In the meantime, Apple has quietly increased prices of the MacBooks.. now costs about RM1,000 more per model... E.g. 12" Macbook was RM4,769 now RM 5,899... ouch...
*
Heartache looking at the new price...A base model for 15" is 8999... Wth. That was 5.6k 1.5 years back.. Crazy how the prices increase like that.

Ya man, Apple products are becoming unaffordable to the middle class now. Even if you could afford one, it makes no sense...

But to be fair, that's mainly due to our weakening currency. You don't see that with Singapore prices. It's more like the elimination of middle class to either poor or filthy rich. Lol

get to play with the new phone for 5 min at 1U apple reseller store.

first impression, the phone feel very fast and snappy....3D touch feel pretty solid and the 2GB ram does make a differences in multitasking.

but these incremental upgrade doesn't justify the extra 1k for the phone upgrade (6plus $3149). Will wait for the next generation of iPhone instead.
*
Lol told you it will be snappier with the ram incremental

need some help here as a new iphone user.

If that doesn't work, reboot your phone? Cheers

hey all, so I've been using the 6Splus for a week and yesterday I decided to update some apps like facebook whatsapp and youtube. after the update, I realize my phone turned into berserk mode where it works x2 the usual speed. example when I open up whatsapp, it pops up immediately without waiting at all, when I press home button, the app go off immediately (usually it will have a minimizing sprite like the screen being pinched) same with other apps like facebook/ instagram/ and even some games... and even opening up Settings will have no delay at all, and multitasking were x2 faster too...

I thought the update for iOS9 and 6S helps, however, this morning when I restart my phone, it goes back to usual now..  I even compare with my wife's 6plus yesterday and it shows x2 the speed, and this morning after restarting, it goes back to the same speed as the 6plus now....

its not something to fuss about but it bothers me as Im not sure if I did something wrong.. lol.. anyone else experiencing this?
*
Lol yup... the animations breaking bug. It happens randomly.. dont know what triggers it. It can happen in 2 stages, first stage is happens inside any app. Another one is happens outside the app, on homescreen etc. Instead of transitioning to an app, it just blink and appear... Find it very annoying as it doesnt feel slick anymore... like something just pops out suddenly. One of the few triggers I saw it was when triggering it spotlight search, it goes lag a little and suddenly once it breaks, all transitions are skipped. And yes, only a reboot will fix back to the default transitions...

Initially I thought it might be due to my aging phone since it only has 1gb ram. But then I also saw the same bug in ip6s... so I could conclude its definitely the ios9 bug.

So far no major issues. I have intermittent problems with my Touch ID, but it works fine on my iPad Air 2, so I'm beginning to think it's a hardware issue. It doesn't happen often enough to be a bother so I don't plan to bring the phone back for warranty claim until just before warranty period is over, heh heh...
*
Cool cool. I'm experiencing that slight lags after unlock. Gonna let it settle for another day or two. Other than that, this phone is so blazing fast😁. Waited quite a while before maxis had 6s+ 128gb stock.

1 thing I learned with my 3 years using 2 different Sammy flagships: hardware specs means nuts without optimization. Hence apple's reluctant and recent upgrade to 2gb, yet still more fluid than any Sammy phone regardless of its 3gb/4.
But Apple is really hard ass stubborn. I recall how I missed the share links to whatsapp feature in android when convert to Apple. But things are looking good now with Apple start releasing API for sharing data between apps.
Sometimes we need android there to keep Apple to loosen up its system locks.
The truth cannot be said the other way round. See how Apple influenced android to be less flexible? Where is sd ram now? Removable battery? Remember how Sammy keep coming up with ads to mock Apple on these features? Really a shame they swsllowing their own words.
*
Well.. If you are missing those feature, perhaps you'd want to checkout one plus X?

Bought the smaller 6s 64gb and seems great with the Samsung chip. Below is a rather passive use of the phone

Damn.. Thats real good stats... I could only drive out 10hrs usage and 36 hours standby...

I half expected Anandtech to bash the 6S but was pleasantly surprised to read their conclusion...

Part of the reason why it is a good start to get 128gb sets. I think overall the 6s series is nicely future proofed for at least a few years down the road with higher ram and faster storage, two main components including with increased gpu at same res. Curious to see what's on the table for ip7 though.

Iphone 6 plus holds longer from 100 to 99 compare to 6s plus. I have tried 40 mins usage with around 2 hours standby it just drop to 99. 6s plus is much faster drop. In fact i felt my  6 plus battery is better
*
Yup that's what I've felt. After 2 hours standby it drips 5% from 100%. If you make a rough estimate, that works out to 40hours standby. That's quite the max I can get too. Was expecting more lol.

Could be the additional 1GB RAM consuming more power, which is why Apple was reluctant to up the RAM till now, ha ha..
*
Could be a combination of above, forced touch sensing mechanism and Taptic Engine feedbacks that consumed more battery. And of course the lower capacity battery...

err i'm not sure anyone bring up this topic before. i notice that the fingerprint access is too fast and log in straight. i don't have the time to read or view the notification on the lock screen. this is because sometimes i would like to view what notification n select which one to click in. but due to the fingerprint access too fast, it automatically click in to the latest apps notification. do i miss out any setting that can overcome this issue?  hmm.gif

Yes it's very fast.. So what I do is use a non registered finger to view notifications
