Understand that everyone is now waiting in line at the Gardens for their new Iphone4. drool.gif Wish I could be there as well, but I'm from Penang and not crazy enough to drive all the way there line up past midnight to get my hands on one. But still, I will get one when it's released nationwide.
My question now, what is the difference if we purchase the Iphone4 at Maxis Centre versus MEP (such as Switch)?
How about the warranty cover etc? Will purchase made at Switch, warranty will still be covered by Maxis? unsure.gif

The other day I called Maxis (123) and asked this. The operator mention that the warranty will be covered by the seller you buy from. E.g, you buy from Maxis, then they will cover for you.

Anyone has any comment? Or is this a damn stupid topic to talk about. blush.gif

Honestly if you purchase from maxis and meps it's the same and warraty is also cover by maxis so no issues on that but in terms of knowledge and service maxis centre will be better thumbup.gif

You can purchase on 27 if u are out of klang valley area sad.gif the 5% is not service tax but our beloved gov tax. The amount for tax is based on your total bill usage.

it should be like this.. maxis offer 1390 for 24 months..that's for fair comparison to Digi..

iDigi 88 (5% for postpaid line every month & no autobilling service)
[(RM63 x 24 months) x 1.05] + RM2090 (for iPhone 4) = RM 3677.6

Maxis iValue 1
RM100 x 24 months + RM1390 (for iPhone 4) = RM 3790

for total payment.. digi will be much expensive bcoz of the 1st time payment..
Digi have to pay RM3677.6 at one go during the registration..

but maxis only RM 1390 + RM400 during the registration.. so ask ur CC limit.. which service provider to go..

if limit is not an obstacle..then choose a wiser plan instead.. =)

i know it is not worth to compared like that , just i personally feel the maxis set are more cheaper although the the ivalue data a little bit expensive too . i m just thinking to calculate for the cheapest path to get the iphone4

digi 3g coverage ? hmm , not much area have it right.?

i see.. if you see total payment i would say digi is the cheapest.. but if you care about put whole big amount in your credit card..then consider maxis..
yup..got frens working in maxis tower, klcc.. he said even at floor 33..digi connection is sucks..  sweat.gif  sweat.gif  maybe maxis did something in their building?  doh.gif

btw..heard that maxis is selling iphone outright? how much will it cost? any EPP on that?
sure can..you will be charged RM25 if not mistaken..

Rate Plan T&C

6 Purchase of an iPhone must be accompanied with any of the above rate plans. Maxis reserves the right to rescind some of the privileges of the rate plans should the registered line not be used with the purchased iPhone.

I don't think we can buy outright. I'm also planning to buy outright doh.gif . Hope there will be a prepaid plan.

p/s: thanks 4 answering my question smile.gif

Just to clarify..aren't it cheaper if take iphone 4 under maxis plan for 12 months contract period compared to digi which only offers contract period of 24 months minimum..correct me if i'm wrong as the calculation i made was :

Maxis :
RM100 (ivalue 1) X 12 ( contract period ) + RM1690 ( for 16gig ) = RM2890

Digi :
RM63 ( digi 1st plan ) X 24 + 5% tax + RM2090 ( for 16gig ) = RM3677

Even if Digi we calculate as 12 months :

RM 63 X 12 +5% tax + RM2090 = RM2883 ( it's the same price with maxis 12 months plan )

The only benefit with maxis is after you finish your 12 months contract u might consider changing to other plans which are cheaper or reduce in data plan plan or in any other way which eventually will be cheaper in long run. But with digi..you will have to continue to pay rm63 for 2 years..

Correct me if this is wrong..: )

its RM58 for two years
and iPhone is coming out new model every year so I see no point to tied yourself with 2 years contract. brows.gif
