I see... ok thanks 

Uhh don't think that's how it works man haha. First, there's only a handful of Android devices that are more than RM2600, can count actually (Note 5, S6 Edge/+, can't  remember the rest that are more than RM2600). If it is more than 20, then i'll retract this statement. As for the depreciation, it clearly did not depreciate that fast. Look at the Note 3 and 4 when it came out. Even after a few months out it's still expensive. A new Note 4 now is still around RM1900-RM2000 which is clearly a RM300-RM400 depreciation after a year. Second hand also it still depreciate at a slow rate. If not, what you're saying now is i can buy a Sony Z3 at RM600 (first year RM1000 off, over a year another half more). You can search how much a Sony Z3 cost now which would clearly indicate that it depreciated at a slow rate (1800 after a year coming from RM2200).

What you may be referring to is the S6 Edge 32gb which costs RM3099. The market price for it now is RM2300-2400. In this case, then yes; it's the only phone for now that depreciated at a rapid pace. Maybe because the price was too high leading to low demand and ultimately low market value. So far this is the only Android phone that fits the description of a fast depreciating Android phone. As for the rest, i don't see any that faced a similar fate like the S6 Edge.

And we don't need to downplay Android as much; they've come a long way with a bunch of features and had the hold-for-options feature way before this 3D Touch thingy. Their features may not be flawless (laggy, sometimes not working, crash) but they still managed to realize the concept, which is a start.

Hi guys,

I'm heading over to Singapore on the 24th this month for holiday, and so happens the phone is available the next day.  I'm staying over at Marina Bay Sands, can anyone here with experience of buying the iPhone from Singapore provide me with some advice on the below?

1. Buy from Apple Online Store or can get from their premium re-seller like EpiCenter?
2. If buy from Apple Online Store, cannot claim back the GST right?
3. If order from Apple Online Store, the address I should put hotel name and send to reception?

Thanks in advance!!

Firstly, how many days do you plan to stay in Singapore? Buying online during launch week will entail a long wait time, usually 2 week bare minimum.

1. Your best bet to get it on launch day is to go line up at a physical Apple store or premium re-seller.
2. AFAIK, if you're leaving SG via the causeway (ie, you're traveling by car or bus) - Cannot - https://www.iras.gov.sg/IRASHome/uploadedFi...20on%20eTRS.pdf (Q7). Some stores will sometimes waive the GST if you buy with a foreign credit card, but those are usually small private businesses and not chain stores). If buying from online store, confirm cannot.
3. You need to check with your hotel. Different hotels have different policies. A hotel with such high traffic like MBS, I'm doubtful unless you're a VIP guest.

wat tokok u...worth upgrade la.. who say not worth?

4k recording
2gb ram
12mp
5mp front camera
3d touch
7000 series aluminum
no bend maybe? 

   

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.

any news if iphone6s will get OIS also?

This is generally true. But I have a suspicion it's more of a Samsung problem than an Android one...

these are all very minimal incremental upgrades. nothing revolutionary like the iPhone 4. but many are still drinking the Apple Kool aid. I'm sticking with my i6plus.
nope. Only for 6S Plus. refer to Apple website.

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.

me too Im still sticking with i6plus..until iphone 7+ come out. Im always a impulse buyer but I realize at the end of the day i only use for checking social, messaging apps and casual game.
