Yes, I think the 6 retail price is to be expected, no surprises. But 6+ is really freaking expensive shocking.gif

Especially ridiculous if you are getting the +. Slap on another expensive silly casing like element case and sp would cost you another Rm500 to rm700 and total cost of owner ship would easily touch rm4k already. rclxub.gif

6+ and 6 where got so big price difference? All Apple phones are overpriced, but people still buy them.

Spot on. Compare with MacBook Air with 128gb SSD !
I'm an Apple fan with most of their products but In my opinion Pricing for their Phones are ridiculous.

I don't agree with their pricing either... win some, lose some right? Interestingly, in Malaysia, Apple products are generally cheap (relative to original Apple US pricing) across the board compared with anywhere else in the world... except when it comes to iPhones doh.gif Well, at least we aren't paying European prices right?

Apple products are not cheap in Malaysia, don't be disillusioned by the currency exchange. Take for example a person earning RM5000, SGD5000 and AUD5000 monthly, and this particular person wants to buy an iPhone 6 Plus 64GB. In Malaysia it's RM3149, Singapore SGD1288 and AUD1129. If you take the 5000 base salary as a comparison, that iPhone would cost more than 60% of that Malaysian's salary. Is it cheap?

If you look at the contract price of the phones in other countries compared to ours, it'll make you even more sick.

Is it me or are the RRP prices different for different telco?

Tried to check but I think there's a slight difference when comparing the plans. Can someone please post up on first post once available? Many thanks.

Think I give up on getting with a contract - plans don't really suit my needs and budget. May wait for retail sale then switch to SurfMore MAXIS. unless I change my mind again ...

Contract prices aside (which I completely agree are steaming piles of crap), anyone who travels for work (not necessarily many Malaysians) is probably relatively happy with Apple prices in Malaysia compared to US (which is slightly off the currency exchange) sans iPhone. If you're talking about earning power, relative disposable income, and all that... I blame our government.

do you think the OIS worth us to spent another 300 buck ?  hmm.gif

if you think more a bit, with 300 more you also get bigger screen, higher ppi (if that's your preference smile.gif )
with 6+, u don't have to pinch that much, becoz all you'll see will be bigger, like in browsing, texting. And if you always watching videos, also have bigger display.
Also if you use in landscape, you'll get split screen for texting for example, and in browser you'll have tab view like in the iPad.
As for OIS, doesn't seem to be much differ in photo shooting, although in low-light condition. But it will get better for video capture.
As for me, one-hand use is more important than anything else. Maybe for some people, the 6+ also comfortable to use. smile.gif

they can pull off 16Gb, just have 32 64 128 for iphone 6 which is same price to 5S 16 32 64, but they remain 16gb instead just to make everyone think is worth

storage is getting cheaper, not expensive

Good point about the landscape mode. Imagine if other third parties start optimising their apps for the landscape view as well. Tremendous possibilities.

Should be salah anwar ibrahim lor. Penasihat selangor x guna. LOL


But i agree, our apple product accross macbook, ipad, imac, iphone are genarally cheaper compare to other countries like singapore etc2. Someone might compare telco, but we are talking about RRP where the price is not subsidised. If u talk about subsidised, open a telco company and give free phone then. Or migrate saja to other country like what umno and alvin tan said.
