As many people declaring gold is the most ugly for iphone 6,
But i decide to go for it,
when i see the demo sets, wow, space grey is really heart-touching...
but since i already bought case for gold iphone 6, so i keep my mind to gold,
and now, seriously GOLD is really nice colors XD
Compare my friends space grey side by side, using tough armor together,
Mine looks so damm amazing compare to his 1...
Not to deny the finishing on space grey is really nice but snap a case on it  rclxms.gif
GOLD are sharp biggrin.gif

Space Gray is best used without case IMO.

My sentiments exactly. I would take either color, I guess. I just don't fancy gold.

Do you think Malaysia still getting the first batch since it's already more than a month since the release ?

I will buy it today but I read some opinions to not buy the iPhone 6 yet and wait for the second batch to arrive ? What do you think ?

I think we're definitely not the first batch already since so many countries got it so much earlier than us. If you're gunning for a 64GB one I think definitely have to wait already since most places sold out.
*
Darn it, you're right.

I checked all authorised resellers in Kuching with my mom today, and there's no stock for 64GB and 128GB iPhone 6. Only 16GB is available. So, no iPhone 6 for me today. Nevertheless, I hope I can get it by next week.

Nope, only the authorised resellers like IT Fusion and Switch.

Yup, am still sore with Apple for not having 32GB as the entry level given the prices we are paying!

So are you going to get 16GB or 64GB ?

64GB from maxis.

Thing is, before the phones became available here I was very sure I wanted a 6 plus, now that I've held both demo units in my hands,  I'm not sure anymore, coz the 6 is dem sexy smile.gif
*
I am getting the 6 because I have small hand, and I will use the camera a lot so 6 will be easier to hold compared to 6 Plus.

Thing is I'm still not convinced the battery life of the 6 will carry me through the day on a single charge. I'm very convinced the 6 Plus will smile.gif

Yeah, 6 Plus has long battery life based on reviews.

Well, just choose which want you want, smaller size or long battery life. You can't get both at the moment.

Maybe we get to see OIS and longer battery life on iPhone 6S or iPhone 7. By the way, Apple should know that not everyone want a big phone.

Would be nice if we can get some official numbers on 6 vs 6 plus sales, but I doubt Apple will share those kind of info with the public, hehe...

All models sold out anyway.

If I still can't get iPhone 6 by next week, then I think I will buy online via Apple Store.

I think you should forget waiting for new stock and start place your order on Apple Online Store.
Lessons from the past showed it is very unlikely for those resellers to get replenish stock within a week.
*
Yeah, I already asked my mom to buy via Apple Store, plus Spigen case and tempered SP.

My iPhone 6 64GB will be available to ship in 2 or 3 weeks, while other models are available to ship within 5 to 7 days. Fuuuu.

QUOTE(attw @ Nov 9 2014, 12:52 PM)
I've got no choice but to wait for subsidised sets from Telco, don't wanna pay retail prices for the phone, a bit too expensive in my opinion.

How ?

How about if I take it to Singapore? Is the warranty for Maxis iPhone international or just in Malaysia?
*
No, it's not international. Also, if you bought your iPhone from a carrier, such as Maxis, then you need to bring it back to them for warranty claim.

what is 'Background App Refresh ?'
*
Pretty self explanatory, it's a setting that allows apps to refresh in the background. Just go to Settings > General > Background App Refresh.

You can turn it off completely or you can just allow certain apps to refresh in the background.

Hey, did you guys know that you can record 3K video on your iPhone using some apps such as MoviePro ?

I think I'm going to try this app and see its performance on iPhone 6.

https://itunes.apple.com/my/app/moviepro-vi...d547101144?mt=8

Other apps that allow 3K/4K recording : Ultrakam Pro ($6.99), Vizzywig 8xHD ($49.99).

anyone know how to download apps that apart from MY app store?

Just create another Apple ID and select different country. Sign out from your current Apple ID, and search for a free app, download, and it will prompt you to create a new Apple ID. Just proceed.

IINM, changing country using your existing Apple ID requires a valid payment method for that particular country.
