Put you predictions here. I predict the iPhone 4S will officially launch by maxis on 25th November 2011. When do you think?

Here's my prediction:
1-2 weeks before Christmas. Its not possible between Christmas and New Year due to holidays almost everywhere.
Most probably between 7-14 December. tongue.gif

Somehow you guys heard some tips from Maxis and Digi.... That's great! But Celcom is sooo quiet! Celcom is always a latecomer...*sigh*

I agree 100% with the forumers who expect Maxis to launch iPhone 4S on 25/11.

Firstly, all the civil servants, bank employees and government pensioners will get their salaries around 21/11-24/11. So it makes sense for the telcos to time the launch when millions of rakyat are flushed with cash. In fact, last year's iPhone 4 was launched on 24/9 for the same reason (among others), I believe.

Secondly, school holidays will have started on 18/11 and this gives telcos and possibly Apple resellers about 1 week to recruit & train part-timers (if necessary) to help out during the launch.

Thirdly, 28/11 (Monday) is also a public holiday...so launching on 25/11 (Friday) would allow the telcos to organise the launch over an 'extended' weekend. And since it's a long weekend, even people from outside KL could easily make a trip to KL to join in the launch event.

Also, a two-weeks' gap would seem a reasonable time frame between each wave of launch (e.g. HK's launch on 11/11 came 2 weeks after Singapore's 28/10 launch)...so the next wave of launch would likely be 25/11.

Of course, it's all just my hunch but I'm sure many forumers are also expecting it to launch on 25/11 in Malaysia.

Edited: as clarified by deepan84 below.

I spoke too soon... Both Maxis and Celcom iPhone 4S launch will be delayed. An insider told me this.
This might be true because there are many countries have recently launched theirs on 11/11/11.
Apple is having problems with their production - not enough to cater for the demand worldwide.

I heard about it too, i hope it isnt true. Another insider told me, due to this, Maxis might launch it on the 2nd or 5th December. I hope not. I hope they would stick to my prediction which is on 25th Nov.

Anyone wants iPhone 4S 64GB white can still order from SG Apple Online Store...
Looking at the situation, December date is most likely. In order for them to pre-order on Malaysia Online Store, it should take another 1-2 weeks for them stock the iPhone 4S for the launch. Today is already Nov. 13... thus Nov. 25 is most unlikely date.

Looking at the trend, I don't think Malaysia will sell iPhone 4S without a contract on the Apple Online.

Hey guys just wondering will 32GB sufficient for daily occasional photo shots? I know that the average photo will be between 1-2MB? Was thinking of 32GB but 64GB sounds to be future-proof.

Yes, i got myyself 64GB.
Enough for a lot of things... ;-)

This is a non issue for me
I have a juice pack plus as it can power the iPhone 4 from dead to full.

Getting a mophie is a no brainer and any iPhone user should have one.

I used to have mophie juice but it adds up to the thickness... I think a portable battery backup is much better, right?

Y i see a lot of people saying not worth getting ip4s if oredi got ip4? Especially in webs review....i juz went from apple premium reseller and compare my ip4s with ip4 display model...i can see a lot diffrent in terms of speed...ip4 seems lags so much...or maybe the display set got problem????

If you have the money to splash... don't hesitate to get the 4S.
Otherwise, you can still live with the iPhone 4.
I am telling you this because I owned both iPhone 4 and 4S... smile.gif

Mine is also SG set.
I just hope Siri can support Malaysian Map very soon. Otherwise, like most people said, that's nothing much 4S can offer except the speed and the camera.
