I want to preface this by saying, I ordered Magic’s nOH back in the summer, and I, and some others, had some complaints about it. I ordered it again this month and I can tell they definitely listened.
Communication: 10/10 I’ve ordered from Magic plenty of times and they’re always great to work with.
Cost: 10/10 I got this with the 50% off code so the ID alone was ~$45.
Shipping: 10/10 Even with everything going on with USPS and Christmas, I still got the ID in a little over 2 weeks, with regular shipping, which was a week faster than my original order in the summer.
Photoshop: 10/10 I can tell they spent more time editing my photo on the new one compared to the old. On the new one my face is zoomed in to the point where my shoulders are completely cut out and you can only see the wall in the top corners. On the old one that isn’t the case.
Template: 9/10 It’s basically identical to the old one; which my main gripe with was the coloration was slightly darker compared to a real ID, but you couldn’t really notice unless you held them side by side. Also i’m not sure if this counts as template but i’ll address it here anyways. The ID is much thicker and sturdier than the old one, which was a concern for me and I’ve seen it brought up here a few times. Also the new one is glossy feeing, where the old was super matte. The lens on the new one also looks better imo because it dosent glisten as much in the light.
Holos/UV: I can’t really rate this because Ohio dosent have holos, and I don’t have a UV light, but with the ID being thicker now, I don’t think the UV will bleed through, which i’ve seen some people point out in here.
Scanning: 10/10 Scans on Bcs and Scannr, should work at any place with basic scanners.
Signature: 10/10 It’s exactly the same signature I uploaded, but on the new one its smaller and more compressed, like a it is on the real ID. On the old one it’s big and spans the entirety of the bottom of the picture.
Overall i’d rate this ID a solid 8/10 maybe 9/10 but I don’t wanna overhype it. Overall this is a very solid choice for anyone on the East Coast, and Magic did a great job at addressing our major complaints.
