QUOTE(Axel95 @ Oct 17 2014, 08:08 AM) it seems like apple wanted to install the touch id on the iPad mini to enable pay and they don't really want to call it iPad mini 2 updated. In a way, if you were planning to buy an iPad mini, you can spend the same amount of money you initially wanted to spend before on an iPad mini with pay enabled, plus you get the gold option. If you can't be arsed about those features, then you saved $100. Apple Pay still requires NFC unfortunately. |

QUOTE(Axel95 @ Oct 22 2014, 06:49 AM) You can purchase stuff online with apple pay Will not be practical to most of the Malaysian users.Not even 20% of the retail stores in Malaysia have implemented PayWave for credit cards. Talking about Apple Pay? Dream on. Online shopping? Most of the buyers shop in websites such as Forum lowyat, lelong and mudah which involves COD and Banking in because the seller are not registered to do business. No Malaysians in their right mind will shop in official online stores except for apple and xiaomi which xiaomi doesnt even have an app to implement the Apple Pay's API. Apple's online store app does, but how often do you purchase a new device? Basically, I believe most of us here only use it for unlocking their device and installing paid apps, thats about it. Enough said, iPad Mini 2 is still a wiser choice since it has the same specs. |

QUOTE(Axel95 @ Oct 22 2014, 11:08 AM) You can use apple pay on pretty much any websites that requires you to use credit card to purchase. I know quite a lot of people who buys clothes and gadgets online. They can use apple pay for that. And lets be honest. How many of us actually upgrade our iPads every year? I'm still using iPad 4 and I'm not planning to upgrade it as much as I want to upgrade my iPhone. Hence, if you think you don't need a touch ID on your iPad mini for the next few years when apple pay is maybe as relevant in malaysia as it is in the USA atm, then be my guest. Save yourself a few hundreds for the mini 2. The API is implemented for websites as well? (Safari only of course)Look at the mini 3 as mini 2 + touch ID. same price as the mini 2 before the release of mini 3 but with touch ID and an added gold option. Well, I stand my point here, I would choose iPad Air 2 than iPad Mini 3 any day because I could actually see an hardware improvement. |

QUOTE(Axel95 @ Oct 22 2014, 11:40 AM) its like the keychain access in OS X. instead of filling up your credit card details you can access your passbook and validate it with touch ID. yea definitely Air 2 instead of mini 3. I'm saying that i'd choose the mini 3 instead of the mini 2 just coz of the added feature OK, I'd choose Mini 3 if its RM999  QUOTE(NoKusshon @ Oct 22 2014, 01:43 PM) You have a strong point here..that why i'm still confuse to get ipad mini 3 or ipad mini 2, since i don't even care about that "Apple Pay"..my focus is on ipad mini for portable purpose Mini 2 then.Unless you insists on getting Gold version. Then I'm speechless. |
