Xiaomi Mi Max Accessories Discussion - Xiaomi Mi Max Accessories

Just want to ask if anyone bought any good screen protector / cases / etc that fits nicely or have good quality and where they got them.
Well for me,
I found this PZOZ Tempered Glass protector from aliexpress and it works really well
Like I've tried around 3-4 other brands (also from aliexpress) that have cuts that doesn't fit completely due to the 2.5D glass
This PZOZ one covers up the annoying black border around the phone too
Only con is that the white is a little bit too transparent so u can see through it (like you can see the black border behind)
It was really easy to set up and comes with the microfiber cloth/alcohol wipe/sticker and I've pulled and re pasted a few times with no problems .
Also found a frosted TPU case on aliexpress that fix nicely with all the cut out and it was much better quality compared to the normal TPU cases u can find cheaply all over aliexpress
Not sure If i'm allowed to post links but if anyone is interested you can pm me
Was thinking of grabbing an VR headset for Mi Max but it seems like there's just a few that barely supports the size so i'm unsure

Hi, I'm interested in buying some glass protector and a case can you send me the links?
Best Regards,

You should have opened this thread in the Accessories section...
Anyway I am using Xiaomi original TPU case and after a month with it I wouldn't recommend it. It was perfect fit when new but got too loose.
Just bought Nillkin super frosted shield case and I am pretty sure(hope) it's better than Xiaomi one. At least it's a hard case... what I prefer.

I bought this luxury case:

Could you send me the link for the screen protector please.Thank you.

I got this one today from eBay.
It sucks. It doesn't fit edge to edge, which is expected because of the curved glass, but even so, it still lifts up on the sides a lot. It went straight in the trash.

Bought a Nillkin protector today. Should be the best one available. I have one of these now and it feels cheep. Feels more like plastic than tempered glass. Also the oleophobic coating is bad and there's a vertical wide line where there's no coating at all so that area gets dirty all the time. It also has some annoying dot pattern over the whole screen area that can be seen very easily. Not impressed. The only good thing about it is that it covers the black frame although it's a bit transparent so you can see through it a little. Overall low quality of everyting but it works as protection.

Got my Nillkin yesterday and it's worthless. At both sides the adhesive doesn't stick so there's a nasty border on both sides where the protector does not stick. I threw it away in seconds.

Yep... As I expected this is an excellent case if you like that kind of cases. Perfect fit, excellent grip and fill, no more pushing buttons accidently when grabbing the phone... And keeps the device slick design.

Using soft TPU gel transparent case, i like to see the original beauty of the phone

I got this clear plastic hard case delivered today and for me its perfect. Slim, unobtrusive and gets the job done. Also the price means that if I accidentally scratch or crack it then I can just throw it away and get another one.

Using same, but black.
I have a very big spot in the middle of the screen, not air bubbles, but from the liquid stuff used for it to make it stick to the screen (I guess).
It is very annoying. I will probably take it off. Anyone know what I can use to reapply it, if I take it off and try to clean it?
It's my 3rd glass with issues. Had too small, not applying on sides, now it fits well, no air, but stupid spot issue.

I removed it, cleaned the back side of it without touching the edges that have some kind of glue on them, reapplied and now no more spots.

[Review] HTC Desire Commuter Series Case

Hello
A few days ago I received the Otterbox Commuter case for my HTC Desire ..
And I want to publish my review on this case .
{

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The Commuter Series Case comes in three layers :
Silicone case
Plastic cover
Screen Protector
* Design -
It looks much better from pictures I saw on there web site (www.otterbox.com) .
The case isn't more thick from the TPU Case .
* Quality -
High quality of materials .
There is a big quality difference between this case between 1-5 dollars cases on eBay.
* Protection:
The case feels good in hand .
Protection of three layers as I mentioned earlier
Silicon covers all ports (charging / USB and headphones) it's good thing against dust and moisture.
Silicon is higher from the screen so you can put the phone on the table without danger to the screen. Same thing about the camera , The silicone hard plastic gives you the possibility to put the phone against the back of the device without any damage to the camera .
Anyone who wants better protection than that (though in my opinion do not have to) you need to search for Otterbox Defender Case .
* Price:
Case costs $ 34.95 (without shipping) and you can find this case on - www.otterbox.com
- Advantages and disadvantages in Case that I found so far
Strengths:
Case with three layers -
A screen protector, silicone and hard plastic.
Silicon coverage covering all ports , something that I think is very helpful against dust and moisture.
Coverage isn't really thick .
Very easy to press the volume buttons, power button, something annoys me in TPU was hard to press the power button.
Weaknesses:
One small thing that annoys me is the dust on the accumulates up and down the exposed silicon area (because it's not hard silicone, also it has advantage and disadvantages).
Can be cleaned with a transfer finger on the dust or air.
This is an excellent Case . And this is the end result of my impressions from the Case :
Protection:
4.5 out of 5
Design:
4.5 out of 5
Price:
4 out of 5
Total
4.5 out of 5.
Images :
Hope you enjoyed my review
Thanks!

No one liked the review?
Looks nice! I rather prefer sleeves, but might buy a case for my Desire some day just to make sure it doesn't get any nasty damage .
I don't like this case because (from the pictures) it doesn't protect Desire right where is more fragile - edges.
EDIT: Or it does? :/ It seems like it has 2 covers (rubbers + plastic?)... cannot see really good.
i have one of these. agree 250% with your review. nice job btw. good pictures.
i have had one problem. ive taken the case off and put it back on so many times that the hard plastic cracked and the soft silicone tore a little. but its all gravy still works wonderfully and you cant see the cracked plastic or the tear. plus, i think im going to talk to my accessory vendor or otterbox about replacing my ****. they probably will.

Thank for your comments
Good review. Been rocking one on my Desire for almost a month. My one beef is how slick the hard plastic shell is. It needs a bit more grip to it. Other then that, great case!
How about screen protector
I ordered one commuter case,
And olsa Zagg shield on my desire, What do you think about peeling the old zagg shield ?
The hardcase is a bit too slick. Great review though!

If you don't have any bubbles on your ZAGG screen protector Do not install the otterbox screen protector . Save it until you will have problems with ZAGG .
I can't tell you anything about Otterbox screen protector because I'm using right now Martin Fields screen protector
screen protector works well. No complaints from me
Ive been using this case since the day it came out. I'm a truck and coach/heavy equipment mechanic and its held up quite nicely to the abuse it sees every day. I wonder if the Defender is that much better.

LMAO I totally agree. I went to grab mine, slipped off of the counter top of the sink in my bathroom, and dumped right into my toilet. Fished it out very quickly, phone was fine. well protected thanks to my case. but that sucked!
I had my case in the end. It's ok but it's not stylish as it seems from photos. It's screen protector is easy to install but it's size a little small i think. Case is bulkier than it seems also. But i think it's one of the best in the market. I'm thinking about that Jet black gel cases.

It's not too bulky in my opinion , It gives very good protection relative to his size.
Getting used to it and it Feels better.
I totally agree. I only use otter defender. Size over protection is livable. Dropped mine the other day off a 14 ft ladder and she just bounced no damage what so ever. Can't see using anything else. And defender has protector built in. Bonus.
Set Via XDA App
This is the case if you want protection and not a bulk one.
I lost my phone the last sunday in a snowy park and after 3 days under the snow I found it!
It's in excellent form. Only a scratch on the screen protector because of an iceberg
It was a miracle , I was ready to order a HTC desite hd .
Thank you HTC thank you otterbox

Updated with Pics! Diztronic TPU Case

Available here. As the title says, they are now released. I just ordered my One S tonight and going to order a couple of these cases. For those that have not tried this brand, I can assure you they are the best fitting and best quality you can get for a TPU case. I use one on my Galaxy S II.
Updated with Pictures!
So I received my phone yesterday (love it!) and decided to update this with pictures. It fits perfectly, snug, nothing loose and is thin and keeps the phone thin. My ONLY complaint is they didn't make an open port for the volume like usual. Instead they included volume buttons which are a little difficult to push but not a big deal. Pictures are of the Matte Black. Last picture is the Matte Black Translucent or Smoke if you will.

At last someone is offering a matt black case rather than glossy!
Look very good. Ordered one each of the matt black and translucent black.
These look nice, I might buy a couple. Thanks for the info.
How fat are they, like how much do they add to the thickness of the device?
relatively thin in comparison to other cases though you might notice it since you'd notice anything on a device this thin

It's probably one of the thinnest cases you'll find. Maybe the featherlite is thinner but does not protect the top and bottom. The quality of diztronic is 10 fold that of any cheap ebay tpu case. Below are some pictures of my SGSII (I apologize as I do not have my One S or case yet) with the matte black case on it and next to it. You CANNOT beat this case for $10.
First 2 are a side view with case on and then off.
Picture of the top so you can see the lip. The lip fits tightly and does not warp out or bow out over time. had this case for 5 months.
A couple side by side photos to see the size of the case next to the phone.
The case alone to see the quality of the build. No rough edges, has elevated lip around camera lense. Hole cutouts are precise and line up perfectly.
so are these cases in two pieces or one piece for the One S or do you know? I almost bought one off eBay over the weekend but was kinda iffy about the power button not being covered up.. from the looks of the power button i was kinda afraid that it would be hard to press if the case was very thick.. When do you think you are going to get your phone and case to possibly post pics of how it is on it?
one piece

It's one piece. My phone arrives Thursday so I can take pics then. I already have the cases, they are same great quality as the one I posted pics on. There is a cutout for the pwr button same as my SGSII, it does not hinder pushing the power button but will report back once I have the phone.
Can anyone tell me the differences between the
Diztronic High Gloss Translucent Black TPU Case
Diztronic Matte Back Black TPU Case
Diztronic Matte Back Translucent Black TPU Case
How does each one feel, look and which one is recommended for both their aesthetics and their protection? If anyone has any of these, please share your thoughts!

You rather buy all three and decide from there plus it's only $10 each.I have the Matte black but I don't use it anymore .I just don't like the look of it with the case, maybe cause this is my first ever case on a mobile phone I have ever own.

I am going in that direction, although I am buying at most, 2 of the cases.
Which two should I go with?
How's the camera lens protection with this one? Since the lens is so large, the only means of effective protection is to have the case slightly thicker around the lens, which will help lessen the chance of objects directly striking the lens. If the case protrudes a decent amount above the lens, that's GOOD.
Got my case today
Just got my diztronic case today (matte black) and it is pretty awesome. Still very thin but looks like it should protect the phone nicely. I dropped my last phone and cracked the screen so i am very paranoid about dropping this one.
My only complaint is that it came with a screen protector that is total crap.
Still it looks like a great case and is one hell of a deal.
they do not deliver in romania...

What do you mean by that the screen protector is crap? Is it a crystal clear version? How is it bad? I was counting on this as a screen protector, if it is not good then I may have to purchase another screen protector separately.
the cover is a hair thicker then the lense .I don't see a reason to use a screen protector since this phone has the gorilla glass ll ,I have a sensation and G2x with badly abuse and the screen is still like new.

I ordered the Matte black black and Matte Black Translucent. Both arrived today. They are pretty similar. The translucent one is not quite as dark as the black (but not as grey-looking as the pics on the website). Only the back is matte finish. The front is glossy. I prefer the translucent one as the glossy effect is less obvious then on the black one.
Very nice cases though. Fit well and feel good in the hand. Would recommend!

If your looking for someone to TELL you what to buy then stay away from the high gloss. It will most likely be a fingerprint magnet and show scratches more easily. You should note that all cases the front rim is high gloss. I do not know why, my guess is so it matches the screen.
Matte is the best for hiding fingerprints and marks/scratches.
I have both matte black and translucent matte black, both look good but won't have my phone until Thursday to put them on and take pictures. Stupid slow UPS!!!!
The screen protector was easily damaged by my fingernail. It was also very difficult to apply to the screen (but i have always been really bad apply those things).
Maybe you will have better luck but honestly i would go with a better screen protector. Right now i am thinking about just going without. The case makes it where the phone will never rest directly on the screen so i am not all that worried about screen damage.
This case is nice but i have to say with a phone this sexy it is a shame to put it in a case.

Review: Poetic Atmosphere Case

So i ordered this case on Saturday and received it today. It's made from a hardshell polycarbonate with soft rubberized surface. First off let me say that this case looks amazing, it's pretty thin and it has a decent sized lip for some protection against drops. Still I will be switching to my UAG case anytime I'm going to be drinking. I tested how the speaker sounded when place on its back and it does muffle the sound a bit. The cutouts are very precise so if you are going to be using any kind of headphones/chargers bigger than the Oem ones then this is not the case for you. Also, the power button seems to be a bit stiffer than previous cases I've used on my S4. Not too stiff where you have to press really hard but just a bit stiffer. Volumes are nice and easy to press. Overall very nice case and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a nice thin case with some decent protection. Now if you're going to be like me and turn into Mr. Fumbles when you're drinking then make sure you have a backup case for those times.
EDIT: Just received and installed the Iloome tempered glass screen protector. The phone still fits perfect on this case. Although I'm a little worried if this case will slowly peel off the glass as this case fits the phone pretty tight and it's a little hard to remove the phone from this case.
EDIT 2: Just an update, I decided to use this case today. Well i noticed it was kind of peeling off my Iloome tempered glass. I noticed two bubbles on the top of the screen and immediately took the case off, bubbles disappeared. Installed the case again and bubbles reappeared, seems as if these don't play too nice with tempered glass. And the iloome is one of the thinner ones (.26mm)

I've owned this same case for about a month now. I only got the S4 this week though. This case is amazing on it. I have the white GS4, I wanted a clear case with the white lining on it, but the cost is close to 2.5x as much as the tinted case with the grey lip. I chose the tinted case like the OP has. I give it a 9/10, although there is nothing I can complain about with it.
I got one too. I love it. So how is the glass screen protector holding up?

Pretty good, but I am constantly switching from the Poetic case, to my UAG case, to my Slim Armor case. So far no sign of it peeling off the tempered glass.

Poetic do an Atmosphere with a screen flap for the ip5, I'd like one of those for the s4.

USB Cutout
Is the USB cutout large enough for USB cables that are not stock Samsung (i.e. Palm Pre, HTC) I have those for my car and at work and I can't use them while the Neo Hybrid is on my device.

Nope, the cutout is exactly the same size as tbe the charger that came with the phone. So if yours are bigger than the stock it's not gonna fit.

I also just bought this case, and got it in the mail today. So far it seems like a pretty decent case, and I really like the look of it.
I also ordered one of the metal battery covers, and have it installed, with this case over it. The metal battery cover does add a bit of weight and a little more bulk, but this case fits perfect. One thing though, the USB cutout on the case got raised up slightly, so it is a really really tight fit to get the stock USB charger to plug in, but the case stretches just a bit and lets it go in just fine.
Here are a few pics I took earlier.
Does it of metal brush ? not clearly on the photo...
My mine gripe with this case is the clear/frosted look. It looks pretty bad on the blask mist, otherwise it was definitely worth it. You can find the same case for cheaper though. Luvvit, minisuit and boxwave all have it.

im using the same case with tech armor glass and it doesnt cause this, but it looks like the glass its just on the edge of the case, bought several good quality cases and i keep coming back to this case, im in love with it.
Ive had this case for about a week now and love it! Slim fit and texture is great. Works well with my Qi chargers as well.

Case Megathread

I think we should try to keep case discussions in one place. Please post your experiences with Redmi Note 9 cases!
Personally, I'm currently using the one in the box, but I was looking to maybe get something a little fancier. Although, to be honest, it's been significantly improved from past phones, it fits a lot more snuggly!
Anyone have any good cases with a kickstand to recommend maybe?
I got the Nillkin textured nylon fiber case from the official mi store. It's not too bulky but still seems to provide good protection and it feels so good in the hand imo.
I got one of these, good coverage and protection and has a clear back so you can still enjoy the rear panel colour. Also a ring/kick stand which is handy.

Is this one raised up around the back cam to protect it a bit? ?

Its raised around it a bit but camera still sits out a bit. I got a tempered glass screen protector which also came with a protector for the camera lens, so I've got some added protection too.

Cool case, thanks for sharing! I'll consider picking one up as well. Have you noticed any difference in Camera quality now that you have a tempered glass protector on top? I'm kinda concerned I'm gonna crack the module given how much it's protruding...

I'm very happy with it, good protection but doesn't add too much bulk. I havent noticed any difference with the camera, once its applied you wouldnt know its there to be honest.

I finally came across this one on Amazon. It actually comes out far enough to protect the camera bump and has a deep enough lip in the front to allow a tempered glass screen protector and still not touch the table if face down. Even though it is one piece it comes in seven colors.
Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro Max Case, TPU +PC Iron Armor Shockproof Designed Case,Full Body Dual Layer Rugged Cover for Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro/Redmi Note 9s/Redmi Note 9 Pro Max Case (Black)
Just yesterday I switched from the included case to a Nillkin Frosted Shield.
Never had a Nillkin case before so thought I'd give it a go. Seems OK for the price but did take 58 days for delivery to Australia, due to Covid I suspect.
The phone fits snuggly into the case and the cutouts are almost perfect but I'm not quite sure that it's the case that I'll be staying with.
Looking for something that feels a bit more grippy in the hand as I tend to drop my phone's a lot. And I'd feel more comfortable with something that also adds a little more protection from falls.
The Nillkin is nice enough, and affordable enough, for those who aren't as clumsy as me, but I'm sure there's better out there for those who are all thumbs.

Yes it covers the camera with a small bump so it won't hit the table. Same with the front. If you put glass screen protectors on front and back they will align exactly with the bumps.
I got this for my Note 9S. Got it for around $3
The build quality is not bad for its price. Its platic blue layer is not loose; will not fall or crack anytime soon. I can trust it if I drop my phone.
The bump between the case and the screen isn't quite deep so its recommended to use a thin screen protector.
In contrast, the camera bump is good even with a glass protector applied.
The ring can be used as a stand for portrait (only one angle) and landscape (two angle but one is a little bit unstable)
It does make the phone a little bit thick but its not something that will make it bulky when I put it on my side pocket.
Already collected some cases for my phone
- Ringke Fusion X, this is also good for best protection with slim profile
- Spigen Liquid Clear
- Spigen Tough Armor, by far best rugged case for note9pro
- Spigen Rugger Armor
It's Nillkin, you can slide for covering camera.. ,really nice, I want to buy it... ???
I've got this one.
No idea who is manufacturer.
It costed about 6,7 € (7,7 USD)
If you want quality then i suggest you go for Spigen or Ringke case. I've bought one of spigen case for my samsung galaxy s7 and it's still solid (not getting soft like cheap case) even after 1 year.
I got this case, costs around $2. Covers the camera too. Fits quite nice.
I got a Spigen case off eBay, its saved my phone from many drops. Would definitely purchase Spigen cases again whenever I change phones.

Screen Protectors & Cases

Anyone have one yet and have some good suggestions? I'm waiting for mine to arrive and don't see alot of options (that I like) on Amazon but so far I ordered these to start:
Screen Protector
Case
Phone and case today came in today .. Good fit and no complaints...same case you ordered...

Ordered the Ailiber case, glass screen protector and holster from Amazon. Seems like a good deal at $12.99 until Encased comes out with theirs (which I'm waiting for). According to Amazon there are 19 left and the manufacturer isn't producing any more.
i grabbed the spigen tempered glass screen protector, 2pack used em on both our phones that came today, comes with a frame you use to make alignment easier, honestly easiest screen protector ive ever put on. not sure what i want for a case yet
Just got the official fabric case, feels great, love it. Feels like i have a Nest Speaker in my end haha, same material it seems.
The case seems strong and is slim enough, goes a bit over the display, just like it should to be able to put the device face down, but not too much.
It almost exactly matches the camera bump in terms of height, like a quarter of a millimeter thicker so the glass doesn't touch whatever you put your device on.
All in all, very satisfied.
I have used Spigen Rugged Armor cases for 5 different devices including the 4a5G and am extremely happy with these.
NONZERS screen glass protectors are OKish, as they fit nicely, but the hole for the front camera is a little bit off. The 3 pack come with a mounting frame which makes installation a 30 second task.
Problem with LK screen protectors
So I've noticed this with LK screen protectors. There is always a small tiny piece on the edges that never really properly seals. I've used the same brand on the 4A and the same thing is there as well. Now, to be honest I did take the phone out of the case and went over the spots with a micro fiber cloth and one of them seemed to go away. If you're OCD then it will bug you. If not then it's fine. @zaibas do you have this issue with your Spiegen glass protector?
*Also maybe the case that I'm using but it does collect lint/dust on the edges. Nothing a quick wipedown can't fix.

As crazy as this sounds, I had the same problem on my current iphone se2 and a little olive oil on a qtip fills the gap nicely. I followed someone's guide on youtube and it came out great. 6 months later it doesn't look as good as the day I did it but it's still way better than when I first put the screen protector on, It was a huge ring around the entire screen and looked terrible

Thanks for posting this! I saw this some years ago, mine is miniscule now so I may just decide to live with it.

Very clean look bro.
I personally like a case and I always find a clear tpu to be the most grippy. I'm currently going between:
TopAce slim TPU: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08H26MD28/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Spigen (thicker) Ultra Hybrid: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08D65BG5X/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
The Spigen provides a little more protection, while the slimmer one is kinda nice in the hand considering how wide this phone already is.

Spigen Liquid Air Armor..
Any word on Spigen thin/slim or Ringke slim? The matte black ones that have a soft texture, feel grippy and are very thin.
If not any similar recommendations with good grip and thin?
Sure aren't many 4A (5G) cases to choose from on Amazon. I have the one from Huness coming on Monday for $9. But what about going caseless? Any ideas how scratch resistant the plastic core case is?
I ordered this one, at least until better ones show up. Or maybe it's good enough.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08K76KN4C/
I need a case because I have a metal plate for the magnet mount in the car. Also, protecting the phone is a good idea when trade-ins come along. My P2XL from 3 yrs ago is still in mint condition and took advantage of the $240 trade-in value for it at the Google Store.
Took plunge from 2XL with $235 trade. Phone still does everything I could ask, just no more updates. Anyone see a difference/downgrade in resolution?
Some stuff sold out on Amazon. Wanted thin case. Went to Spigen direct
https://www.spigen.com/collections/pixel-4a
30% off still active for BF.
Went ahead and got everything here. Liquid Armor, and glass for screen and camera.
Glass seems way expensive compared to what is available in Amazon. Anyone think there is a difference/worth the cost?
Camera protector is new to me. Might as well. Apple rejected a trade in last year because lens cover was cracked.
Liquid Armor...slim and textured with Adequate protection. First time in several generations of devices that I will not have a Diztronic case. Always loved them.
Have also grown used to sticking a pop-up handle on the back. Used to think they are gimmicky....but quickly grew used to it. Still slides in pocket. Really helps with one handed operation and makes phone way more secure in hand. Works as kickstand also! Wonder if there will be a problem with it sticking to the textured back of Liquid Armor?

I too think the screen in the P2XL is somewhat better when it comes to font crispness and contrast black on white. Colors seem a bit better on the 4a 5G.
I also agree that I could have gotten another year out of the P2XL if not for lack of updates.
It doesn't feel that the 4a 5G is an upgrade, more like a sideways move.

I got the spigen glass screen protector, and case. I agree the template to install the glass was awesome, and my application looks perfect. Also the case fits perfect around the screen cover. I am glad I went with a name brand, vs crappy stuff off ebay.
