Sorry to bring in politics here but don't we have an idiot like Chua Tee Yong as Deputy Finance Minister? He certainly does not know what to do with our weak $$$, unlike a more brilliant strategist like Tun M! shakehead.gif

And since today's GST Day, I want to just pay a visit to Digital Mall and Jaya SC (both are very near my office) and see how the crowd is, when it comes to buying IT stuff, especially the two Apple Resellers in the area - [i] Store and Mac Studio Live. I won't be surprised to see fewer people for the coming days, as the effects of GST implementation bites hard! rclxub.gif

I would like to ask something about all these 'taken with iPhone 6' billboards I see.  How can an 8MP image be blown up into full billboard size without loss of quality?  They were edited?

Most likely, although this is how this iPhone 6-taken photo of the Big Three towers in Shanghai look, when I was there on holiday last week. rclxms.gif

The image quality's still good actually, when blown up in a PC monitor, but I also wonder how they actually magnified the photo on to a big billboard, without noticeable pixelation (even my photo is a bit grainy here)! notworthy.gif

Yes, that's what I'm doing nowadays. I prefer to wait and see whether the phones of those who installed the new updates are negatively affected, before deciding to follow suit. hmm.gif

Of course, if the initial release gives a ton of problems (not surprising, by the way), I'll just delay the installation and wait for firmware updates instead! thumbup.gif

Anyway, I've calculated. Even at the exchange rate of 2.7, it is now officially cheaper to get your iGadget from Singapore

But this one takes the cake - it's surprisingly crisp and clear, considering that's also an iPhone 6-taken photo of the Big Three from ground level! rclxms.gif

By the way, for this Shanghai trip, I didn't take my regular digital camera and used only the iPhone to take photos. And the results were better than expected, to be honest! thumbup.gif

So our friends in JB are lucky, since they can just cross the Causeway or Second Link to get their Apple stuff, resulting in Machines, Switch, etc. losing sales to the Resellers in the Lion City! rclxub.gif

Whilst us here have to purposely make a holiday or business trip to SG just to get ours, haha! laugh.gif

Lag is one of the worst things that any new update can do to our phones, but another irritating thing is the poorer battery life, especially in certain versions of iOS 8! shakehead.gif

I know right? So the iPhone 6 indeed has one of the best cameras of any smartphone today! rclxms.gif

What a HUGE difference, compared with the camera of the iPhone 5S, what more my ageing iPod touch 5! laugh.gif

Yup, probably those rich businesspeople, CEOs of multinational firms, or Sunway / Monash university students (haha!) can still buy their Apple stuff without blinking an eye! laugh.gif

Unlike the rest of the general Malaysian public, who will see a BIG hole in their pockets when deciding to buy ANY smartphone from today onwards! rclxub.gif

By the way, I want to create a new thread for iPhone 6 photography. Or has such a thread been opened previously and is currently dormant?

I simply use the mute switch on the left side of the phone during office hour.
