IMHO, the use of term “magical” isn’t meant for us techies who know more about the inner workings rather it is for the regular customers whom I have actually heard call technical wonders, “magical.”

So many techies on this forum whom whine about terms Apple uses to describe the product that average consumers relate with just need to get over it! Again, IMHO.  

Great video! Completely agree on all accounts.

Looked interesting — right up until the term 'power brick' made its unwanted appearance.

No sale.

Hmmm... how else would they be able to power a total of 43w to 4 devices without a proper power adapter? Were you thinking they included it in the slim hub? For me, that seems like the trade-off.

Wowser! Great video of videos!

As a matter of interest what case is everyone looking to get for the Max. The choices in the UK are extremely limited at the moment. I need something with protection such as the UAG particularly considering the glass construct and the cost of repairs. Would be interested to hear and thanks in advance.

I’m usually a “naturalist” and don’t use a case, especially on the plus models because it adds more bulk to an already large device.  However, when I do use a case, I’m a “minimalist” and I’ve placed an order with Totallee for one of their frosted clear cases. It’s nice and thin!

How do you like the Totalee cases? I usually go with the Apple silicone cases but think I want to go as minimal as possible with my new XS Max. Any idea how Totalee cases compare to Peel cases? I know both are supposed to be among this thinnest available. 

This will be my first time getting a Totallee case. I have used the Spigen Air Skin in the past which is similar and really liked it! It’s super thin and protects from scratches and dings. I’m only trying Totallee over Spigen this time because they have them in stock now and I’m going on a trip the evening that the XS Max arrives.
