Hi

I'm looking for a phone to replace my trusty iPhone 4, seriously, if its still supported by apple and newer apps can be installed, I wouldn't mind using the ip4 for another 2`3 years.

So I did some extensive homework on what should I replace it with....a 5S? a 6S? a Note 5? a Z5? And so I was playing with wife and colics android, and really dint like it. I'm really not used to it, simple things also seems tough to me.

Now I'm thinking of a 6S 64GB. its RM3699. I prefer to buy onsite, so even though Online might cost a few hundred lesser, I still buy at the store. I checked other options like Maxis, Celcom, Digi and the packages are just too much. I only use about Max 1.2GB data a month. The rest I use Wifi at home.

But I check U mobile and seems like it they have what I wanted, the i40 package. I went to check out at U Mobile store since cant understand the webby so much.

But after reading the Umobile pamphlet, a iphone6S Plus 64Gb cost only RM3572 (cash) with the i40 contract. And Since I'm using Hotlink, I dun mind using my old number to port to the Umobile. Monthly also I only need to pay bout RM31.50 (instead of 40 since there is an upfront payment).

So what is the advantages and disadvantages buying from Umobile?
Instead of getting a 6S 64Gb from Apple store, I can get a iPhone 6S plus 64Gb at lesser price from Umobile.

Thanks in advance

(And I did check the Umobile thread created but seems like too slow moving)

ohh...thats what the salesgirl told me about terminating the line, anytime can terminate, but she didnt say about the upfront and penalty


Thats a nice way of putting it

But iphone6S plus 64gb with Umobile is RM3,572, at Applestore is RM4,199. So its quite a big difference

I will check with my colic who are using Umobile how is it at the workplace, at home not so worried as using Wifi.

But as you say, coverage is always top priority

Anyway, I'll check out digi too, seems like they also got a good deal with the RM50 monthly data (price of devise is RM3,610), need to go to a digi store to find out more, websites dun tell all

thx

Looks like its a good option to go to Digi, it also has an offer. Most of my friends and colics using Umobile specifically to surf internet and most are using those 2 handphones. Some area that they cannot connect to digi, maxis, they will use Umobile. So actually its like a backup. I'm not interested in backup networks, so I will go for Digi package, the iplan50 is just right for me.


Actually , i set to buy iphone6S 64gb for RM3699, but I see telcos offering ip6S plus for same price
