just choose T-mobile if you want SIM free and unlocked set (if not mistaken, it'll ship with a T-mobile SIM card with no SIM ejector, just use something to remove the SIM card and put your own one in).

FYI this time around it's easier to service imported iPhones. I talked with a rep at VR Tech (Megan Avenue 2, KL) and he said they can only service iPhone models that are sold in Malaysia/Singapore.

For iPhone 6/6+, that meant the Sprint model.

For iPhone 6s/6s+, that means the Verizon/T-Mobile/Sprint model. AT&T model is different, and will not be serviceable in Malaysia.

However, this time around Apple requires US carrier account for all ONLINE iPhone orders (even when paid in full), so cannot do like last year and order it to ship to a US address. If you want to buy it and take it overseas, you'll have to buy in-store.

So, it's definitely easier to get it from AU/HK/SG, even they can be up to RM 1000 more expensive due to exchange rates.

USA still the cheapest..between Singapore and Malaysia, might as well wait for malaysia

directly imported from US thats why cheaper. i did it because i wanted the verizon model.
now its a pain ‘cause warranty claim is troublesome - dealing with apple care now.

this year the 128 GB 6s+ is around RM 500 cheaper (if we're going by RM 4700 RRP)

and another good thing is the unlocked gsm model they sell in the US = the model sold in asia.
so warranty will have no issue claiming (according to vr tech, aasp in megan avenue 2 KL).

last year, the us gsm model != asia model - you'd have to get Sprint version.
