i currently using prepaid and my usage is average. it's just that i keep hunting down for wifi sometimes for fb-ing insta-ing and times like using the map when i go other states for fun with friends then i have to buy the one day internet access pass. i didn't want to go for digi due to coverage and been maxis user since 1st phone. i still able to pay myself the rm100 permonth just that nid to refinance my expences. just wondering 12 or 24-month maybe also due to the iphone price varies for 12 and 24- month contract

12 month plan is best as in one year time the plan will change and will definitely be cheaper than now
Really admired you students that can afford such high end phones.
Even though i can afford to buy it, I will never pay more than RM 500 for a phone for my 3 children. Infact all of them graduated past 1-5 years with their still RM300-500 phones. Call me old fashion, I feel Students should spend time studying and not playing with their phones. I do not mind spending RM5K for a MacBook Air as it helps them in their studies. Since all of them working now, they are free to buy whatever phone no matter how expensive it is

There are still people who don't get it I guess. Apple's whole strategy is to make gadgets that everyone knows how to use with low learning curve, that's why almost all their software still looks the same as a few years back, their whole purpose is so that people won't have to re-learn to use their products. You may not like it like that, but some people like it that way. And if you read business analysis sites, the reason their stocks dropped is due to low production rates.

Typical response from a iphone lover
I guess you must still be a student to understand the mechanism of stock prices

I cannot see why constructive criticism cannot be tolerated when an honest opinion is being made on the basis of fact that a device having been in the hands of the critic making an objectively qualified statement to the contrary.

We need to agree to disagree and don't take to heart.  We are all gadget lovers, not apple or droid fanboy. Chill out, relax

I agree with you
Those who has already got it can comment anything about it , good or bad
Worse and not acceptable are those who criticize or even praise without owing it
I will give my comments when i have it

Hi all, I have recently just purchased a Maxis set iPhone 5 from another user.

But they said need to send to Maxis to unbrick it.
Problem is that I already changed Telco and is not a Maxis user anymore.

How should I proceed on this? Can other telco do this too or is it only applicable to Maxis Units?

Any experienced people, please advise. Thanks.
*
Msian iphones is not locked to any telco
What do you mean unbrick
Just put in your simcard n you can just use it fine

If u browse using 3G it will much more faster , in future there will be LTE.

The upcoming LTE is all based on 2600mhz while ip5 required maximum band is 1800mhz. So until all telcos given 1800mhz band which is uncertain the ip5 can only use current 3g/h/h+
