QUOTE(XeactorZ @ Sep 12 2015, 01:17 AM) and RM 30 zerolution upgrade fee right ? yeah so let's take example on Samsung Galaxy A8, website is HEREtake a look on most bottom, which pay for phone (RM 62*24) + maxisone plan (RM 98) + zerolution upgrade (RM 30) ??? Ya, the Zerolution fee enables you to upgrade the phone after a year. I think you'll pay the new device price once you upgrade. For me the turn off is that the device price instalment is base on RRP and not subsidized unlike a regular contract. |

QUOTE(dino89 @ Sep 12 2015, 09:59 AM) If upgrade device after 1 year, you have to pay the balance of your old device (RRP/24 * Balance months) Then you have be paying the new device price monthly instalments instead Actually if you are enrolled into the Zerolution program and pay the Zerolution Upgrade fee, you don't need to pay the balance of your device. Just need to return it to change to a different phone. How many months do I need to pay for Maxis Zerolution? You will need to pay the Zerolution monthly fee for at least 12 months. After completing 12 monthly payments of Zerolution monthly fee, you can upgrade to a new phone and the remaining 12 months monthly payments will be waived. The Zerolution monthly fee will be charged into your postpaid bill until you upgrade. Therefore, if you upgrade to a new phone at month 14, you will have paid Zerolution monthly fee for 14 months. If you are opt not to enroll into the early upgrade program, your Zerolution monthly fee will be lower and you will need to complete 24 monthly payments of that monthly fee. |

QUOTE(ftan @ Sep 12 2015, 09:04 PM) Agreed. That is my opinion too. Lol. I don't mind getting rose pink, errr I mean rose gold. I got bored with the silver and space grey color. Before i6s was announced, I was already planning to get the gold color for my next iPhone purchase. I took a gold 6 Plus and Apple has now discontinued the gold color, so I now have a limited edition phone. Couldn't be happier  |

QUOTE(moosiepants @ Sep 13 2015, 01:54 AM) I will be returning to KL 25th September for a short trip. Just doing a favour here as I'm getting one for myself. Let me know if you'd like me to get one for you. I will be touching down at around 10pm and we can meet up after. You'll need to pay me in Australian dollar as the RM is no good for me. Just pay me for the price you see on apple.com/au Good service  The RM is no good to many people all over the world now, ha ha. |

QUOTE(harmeet15 @ Sep 14 2015, 11:03 AM) I'm just gonna give an example here. S4, launched at RM2199. quick search in GS showing a range of RM500-700. the iPhone 5, 5S are still commanding RM1k-RM1.5K. heck, even the 4S is priced above the S4. i am not downplaying Android here. I appreciate what they do and have no qualms using their phone. i am merely talking about resale value here to fuel new gen purchases. nothing more. This is generally true. But I have a suspicion it's more of a Samsung problem than an Android one... |

Looking at the minimal changes in dimensions, is it safe to assume the current iPhone 6 Plus cases will fit the iPhone 6S Plus? |

QUOTE(1likegadg3t @ Sep 14 2015, 04:03 PM) I think its also the way people market it and sell..those second hand are the people who command the price. Its either they want to sell it fast so they need to low the price. Coz if you going to buy in the shop, the price still the same or drop a little bit until the new model come out. Ya, the premium outlets don't drop the price that much, but folks like Direct D sells below RRP even during launch sometimes |

QUOTE(Connect2USales @ Sep 15 2015, 11:08 AM) I tested note 5 demo unit on day 1 and its smooth like butter. But after 2 weeks as a demo set, i did noticed slight lag. But on normal usage, you probably wont realised it yet. I purposely test on it, therefore the feeling is there. I think based on a normal day to day use, it probably last for 1.5 to 2 years before the lag become unbearable. It's a good improvement for android or samsung in particular. But my main phone will still be iPhone.. its more simple to use as a daily driver A mobile device that has the same amount of RAM as my MacBook Air lags... Hmmm... that would be interesting  |

QUOTE(harmeet15 @ Sep 15 2015, 11:47 AM) buying a phone is also dependable on which ecosystem u r most invested in. like me for example, i have been using the iPhone since the first original. and then came the app store where i had bought hundreds of apps. then along the same time had got the macbook pro and then later the iPad n then the apple tv n most recently the apple watch. so my ecosystem is all connected. the seamless experience between my devices will not be mirrored by any other platform as per my satisfaction. sure, i do use android as a second phone, n they have been great too but i can't see myself making it my main driver. android phones are like ur fling/affair, u like hanging out with them n all but u always return home to ur own people.  Same here, bro. Despite its shortcomings, iOS 8 continuity and handoff features were game changers for me. While I don't see myself as a die-hard iFag or whatever you may call it, it's hard to imagine myself using an Android phone as a main device. Sigh, the real pain now is the hole that will burn in my wallet everytime an upgrade comes along.... Arrrghhh... |

QUOTE(ftan @ Sep 15 2015, 01:14 PM) You got the MBA? Great. I thought you were undecided. Can't imagine iPhones cost more than laptops now. Giving me second thoughts if the price goes up to 4k above. Yup, Harvey Norman had a clearance previously for the previous gen 13" MacBook Air 256GB so I acted on impulse and got it Oh, it was also to use my Maybank points before they increased from 250 pts for RM1 to 400 pts for RM1  |

Darn, after watching the video I went from 20% likely to upgrade to 45%... Poison... Ha ha ha.... |

QUOTE(deepan84 @ Sep 17 2015, 12:25 PM) i'm gonna use the line anyway, mightself just buy it with a phone right. yup i saved 1.3k when i purchased my ip6+ early this year..coupled with 300 cash back, total saving was 1.6k. so my phone cost only 1.6k for the 64gb 6plus. damn worth it. You'd be making a handsome profit if you do decide to sell and upgrade |

QUOTE(TOMEI-R @ Sep 17 2015, 12:00 PM) Some people die die want to buy from Telcos because can save a bit with contract.  The savings can be quite substantial actually. I wouldn't pay over 3k outright for a phone, and for me, the commitment fee is largely paid by company so it's a no-brainer. |
