ouch. mind telling us (just generally) where your source got the info from?
just wanna approximate how true this will be.

think that wud be the best option now. ordering from SG store.
might take awhile, but better than keep holding on hoping that it comes to MY on the rumored dates.

population of using apple products in malaysia is surely more than sg, why don't apple release the iphone 5 in our country first? why malaysia don't have apple store? maybe license problem? they don't willing to pay for corruption? who knows.

bro i understand your dissatisfaction due to the wait. but at the end of the day, its still a phone. wont actually make or break you. i dont think anyone can give you a direct answer of why is it introduced in msia so late. and everyone also hopes for it to be launched as soon.

just b abit patient bro. the 'first few to have it' hype will die down eventually, and it will just be another phone.

alternatively, if you 'really' do need the phone badly, get from SG then.

Or simply a twist to the whole event, the bunting is actually a sample by an advertising company.

That will be the ultimate troll.

might be bro. ultimate troll really.

but looking at the banner, i gotta say it doesnt look very maxis-like.

Depends on how u use it? I've no scratches on mine so far and I don't use a casing either.

OK, here's one CON compared to the 4S. Battery life. It just doesn't last as long. Usage patterns on both phones are the same..in fact if I think about it, the iPhone 5 is getting used lesser than the 4S and yet I'm getting less battery life.

Hmm..since we're into CONs, how about having to spend another RM 69 for an additional lightning connector? One for the house and one for the office?  biggrin.gif

um ive been usingg my iP5 for more than a week already. but the first week itself, the chrome of the bezel already started to peel off. i have to mentioned that i am a very careful user. used my iP4 for about 2years now and nothing is wrong with it, cosmetically.

so that being said, i gotta say that the durability of the bezel part for the iP5 is generally very low, at least for the black one.

battery wise? yes i am abit disappointed at first when it didnt vary much from the iP4 i was using. den i went into settings a configured a few things. off'd a few things that i didnt need. and now one charge can last me from 9am to about 11pm?
i do use it quite often: calls/msgs/web surfing.
i think with a few tweaks of the settings, the battery life should be quite tolerable.

when using apple maps, still need data or can offline? like google maps?

yes bro, maps does need data to work, unlike garmin that relies on satellite to locate and navigate.

i just went to the maxis store just now and asked about the iphone 5 whether maybe i could pre-order it.. maxis said that i cant pre-order it as they themselves do not know when will the phone be launched.. they too dont know about the plan yet as well..
*
bro. i doubt those staff on the frontline will know anything about the phone launch. they wudnt wanna leak anything to avoid assumptions and judgements.
guess we all just have to wait for the official launch announcement. all the rumors that are being spread here as of now are untrue. unsure.gif

Hi, since the iPhone 5 topic is escalating. Should we organise a gathering and have a discussion and sharing?smile.gif This would be a good opportunity for every one of us here to get to know each other.

just meet up and talk about iPhone 5? arent we doing that now? no offense bro.
but perhaps after telcos launches the phone, with plan rates etc, then we wud have more things to discuss? biggrin.gif
