VERDICT

Hand phone sensitivity 5/5 (only cant fingerprint unlock, key pad unlock very precise)

Cooling 4.5/5 (very cooling very suited to our Malaysia humid weather)

Value for money 5/5 (RM109.00 good deal because its an original from Alpinestars)

Palm padding comfortability 3.5/5 (thicker abit would be perfect)

Note: If you didn’t test the size before purchasing, do get a size smaller than your usual size, as the cutting size is larger. Like me I normally wear S I would be fitting if i ordered XS.

Overall 3.5/5
