how to check the iphone chipset bro ? Hope Malaysia batch is TSMC chip.

For all those hoping for one chip or another,

QUOTE
Ars Technica has now conducted controlled battery life tests on two iPhone 6s models, one with a TSMC chip and one with a Samsung chip, and its findings line up with Apple's statement. The site used two AT&T models, both with SIM cards removed and screen brightness set at the exact same level.

So there are definitely circumstances under which the TSMC phone will last longer than the Samsung phone, but it's not a universal problem. A Samsung chip that's mostly idling or even one under modest CPU and GPU load, though, is going to behave in just about the same way as a TSMC chip. And the kinds of CPU-intensive work that the Samsung chip seems to struggle with just aren't that common on smartphones. Most of the time, iPhone 6S battery life should be similar no matter which chip your phone is using.
In real world testing, there is no heaven and earth like difference here.
Just minor/slight differences.
So, as said before here and everywhere else, it really doesn't matter which chip you get because,
a. there is no way of predicting which you gonna get, and
b. if you do get the undesired chip, there is nothing much you can do about it.

Even 1% also cannot.

Comprehensive photography test shows the iPhone 6s camera isn’t the world’s best

http://pocketnow.com/2015/10/14/iphone-6s-...st-not-the-best

Whatever the reviews are, personally I feel it is still good enough for me. My experience with the previous ip6+ was good though I must admit I do find the Note4 was slightly more superior vs it
*
The note4 does offer a superior camera than the iPhones, but i found it very annoying having to wait for the processing circle or the having to not move after clicking the capture button to avoid motion blur.
I do believe iPhone's camera is not industry leading or the best, but it works well for me too. smile.gif

bad economy, high price and the fact that is internal changes only could be factors for this.

anyone has any idea if its possible to cancel an order that is under the status "preparing for shipment"?

tried calling apple but they are not working on weekends, im afraid i might be late if i try tomorrow and they have already deliver my item!
*
you can't cancel the order once it has shipped.
once delivered, there will be an option to request a return.
so you can opt to do that.
but, there is a 15 or 20% restocking fee they charge for iPads and iPhones.
its in the fine prints and i did not know that until recently. sweat.gif

Guys..

1. 3D Touch
I'm wondering how's the 3D Touch sensitivity without glass protector. Is there any difference in terms of 3D Touch sensitivity with / without tempered glass? Because I try to change the sensitivity in the accessibility setting but I don't think I can feel any difference from light to firm.

2. Mfi cable.
Regarding the cable, any good cable with mfi certified? Pls recommend any good seller / product and where can I get it. Remax cable no longer work for my 6s 😭
*
3D touch works fine with glass SP.
but i feel same as you. no difference in any setting.
so i leave it in medium.

Moshi cable have served me well since my iPhone 5 days.
Metal heading at both ends.
Tried many cables but none come close to this.

Finally a Fix for heavy Facebook users.

Facebook Implements Fix for iOS App Battery Draining Issues

QUOTE

Facebook's newest iOS update, out today, fixes a major battery draining bug that some Facebook users have been experiencing in recent weeks. Affected users were seeing large amounts of battery drain on their iPhones due to Facebook running in the background, something that happened even when background app refresh was toggled off in the Settings app.

While the latest Facebook app release notes don't include a reference to the issue, Facebook engineering manager Ari Grant wrote a post (via TechCrunch) explaining the issues behind the battery drain and what Facebook has done to fix it. According to Grant, there were several factors that contributed to the problem, including a "CPU spin" in the network code and silent background audio sessions that kept the app awake even when it wasn't open.

"The first issue we found was a "CPU spin" in our network code. A CPU spin is like a child in a car asking, "Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?"with the question not resulting in any progress to reaching the destination. This repeated processing causes our app to use more battery than intended. The version released today has some improvements that should start making this better.

The second issue is with how we manage audio sessions. If you leave the Facebook app after watching a video, the audio session sometimes stays open as if the app was playing audio silently. This is similar to when you close a music app and want to keep listening to the music while you do other things, except in this case it was unintentional and nothing kept playing. The app isn't actually doing anything while awake in the background, but it does use more battery simply by being awake. Our fixes will solve this audio issue and remove background audio completely."
