No need to speculate when you can drop by 1Utama to have a better info. I think they will be setting up their booths today since the date of the event starts today.

I wouldn't want to reach there and saw only Blackberry event. I already asked one of the DiGi staff yesterday, she said that this event is only cater for the new Blackberry. I'm not so sure whether they are informed or not.

then the data plan limit, free sms, mms still apply as contract wor?

wah, like this damn nice la. can use android phone smile.gif

iphone has high price, but low cost call plan....like this i also want to get an iphone d...selling the phone but keep the plan.

WOHOO!

p.s. on another note, i think digi's network can auto detect our phone model lor.
*
There must be 1 in million people doing that. Since 3GS does not have this problem, most probably I can assume that it can be used on other phone too. If not, does it mean, you won't be able to use the number for anything if your iPhone spoiled or etc etc?

Hmm if i take easy payment as opposed to paying upfront at the end of the day i have to pay RM196 more.

Easy payment

RM1587.60/24months = RM66.15/month

Upfront payment = RM58/month (with auto billing)

Hmm .. do i get a discount with Easy Payment + Auto billing ?
*
If you sum out 24 months payment and tax it by 5%, how much would it be?

Hmm, maybe not. I also feel quite kelam kabut

5% + $478.80 more

because

Maxis plan includes 333 min talk time vs Digi 200 min talk time.

[133mins x 0.15sen/min] 24 months = $478.80

I've always wanted to sus out these Marketing maze Telcos come up with.

Bottomline: Digi is more by just over $100 but for me a subscriber comes up ahead with Digi and its unlimited internet package - important point when using iPhone.

My last post on this thread, mod marah...
*
Alright let's put it this way.

If you call and sms awful lot, Maxis is always the best choice for you.

If you use internet a lot on phone, DiGi is always the best choice for you.

For my case,I am actually using it on other phone that allowed wifi tethering, so I will benefit more by using DiGi.

The only good way to know which one is good enough is observe your previous bill statement. If Maxis free so many call time and SMS, and you actually can't optimize it, then there is no point for you to subscribe to Maxis.

The point above is vice versa of DiGi.

P/S : It is not hard to hit 1GB limit on internet nowaday.

@bryanhee

how many time you want to link the same thing over and over? There's been at least 5 links earlier.

people are more interested in official price as it might have slightly different pricing (assumption)

Maybe it seemed more expensive because tax is inclusive in the EPP.

I can't understand what's the Advance Payment do though.

No, only pay for iPhone price.

Cash = RM2090.

That's it.

Then pay your monthly bill normally.

I just discussed with a friend. It seems to me that the Maxis deal is better when we take the lower end package.

Maxis iValue 1
RM100 x 12 months + RM1990 (for iPhone 4) = RM3190

iDiGi 88
RM58 x 12 months + RM2490 (for iPhone 4) = RM3186

Difference: DiGi is cheaper by RM4.

However, Maxis offers 333mins talktime vs DiGi's 200mins talktime. Also, with DiGi, you are bound for 2 years, while Maxis only for 1 year.
*
Long term, DiGi reasonable.

Short term, Maxis reasonable.

Get the point?

To be honest, both is almost the same.

Call more = maxis
Surf prawn more = digi

But ist that the same as the 3gs offer?i thought the logic was if you pay more monthly,the phone will be cheaper to pay upfront?
*
This has been repeated so many times I believe.

Digi do not earn a lot from selling iPhone 4, so they compensated it by reducing it to RM63(with good data plan) if compared to Maxis.

Maxis earn from their package, and they selling it at lower price for iPhone 4(I believe there's some deal between Maxis & Apple, if compared to DiGi & Apple)

DiGi need to protect its shareholder, I won't explain much here, but if you comparing it on long-term basis, 2 years.

DiGi is always better than Maxis provided that you USED a lot on internet and less on voice calling and SMS'es.
