found this,looks like sweet deal to me

usb 3.0 optical drive cost 120euro cheapest here

and look how shiny it is,all it needs is fake apple logo

is it even real 3.0

ORICO HDD-SSD cases are a steal for their price

its just a cheap circuit board, plastic and cable

really what does an external enclosure cost

@Millwood I think gearbest if the coupon still works

I uuuuh

have that phone

inb4 airports ban mi A1 on plane

Shit, I sleep close to that phone

rn3p didnt explode so far 3 years

btw I sleep with it charging inside a night table

SO if it explodes im relatively safe

You can't escape the eternal chink

My RN3P battery started bloating though

Case is opening due to pressure of bloating battery on both sides

OH SNAP

my case was always opening

I did quite a heavy bend on it

But not due to battery

the space where the voume control it it has bended somewhat outwards

The volume control is on the other side

My battery was bloating a lot when I replaced it

But it was probably due to air pressure. I bought it 2016 in Kaohsiung, 3m above sea level, stayed there for 2 months and then took it to Switzerland at 600 meter above sea level

And that's exactly when it started bloating

So I think something must have damaged it either because of the flight or because of the altitude difference

Because I had the same problem with a chink drone 2 years ago

Took it from Taiwan and the battery started bloating after a while that I was here. But when I was in Taiwan, all was good

I had a HTC and Xiaomi phone with me

I live in a country where I took my phone up form the sea to a big mountain here

like 1400m above sea to climb

I also have been in about 6 flights +++ with them

damn these chink brands are copying samsung

Nothing happened to batteries, besides, cabins are pressurized. and even when driving a car up and down steep hills which happen often here you can feel pressure in your ears

Well obviously it doesn't happen on all devices but just defective ones
