Folks,

Wanna ask whether the 3D Touch is a hardware or it is includes in iOS 9 (where older devices will get it?)
*

it is hardware, you must own 6S to use 3D touch and ofcourse iOS 9 to use the 3D touch functionality

eventually all 6S and 6S plus ship with iOS 9

Hi

Does anyone know if I can buy Iphone from Singapore or US and use it in Malaysia?

Any input would be great.
*
better buy SG set, because for past generation 4/4S/5/5S/6 SG set all can use in Malaysia, same GSM/LTE band
this time should be same as well

So basically, even with the most basic data plan, you're still looking at something in the MYR$250/month zone for an iPhone 6s? But you can exchange for a new iPhone in 12 months time while continuing the same payment structure after that, or will they add some extra bullshit costs?
*
yeah lol, with Maxis keep promoting MaxisONE plan

QUOTE(attw @ Sep 12 2015, 10:17 AM)
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.
*
yours make sense, i dont think those sign up for zerolution have to pay phone balance after 12 months if they want upgrade phone because we have to return old device, Maxis eventually end up your old device send for refurbished or send it as second hand, just like the let us trade in old phone to get new one

so the monthly payment should be your selection of phone type zerolution + MaxisONE plan

the insurance cover "attended theft", if you leave your phone unattended and let people pick up... it might not cover

Hey guys, jz wondering i have made purchase from spore for the iphones... they put the date delivery 25.09.2015... jz wanna ask all those experience ppl, when they mention 25/09, does it mean we can receive the phone on that day or meaning they start sending out the phones on that day??

thanks alot sifus...
*
25/09 should be the date start process and shipping

SG have a warehouse if not mistaken, SG Apple Online Store may get stock directly from SG warehouse instead of coming from China, then this could make the whole shipment process faster

p/s: i have experience with SG Apple Online store when buying iPhone 4, the courier service do send parcel until late 9/10pm biggrin.gif unlike Malaysia, after 5/6pm, sorry tomorrow

good news. due to eocnomic no good, suspect the demand of iphone will drop. if apple over produced and found out sales not good in first batch countries, meaning they might lower down the price when they starting to sell in secord batch countries.
*
unlikely price drop just hope wont increase too much

Apple rarely tolerate in price...

you see Samsung adjusted price drop for S6 and Note 5 but i dont think Apple will follow eventhough sales drop

they are alot people willing to pay just because

the RRP of iDevice is quite firm unlike android phone 1-2 months price drop, few more months drop further because the dealer got a good profit margin

but Apple manage well in controlling the price

there is no news yet from any telcos. if it happens by next 2 weeks, very good chance it will be in oct.
besides, "S" generation production mostly stabilized.
*
yes lol, "S" tend to be more mature product from iPhone

e.g.:
iPhone 5, scuff issue, 5S resolve it
iPhone 4, antenna issue, 4S resolve it

looks like should buy "S" generation instead of no "S" biggrin.gif

Pick this up from iphone 6s thread at hardwarezone.sg
Was not aware there were 2 different makes of the chipset

Guys, if you all interested, you can check your iPhone 6s or 6s plus and see whether your A9 CPU is made by TSMC 16nm chip or Samsung 14nm chip by install this app.

My Gold 64GB iPhone 6s Plus is using Samsung 14nm chip.

Link: http://demo.hiraku.tw/CPUIdentifier/

Do you guys know that iPhone 6s or 6s+ A9 processors have 2 diff size due to manufacturer different.. SAMSUNG one is said to be 10% smaller and more energy efficient than TMSC... h http://9to5mac.com/2015/09/28/a9-samsung-tsmc-speed/

wow, great info... Apple should have response to this soon or later

I heard Singapore dealers have a hard time disposing 16gb stocks and have to resort to giving discounts to get rid of them. Wonder why Apple still keep making them.
*
so simple

if they stop produce 16GB, and go for 32/64/128, many will buy 32GB, so their 64 will be less and less people buying biggrin.gif

marketing strategy i believe, making some people go for 64GB

I meant why didnt they just start of with 64gb.

lol, Apple can do no wrong as you stated

64Gb as cheapest model unlikely, if so, all other higher capacity model hard to sell d

they have to make you struggle in choosing 16 and 64...

remember Apple can do no wrong... i saw you repeated it few times already here biggrin.gif

Nope. Machines also sends back the faulty units to Apple. Only difference Like mentioned, only iphones bought online from Apple Store enjoys a 14 day return policy. If you buy from Apple resellers, it would be up to the reseller if they want to give you a new set or wait for a seed unit from Apple.
*
thats true, normally apple reseller wont give you new one

Switch even request you pay first before unboxing... claimed that if got minor complain not completely defect like unable to power on, will have to proceeed warranty claim...

The Samsung A9 chip has hot temp issue that cause battery drain faster than TSMC A9 chip. Hopefully malaysia get TSMC A9 Chip iphone 6s.

if SG set is getting TMSC mostly, then Malaysia likely to follow... at least for Apple Online Store, it will be ship from SG warehouse, sometime China, but my past 3 years experience with Apple Online Store Malaysia is shipped from SG, but my iPad Air from China

just my 2 cents biggrin.gif
