QUOTE(maxilife1 @ Mar 10 2015, 05:13 PM) me will do the same thing..haha actually im eying for pebble time steel or alcatel one touch watch.. and some news say android gear will support ios in future  That last sentence of yours caught my eye. If that's the case, it will be the first time EVER that iOS is licensed to third-party gadget manufacturers! But the smart-watch market is indeed one to watch out for, although competition is bound to increase, with big electronic players like Apple, Samsung, and Alcatel challenging the "traditional" manufacturers!

Damn it, our weak currency makes the prices for iPhone 6 and 6 Plus increased.  Though I already made up my mind not to get any iPhone 6 this year but will wait for the next generation of iPhone, this news certainly turns me off. I will expect higher price for the next iPhone which I will get once it is out in Oct or Nov... This post has been edited by fruitie: Mar 10 2015, 05:39 PM

At least by that time, I know my company will subsidize me RM 800 to purchase any phone on my liking. So still not too bad.

Guys is it me or this is a known issues for iphone? Regarding whatsapp why is it have to wait for it to establish a connection when open? When the notification already tell you there is a message but if u straight away open have to wait for the connection then the message will appear..  Was an android user where whatsapp is instantly readable when you received.. Or is there something i miss?

When you get a notification that message is actually already downloaded into the phone. Unlike iOS, if you have a notification, you need to download the actual message when you open the app. (always happens when I have slow connections. I get the notification, open the app, nada then connecting...)

That is how iOS handles background app and notifications. What you received was only the push notification but not the real message. That way, an app does not need to run just to "download" the message and cause battery usage.
