2GB is good enough reason for me though the MYR's situation against the USD right now is compelling enough not to think about  it smile.gif

I would predict the new price for the 6's and 6s + to be another Rm200 to rm300 increase. So the new 6‘s + 64gb would be around Rm3850. thumbup.gif

Those who are currently using Iphones below 6 may find it a justifiable upgrade but IMHO those who are using 6/6+ may not find it justifiable enough.

Coupled with the current high exchange rate, the new models may cost more. Will wait out and see. There's not much improvement nowadays to really 'wow' the crowd, only incremental updates here and there. It will be nice if the next Iphone after this will be a total game-changer with industry's first in hardware and software.

This will sure attract the masses to upgrade.

maybe one number got 2 names? for example:

Susan - 0123456789
Susie - 0123456789

You could have duplicate contacts in your phone with the same number, e.g. Facebook => Susan, Google => Susie, etc.

I usually buy 16GB iPhones and when Apple's launching a new one, my storage space is just about to max out so it's an excellent excuse to upgrade, but with the 6 Plus I went for 64GB so no excuse to upgrade with another 40GB still available, ha ha ha...

As for the pricing, depends on telco's packages. I would never consider an iPhone at retail price.

Yes, I only buy iPhones via contract, so I make sure I only sign one year contract, which means mostly Celcom or maxis.. But I'm stuck with maxis now coz it's got the better coverage where I live...

I see, contract with Telco is a good choice I would say, the price for the phone itself is better than retail price...

I will consider for Telco as well smile.gif

End of June just get a refurbished unit for my 6 plus due to battery issue
Now the replacement unit got issue again
Dunno want to claim warranty or not as really troublesome
My plan now is if upgrade, directly sell without claim
If no upgrade, then I've to go Singapore again to claim
Should make decision once after the event as my warranty end at 22nd sept
Actually very bad luck, been using from i4 to i6. All I buy in Malaysia expect for i6. All bought in Malaysia de no issue at all, only this time for i6
