Will they give extra phone to use when sending phone for warranty? Wife don't have spare phone

Nope, they wont give extra phone
So better prepare a spare phone when sending for warranty claims

There are some iPhone 6 64GB going for about RM2600 now which I believe should be about 1k cheaper than the 6s. I wonder if it's still worth it especially considering the bump from 1GB to 2GB of RAM in the 6s. Such dilemma. hmm.gif
*
1GB RAM on the iPhone shouldnt have any problems actually. Of cos 2GB RAM will future proof your iphone.
See whether you are willing to part with that RM1k or not brows.gif

Hi guys... My ip6 screen pecah (crack) what shud i do?..
Replace with oem screen which cost me rm680 and warranty will void or shud i replace with digi?.. Did they do this kind of servis?.. Fyi my phone still under warranty from digi... Any advise?.. Pls help...
*
If bring to outside repairman, it will void warranty and you might not know whether in the future u are "lucky enough" that another part spoil (eg. home button)

So might as well just go to Digi and top up to get a refurbished set from them and your warranty is still valid

Just got myself an iPhone 6S+ from Digi. It's solid but damn it's heavy. Coming from Android , there's a learning curve to understand everything but I like it so far. biggrin.gif
*
Ya the ip6s+ is heavier compared to the ip6+. After the bendgate fiasco they had to change the material to a tougher type.

IOS honestly speaking nthg much to learn unlike Android, as it is alot more user friendly compared to Android

hi guys,
which one should choose?
1. refurbished ip6 (cheapest)
2. used ip6 (almost same price as refurbished one)
3. import set ip6 (cheaper than my set)
4. my set ip6 (highest price)

im thinking of buying refurbished ip6 set since it is the cheapest.
any precaution should i keep in mind before buying refurbished ip6?
*
1. Refurbished ip6 set should be OK if you are getting it from Apple Authorised Resellers / reputable resellers. Might not know what/which part they change inside the phone (might have replaced 3rd party / non original parts in the phone).
2. Used ip6 is OK. Just make sure you didnt buy a stolen iphone or water dropped iphone and also check whether it is local set or import set for warranty claim purposes.
3. Import ip6 just need to worry about warranty claiming, unless you dont bother about warranty
4. MY set is the best option, but also the most expensive option. IMO best is to buy from Apple Online Malaysia, it is the most expensive option of all, but will give you peace of mind in terms of warranty claiming.

thanks for you advice bro. really appreciate it.

1. There are so many refurbished ip6 set in the market right now. can't tell which one is good which one is not. if they have replaced the parts to 3rd party (non original), how would it really affect the performance of the phone?
2. For used set, there is also possibility that they have change parts to the non original ones.
btw, do you know any reputable resellers that sell refurbished ip6?
*
Used sets are less likely to replace parts (unless the previous owner broke the screen before)
Refurbished set confirm part replace d, but dunno whether replace with original part or 3rd party. So if possible, get the refurbished sets which are repaired directly from Apple themselves. Dun ask me how to check as i also dunno sweat.gif

Stock adaptor only provide 1A, while iphone 6plus can take more than that. 3rd party adaptors that can provide 2A will charge the iphone 6 plus faster

From an iPhone 6+ user. unless you are getting some wide gaps in prices. Go for iPhone 6s+. It's not just because of the features of 3D touch, faster touchID.

It's the larger memory (and speed) that is very important. Despite iOS getting updated, can feel the lagginess and slowness issue for iPhone 6+.

The "iPhone smoothness" feel just isn't there. It's pretty much from day one.

For non-plus iPhone, it's okay to take S or non S versions.
*
Quite true as the ip6+ only running on 1gb ram for a 5.5 inch screen.

If not lagging now, it will start to lag in future updates. The ip6s+ has 2gb ram, so quite future proof for future updates

Not future proofing also. now itself a bit laggy (not the iPhone smoothness) and loading memory intensive website, Safari/Chrome browser will crash. (remedy is reload again, or start closing the other apps via multitask window which I think system does it when it's reloading, I'm probably doing it manually).

Just want to share my personal experience, it's not widely mentioned by others. I seen couple of forumers mention slowness before and some moved to ip6s+.
*
Oh you mean the ip6s+ also facing lag issues?

We call this halo effect in note 5. The edge of the tempered glass is not sticking because of the screen design. That place will become full of dust later.

No, that is not halo effect. That is the quality of the tempered glass. Halo effect will look different nod.gif

I normally prefer to go through the trouble of plugging in iTunes to update the software, as i noticed OTA updates sometimes have bugs/problems

Hi guys, I bought ip6 last time via apple.com, and now warranty no more liao.

Recently I dropped my ip6 and my battery life start to become very cacat. Suddenly will big drop to 7% (red), then when plug in and charge, it will quickly turn into 30% (green).

I suspect after I drop my ip6, the wiring or the battery got affected.

Anyway, anyone know if I go to Machines can change ip6 battery? If yes, how much would the cost be?

Thanks in advance smile.gif

Since no more warranty, can opt to go to 3rd party service repairman Wimpykid
