Are you buying from Apple Online, or one of the resellers here?

My plan is to get from Apple online. If I have to go to a mall (aka pyramid), I'd rather get from telco.

if order from apple store tomorrow morning, when will we receive the phone?

It depends on the eta given on the website. Previous experience 2-3 days or could go to 2-3 weeks. Prefer to order past midnight although not really a rush for me. smile.gif

OK thanks. concerning the payment, they will not charge your cc until they ship right?

still deciding which to get. thinking of getting the 64gb 6s but also considering the 16gb 6s plus.

Yes, Apple Store charged when shipped out. But first time enter credit card details, I got sms saying they charged usd $1 (more for verification purpose) but won't be billed (check credit card statement, etc).

64gb much better than 16gb. But then again, my usage for storage still can cater to 16gb.

Presently my storage used is at 15.1GB, so if I rajin transfer my photos/videos to my PC probably I can get by with 16GB as well. Was really hoping Apple would do us a solid by having 32GB as an entry level this round but it's not to be sad.gif
*
Haha, ok. I'm still opting the 64gb for future proof. So far quite happy with this storage size.

So, what are the chances for me to get the Iphone 6s via Machine/MacCity if I'm not planning to queue very early in the morning tomorrow? Or should I just order it online for better chance?
*
If you want the phone in your hands tomorrow, go to the brick n mortar (physical) stores. Chances are ppl will queue for it also. If you can wait, just buy online.

Assuming most people would get a 64GB phone, then going to Machines and Mac City for a 6S means paying RM3,699 outright without telco subsidies. If you're going for a 6S Plus, it means paying RM4,199 outright. Somehow I don't think the queue will be as bad as last year.
*
I'm quite tempted to queue at the telco as well. Just to see if I can get the subsidized price for the 64gb. My contract ends mid-Jan though.

You can, as long as there is less than 4 months between now and your contract end date, you can re-contract with them with a new device. Mine is mid Jan too, and I called them last night to ask smile.gif

Ok, good to know. Let me survey over the weekend. I quite made up my mind to order from Apple Online Store. biggrin.gif

Hehe, ya, thought I was gonna skip too, but the 2GB RAM is really a compelling reason to future proof our phone (and at the rate Apple was going I probably wouldn't be able to afford an iPhone 7). So I decided to experiment and put my phone on sale and told myself if I could get a buyer at my asking price without negotiations, then I would upgrade.

Just sold off the phone a couple of hours ago smile.gif

Besides, due to our timing of buying the phone this round (before Apple's price hike and GST), this was the first time I actually sold off a used phone and made a profit. Strange, but nice biggrin.gif
*
Lol, ok. Mind to pm me how much you sold your i6?

Lol. I thought the same too. But seems like less frenzy in buying this year compared to previous iPhone launches, imo.

Hi, my status has changed from Processing items to Preparing for shipment. So, we are expecting either tomorrow or latest by Saturday.

By the way, does DHL deliver at night?
*
I think expect on Monday or Tuesday due to custom clearance. Saturday customs is quite slow.

Yes, Dhl delivers late (finishing up the deliveries) esp during the iPhone season. Same with ups. I've encountered both before.

Just collected my 6s from maxis pyramid. 128 for plus all colors sold out for walk in. For 6s rose gold 128 sold out all others available but limited. 16 gb in abundance lol
*
So looks like 128GB is the most popular choice? How about the 64GB?

Available but limited. Can still go and queue, when I walked out after collecting 45 mins ago walk in queue only like 5 people? The Apple Store there also the queue doesn't look long, like maybe 10?
*
Ok, most likely limited units. I would think the 64GB is more popular. But in general, prices have gone up drastically. I'm not surprised if less buyers now.
