Nope, I did remove it. I guess the case simply sucks.
I ran some Geekbench tests just for fun. The scores are just hurtful.
4235 single/ 10487 multi for iPhone X, and 3465 single/10773 multi for the Note 10+ (At least the Note beats it for multi, but that's the original X. Not the XS or the iPhone 11)
That's at least tolerable scores... but:
In GPU Compute,
15356 on iPhone X (Metal) vs 7724 RenderScript on Note 10+. Talk about an absolute SLAUGHTER! That just hurts.
Hopefully, none of this matters much when playing on Android.
