages in a way that slow charge your devices...

I Tested 20+ Multi-Port Chargers (45W-67W) - Here Are My Top Picks

MobileReviewsEh 2024-04-07 | Why should you get a multi-port GaN PD Wall Charger? The biggest benefit is being able to charge multiple devices at once BUT a quick trip to Amazon results in a ton of products. I’ve bought and tested the most popular ones and here are my Top 5 multi-port 45W to 67W GaN PD Chargers.

Top 5 Multi-Port GaN PD Chargers (with Amazon affiliate links*)

1. Anker 735 GaN Prime 67W Charger (A2669) - mreh.ca/43LOjCE
2. Spigen ArcStation Pro GaN 452 (PE2203UJ) - mreh.ca/43Pkt0b
3. VoltMe Revo 65W GaN Charger - mreh.ca/43R27vM
4. Belkin BoostCharge Pro 45W GaN Charger - mreh.ca/3U7oo43
5. AOHI Magcube PD 40W GaN Charger - mreh.ca/3J64Wzm

*The links have model numbers encoded in them since brands reuse product names

In general, based on my testing, I personally think the 65-67W chargers are going to be the most useful because you get an extra charge port (it is USB-A though) BUT at 65W, I am able to charge my M3 MacBook Pro while gaming without losing any battery power. At a fraction of the size of the normal charger

3:00 #3
4:40 #2
6:04 #1

#1 - Anker 735 GaN Prime 67W Charger (A2669) - mreh.ca/43LOjCE

-It features 67W output across three ports, adapting power distribution (67W solo, 45W and 20W for two ports).
-Although the heaviest, its size is optimized for portability and effective heat management.
-Nice design with blue accents and a reflective finish.
-Performance-wise, it leads, particularly in full capacity tests, and maintains the lowest temperature.
-With its price modestly above average, the newer Anker 735 offers unmatched performance and longevity.

#2 - Spigen ArcStation Pro GaN 452 (PE2203UJ) - mreh.ca/43Pkt0b

-The Spigen ArcStation Pro GaN 452 ranks second, with a newer version outperforming an earlier one with faster charging and foldable prongs.
-Its embossed logo facilitates easier unplugging, and it provides 45W charging, with a 25/20W split if both ports used.
-It performs well, especially in tablet charging and multi-device scenarios, albeit with higher heat output.
-At $45, it's cost-effective, offering great value with its design and charging capabilities for those needing a dependable dual-port charger.

#3 - VoltMe Revo 65W GaN Charger - mreh.ca/43R27vM

-It has three ports, two Type-C and one Type-A, and stands out with a textured design and orange accents for easy handling and visibility.
-While it can deliver up to 65W through a single port, using multiple ports reduces the output, limiting one device to maximum speed.
-It shines in solo device charging, outperforming others by 16%, but falls slightly behind in multi-device scenarios.
-Its cooler operation during use is a major plus for durability.
-Priced at $25, 40% below average, the VoltMe Revo 65 is an attractive choice for its performance and price.

#4 - Belkin BoostCharge Pro 45W GaN Charger - mreh.ca/3U7oo43

-It delivers 45W, split into 25W and 20W across two ports, requiring strategic device connection for optimal charging.
-Its design is simple, with a white finish and smooth texture, but it stands out for its clearly labeled ports and collapsible prongs, accommodating its larger size.
-Performance-wise, it charges iPhones 10% faster than average and shines in tests with multiple devices, charging 18% faster, although it tends to run hotter than expected.
-Priced at about $30, this charger offers good value, especially considering Belkin's typically higher price point and the charger's superior test results.

#5 - AOHI Magcube PD 40W GaN Charger - mreh.ca/3J64Wzm

-The MagCube features a 40W output in a compact design, with indented sides for easy removal, setting it apart from smoother alternatives.
-It's known for its unique yellow color and an indicator light that signals charging status, enhancing usability.
-While it charges single devices efficiently, offering a 12% faster charge for iPads, it struggles with two large devices, showing a 20% decrease in performance.
-The charger tends to heat up more than others but is optimal for charging a combination of smaller devices.
-Priced at $30, the MagCube is valued for its portability and effective charging of individual devices.

I Spent 4-Months Testing Vertical Ergonomic Mice - Heres My Top 5

MobileReviewsEh 2024-03-24 | So the question is: Do you spend $30 or $125 on a vertical ergonomic mouse? Does it matter? Will the cheaper one be better or worse? I’ve tested 12 of the most popular vertical ergonomic mice and I’ve got 5 that are worth getting.

Here are the Top 5 along with the Amazon affiliate links:

Logitech MX Vertical Advanced - mreh.ca/3TxdjZG
Logitech Lift Vertical - mreh.ca/3vq6cds
Kensing Vertical Ergonomic Mouse - mreh.ca/4arQ7CK
ProtoArc EM11 Wireless Ergonomic Mouse - mreh.ca/49nShTj
DELUX Rechargeable Wireless Mouse* - mreh.ca/3TuCtbd OR Perixx PERIMICE-819B Bluetooth Portable Vertical Mouse - mreh.ca/3TmDDp2
*I wasn’t able to find this mouse on Amazon.com

For our ranking, I weigh the scores across a multitude of different criteria (15 for vertical ergonomic mice) and wrist pain relief accounts for 35% of the score. If all you care about is wrist relief consider getting the Evoluent Vertical Mouse D. The hand angle is almost 90 degrees so there is no twisting of your forearm at all. Be warned though, it’s the most expensive mouse I’ve tested.

See how much the Evoluent Vertical Mouse D is on Amazon:

Introducing The USB-C Hub - Jack Of All Trades, Master Of None! #reviews #didyouknow #tech

MobileReviewsEh 2024-02-23 | I'd use a USB-C hub as a last resort. If you can, I'd first try to get a cable that connects whatever peripheral you're using to your laptop before using a USB-C hub. From my testing, they are borderline terrible for charging, data and SD card transfers.

Only At Apple = Good Right? Satechi USB-C MultiPort Pro Review #shorts #technology #reviews

MobileReviewsEh 2024-02-22 | So I bought a Satechi USB-C Hub that was "Only At Apple" and similar Satechi USB-C Hub off Amazon. What was the difference?

Well, the "Only At Apple" hub was $20 dollars more and had 2 less ports...so you're paying more for less functionality?

The Satechi USB-C MultiPort Pro had terrible USB 3.0 ports so if you're looking to get a hub that adds device charging/data transfer capability to your tablet or laptop, don't get this hub.

Check out our Top 5 USB-C Hubs here: youtu.be/OX_Ey1Enrz8

MobileReviewsEh 2024-02-18 | So I tested 16+ iPad stylus's over the last few months and I've updated my recommendations. Don't worry, it's not the Apple Pencil 2 (It's something MUCH cheaper). Also, Apple solved my biggest gripe with stylus's with the USB-C version. Keep Watching!

Here's the Top 3 w/Amazon links:

#1 - ESR Digital Pencil Pro - mreh.ca/3I4Ryew OR mreh.ca/49iEgaa

#mobilereviewseh #reviewernotinfluencer #reviews

#3 Apple Pencil USB-C - mreh.ca/3UJcP4E

-Newest Apple stylus, an expected update.
-A dongle was needed for the original pencil with new iPads, now obsolete.
-After 6 weeks, it's a competent stylus, better in some ways than the top 2.
-Lacks Pressure Sensitivity, wireless pairing/charging, and double-tap for tool change, unlike Pencil 2.
-Suitable for note-taking and occasional sketches.
-Slightly heavier, providing a substantial feel.
-Battery life is strong at 12 hours.
-Sliding cap hides the charge port and serves as a fidget toy.
-Shorter and heavier, offering better handling.
-Missing extras like spare tips and cables, a drawback.
-Priced at $80, the "Apple tax" is evident.

#2 - Rando Amazon 2023 - mreh.ca/3UKxo0L

-Oddly similar to a stylus reviewed 3 years ago.
-A budget option that rivals the USB-C Apple Pencil at a fraction of the cost.
-Includes spare tips and a charge cable, unlike Apple's offering.
-Attaches to iPad mini/air/pro but doesn't charge there.
-Simple usage with no pairing, 10-hour battery life.
-Lacks power level display in battery widgets.
-Auto-off feature requires frequent reactivation, simulating a real pen experience.
-Different feel on the screen, especially with a matte screen protector.
-Tips wear out faster but the product is a great value at $20.

For actual creatives

-Apple Pencil 2 and Zagg Pro Stylus 2 are top choices for artists, despite their cost.
-Apple Pencil 2 offers unique features like pressure sensitivity and double tap, important for digital artists.
-Zagg Pro Stylus 2 is a good alternative with minor drawbacks like battery life.

#1 ESR Digital Pencil Pro - mreh.ca/3I4Ryew OR mreh.ca/49iEgaa

-ESR has improved significantly, offering competitive accessories.
-The stylus features a capacitive tip, LED battery indicators, and a charging wand for versatility.
-Wireless charging compatible with mini, air, or pro iPads.
-Priced at $25, includes smooth-running extra tips, presenting great value without pressure sensitivity or tool-switching capabilities.

I Tested 12 Different USB-C Hubs - Here Are My Top 5

MobileReviewsEh 2024-02-11 | So I bought 12 of Amazon's most popular USB-C hubs. And here's the thing...the highest rated ones on Amazon, performed the worst. The best USB-C hub is going to cost a few more dollars that the top rated Amazon ones BUT you're getting so much more functionality out of them!

Here are the Top 5 USB-C Hubs (w/ Amazon affiliate links):

1. UGreen Revodok Pro 7 in 1 - mreh.ca/4bz4ff6
2. Benfei USB-C Hub 7 in 1 - mreh.ca/49ruceA
3. Anker 553 PowerExpand+USB-C 8 in 1 Hub - mreh.ca/4bwjIMQ
4. Anker PowerExpand+ USB-C 7 in 1 Hub - mreh.ca/3HRNiia
5. Zmuipng USB-C Hub Multiport Adapter 9 in 1 Hub - mreh.ca/3HTCb8p

5. Zmuipng USB-C Hub Multiport Adapter 9 in 1 Hub - mreh.ca/3HTCb8p
-Among the top 5 tested, with significant drawbacks.
-Slowest charging speed, failing to charge a MacBook Pro in Game mode and losing charge despite claims of 100W (effective 87W after hub consumption).
-Overheats at 110°F, the highest in the test group.
-Below-average USB 3 data transfer speeds.
-Redeeming features include two USB-C ports for data and charging, avoiding the "hanging dock look" due to a longer cable.

4. Anker PowerExpand+ USB-C 7 in 1 Hub - mreh.ca/3HRNiia

-Considered the bare minimum standard for USB-C hubs.
-Larger size with 7 ports but below-average USB 3 port performance and inadequate iPhone charging in demanding conditions.
-Main advantage: decent SD and MicroSD card transfer speeds, despite not fully supporting SDXC2 speeds.

3. Anker 553 PowerExpand+USB-C 8 in 1 Hub - mreh.ca/4bwjIMQ

-Superior to the 7-in-1 model in almost every aspect.
-Priced higher at $50, which may deter budget-conscious buyers.
-Slightly slower flow-through charging.
-Highlights include top 3 SD card reading speeds, fast USB 3.0 data transfer, quicker charging through ports, and a metallic cover for a premium feel. Comes with a carrying bag.

2. Benfei USB-C Hub 7 in 1 - mreh.ca/49ruceA
-Surprisingly high performer for its price, making it the best budget option.
-Performs averagely well in most tests except for poor SD card reader speeds.
-Suitable for those needing basic peripheral connectivity without high demands on SD card usage.

1. UGreen Revodok Pro 7 in 1 - mreh.ca/4bz4ff6
-The best overall based on comprehensive criteria.
-Heavier than average but lacks an ethernet port.
-Average SD card reader speeds but excels with a longer connection cable, significantly faster USB A port data transfer speeds (800 mb/s), and 25% faster charging through USB A ports.
-Unique for having a second USB-C port, a rare feature among tested hubs.

Top 5 Carbon/Aramid Fiber Cases For The iPhone 15s

MobileReviewsEh 2024-01-14 | So what’s the best Carbon/Aramid Fiber case for the iPhone 15? I tested 8 cases that I considered Carbon/Aramid fiber first and here’s my Top 5!

In general, the cases I based this list on are ones that were Carbon/Aramid Fiber focused rather than iPhone case focused. There are lots of companies that have cases with Carbon/Aramid fiber finishes but very few will make the entire case out of them.

Here’s the Top 5 with Amazon links:

Pitaka MagEz Pro - mreh.ca/3tQVWKq
Pitaka MagEz Case 4 - mreh.ca/3HCTNFH
Benks Magnetic case with 600D Kevlar - mreh.ca/3vsOHc0
Spigen Enzo Matte Black - mreh.ca/3U5cI3n
LaterCase Cyber Edition - mreh.ca/3U0mzr0

Case with Carbon Fiber Finishes 4:21
#2 4:42
#1 5:59

#ReviewerNotInfluencer #reviews #mobilereviewseh

LaterCase Cyber Edition
-one of the thinnest and lightest cases out there
-case is apparently made from Kevlar
-standout feature for me is the precision formed camera area
-I’ll note that on some designs, the aramid fiber will stretch and distort making it look odd
-iPhone access is excellent
-case is easy to remove
-low edges
-MagSafe functionality isn’t built into the case so the connection between the iPhone and accessory is really weak.
Spigen Enzo Matte Black
-For me, this is the baseline for CF cases
-basically a thin case with a piece of aramid on the back
-accents are too shiny
-your iphone sits on a comfy bed of microfiber for scratch protection
-additional protection offered by air pockets in the corners
-the case edges are quite loose so I’d be apprehensive about dropping it face first
-the one feature that keeps this case from the top 3?
-the finish is too slick so it feels like your iPhone is going to slide out of your hand all the time.
Benks Magnetic Case with Kevlar 600D
-The Benks Magnetic case, made with 600D Kevlar, is excellent.
-It features real Kevlar on the back.
-The case has high-quality buttons.
-The action button on iPhone Pro models is distinct, making it stand out.
-The camera area is protected by a metallic lip, which feels superior compared to other Aramid fiber cases.
-The case's texture is decent and not as slippery as the Enzo.
-The Kevlar fibers are slightly noticeable to the touch.
-While the case edges are shallow, potentially risky for face-down drops, their rigidity can reduce impact damage.
-A unique aspect of the Benks case is the additional Aramid fiber layer inside.
-This inner layer makes the case unique, though a microfiber lining might be preferable to avoid back scratches.

Pitaka MagEZ Case 4
-The Pitaka MagEZ 4 is the thinnest case compatible with Magsafe.
-It's an improved version of the Latercase.
-Pitaka uses 1500D aramid fibers in some cases, providing more texture.
-These cases are available in various colors; the star peak version has an exceptionally good feel.
-Another version, the fusion weaving case, has less texture but still performs better than Spigen and Benks cases.
-The case offers easy access to the iPhone without obstructions.
-Like the Latercase, it has shallow edges.
-In terms of protection, the 1500D aramid fiber makes it more impact-resistant than 600D cases, but it's only 0.6mm thick, so a severe drop might still cause damage.
-The main downside is its price; it costs around $70, which is quite expensive.

Pitaka MagEZ Pro
-First of all, this MagEZ pro looks awesome
-with the cutout area, Pitaka went with a ½ metallic, ½ plastic design as the outer edge is plastic and the inner is metallic
-this helps keep the phone from sliding around on it’s back BUT the inside of the ring is a bit sharp
-iPhone access is top notch, had no issues
-edges of the case are quite rigid and are high enough for a screen protector
-standout feature of this case is the aramid finish wrapping around the case edge
-nobody else does that

MonoCarbon Carbon Fiber Case
-If MagSafe wasn’t a thing, this would have taken the place of the Latercase in this video
-nothing special about the product
Memumi Real Aramid Fiber
-disliked the design
-corners have been cut to ensure the case can be installed
-makes this relatively expensive product look really cheap
-not MagSafe compatible
Simple Carbon Fiber Classic Series
-the case that the Carbon Fiber is glued to is incredibly cheap
-way overpriced product
-poor build quality
-finish on the case scratches way to easily

Latercase 2023 Review - It Has One Fatal Flaw...

MobileReviewsEh 2023-12-17 | I finally bought more stuff from Latercase. The last time I did, 1/2 my order didn't show up BUT since I'm trying to figure out what the best Carbon Fiber case is, I figure I give this brand another go. Am I impressed? Nope.

There is one flaw with this product that holds it back. Sure it's incredible thin but at what point does being the thinnest case while negating one of the most important iPhone features mean anything?

I Tested The DBrand Ghost For 28 Days - Heres What I Know

MobileReviewsEh 2023-12-10 | There is one flaw on the DBrand Ghost that they need to address. I like the idea of the case and there are many neat design cues BUT it is not a good looking case after a few weeks.

My DBrand Ghost case showed up about a month ago and after this review, I'm taking it out of my rotation. The build quality of the case just isn't up to snuff for me.

🔌 vs. 🔋 - No Loss In Speed? MacBook Pro M3 Pro Speed Tests

MobileReviewsEh 2023-11-19 | So Apple claims that the speed of the newest M3 MacBook Pro doesn't change between being on battery power and being plugged in. I've never owned a laptop where that wasn't true. So putting this device to the test was definitely fun to do!

Unboxing the Latest MacBook Pro M3 Pro: First Impressions & Upcoming Tests!

MobileReviewsEh 2023-11-12 | Seriously...I was blown away by the new M3 MacBook Pro. The new color looks amazing, it sounds amazing...and you'll never guess what's in the box!

I've been using M1 Mac Mini's and M1 Studios for my editing for the last few years BUT my life is getting upended in a few months so I needed laptop for editing. Good thing Apple dropped new M3 Laptops!

The last Apple laptop I used was a 2019 MacBook Pro. Up until that point, I was editing using the MacBook Pro with an eGPU for a little bit of extra oompf. The moment the M1 came out and I saw the speeds, I sold the MacBook Pro and bought the Mac Mini.

I've got few more videos about the M3 MacBook Pro planned so stay tuned!
Does the MacBook Pro M3 really last 22 hours? - Video coming soon
Will the M3 Pro laptop chip outperform my M1 Pro desktop chip? - Video coming soon
Is the M3 MacBook Pro just as fast when it's on battery power? - Video coming soon

#reviewernotinfluencer #iphone15 #reviews

#5 ESR Armorite
-Disappointed with iPhone 15 version; inferior to iPhone 14 variant.
-Poor oleophobic coating, subpar glass strength, not as large.
-Still ranks better than 39 others, competitively priced.
-Regular ESR glass nearly as good, puzzling given the premium version’s -downgrade.

#4 DBrand Tempered Glass
-Surprisingly strong against direct impacts but edges are weaker.
-Edge strength is #26 out of 44, which is unexpected for a skin manufacturer.
-Downfalls are average oleophobic coating and installation tools.

#3 Torras/Ultra Glass
-Torras is similar to generic brands, shares the product with Ultra Glass.
-Strong oleophobic coating, good coverage, and better install tools than DBrand/ESR.
-Direct impact strength and edge durability are above average but not top-tier.
#2 Benks Glass Warrior
-Benks returns with Glass Warrior, a product with impressive oleophobic coating.
-Claims of sapphire coating and upgraded hardness don’t improve scratch resistance.
-Good coverage but doesn't fit iPhone 15 curves well, has an unusual charge port bump.
-High price at $50, the third most expensive of 44 tested.

#1 FloLab NanoArmor 5 3D
-Anti-glare glass melds with the iPhone 15's design.
-Exceptional durability with nearly the strongest edge strength.
-Priced at $40, higher than average but offers top-tier performance.

Top 7 iPhone 15 Accessories to Skip!

MobileReviewsEh 2023-10-15 | I go through a TON of accessories. I'd guess about a 1/3 of what I buy actually makes it into my videos. So here's 7 iPhone accessories that I'd stay away from because they're either a waste of money or just not useful.

#reviewernotinfluencer #iphone15 #reviews

Here's a summary of the products I'd stay away from:

Non MagSafe Cases

-Many non-MagSafe cases lack extra functionality.
-They may be chosen for aesthetic reasons or budget concerns.
-However, investing in MagSafe accessories offers long-term benefits.

Cases with Built-in Screen Protectors

-They often trap debris, risking screen scratches.
-iPhone's Ceramic Shield is already impact-resistant.
-Only exception: waterproof cases, where built-in protectors are essential.

Normal Qi Chargers

-MagSafe compatible phones should prioritize MagSafe chargers for optimal charging.
-With MagSafe, alignment ensures max charging speeds.
-Non-MagSafe may be cheaper, but often slower.

Camera Lens Protectors

-Most lens protectors are less durable than the lens they protect.
-They can interfere with photo quality due to extra layers.
-Some users opt for them for style, but they can easily detach.

Camera Covers

-Adding a cover is cumbersome and often unnecessary.
-Cameras are durable; prioritizing their protection over other phone parts doesn't make sense.

Camera Lens Attachments

-With iPhones now having multiple lenses, additional attachments can be overkill.
-They are mostly useful for content creators who rely solely on their iPhones.

Screen Protectors

-iPhones have a strong Ceramic Shield, but it can still scratch.
-Screen protectors offer a replaceable barrier against scratches.
-There's a trade-off between the feel of the phone's edges and protection.

🔹 Why USB-C for iPhone?
Apple's transition from the lightning cable to USB-C was a significant move. However, the USB-C market can be quite chaotic, making it hard for consumers to find a good product without proper guidance.

🔹 Value for Money? Not Always!
Interestingly, USB-C cables are one of the few product categories where the price doesn't always dictate quality.

🔹 Ranking Breakdown:

1. Mophie Fast Charge USB-C 3.1 to USB-C 3.1 Charging Cable ($10)

Surprisingly tops the list with its affordability and performance.
USB 3 cable with top-tier data transfer and charge speeds.
Braided design with a sleek metallic head.

2. Amazon Basics Double Braided Nylon USB C ($20)

-Affordable and part of Amazon's quality basic lineups.
-Unique double braided nylon design.
-Average charge speeds with slower data transfers among USB 3 cables.

3. FasGear USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 Cable (~$15)

-2nd best in data transfer tests.
-Average charging speeds but comes with a braided cable for better handling.
-Metallic head keeps the connector cool.

4. Cable Matters 10Gpbs USB C to USB C Monitor Cable (~$12)

-Superb charging and data transfer speeds.
-Basic design with a slightly tacky rubber coat.
-Distinct cable head shape for easier removal.

5. Anker Powerline III ($15 for 2)

-Best for standard iPhone 15 users.
-Excellent charging capability at an affordable price.
-Rubber-coated for a familiar Apple aesthetic.
-USB 2.0 with decent data transfer speeds, albeit not the fastest.

🔹 Notable Mentions:

Chubby Cable: Expensive but excellent handling.
Apple’s own cables rank lower with the 240W cable at #15 and the 60W cable (included with the iPhone 15) at #18.

🔹 Top Tip:
When shopping for USB-C cables, prioritize the USB version (USB2 or USB3). While USB2 may suffice for standard iPhone 15 users, those with the Pro versions aiming to connect their phones to drives should opt for USB3.

📌 Final Thoughts:
Don't be swayed by expensive cables with fancy finishes. It's essential to understand your requirements and make an informed decision.

Test Driven - Apples iPhone 15 FineWoven Case vs Silicon Case vs Clear Case

MobileReviewsEh 2023-10-01 | In today's deep dive, we're going re-explore the world of Apple's iPhone 15 cases. Specifically the FineWoven case after I've used it for 7-days. Oddly enough, my goto Apple branded case, the Silicone Case had a big red flag. More in the video!

See what colors Apple has for these cases (via Amazon links):

Apple Silicone Case Review:

-Slim and smooth design with a comfortable grip.
-Attracts pocket lint, especially on lighter colors.
-Loose corners raise concerns about face-first drops.
-Questionable fit for the iPhone Pro Max, especially on one side.

Apple Clear Case Review:

-Ultra-slick feel, reminiscent of a wet bar of soap.
-Tight buttons; excessive force can crack the case.
-Magnet for fingerprints and face grease.
-MagSafe accessories struggle to grip, especially on the smooth back.

Apple FineWoven Case Review:

-Initially slick but offers a secure feel when gripped harder.
-Fabric scuffs easily, showing wear after just a week.
-Memory foam under the fabric feels out of place.
-Issues with wear and tear rebound after using MagSafe accessories.
