    How useful is the Surface Pen, with the Surface Laptop?

    bluefoam I believe for your case the pen would still be useful, but as it does not need to be that high-end, you can purchase the first surface pen (1024 levels of sensitivity). Its cheaper and does the job perfectly...

    What do you think of DIY Phone Cases?

    WOW these are super cool cases! Am glad to see there are people trying new things. :D And I particularly like how you showcase the phone while still maintaining the protection of the device. Great job! :)

    Battery banks don't work?

    I believe it's to do with the amperage of the battery bank. Lumia 950XL's charger outputs 3A (amps) but your battery bank may have a cap limit of 1.5-2A to protect its wiring from exceeding its capacity. In general most phones would still accept the battery bank even if its below the max...

    What do you think of DIY Phone Cases?

    Well the cover is nearly a year down the line. Around a month left if am not wrong. So once the 12month mark passes I'll upload a pic of what it looks like. Functionally its still the same but aesthetically it is a bit worn out.

    What do you think of DIY Phone Cases?

    Haha this is exactly what I meant when I said the benefit of not needing high-end equipment. Perhaps this idea would work better for developing countries for guys who like to stand out but at low-investment. That being said, I am still working on a timber-engraved phone cover. Once I am done I...

    What do you think of DIY Phone Cases?

    I agree with you on this, when it comes to standard mass production designs. But in my case (pun intended), the decal design as well as the customized notch design is my own, I had even entered it for a design contest, and as such want to keep it unique. The use of the cardstock to make covers...

    What do you think of DIY Phone Cases?

    Good question, i thought about it when I did the design. What I added was the double-layer cardstock in the corners so that the cardboard absorbs the shock if the phone falls down. So far my Lumia 640 has fallen down about 7-8 times with this cover on, and in different ways - landing straight...

    What do you think of DIY Phone Cases?

    Yeah, there is that chance of it happening, but I'll just stay positive that people would rather ask than take the idea. The point of the post was not to share pics, but the idea that there are always cheaper solutions to tech accessories without need for constant machine use and shipping...

    Pray do tell, how does design work if you can't showcase it? :P

    This is the final product on the phone. The decal at the back helps in gripping the phone though being a Lumia 640 with its straight edges its fairly easy to grip on its own. (ps: the design is NOT free-to-use. If you wish to make your own, kindly consult me beforehand :) )

    This is what the net drawing cut out usually looks like. (ps: the design is NOT free-to-use. If you wish to make your own, kindly consult me beforehand :) )

    What do you think of DIY Phone Cases?

    There are plenty of customization options available for phone cases, but rarely do they come cheap. And by cheap, am talking of below a dollar. So what do you think of creating your own home-made phone cases? Below I am attaching pics of what I made in Kenya with normal cardstock, cost me...

    Microsoft Lumia gone from stores

    Haha same here. The supply is dwindling weirdly, and all the Lumia's in my country are getting scooped up by customers. We just have to handle our phones carefully until the next iteration of microsoft products start. (lets go get that shock absorbing phone cover!!! :P)
