Hands-On
Xiaomi Mi Max unboxing and hands-on review

When Xiaomi decided to go big with their next smartphone, they weren’t kidding. The Mi Max overshadows most handsets in terms of size, pushing 6.44 inches of display on a full-metal body. It’s by far the China-based manufacturer’s largest phone since starting out, and it has GadgetMatch’s full attention right now.
As part of a series of supersized midranger reviews, the Mi Max currently sits at the top of the screen charts, eclipsing the 6-inch Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro and Sony Xperia XA Ultra we reviewed recently. But this isn’t the largest of the set; a certain Zen is going to impose its even more overbearing size over the competition soon.
Fortunately for the Mi Max, display size isn’t the only major feature Xiaomi jammed into it. We also have a fingerprint sensor on the back panel, a generous 4GB of RAM with 128GB of storage configuration, and an extra-large 4,850mAh battery capacity.
Could this be your next GadgetMatch? Watch the unboxing and hands-on video above to see our initial impressions, but don’t decide until we unveil all smartphones at the same time in our grand shootout. It’s a comparison you can’t afford to miss!


Already rocking the new iPhone 14 series but looking for cases that are fab and fancy? Well, Moshi is here to save you!
As of this writing, it’s Pride Month — and GadgetMatch is celebrating all genders in the spectrum.
These cases are perfect regardless of how you identify yourself. And even if you’re a guy, you could rock these too.
Heck it’s 2023! Stop putting stereotypes on case designs and colors. Be confident and BE YOU!
Swift unboxing
While Moshi’s set of accessories aren’t limited to the new iPhone 14 series, what we have here are cases that are specially-meant for the new iPhones.
With its clear packaging, you can clearly see the case details including the leather texture as well as the golden touch of its logo.
Right out of the box, it already entices you with its 10-year warranty.
Unlike the previous Moshi iPhone 13 case collection I’ve held last year, the new Moshi cases for the iPhone 14 series now have MagSafe built-in instead of their in-house SnapTo technology which is limited to Moshi cases and accessories only.
For product authenticity, no need to worry as these have ready-to-scratch seals for serial code activation. All you have to do is to grab your iPhone, open the camera app, scan the QR code, and fill-in your necessary details to activate the product.
And if the photos above did not satisfy you at all, here’s the unboxing of the two fab cases caught on video.

Moshi Napa Slim in Lavender Purple
Most of you were probably looking at that golden camera cutout. Well, it’s not just painted in gold as this camera cover is an aircraft-grade aluminum for better durability when laid out flat on tables or put in rugged pockets.
And as already shown earlier, the back of the Moshi Napa Slim is crafted with a vegan premium leather for that added grip and better texture when held. Speaking of better texture, the inside of the case has a microfiber inner lining to avoid unwanted scratches when putting the phone in.
The Moshi Napa Slim case is lightweight at just 94 grams (or 0.2 pounds). Durability-wise, it features a hybrid shock-absorbing frame that resists shocks when dropped all throughout.
The power button and volume rockers are also made out of aluminum-grade aluminum for that tactile response.
Setting up a pretty lockscreen wallpaper and an #OOTD that adds complement to the case and completes that fab and fancy look.
The Moshi Napa Slim is also available in three more colors including Serene Gray, Midnight Black, and Juniper Green. The regular iPhone 14 and 14 Pro cases retail at US$ 45.95 while the bigger cases meant for the iPhone 14 Plus and Pro Max siblings sells for US$ 49.95.
Moshi Overture with Detachable Wallet in Serene Gray
On the outside, the Moshi Overture isn’t any different from its Napa Slim case sibling.
It features that strong anodized aluminum camera cover that is also raised — also for unwanted camera scratches.
The same can be said with its power and volume buttons — irresistibly tactile to the touch.
Et voilà! With MagSafe built-in onto the case itself, the wallet stand attachment perfectly snaps into place.
Like previously mentioned, this case also has a built-in wallet with up to three (3) slots for your debit, credit, and even transit cards.
And as already teased earlier, the Moshi Overture features this golden circular element when you completely cover your iPhone that blends well to its premium vegan leather skin as well as its microfiber lining and the same shock-absorbing frame.
And just like that, it looks classy and fabulous too — even if you’re a heterosexual male without an ounce of fragile masculinity 🤩
Moshi’s Overture case with Detachable Wallet is also available in a Midnight Black colorway. It retails for US$ 65.95 for the smaller-sized iPhone 14 and 14 Pro while a dollar more (US$ 66.95) for the larger iPhone 14 Plus and Pro Max variants.
