Why not check out "Occasions+" at the App Store? Other than being a reminder for birthdays or events, this app can also be used to track Malaysian holidays, if you set holidays to our country.

But better still, should you be a frequent traveler overseas, you can also select from a whole list of other countries' holidays, including Singapore, Australia, China, the USA, United Kingdom, and South Africa, to name a few. And it also has a selection of religious events, including Buddhist, Christian, Hindu, and Islamic! rclxms.gif

Which is why I don't need to have the holidays bundled into Calendar or Fantastical, but just use Occasions+ instead! thumbup.gif

thanks for the info..

i'll add on to the complain list

1. going to settings must go home screen or a particular screen, not immediately accessible
2. control centre cannot mod (i want to off on location also cannot)
3. why is location services under privacy? why not under wifi / bluetooth / cellular (senseless)
4. why touch id and passcode not under privacy? >.<
5. why no torrent apps allowed? is torrent a banned technology as dictated by apple?
6. when in full screen, notification is so intrusive. cannot be smart a bit and don't have the whole damn banner coming down to block game controls?
7. for those that say no problem with apple apps because curated what nonsense, kuwo with all permissions removed etc etc (fresh install), can still run in the background consuming "usage" time

should submit this complaint to apple..or email tim cook..hehe
i have read people commenting/complaint the above issue in apple forum also..

QUOTE(Connect2USales @ Mar 4 2015, 11:26 AM)
been reading all your thoughts... while i do agree on some of your points, allow me to address your point no 5.

Why no torrent apps allowed. As we all know, apple is all about copyright (you can hate them but thats why some companies love them so much, no piracy) Just ask anyone, what do you download using torrent software / apps? Then you should get the reason why it's not allowed.

for point 6, i do agree the notification always disturbing especially if you are playing games or watching movies. Thats why sometimes i turn off the notification before that.

But there's a question i would like to ask...

why spend so much to buy a phone that you hate? ( i dont use "dislike" as based on your list, it seems to be you are hating iPhone more than disliking it) Why not just stay with android? It's your money and no one is forcing u to use one.

(btw, I'm using both iOS and Android, not a fanboy of any brand)
*
im neutral also..both android and ios have good and bad..
but for me, i dont have to praise apple like they are so perfect on everything..hehe

QUOTE(alexng2208 @ Mar 4 2015, 11:43 AM)
i agree but then again it comes to the point that why can a company dictate what are you using it for instead of the app owner lol how about legitimate uses (if any at all lol)

turn off before games, then on back, very un-apple

i don't hate and i don't dislike

i'm neutral and am just pointing out that no platform is perfect and this is my wishlist so to speak. if the discussion here is always about battery, where to buy, what case to get, this thread is going to be as boring as yesterday's news. there are no new user add-able features, no development team except apples and jailbreak is out of the question.

so what else to discuss when its all basically comparing who has longer battery life, who has a nicer case, who has screen protector instead of really thinking and feeling that there are things to be sorted out

What are you looking at? Transparent, ruggedized, or leather, or even something else altogether? hmm.gif

This is the one I'm using and it's quite a nice, transparent case with rubber sides for solid grasp. It's the Spigen Ultra Hybrid and I got the one that is mint color for my iPhone 6 at the MacStudio Live! in Jaya Shopping Center, Petaling Jaya for $69.00. And if I'm not wrong, there's also one for the 6 Plus but I'm not sure what colors are available though. rclxms.gif

it is a very good deal. but i never trust lazada. You dont know where the stock come from and sometimes you dunno who is the seller

good deal..
the seller stated there is Galaxy Solution..
might want to google it first, check their office and numbers to confirm..

i bought iphone5s for my sister from lazada..
seller stated 1 year local manufacturer warranty = Apple malaysia warranty..
good service by lazada

RUMOUR: NEXT GEN IPHONE WILL HAVE 2GB RAM, FORCE TOUCH AND APPLE SIM

user posted image

It’s been about half a year since Apple launched the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, and if you’re already sick of those devices, here’s something you might look forward to. The next generation iPhone is reported to sport 2GB of RAM, Force Touch and interestingly, Apple SIM.

According to AppleInsider, the next generation iPhone should be the iPhone 6s, meaning that it will only receive upgrades on the inside while the exterior will remain exactly the same. There should also be a Plus version too, which will also feature similar hardware under a larger display.

The report from AppleInsider goes on to say that their sources are saying that Apple is considering shipping the Apple SIM inside its next generation iPhone(s). Apple SIM, which debuted in the iPad Air 2, allows consumers to sign up to any carrier directly from the Settings app, and switch whenever they want. Sadly though, the feature is not available in Malaysia – imagine the freedom it’ll give users. It’s a strange move though and I’m sure their local carriers will not be happy about that because with Apple SIM, these carriers would lose all their contract customers.

Finally, Appleinsider also says that Apple is considering the use of Force Touch for its next iPhone(s). They did not mention how things would work, but imagine something similar to Force Touch on the Apple Watch, which, should be launched in less than 5 days!

force touch..wonder how apple will market this features..
seems every year apple will launch a new iPhone..
anybody follow the trend? meaning straight away buy new iphone once they out?

QUOTE(tutuyao @ Mar 5 2015, 11:31 AM)
why dont grab from SenQ or Sen Heng? i always tell ppl to get it from them..

reason being they provide extra 1 year warranty service and 1-1 exchange no question ask within 1st year warranty. second year warranty depends on the damage of the phone.
*
1. no stock
2. lazada price cheaper + extra 10% discount

I skipped the "S" versions, i.e. 4S, 5S, so my upgrade cycle is once in two years.

Also the article started by saying it's been 6 months since the phone was launched - some of us here just got it a month or two ago!
*
good strategy to skip the 'S' version

my personal record now is iphone 4 use for 4 years..lucky no issue at all..

and i am one the people who just got the ip6+ haha

QUOTE(attw @ Mar 5 2015, 02:36 PM)
More RAM is OK if the power management is as efficient as it is now.
*
power consumption also..afraid more RAM use too much of battery..
but apple will optimize it for sure..

QUOTE(zaxxshoxx @ Mar 6 2015, 07:50 AM)
Refurbished? Are you sure?

fight for it bro..reputable company..surely can get new one..
its in the warranty right.. 1-2-1 replacement if manufacturing defect..
all da best!
