iPhone 6 isn’t simply bigger — it’s better in every way. Larger, yet dramatically thinner. More powerful, but remarkably power efficient. With a smooth metal surface that seamlessly meets the new Retina HD display. It’s one continuous form where hardware and software function in perfect unison, creating a new generation of iPhone that’s better by any measure.

Welcome to the official iPhone 6 / 6 Plus thread V7.

the benefit of the price increase= higher resale value, I think most of ppl at garage sales already revise their price

By right, the guy heading the Finance Ministry should look at pegging the MYR with USD, like what Tun M did when things went out of hand back in 1997. But while consumers will be happy, the exporters will make noise at reduced earnings, when playing with the currency rates! shocking.gif

Sigh, no pleasing both sides of the equation eh? sad.gif

someone offered me iPhone 6 imported from SG with attractive price, wondering is SG set warranty covered by Apple Malaysia? ( As the seller said "the iPhone 6 has international warranty, no worry" )

However, i did some quick research, people said that all Apple products have international warranty BUT not iPhone, iPhone only has local warranty, but these posts were couple years ago, i need some updated information.

And the seller mentioned, no physical receipt provided, coz iPhone warranty should be register online, is that true?

Hope someone could answer me, thanks in advanced and appreciate it.

In the past 6 versions of this thread discussions were centered around

1. Stock availability
2. Warranty (local vs imported sets)

And of course...

3. Battery life!

There's a dedicated thread for iOS 8, so I'm guessing issues regarding 8.2 will go there.

As for the price increase, ya, another round of bombardment expected when GST comes into play on April 1st

someone offered me iPhone 6 imported from SG with attractive price, wondering is SG set warranty covered by Apple Malaysia? ( As the seller said "the iPhone 6 has international warranty, no worry" )

However, i did some quick research, people said that all Apple products have international warranty BUT not iPhone, iPhone only has local warranty, but these posts were couple years ago, i need some updated information.

And the seller mentioned, no physical receipt provided, coz iPhone warranty should be register online, is that true?

Hope someone could answer me, thanks in advanced and appreciate it.

another irresponsible seller. iphone doesnt comes with international warranty. only ipad and macbook series international warranty.

no receipt? while Apple you can check the imei online, sometimes when claimed warranty, they have the right to request for the proof of purchase. without that, they may reject your warranty claim.

There's a dedicated thread for iOS 8, so I'm guessing issues regarding 8.2 will go there.

As for the price increase, ya, another round of bombardment expected when GST comes into play on April 1st

for iphone to have international warranty you have to buy the apple extended care or something and only available through online.. the one at m'sia authorised reseller sell apple care is for other products beside iPhone.. this one i ask when i bought mine at machines sunway pyramid.. he told me got one fella from dubai send for warranty with the apple care thingy for international warranty and his iPhone is gold front and back sweat.gif he said don't bother to buy the international warranty, too expensive according to him.. i didn't ask how much tongue.gif

and its good to keep receipt.. buyer will feel more secure if want to buy/sell..

Wish to check your guys on a warranty issue:

I just back from Krabi and my iPhone 6 plus was spoiled due to sea water splash, it's totally down now and due to the auto warranty is automatically void when water splash so I didn't send back to Telco to claim warranty.

I have send to outside service centre which I'm familiar and they after chemical clean up and diagnose, they mentioned the screen is gone and need to replace a full set, also the is a signal error 1 which mean a processing board need to be changed (I don't know what is that exactly), they mentioned it will charge RM 1,600 if do all the necessary repair (that is insane)

But the service center mentioned they are willing to offer a trade in of the phone with a RMA set of iPhone 6 plus, with same capacity and same spec and the RMA is never been used, but I gotta top up another RM 1500 to get that RMA phone.

So now is the question:

Is it worth to get this RMA phone?

This is my battery usage, since the phone was charged yesterday. The "plugged in since the last full charge" was when I connected the phone to my car's auxiliary slot to play music, when sending my son to Kindergarten before heading to the office after that. rclxms.gif

Boleh tahan lah, considering I didn't play any games like Asphalt 8 or Bejeweled 3 this morning, otherwise the battery percentage would have been much lower! laugh.gif

You should meet your regular Service Center and let them show you the RMA phone. If it's still in good shape and like a brand new phone, just take it, as it's cheaper by $100.00 compared with a repair job and you get a workable replacement! thumbup.gif

Just be careful with your phone when you head to the sea in future, okay? icon_rolleyes.gif

Nope. Its something to do with the kind of lcd and the glue they apply to the lcd which leads the different colour of the screen.

Strangely though, I noticed that for telcos, mostly is iPhone 6 out of stock and they have stocks for 6 Plus.

Now that the price has increased I expect the sales to decline a little.

"Decline a little" seems right, as people may not be keen to buy the iPhones outright, but probably would look at signing up a contract with the telcos instead. hmm.gif

Problem with the iOS firmware itself? But like the others said, do a backup first and then restore your device to factory settings, before reinstalling everything once more.

Hopefully that helps! rclxms.gif

Not just for Apples but even Samsung's two new high-end models will get hit, since phones and other gadgets are not GST-exempted items, unfortunately! sad.gif

Problem with the iOS firmware itself? But like the others said, do a backup first and then restore your device to factory settings, before reinstalling everything once more.

Hopefully that helps! rclxms.gif

Im afraid the whole market will just slow down. Everybody is burdened or will feel burdened no matter what the government says and will cut spending which in turn is not really a good sign for the market and economy. sweat.gif

Yes. We can expect the "purchasing power" declining after GST, really not good for econ if citizen spending less money.

Sorry to go off-topic but I just saw news (from Malay Mail's online version) that an UMNO GST task force member, Mr. Lokman Noor Adam, got booed and heckled by University of Malaya students while explaining about the reasoning for GST, during a forum organized by the said university. They were not convinced by the justification given by Mr. Lokman on GST, and it's hard not to blame the students as their spending power will indeed be affected!

And at the same time, that UMNO guy also got grilled by the other forum panelist, one Mr. Rafizi Ramli, to loud applause! laugh.gif
(Link: http://www.themalaymailonline.com/malaysia...government-rep)

Also, by cutting spending, I worry that the bad times of 1997 will return, when spending was at a low point due to the economic crisis, sparked by the collapse of the Thai economy! icon_question.gif

MIUI has real time clock, calendar, and compass icons. Yes the compass needle rotates as you move the phone! Need to install some themes. The original Xiaomi theme is without the compass AFAIK. I think they came out with it first before iPhone...

If not mistaken 8.1.1 was buggy. 8.1.2 was more stable.

I've not face any issues with 8.2 yet although there have been complaints by other forumers.

Unless you jailbreak, I don't think it's possible to organize your photos without iTunes.

I ditched my Mi3 just after a month of usage. It felt like an iOS rip-off and there were quite a number of bugs in the native browser and email app. It's a great value-for-money phone, but just not my cup of tea smile.gif

Xiaomi started by ripping off Apple. Surely you know that...

I never use native browser and email app in any phone so I guess my experience is mostly the same across OSes.

Ok. So now the iPhone increases the price as much as 200.
After GST, the iPhone will be more expensive for 150.
So we can expect the price of iPhone this April as low as rm2700++.
Maybe also the same case with other upcoming flagship phones.

At least Apple released their iPhone 6 and 6 Plus last year, but what about Samsung? They recently debuted their two new flagships but people will find it expensive with the increase in USD as well as GST being taken into account! sad.gif

Here's an interesting scenario that's happening in Malaysia right now:
Malaysian consumers buying more phones, but total overall expenditure decreased. That says a lot.
So we can expect it could be worse in the future.

Perhaps outright purchases will be sluggish, but I do foresee many signing contracts and getting their phones with subsidies from telcos.

Which means more and more people buying phones that offer better value compared to the premium brands.

Enter Xiaomi, Asus, Huawei, Lenovo, etc.

What is interesting is the latest flagship phones from the above companies are already beginning to be priced in the somewhat more premium category. For example the Mi Note, Honor 6 Plus and Ascend 7, Vibe Z2 Pro, etc.

Except maybe for Asus.

So what some people I know who are involved in the smartphone wholesale business are correct, i.e. Android high-end models from Samsung will see lower sales compared with the lower-priced, up-and-coming China brands (premium models notwithstanding). hmm.gif

And we'll definitely see more of Oppo, Vivo, Huawei, and Lenovo billboards in the coming year too, in addition to those already placed by Apple to promote the beautiful photos taken by iPhone 6 users! laugh.gif

Sorry , have to post this out cuz I find it very dumb . Friend cracked his glass on his 6+ so followed him to get it repaired . Went to a few shops and finally found 1 with 1k for replacement . Replacement need to be done as a whole set with digitizer so fair enough . However , screen replacement goes by capacity rclxub.gif . A 16G screen cant fit into 64G or 128G and vice versa . If it's fitted differently , the led brightness goes up half way only , meaning your brightest is actually in the middle for normal screen .
So the guy , technician , said he didnt believe it himself so gave it a try . Tried it with 16G and 128G screen on my friend's 64G . Sure enough , the screen is not bright . Finally , he went a "borrow" a 64G screen from the shops nearby and of course , it works . Now , who on earth makes screen according to phone capacity ? Only Apple can do it or someone correct me if i'm wrong

Uh...well...no flamewar...but this is patently (pun totally intended) absurd and an extraordinary affront to sensibility, not to mention the insane amount of curation (of course fapple is orga$mic about this) of your inventory and replacement stock management.

However, it is fapple after all and ab$urdity of the highe$t order can be expected, both of them and their userba$e.

1K for screen replacement? I rather top up additional RM400 to get it replaced by Apple Malaysia. At least they will replace the phone and still comes with warranty. If replaced outside, warranty will void altogether..

Agreed. The prices is starting to get quite ridiculous. For God sake it is just a handphone. It needs to do better than this. I'll buy it with that hefty price tag if it can mow my lawn and cook me dinner.

The warranty is going to cover just for the new screen or the whole things inside the phone? I have an understanding once cracked = warranty is void due to impact?

1) Ensure the LTE mode is on in Settings
2) Update to latest iOS.
3) update latest carrier settings. Force it by going to settings - general - about

Ultimately need to check the LTE coverage is running in which network spectrum. 1900mhz, 2600mhz etc.

If you just got the phone with new sim card, you may need to call 123 and ask the operator to activate the LTE setting.

You need to make sure your account is LTE enabled. You need to ask your CS at the Celcom Centre or call your Celcom call centre to activate it. Make sure that your Carrier settings are updated to the latest from Celcom too. Do make sure your network conectivity are set to LTE enabled too.

U need to call , I seem to have this problem every time i replace my sim with Celcom . They "forgot" to activate my LTE . Just tell CS your LTE not activated . And also , I'm sure you're on mobile data plan right ? There 's a minimum of 1G data plan to have LTE if I'm not mistaken , dont know if it still applies now

Call Celcom CS and ask them to reset the network port on THEIR side. And you will get 4G.

Need some clarification;

You guys, when you say 4G/LTE, do you actually get '4G' or 'LTE' showing on the top status bar and Settings > Cellular? I have no idea how Malaysian telcos classify things. In Singapore (where I live/work) 4G and LTE are the same. Some telcos display '4G' and some display 'LTE', but both are the same performance.

How does it work here? Is it something like the U.S where you get both 4G and LTE on the same network (U.S 4G is actually 3.5G performance, while their LTE is true 4G ... at least for AT&T) or is it just different wording depending on the telco/carrier, like in S'pore?

Just curious because I have a Celcom Xpax prepaid for when I come back to J.B to visit my mum on weekends, and it shows '4G' in the statusbar. Needed to call to activate that, btw. Tried a couple of times and the operator buat-bodoh saying already activate but my area no coverage, so the third time I went to the main Celcom store in J.B town center and called the operator from my phone, telling them I was in the middle of a 4G area and was still getting 3G only. It worked. They opened some "report" (probably bullsh*t) and I got 4G within a couple of hours.

^ Is that true? I thought it depended on the carrier firmware - the updates that you get once in a while when you go to Settings > General > About.

My iPhone 6 is an Australian set. Says 4G both on my Singapore carrier and Celcom. My gf is on the same carrier as me and her iPhone 5s (Singapore set) also says 4G. Another collegue's iPhone 6 (also Singapore set) says LTE, but he's using a different telco from my gf and me.

Yezz, it depends on carrier itself. DiGi and Maxis shows LTE, Celcom shows 4G.

Need some clarification;

You guys, when you say 4G/LTE, do you actually get '4G' or  'LTE' showing on the top status bar and Settings > Cellular? I have no idea how Malaysian telcos classify things. In Singapore (where I live/work) 4G and LTE are the same. Some telcos display '4G' and some display 'LTE', but both are the same performance.

How does it work here? Is it something like the U.S where you get both 4G and LTE on the same network (U.S 4G is actually 3.5G performance, while their LTE is true 4G ... at least for AT&T) or is it just different wording depending on the telco/carrier, like in S'pore?

Just curious because I have a Celcom Xpax prepaid for when I come back to J.B to visit my mum on weekends, and it shows '4G' in the statusbar. Needed to call to activate that, btw. Tried a couple of times and the operator buat-bodoh saying already activate but my area no coverage, so the third time I went to the main Celcom store in J.B town center and called the operator from my phone, telling them I was in the middle of a 4G area and was still getting 3G only. It worked. They opened some "report" (probably bullsh*t) and I got 4G within a couple of hours.

Like mentioned, its just a "Display Name". Both 4G and LTE are the of the same network and spectrum. It is up to your carrier what it wants to display on your phone. You can even customize it to display your own name but then your phones need to be jailbreaked.

There would be an announcement in the next 6 months or so as traditionally iPhones are announced in September. If I were you at this stage I would wait, even of you don't buy the new ones., the older ones get a slight price reduction

Depends. If you think it will be a huge upgrade to change phones now, better pull the trigger... With GST Coming soon and the RM.

Waiting for the September iPhones is a better choice if your current phone is fine. However, keep in mind that the Malaysian launch is much later, plus the initial low stocks... Might be a while before you can get the color and capacity you want.

Yeah android phones may have better hardware in some cases, but iOS simply beats android in the apps department and ecosystem.. Especially if you have multiple iOS devices.

I think iPhone 6 stocks are more readily available now, we are already halfway through its life cycle already.

If you're used to the size , get the 6+ if price isn't an issue. you'll love the better screen , camera and fantastic battery life. I personally got the iPhone 6, as I prefer a more pocketable phone tongue.gif

When I was switching and trying Android decided to try Nexus 7 first to see how the ecosystem is and customization. Didn't like it that much compared to iOS.

Yeah its a big bigger thanks to the huge bezels, but think should be manageable. Perhaps you could try it before buying?

I think all resellers are selling at the new price already, not sure about telcos.

If you can afford it I'll suggest 64 GB, but depends on your usage la. If you're a light user then I guess you could live with 16GB.

I personally like the Space Gray finish. biggrin.gif

Stocks should be aplenty now. iFans already bought them. Fence-sitters either would have bought them already, or decided not to after the price increase. If you look at Garage Sales, there are so many people selling new sets lower than RRP.

6 Plus is bigger than Note due to the inefficient bezel size. If I have to buy at RRP, I would buy at Senheng/SenQ as you can join as a member for RM1x and get an extra year of warranty, and some credit card has 0% interest payment plan as well. I can't fill up my 16GB iPhone, what the heck do you guys use them for?

On 8.2 i notice that touch id cannot be used during charging.. Anyone having this problem?

Ya kah? Haven't really upgraded yet but when it comes to charging, the TouchID works fine on iOS 8.1.3 though! thumbup.gif

I'm also likely to upgrade my iPhone to iOS 8.2 later, when I get back to the office. I left my notebook switched on in my condo to download that firmware last night, haha! rclxms.gif

i cant decide too
i really miss iphone , ex iphone 4 user
the apps is amazing and more quality compared to android apps
android have all this stupid apps , its like any kind of apps will get approved no matter how bad

btw i remembered iphone 4 was really hard to get stock last time, how bout iphone 6 , i think its easier bcause my bro just got one,
im thinking to get iphone 6 or 6 plus, cant decide but the price is so expensive
currently using htc one m8, the speaker is amazing and thats the only thing that impress me

If it's pricey, just check either Lazada or the sellers here on LYN's Garage Sales. Prices of iPhones (both the 6 and Plus) sold in both online marketplaces are quite competitive, and supposedly even lower than the Malaysian RRP! rclxms.gif

And yeah, while I agree that Android has one heck of a huge marketshare compared with iOS (thanks to their affordable phones with great hardware + features), nothing beats the overall experience of using Apple's firmware, especially when it comes to integration with related devices - e.g. iPhone with MacBook, iPad, and Apple Watch. Of course, we must also not forget the super-excellent and user-friendly experience of purchasing apps from the App Store, something that I don't get when using Google Play on my former Samsung phone! thumbup.gif

You're talking about an album you created in the "Photos" app in your PC? Yeah, unfortunately you have to use iTunes to delete it, unless the album has been created in the "Album" app itself (delete the unwanted album with the "Edit" feature). hmm.gif

While I'm already used to iTunes, having been a MacBook user since late 2011, I do know that some of you feel it's cumbersome as compared with the straightforward drag-and-drop feature of Android phones. Although I like iTunes because I primary use it as a music player and it's great, especially the sorting of songs in all sorts of categories! rclxms.gif

Well , troublesome is 1 thing but the purpose we all get smartphones these days is not to be pc/laptop dependent . Simple task like checking PDF files , emails , etc .... Gone are those days we need to search for a pc to do it . Yet , certain functions in IOS which rely on iTunes makes it pc/laptop dependent again . No itunes , u cant do this , u cant do that . And it also makes it a "MUST" have app in your pc if you have iphones . For the album case , since there's now a recycle bin to prevent accidental deletion of photos , why cant they make the same thing for album .

Your iPhone name is your hotspot's SSID. To change it, go Settings > General > About.

You're the complete opposite of me, as I prefer to transfer my photos to the PC and delete them on the phone, unless it's something memorable like some long holidays or major company events. thumbup.gif

Where in Selangor are you at, mate? hmm.gif

Most of the big cities here all have Apple Resellers, including previously left-out places like Klang (with four major Resellers today!) and Shah Alam. And other than Machines, you can also check out some of these other renowned names: rclxms.gif
- Mac Studio (Paradigm Mall, Jaya SC)
- Mac City (1 Utama, Klang Parade, AEON Cheras Selatan)
- EpiCenter (eCurve)
- Switch (The Mines, AEON Bukit Raja, KDU DJ Campus Experience Center)
- [i] Store by C-Zone (Digital Mall)
- Cube (Subang Parade)
- Harvey Norman (IPC Shopping Center, Paradigm Mall, Citta Mall, Sunway Pyramid, AEON Bukit Tinggi, Setia City, Ampang Point)

One good one was MyBytes in Tropicana City, and I like buying Apple stuff from them as the staff there are very knowledgeable and offer personalized services (maybe it's because the boss himself is also in the shop most of the time). Too bad they closed down late last year! sad.gif

IMO the current way is more logical. when you want to connect to your phone, of course you look for your phone's name. and the logical, simple place for the name should be the about section. just my opinion.

I'm not sure about iPhones but for most other brands they have both local and AP sets on hand, so you need to be very clear when you tell them what you want.

Also it only makes sense if you are buying cash from directd. If you want to buy via monthly instalments or via credit card, best go to a retailer like machines, SenQ, etc.

Yes, I'm facing this issue even after updating to 8.2 sad.gif I'm using 6+, what about you? I'm suspecting something to do with the memory management as I noticed it happening only when I have a lot of apps running.

you can put up to 5 fingerprints. try to include the other fingers as well.

and FYI, if touch id can't detect your finger, just use the passcode to access your phone

well, i for now just want the phone to work for me, not i have to work the phone. after using android for almost 4 years, that what android makes me feel. i ahve to do a lot of deep settings, install this, install that, root this, unlock that, tweak this, do that.... just to do one thing....

maybe its just me. i happy to be back to ios now, the one thing i dont really like about iphones is the accessories are expensive. haha.

Not recommended. I heard from Apple Authorized Service Centre staff that there all parts available from outside dealers other than Apple Authorized Service Centres are not original. I would take the risk if I were you.

yes. even me i wouldn't take risk. but if terpaksa bro, no choice. unless got money to pay the charge by service centre or buy new set at that time.

service centre= 100% confirm original parts + expensive
3rd party = non ori parts + cheaper a bit then service centre

consumers choice. we able to advice. but the person need to made the decision themselves. and dont blame others in future.

Not to worry, if the thumbprint is not detected, just manually key-in the four digit passcode instead. thumbup.gif

But from my own experience, it's always good to just use the thumbs of your left and right hands, when setting up TouchID. This is because the two fingers are your so-called main ones to activate the home button and what better way than to have TouchID reacting to the prints of both? rclxms.gif

Oh yeah, iOS 8.2 has been so-far-so-good thus far and if you noticed, the most significant thing to appear on the home screen is the "Apple Watch" app. thumbup.gif

Then your fingers are not as sweaty as mine, mate! rclxms.gif

Because even as I'm typing this in my air-conditioned office (going for lunch later), my fingers already feel quite wet and thankfully, touchID still managed to activate. I just need to wait a short while more when I'm sweating at lunch and BOOM, I need to enter my passcode to enter the home screen, haha! laugh.gif

I don't know whether there will be any long-term damage but I usually use my shirt to clean the TouchID button, when in the office, or a hand towel if at home. tongue.gif

yup for the 300++ you can buy a good accessories for the phone.

if I'm not mistaken, for original set, if you send for warranty to fix the phone, usually they will replace it with new set and the new set is a refurbished set.
I did received a replacement unit once after sending it for warranty and straight away sell it to others biggrin.gif

Yup, definitely different. I still use my Nexus 5 sometimes, and it's still a decent phone (aside from the battery which is a bit crap now after a year+ of heavy use). Samsung on the other hand, let's just say I wouldn't use TouchPiss even if you held a gun to my head.

Something wrong with my battery, using 6 plus. Last time can last up to at least 9 hours.

Luckily mac city can accept Singapore unit, proven that must be purchased from Singapore Apple online store. Think of send for warranty now or send it when warranty almost end? (Send when warranty almost end, I can enjoy additional 3 months warranty)

did u install any new apps or update any apps? your usage increases? cos 7 - 9 hours doesnt make much difference to me..

n i noticed your signal coverage not full... you got noticed any increase of the changes of your band? from LTE to 3G vice versa? low signal will also increase battery use...

My only experience was with a Note 3 although I did briefly flirted with an S3 mini and an Ace 2 LTE as backup devices , both of which were useless.

The Note 3 served me well except for mysterious battery drain issues and abnormal heating up few times.

Hmmm, I think mine is due to playing too much Football Manager, as that's one heck of a battery-eater, as well as heavy usage of LTE-based apps like Safari, Google+, WhatsApp, and Facebook! laugh.gif

But I suspect that this issue with the battery has something to do with the new iOS 8.2 as well, as I don't recall my battery falling that fast! sad.gif

Well, I used a Samsung Galaxy Wonder before switching to the S Advance. Didn't really like using Android firmware though, as I had an iPod touch at the same time and preferred the one from Apple! hmm.gif

In the end, I dropped the S Advance due to poor battery life, considering I only used it for making phone calls, sending text messages via WhatsApp, and the occasional Google Maps. As well as preferring a convergent device using iOS, which is why I went for the iPhone 5, back in early 2014! rclxms.gif

I suggest you try resetting the phone without restoring and test for a few days to see if battery usage is really that bad.

I know that some apps Do KEEP RUNNING in the background which consumes a lot of battery juice. One of the culprits is Waze. doh.gif You have to properly stop the routing and then off by properly exiting the app.

Best way to test. Don't play any games for a whole day. Use as normal calls, sms, fb whatsapp etc. you should be able to hit 9 hours.

Make sure you double tap home to invoke multitasking. Clear all apps by swiping up/down.

First, take the serial number and enter to apple website support to see whether it is used set or what. Nowadays, the used set can be set as new by seal the box back. If it says not activated yet, so the iphone is totally new.

Then, make sure the seller is agree to replace for u 1 to 1 exchange if u open the box and found the defect of the iphone.

If u buy from authorized reseller, no need to do the first one.. Goodluck!

Why don't u try to restore first? If u sent for claim warranty, they will restore the phone and inspect. And how do u want to convinced them that the battery is defect? Since the usage and draining of the battery is related.. They can say that u r heavy user. Phone will get hot if u play high resolution game such as asphalts and many more. So, best is try to restore first or downgrade back to 8.1.3 if it still sign by apple.

If you are waiting for a 6S, expect the announcement to be made in September and by the time it arrives in our country it'll be November, earliest. Can you wait that long? If yes, then by all means wait, if not I'd say take the plunge now before GST smile.gif

Now busy looking for an refurbished 5 or 5S while send 6+ for warranty as reseller told me it takes around at least 2 weeks.

I CANT SURVIVE WITHOUT IPHONE

First, take the serial number and enter to apple website support to see whether it is used set or what. Nowadays, the used set can be set as new by seal the box back. If it says not activated yet, so the iphone is totally new.

Then, make sure the seller is agree to replace for u 1 to 1 exchange if u open the box and found the defect of the iphone.

If u buy from authorized reseller, no need to do the first one.. Goodluck!

I have done everything you said, checked iphone is not activate yet. After that activated to check iphone emei is the same as at the box.. Got the SKMM sticker.. It just that he forgot to bring the receipt.. No sure can claim warranty without the receipt..

Btw thank u a lot.. I'm now iphone 6 user smile.gif

If you are waiting for a 6S, expect the announcement to be made in September and by the time it arrives in our country it'll be November, earliest. Can you wait that long? If yes, then by all means wait, if not I'd say take the plunge now before GST smile.gif

Why don't u try to restore first? If u sent for claim warranty, they will restore the phone and inspect. And how do u want to convinced them that the battery is defect? Since the usage and draining of the battery is related.. They can say that u r heavy user. Phone will get hot if u play high resolution game such as asphalts and many more. So, best is try to restore first or downgrade back to 8.1.3 if it still sign by apple.

i encountered the problem when on ios 8.1.3

chat with the apple support, asked me to update to 8.2 [claimed will be better]

then mah upgrade to ios 8.2 [fresh] downloaded 2.2GB ipsw then restore through itunes, set up as new.

there is no game at all in my phone and i barely on 3G, wifi mostly but the battery can last max 7 hours, encountered 3 times freezes today mad.gif

my iphone 5 also not so problematic as this ip6 plus cry.gif

*anyone encountered Freezes in iphone 6 +? shocking.gif

hopefully ip6+ as a testing product for Apple venture into phablet will be enhanced/better off for the coming new phablet model, probably 6s+.

Yup, same here. But if I do get the MBPr then I'll most probably return the company laptop and tell my boss I choose to BYOD to work - hopefully he'll approve!

I've had issues previously with u Mobile and their customer service (or lack thereof) drove me up the wall. I'm definitely never going back no matter how attractive their packages are. And I'll have to admit they are pretty attractive. Anyways, welcome to the club and head to the iPhones Accessories thread to get some recommendations on SP. Cheers!

Gotta agree with that. The general concensus is that the experience on the iPhone 6 is smoother than that on the 6 Plus. Plenty of room for improvement in the phablet department, surely.

In terms of customer service I can agree with you because even I know more about the plans than their staff laugh.gif

And it's because I'm already paying rm50 a month to them for 3GB data so might as well pay extra to RM60 and get phone subsidised by about rm1k compared to mac city.

cheers!

but i think the amount you're paying is well worth it considering you do not need to bring a bulky DSLR and still able to achieve some basic effects icon_idea.gif

instead buy from store for 2949, sign idigi50 and get 64 gb for only 2500. instant save 449.

Hello, just wanna ask all the i6+ users about their battery life. My i6+ can only get around 6 hours of usage time and 7 hours max, is that normal? Mostly i use my phone for whatsapp, check my mail and safari browsing. Standby time is great,my battery only drop 1-2% for hours. I chose the 6 plus because of the good battery review but the battery life is very disappointing for me. Or maybe i just have too high expectation on the iphone. Hope to hear from the other i6+ users rclxms.gif

Many people have their concerns about the battery life of the iPhone 6+. Based on what I'd read, not all users experience that. It make sense, only those who had problems will write their concern here.
Sometimes bad battery life is because of the update.

guys if not mind the digi coverage, i think digi idigi50 offer 1 of the cheapest and the contract is only 1 year. i already mnp 1 of my line to digi as my area currently all 3 big telco also got lte. so i just pick the cheapest 1. some more digi still maintain the old price.

instead buy from store for 2949, sign idigi50 and get 64 gb for only 2500. instant save 449.

I signed with DiGi for iPhone 4 and it was a terrible experience - coverage was really poor and their customer service was not good. If your area has good coverage then I'd agree that their package is probably more value for money. Not sure if u Mobile is the cheapest now but that's another telco I had a bad experience with and would avoid.

I do have a colleague who MNP over to DiGi and complained he felt cheated that their data allocation was split between true Internet browsing and some DiGi apps thing which he wasn't happy about.

Hello, just wanna ask all the i6+ users about their battery life. My i6+ can only get around 6 hours of usage time and 7 hours max, is that normal? Mostly i use my phone for whatsapp, check my mail and safari browsing. Standby time is great,my battery only drop 1-2% for hours. I chose the 6 plus because of the good battery review but the battery life is very disappointing for me. Or maybe i just have too high expectation on the iphone. Hope to hear from the other i6+ users  rclxms.gif

I think it's not abnormal. Sometimes I get 9 or 10 hours and other days I get 7 hours or so. There are other factors besides usage, i.e. Signal strength, frequency of using apps with location services, etc. Have you updated to 8.2?

Not sure what is wrong with my phone, been trying to get the most out of the battery turned off location service and background refresh and still on 6-7 hours battery life. Yes it is running on 8.2 now. Gonna restore as new and hopefully battery can last longer, if not i guess i have to bring it to the service center sad.gif

OMG.. I accidentally dropped my nail clipper on my iPhone 6 and it "nailed" my screen. Now it is cracked. What should I do and where should I seek for screen replacement?

How much is it? Could anybody tell me please? Thanks.

I dont think you can claim warranty because of self accident but can try your luck and ask the service center. If im not wrong screen replacement at authorized service center is around 1k+. Outside repairers will be cheaper but not sure the screen they use is ori or not and it will void your warranty.

I remember some of my frustrations using DiGi - when there was a thunderstorm, the line would be very poor. Sometimes there will be like no data service out of the blue for one or two hours. I'd keep restarting my phone and in the end I'd call them and they would confirm that there is a technical issue. The list continues. And back then I signed a 2 year contract with them so it was a painful 2 years biggrin.gif Judging by your comments I'm pretty sure they would have improved by now.

Screen no warranty oh.. unless u can prove that the crack was from inside out. No service centre in Malaysia offering original parts for iPhone ... not even the authorised service centre of Apple as they are not allowed to replace any parts of the phone. They can only format your phone and if they open, they can only open to check whether the phone has been tampered before or not.

actually its not as fragile as u think ... the reason why people thought its more fragile is because of the curved edges which also made from glass. Previous iPhones only the screen is glass where side is metal. now all the edges are also made from glass hence it become more fragile. and even if you use a glass sp, if the edges not protected, it will still breaks. We got customer who broke his actual screen instead of his glass sp. initially he thought it was the SP, but upon removing it, it was actually the screen that cracked.

I see, then need to find edge to edge tempered glass and better protecting phone case.

I've used ip4, ip5, ip5s before and none of my old phones have cracked screen.

yup.. the previous generation not easy to break as the edges are made of unibody aluminium. but if you notice, most of them are dent... if might be a sign of drop or bang on the wall... if it happens to ip6/6+, then probably it cracked already.

My advise is, if you are not going to use a Full screen glass protector that cover even the curved edges for your ip6/6+, then make sure u use a case that is able to absorb impact on the edges..

When I don't play games on my phone or use the Garmin or Waze app, then I also charge my phone on alternate days. If I notice that it has 60% charge or more at night, then I know it'll be able to get me through the next day with light to moderate usage. I use data the moment I step out of home but switch on WiFi at night when I'm home.

For me personally, a phone that can get you through the day without having to look for a wall plug or a powerbank is good enough, there really is no need to try and set a record for the amount of juice you can squeeze out of the phone on a single charge. You may end up being so conscious about battery consumption that you forget to enjoy your phone in the first place. Where's the fun in that? biggrin.gif

Hahaha totally agree with you on that bro, mine can last around 1.5 days... Office use wifi, at home wifi also, other times LTE... If for the point of squeezing the battery until 2-3 days, I guess nothing much is done on the phone... Kinda defeats the purpose of having such a nice piece of gadget..

I restored my phone as new and the battery is still not that long lasting. I think one of the reason why the battery go down so fast is because of the signal coverage. More coverage less battery usage, most of the time i get only 1-2 bar at my area so maybe the signal is causing the battery problem.

This is definitely the main reason for battery draining problem. My friends from Germany said that their iphone 6 battery drain faster in Malaysia, i think the reason is because we got poor telco signal

Just test it for one day to see if battery drain persist. After that you can restore if everything is ok. Usually, if battery usage returns to normal after a hard reset means there is a particular app which is causing battery leak. Delete that app and you are good to go. If battery drain still persist after reset without restore means its your battery that is problematic so you can send for RMA.

When you are in areas with low network frequency, your phone tends to keep searching for stronger signals and that will cause battery to drain quicker than normal.

that's why it's better to buy now, rather than waiting for GST to kick in. And next iphone will have the same design with minor change on spec and more expensive price tag.
