General FAQs:

1. When is the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus launching in Malaysia?
October 16th, 2015

2. Warranty policy for iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus?
The warranty for the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus is 1-year limited and only valid on the country of purchase and will start the date you activate the phone. So for non-Malaysia units, you might not be able to claim your warranty at any service centres in Malaysia. For those who bought from retail stores such as Machines/Switch, please bring your phone back to the store of your purchase for warranty claim. Telco unit should be claimed from telco as well. Those who order from Apple online Store should call them up and request for pickup and replacement. Read more here >> http://www.apple.com/legal/warranty/produc...ocument-us.html

3. Should I get the 16GB or 64GB?
DO NOT get the 16GB. WE REPEAT: DO NOT GET the 16GB model. With 4k video recording, live photos and many more features, 16GB will never be enough no matter how well are you in managing the data on your phone or you live the cloud life.

4. Should I get the iPhone 6s or 6s Plus?
It's up to you. If you think larger screen is better then go for it.

5. When Apple said 16/10, it means that we can buy on that day or it'll start shipping on that day or...?
It means you can start ordering from Apple Online Store or any authroised retail store.

aside from the Force Touch, 12mp camera and RAM increase, there's not much left to talk about since the basics such as accessories, warranty, iOS, etc have already been discussed in the iPhone 6, Accessories and iOS thread. so when iPhone 7 comes out, the hype will hidup balik, then die down a bit when iPhone 7S comes out.

The S upgrades generally garners less hype than the numerical upgrades.

Thats sounds good. Using force touch to wake the phone would be a good idea rather than double tapping it. Android phones with double tap wakes have issues with accidenly waking the phone and battery drain because of the screen on standby.

If this happens, we may end up not needing to use any buttons at all haha with the help of Assistive Touch. I'm a bit worried about the power button due to a history of spoiled power buttons (iPhone 4,4S and 5S). Now i'm extra careful with it

I'm not an iPhone users, but I have the same thought like you, because I have an iPad mini at home. Since I'm an Android phone users, I only choose those phone that have double tap to wake with on screen button. Lel..

Double tap home button is already used for Apple Pay. You need a compatible Visa, AmEx or MasterCard added to iOS Wallet app.

Does anyone has prob with over heating without you touching the phone?
I placed my phone on my bed and went to have my meal (not charging it)
when I want to check on my phone it was super hot
I sent it to apple store but after one week still no news from them
They told me that when they test, nothing seems to happen and it works perfectly fine
Are they gonna return the phone to me or replacing a new one for me?

They'll thoroughly check it first, but if there is a problem then most likely you will get a replacement unit.

hi all user,
pls check your volume button... is there any difference between the upper and lower button? i found that my upper button looks like pressed inside compared to the lower one... if look from the side, u will notice the unbalance between those two buttons...

by the way, the button function very well, just when i put the casing, its kind of hard to press... and the 'click' sound also different...

P/s: Updated with the real picture...

There is not much of a difference for me, to be honest (because I've used a friend's iPhone 6S and the button is easy to press, even under the casing). laugh.gif

Maybe it's something to do with the casing being too thick, or something else altogether? hmm.gif

Thanks iPlx but I've tried using itunes before using garageband.. same result. the ringtone sound like no bass at all.. I don't think there is problem with the speaker coz playing with music app sounds good.
How about ur custom ringtones, same quality like playing with music app?

Does anyone has this problem whereby the iphone receives delayed notification from whatsapp, LINE, etc when screen locked. or sometimes u have to manually go into the app itself and wait for around 3 seconds to see if there's any incoming messages. my phone is nt on battery saving and i din tweak any notification settings. Wifi and data both will encounter this as well. HELP~

what method did you use? for me what i did was choose the song, set the duration of which part i want, save it as an AAC copy, go to the file location, change the format from .m4a to .m4r, add the changed format to iTunes and transfer it to my phone. and it sounds as good as the normal music file, to me at least.

Read online that Mophie patented their design, so Apple cannot make anything that is similar to the design of the Mophie.
Hence, the ugly design.

But it still should've been better. They kinda half-assed it with this one. Hahaha.

I was shocked when I saw that new release from Apple... It feels like their design department has now been handled by retards not knowing the fundamentals of a good design. First is the lightning port position on new Magic Mouse. Then this one... Yucks!

After updating to iOS 9.2, i feel my 6s is slightly warmer & battery life is draining fast.
It's even hotter when charging unlike previous version before update.
The Apps Store is not working even I click "UPDATE" to the apps I've.

Anyone facing this?

Still charging though 62%, but just now during backup the battery is dropping from 40% ~ 30% even with cable on.
It's not as hot as well. Hopefully back to normal level.

Hah, you should see Rene Richie's review of it on iMore. The man is a buaya artist, I tell you. Should find a job in Najib's cabinet.

Honestly speaking, Apple were never really that good at making peripherals. Difference is, in the past it was more of a reliability issue. Now it's design.

For me, their biggest goof in the last couple of years has to be an ergonomic one - the location of sleep/wake button in relation to the volume buttons. Putting the two opposite to each other is basically a schoolboy error in industrial design.

Yesterday was a public holiday so my wife and I unplugged our phones from the chargers at the same time and when it was time to call it a night, our usage was pretty similar so it was a good opportunity to compare battery life: -

Attached Image Attached Image

Mine is a 6S Plus (on the left) vs hers a 6 Plus. Both on iOS 9.2, same telco and we were pretty much together the whole day yesterday so location would be same.

Conclusion: Fairly similar battery life between the 6S Plus and 6 Plus.

Edit: If anything probably the 6 Plus has a bit more coz I doubt 10 minutes usage will cost 3% more battery life? Oh well...

Guys, the headphone jack on my IPhone 6s Plus has stopped working. (I.e. Sound still comes out from the phone and not headphone when plugged in). Usually, if send back to Maxis, how long do I have to wait for a replacement? And is the replacement unt guaranteed to be a refurbished one?

Guys, is there a faster way to initiate iTunes wifi Sync instead of going to Settings>General>iTunes Wifi Sync?

Since getting an AC access point, I've been using it a lot as it's a fair bit faster than N.

Better not to apparently. Deep discharges (till 10-20%) can damage the battery.

Now, I always make it a point to charge whenever I reach 40-50%.

AFAIK iTunes WiFi sync happens automatically when iPhone is locked and plugged in, just like iCloud backups.

The one in Settings is just to trigger the sync process manually.

Anyone's home button occasionally has some sort of popping/crackling sound when pressed? Not sure what's the best word to describe it but it's like the home button popping back to place.

Yes would like to bring it in but:

1) It happens only occasionally so it'll be difficult to reproduce it at the service centre.

2) Need to know if it is also kinda common so that I know what are the chances for the replacement unit to behave the same way also.

Never had that problem. Were you pressing it at an angle?

Not necessary for it to be pressed at certain angle for the pop/crack sound. It's most probably the button getting misaligned once in a while and when that happens, pressing it will make the button sit properly again and probably that's when the sound comes.

It does not happen often for now but definitely a concern for a relatively new phone.

yeah i encountered this before once, that time i was in the plane which just landed, i thought it was due to air pressure..But since now you also encounter this, possibly is due to misalignment of button.

Afaik there were issues on cracking noise on the home button since the 5s. I would think that it could be a missaligned home button or some dust or lint that have somehow gotten inside the housing. Im pretty sure its just an annoyance, rather than a really major issue. You try sending it back to Apple Reseller Service Centres and ask them if they could open up the phone on the spot to see what is the issue.

Do the service centres open up phones for checking and probably some cleaning/servicing?

Otherwise I'll wait until things get worse and for the noise to happen more frequently, then I'll probably go to a reputable iPhone repair shop and ask them open it up and see what's up with the home button.

And yes you are right, it does not seem to affect usability so at the moment definitely just annoyance.

You can try Mac City. Their service personnel are more service orientated. Like I said, you could try to request, but knowing Apple's policy is to RMA your unit back to them and replace it with another seed unit, Im not sure if the service personnel would want to open up for a look see.

there are a lot of types of casing. protective case, slim case, tpu case, folder case. depends on what you want. want personalized cantik case or want protection. u can find a lot of choices in the mobile accessories trade zone. i personally bought many cases from this seller sakurazz, particularly ringke fusion. decent protection, doesnt hide the phone. but some may complaint it looks cheap.

I personally will survey Spigen cases first to see if there's any I like, their casings are pretty good and yet still remains in the affordable price range.

im using Unifi, no problem when back up to icloud, the issue with storage size is bothering me... now im confuse if i should cancel my monthly subscription and just use the free 5GB since it can't backup my photo library.

so you are saying it can upload 10.9GB photo library to my icloud?

Because the weird things is... when I off icloud backup, then go to manage storage i saw my Photo library size is 10.9GB, next backup size is 9.1GB..

But when i turn ON icloud backup, then go to manage storage, it only show 5GB of photo library.

check under settings > photos if iCloud photo library is turned on. if so, your pics are backed up separately from your device. i'm on the 50gb plan and used 20 gb of space; 13.8 gb used for iCloud photo library, 2.6 GB for iPhone backup, 1.1 gb for iCloud email, and some other amount for app documents and data (whatsapp backups fall under here).

If you need it fast perhaps you can also check with some of the independent iPhone repair shops, they might have it.

Depends on how big your music and photo libraries are. My entire music and photo library is 41GB and 15GB, a 64 GB wouldn't fit. Even if I removed the photos it wouldn't be enough to fit my apps.

Did you unnoticingly enable the mute button at the sides because the side mute button is notorious for being misspressed?

Been using iphone 4, iphone 5, iphone 5s, and iphone 6 with no problem at all, but this iphone 6s plus is the bad one lol..

No such issues even on 9.21 beta
I think your battery has degraded
Do have it checked at service center

they will check the LCI whether change color biggrin.gif just clean the egg liquid and send to claim warranty, if the LCI doesnt change color, the chances you able to claim warranty is quite high

normally any warranty claim at Apple Authorized Reseller they will check the LCI first if screen unable to turn on.

but review claim 6S is more "waterproof" than 6 before.... http://www.engadget.com/2015/10/02/iphone-6s-waterproof/

i doubt the egg liquid can go into your phone faster than water

Its kind of similar with my case. When i charge my phone, the percentage increased inconsistently. For example, when i charge from 10%, the percentage turn up to 17% in ten minutes. But ten minutes later, the percentage only turns to 19%...

I have monitor the charging process every ten minutes to see the percentage progress... It shows some jumping in the percentage. But in the end, the charging has completed in time and the battery performs very well...

I think its kind of bugs, since there are a few users also having this issue. Maybe u should google it and u can found many users facing the same issue...

Got one question here. What are the pros and cons of buying US and SG set iphones? Some people say different country uses different frequency signal. And the signal the phone receives is a bit unclear if being used in diff country. Is that true? blink.gif

yes, now more compatible... last few gen iphone better buy MY set, but now US also do have compatible band for Malaysia LTE

SG set = MY set, just the serial will tell you it is SG or MY... supported band is same.
6S is A1688, plus is A1687 http://www.apple.com/iphone/LTE/

there are iphone 6S unlocked set from US which can be use like MY set in Malaysia

but as for warranty, it is advise to buy MY set, some forumers claimed over sea set manage to claim warranty locally, but the is a risk because not 100% can...

U can always remove or insert ur own sim cards.
The phone is not locked to any telco.
In other words, Malaysia version is UNLOCKED.

so do you think need to send to SC like what previous owner reply? I hope that is not needed as Apple SC test takes quite long time to make sure your phone got problem. I think probably is IOS issue?

If u ask for my opinion, then i would suggest u to wait and keep on monitoring this issue from time to time. but if the prob getting worse, then only u go to service centre. let's hope they will come with some fix for the next update.

My iphone app store have no update since last week, feeling unusual as everyday I should receive notification to update app, but no at all.
When I go to update there, it shows "All apps are up to date".

Is this normal?

Error 53 indicates an issue with the network connection or your computer, or possibly faulty installation of Touch ID sensor.

If the second is the issue, no other way but to take it to a service centre.

I have that issue. Also same if i use the cable to any apple touch id phone. Maybe electricity in my home hav.e problem. But if use original, don't have that issue. Issue happened only when direct charging but not through powerbank.

Buy protection laugh.gif
Go for a case & tempered glass first. Splgen and Otterbox are good and sturdy.

Then you can move on to the other things like a car holder (if you use your phone for Waze like me), extra charging cables & etc.

What I normally do after getting my new phone is getting a screen protector and casing. I usually buy those heavy duty casing, preferably water proof case. So once I bought my phone, it will be sealed in the case forever... lol!

Question:
Is it normal for a 128 phone to get laggy after unlocking the phone?
My screen will sometimes freeze for awhile about half a second before it move. It happened quite frequent. Also, sometimes my Whatsapp buttons on top will cramp one side, the (<back) and the phone icon will cramp one side and the contact name is not visible.
btw, I did a phone restore from my 5s to 6sPlus. Does that affect the system?

Need to see warranty from which company. Many seller in lazada or 11street sell import set which i doubt can be claimed in Malaysia.

To me the extra 1GB is already more than enough reasons for me to upgrade to the 6s, but due to the price of the new iPhones, I think I'll stick to my iPhone 6 Plus for another 2 years since I don't do a lot of gaming and multitasking.

Anyone having problem with the phone max brightness? I just noted recently that my phone max brightness is reduced when compared side by side to my friends iphone 6s. His phone also appeared to have more contrast, more like oled screen. After that I compared with few more iphone 6s, all also got higher max brightness than my phone.

Is this issue covered by warranty? I know there should be slight variation due to different supplier/manufacturer, but this problem is obvious enough that all iphone i encounter so far got more brightness than mine sad.gif

By the way, I already turned off auto brightness and increased contrast in setting when doing comparison.

Your network providers have their hands full yesterday, especially when a large crowd congregates at a certain location to celebrate new. Hence, network was very slow yesterday nite.

Is the Power button parallel with the top volume button? I somehow feels like the Power button is slightly higher.

RMA is return material authorization. in easy word, they need to return ur defect unit to get working unit. Which the unit is refurbished set.

U can check it by seeing the model number. Seldom people who claim get the Malaysia set. Most of it from Hong Kong or Singapore itself. Beside, on the box have written RFB/Seed unit.

Here is the example last time I claimed https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?act=Atta...post&id=5330512

You would definately get a seed unit. And a seed unit is not a new unit like you buy from an authorized reseller. rolleyes.gif

Still remember at the launch of iPhone 3G, the screen was so yellow and the Home button didn't work, Maxis replaced with Refurbished unit within a week or two.

The unit was flawless despite knowing that it was a refurb unit.

Yup obvious sign of a refurbish unit. If brand new, they will open a new box in front of u.
I have no complains with refurbish unit. My refurbish is better quality than brand new bcoz Apple will have to go through a single item quality check after repair , to qualify it as refurbish.
Brand new units random quality checks - worse quality. That is why u send ur 'new' phone for warranty anyway.

Yes, don't be disheartened by a refurbish unit as it will be as good as new and goes through a QC check. Just check for cosmetic flaws as sometimes the shell of the phone is not replaced and might have some flaws.

Yup that is what I am saying. More stringent qc for the single refurbished set. Replaced new outer shell. What is there to complain?
On the other hand, my new out of the box ip6 so much issue - mute button loose. Battery inside loose etc. mad.gif
Luckily replaced seed units no such issues.

I do get lagging on my 6s Plus earlier and I was on 9.2.
I asked the Switch guy he told me that 9.2 still not that stable. But if Im not wrong, when I was on 9.0 it seems fine la..
I get lagging issues whenever I switch apps or unlock my phone. It will some how freeze half a sec before it move on..

I asked the Switch guy he told me that 9.2 still not that stable. But if Im not wrong, when I was on 9.0 it seems fine la..
I get lagging issues whenever I switch apps or unlock my phone. It will some how freeze half a sec before it move on..

I have the same experience too. 9.2 is the worst so far. Sluggish every single day. Hope the real new update will fix everything.

Ya, if it works for you, don't fix what's not broken smile.gif

For me, my Touch ID was having intermittent problems on iOS 9.1, sometimes it works, but sometimes can't detect. So no choice, have to update and it works fine now.

Guys, when I sync music with iTunes I always get -48 error. Although I do plug-in my external SSD so the data comes from there not inside PC.

And my storage on my phone keeps depleting day by day, WTF?

Try delete ur music and sync back. Or try to copy the music file into drive in pc and sync back. Or last resort, fresh restore.

should i be pissed off with this set? like i bought the first one (iphone is not a cheap phone) but suddenly got problem, then they replace with refurnished set.

i read somewhere here.. refurnished set model number end with LL... and refurnished set didnt come with box or accessories.. but my case i get back the first phone box and accessories, they just exchange the phone only...

Erm.. to be fair la.. most warranty repair or exchange will ask u to remove everything. Even if you have a screen protector applied, they will not be responsible for it.
So like last time I used to sent my mom's phone back to Xiaomi, I have to make sure I removed everything from back cover to battery to memory card cos they will take no responsibility on it. Its kinda on their TnC.

Btw, which Switch u went? I sent mine to Switch too! haha

Erm.. as per other waterproof casings, they do have their safety regulations/safety test to be done before applying ur phone into it.
There's also a disclaimer saying that they will no be responsible for the damage of the phone kinda thingy and they only warranty your casing if there's any leaking during the safety test.
So it's like a use on your own risk kinda thingy.. sad.gif

Guys, wanted to ask about the battery life on the iphone 6s plus.
Normally i used till 4-5% then charge overnight till 100%.
So i have been checking it's battery life so the conclusion is

Usage 11 hour
Standby 40 hour

The top 2 background running activity apps is 'Facebook' and 'Whatapps'.

So does my battery healthy?

Thanks

So I guess mine is same as urs, VN. LOL!

So F and N consider not same or same? hmm.gif
But anyway, new or refurbished, I also no care la.. as long as I get back my phone.. hahah
Now Im worried for next Thursday as most of these incident happened on Thurs. sweat.gif

24/12 (thu) : bought new phone

LOL. You should've known by now that 6/6s series have the worst design.

If you put on SP, you should find slim cases that only covers until the metal body, not meeting the curved glass.

If it covers more than the curved edges, it will surely messes up your SP.

https://discussions.apple.com/thread/724671...tart=0&tstart=0

where the tempered glass screen protector does not really fit the 6S and 6S+ with SP lifting at the edges..
*
Looking at your case, it seems to be the screen problem already and not the tempered glass. You can try all types of tempered glass brands and you will most probably experience the same problem.

This happens because most probably the sides of your glass screen is "more curved" compared to the "normal glass screen curve", hence screen protectors cant stick at the sides.

I've face the same problem when installed normal glass SP on the first day I got the phone. Change it to another "full cover" SP type really solved the problem. More likely the SP is the problem here.

No solution for this kind of issue.
It just means that your screen will not be compatible with tempered glasses. Only hope is to try those thin plastic screen protector, mayb the screen protector might be able to stick to the curve parts

Yes, because your network switches to 2G when you receive a call and switches data back on after you end your call. No need for worries.

usually if the area jumps between 3G and 2G it will choose the more stable 2G for you to answer your call unless u use facetime

Actually it's something I noticed since my iPhone 5 - When I'm in a 4G area, the network switches to 3G when receiving or making calls and when I'm in a 3G area it switches to Edge or GPRS. Definitely a network thing.

Could be a rogue app. Try a hard reset and restore before sending it back for RMA.

3D Touch is all about putting pressure/pressing your screen.

If not comfortable then use iPhone 6.

Change the setting for the pressure to become more sensitive,,that way will save you force to press harder on screen. I switch apps so conveniently with 3d touch.

got myself a 6s today and just wanna get any recommendation on tempered glass (half screen as i'm using spigen tough armor casing) which is good and not too expensive.

i'm currently using one but there's like a "bubble" line at both sides of the screen as if it does not stick on the screen. i also notice that the screen protector does not cover the screen fully at the side.

You will never get a perfect SP with 6/6s iPhone series. The curved glass made it hard for the SP to stick, mostly glass types.

And with the new glass (dual-ion exchange) on 6s, it's even harder to stick because the glass is more slippery but stronger.

I believe you can using SanDisk iXpand flash drive with the companion app (available in App Store). Smallest storage available is 16GB and it is pricey.

You might need to update the otg drive software first if your phone is on ios9 n above. Clear instructions on how to do it is with small leaflet that comes with the device

Technically both are almost the same thickness. Honestly speaking both cases are not much thinner than the Slim Armor
Ringke Fusion slightly better as it has dust cap and lightning port cap

If it's the whole screen being more yellowish than other units, might be normal as Apple have different suppliers for the display so depending on the batch, it might not be the same.

If it's just certain parts of the screen, wait it out for a while as with all new phones, sometimes it's the glue not fully cured. I'd say give it a few weeks and if it's still the same, try bringing it in for warranty.

I see, not whole screen I'd say. It's the edge of the screen yellowish. Checked with white screen.
Asked around, there's no cure for that, except change screen. Or go claim warranty. Which also possible to get same issue.
If it's common, should be no problem, but if it's rare case, then I should be more careful next time.

It's okay to buy the phone if its a good deal because some yellow tints are actually more accurate than the "bluish" ones under different lightning. Besides... you can already change how "blue" or "yellow" your iphone screen looks with the new update

And a "cool" tint is not always the accurate one... especially when you see the phones under different lightnings..
Look at this this example..

I prefer a warmer lightning because its more accurate in most lightnings and less strain to the eyes..

It's okay to buy the phone if its a good deal because some yellow tints are actually more accurate than the "bluish" ones under different lightning. Besides... you can already change how "blue" or "yellow" your iphone screen looks with the new update

And a "cool" tint is not always the accurate one... especially when you see the phones under different lightnings..
Look at this this example..

If it's about warmer or cooler, should be no problem. It's like you see blank white paper but edge got burned mark. Should I still consider the unit? Touch is not affected.

When you first initially set up the phone did you choose Malaysia as your region ? If you did then you would get the Malaysian calendar set up already. That's my experience anyways.

I remember reading about this very same enquiry on the net and saw a reply for a work-around where you could go to a completely silent place and record the "sound" and then set that as your ringtone. Unfortunately I don't know of any other method, ha ha..

Hi guys

Just got my first iphone (6s plus 128gb) from Apple online store last week. When I first switched on the phone to activate it, I instantly realised that the top edge of my phone screen is unevenly lit, and there's some sorta dark band/shadow along the top edge. I went to Machine to check the display units, and found that all of them have the same 'problem' as my phone, except one. I checked with the Machine staff, and was informed that this is bcos my phone is still new, and I should use and charge it for few times and it will improve gradually. He even showed me the older iphone 6plus on display that the shadow will disappear as repeated charging and use.

After 3 days of using my new iphone, the 'shadow' still remains there. Quite concern, I'd called Apple Care support this morning and spoken to the technician. Was told that might be due to software issues, as I still haven't updated my phone to the last ios 9.3. It's still the same after I updated it to 9.3. Now, the technician advised me to send my phone to the repair centre for a diagnosis, which I'm reluctant since it's just 4-day-old.

As I'm new to iphone, just want to ask whether is it normal for iphone to have such 'shadowy' screen on the top edge? To me it seems that something's not right with the screen, since it looks like that part is unevenly lit. I looked at my old Sony Z1, but the screen color near the top edge is always in dark color, unlike iphone 6s plus that is in white background, so I cant observe if it's also the same.

What the staff in Machine told me, is it true? But I don't really believe what the staff in Machine told me, since there's one 6splus in display that looks perfectly lit and bright. Should I send my phone to repair centre?

pls help, thanks!

Perhaps what you are experiencing is light bleed? You can search for it on Google and see if it's similar?

You can try other service centres apart from Machines and get a second opinion.

Please check whether your auto brightness setting is set to auto. That's why your screen display is slightly dim if set to auto.

This is a defect.
Unfortunately, if there's no other defects in the phone, I would advice you to keep the phone because my 6S also have an unevenly lit display and after I sent to warranty, I get another replacement(refurbished) phone with same uneven lit display. The majority of display units I see also have this issue
I think there's something wrong with apple display manufacturing.. If you want to try your luck you can...
Just pray that you don't get one with more defects.. (like home button speakers etc)

Omg... shakehead.gif

Yes, apart from the shadowy issue, the rest of the phone is OK, but I also realised there is a very narrow gap between the screen and the phone's gold casing near the power/sleep button til the curve. You can only see it when you compare closely between 2 sides, but to me that is still acceptable...

Anyway, your replacement is a refurbished phone? The apple technician did offer me few options, send for diagnosis, replacement or refund. I was assured that the replacement will be a new unit though... just that before I can decide or ask further our phone conversation got cut off due to bad reception on my side... So i'm thinking to call again only after I make up my mind.

Yeah I got a replacement phone haha I bought it on Maxis though..

If possible I'd like to use it with my apple leather case.


My story:
All tempered glass are the full cover.

1st - Apple machines (Gardens) - 0.3mm - RM160 (no air gap)
Perfectly fitted but change because got a few minor scratches.

Here is when I keep changing the sp because I can't handle the annoying air gap.

2nd - Mr DIY (Plaza Alam Sentral) - 0.3mm - RM8 - full transparent (got air gap)

3rd - Online purchase at lelong - 0.3mm - RM20 (got air gap)

4th - Nillkin (Klang parade) - 0.2mm - RM40 (got air gap, not fit to use with Apple leather case)

5th - Machines (Sunway Pyramid) - 0.15mm - RM140 (no air gap)
I'm satisfied with my sp but my phone drops and the tempered glass cracked so I replace with a new one.

6th (Currently using - picture as in attachment) online purchase Lelong - 0.2mm -RM30 (got air gap)

According to the list, this clearly shows that the only way to get a perfect fitted tempered glass with no air gap is to buy at Apple Store. However I'd like to hear if u guys have any other options or suggestions for my next tempered glass. Do recommend any good sp seller that can solve this issue.

just get my 6s+ today. i first charge the phone when the battery is 16%, after around half an hour charging only 1% up until 17% and then i restart the phone it display 50%. just now i update to ios 9.2.1 already still doesn't fix the battery display update problem lol

and the charging is very slow when the screen is off, but when i on the screen the charging % will up quite fast rclxub.gif

precisely the same situation as mine,the charging sort of like woke up when you unlock the phone.
in fact the charging time is very inconsistent,sometime it charges like crazy,like 1% per minute,sometime 10 minutes per 1%,sometime i charge overnight also hasn't full when i woke up.
i hope the next update resolve this problem

If you're prepared to fork out some money, get imos 3D corning.

Yeah I saw most of the users in this thread were suggested to go for Imos. Where can I get it? But it's 0.4mm isn't? Do you think this sp won't have the air gap at the side of the screen?

Actually I'm not really a fan of thick sp and I don't think 3D sp will be compatible to go with the Apple leather case. Specifically I prefer to have a 0.15 - 0.25mm sp if possible. But if there is no other option I might give it a go.

Tell you what, from what I read in Apple Discussions that the curvature of the 6s/6s Plus is more rounder than 6. That is why the air gap is there cause there's no glass for the tempered glass to stick on.

I read that too.. The Apple discussion came up first when I Google it. But according to the Apple staff (pyramid) on my 6th sp, they told me that they don't have any specific tempered glass for the 6s. All the tempered glass that they are selling is compatible for both 6 and 6s. I was kinda afraid that the air gap issue still persist when buying the sp from them but later after they had it installed, I am very satisfied as it fits perfectly without any air gap at the side of the screen. Check out my previous tempered glass as in the attachment. It fits perfectly without any air gap. It's just I'm here to find any other alternative besides buying the tempered glass from the Apple stores.

Can I just solicit advice here whether anyone here who signed up a plan with DiGi, purchased an iPhone 6s Plus but got a DOA unit? And were you able to claim under the 14 days Apple Return/Replacement policy and not under RMA as the unit was only a couple of days old? TQ.

Calling 6S users who've upgraded from the 6 wink.gif

It is really worth upgrading? Sorry if this has been asked for the umpteenth time.
Been using my i6 for a year now and am still on the fence if I should go for the 6S.

I noticed the significant bumped in performance eg the 2G RAM
Day to day usage, did you notice significant speed bump? Gamings and browsing etc.

And also the 3d touch, it is really a gimmick or it is really useful?

Pls advise blush.gif

The additional ram helps a lot especially in browsing with many tabs opened . There is no reloading issue unlike ip6
I don't do gaming but I am sure the 2gb memory is an added advantage
3d touch I rarely used as I find is half baked effort from Apple. I rarely hit it correctly 100% !!
Get a feel of it in the store to assess better
I will not recommend an upgrade unless you had the budget for it

Too true bro. Still considering if the specs / performance bump justify the 1k upgrade for me.

I jumped the bandwagon and upgraded from the 6 plus to the 6s plus. The speed is indeed noticeable. Camera wise the front camera allows me to take selfies in low lighting now. Pretty awesome.

3d touch allows me to view all my social messages with out people knowing I've read them with the peek feature. Quite good.

It's up to you if your budget allows.

I thought they'll be less encouragement from ppl to upgrade from 6 to 6s as compared to upgrading from older models, looks like the feedbacks are saying otherwise

I have tried 3d touch before (currently jailbroken my i6 and using the software-based 3d touch wink.gif and yeah, I like it a lot. Sure would like to go for the genuine thang.

@telekom, you mentioned about the improved camera, it's only the bump from 8 to 12 MP right and the selfie cam. Any other upgrades?

I went from a 6 Plus to a 6S Plus. Initially didn't want to upgrade but got a good deal for my 6 Plus. There is definitely a significant bump in speed and performance. The extra 1GB of RAM really makes a difference. Everything seems smoother. I don't really use 3D Touch (in fact, sometimes I completely forget it's there) and I don't play games (unless you count Candy Crush), but in terms of browsing and multi-tasking, the experience on the 6S Plus is much better than that of the 6 Plus.

Is it worth the upgrade? At this point it depends on your budget but it's probably worth waiting for the 7.

Personally most noticeable different is the touch ID when unlocking screen.

Force touch- not much use.

Thanks for all the feedback all. Much appreciated.
Have decided to go for it - used or new. Life is short, just do what you like to do. Haha

Ok what are the colors you all are using? Been having black front IPhones for the last 2-3 gens, wanna go for white now.
Is the rose gold really percepted as girly? See from GS, most of the used sets are rose gold. Maybe the traders anticipated that there's more demand as its a new color

Would probably go for gold!

If you are looking at reselling it, more unique colors like "gold" and "rose gold" will probably be slightly higher priced/being looked out for due to the fact space grey and white/silver will be still available when a new iPhone launch.

If you are looking at reselling it, more unique colors like "gold" and "rose gold" will probably be slightly higher priced/being looked out for due to the fact space grey and white/silver will be still available when a new iPhone launch.

lol obviously gold and rose gold will be available for the future iphones.
only scalpers will have the mindset that these colors has "more value" than the others.

Actually in a way, I think the color demands would affect the resell value. This is one example of a refurbished set sales thread for 6 plus.

64 GB :
Space Grey - RM 2450
Silver - RM 2600
Gold - RM 2650

128 GB:
Space Grey - RM 2500
Silver - RM 2630
Gold - RM 2650

Note that difference in color can go up to RM200 in pricings. But having said that, I would still go for the color that I like rather than focusing purely on the resell value

I meant the older model would not have certain colors. Of course newer model iPhones definitely will have rose gold and gold.

Exm. When iPhone 6s/6s plus came out, iPhone 6/6plus only has white/silver and space grey.

@jesseblue <--- getting what I meant. But not everyone thinks the same way, thinking a color affects the pricing. smile.gif

What are u babbling about? IPhone 6 HAS gold color. It started from iphone 5s. Iphone 6s introduced rose gold and it WILL be available in that color for the future iphones.

As i said, only scalpers think those colors are "special edition"

I know every iPhone has gold. I'm saying after a newly launched iPhone. Buying new, Apple limits the older model to only white/silver and space grey options. (Go to apple.com, options for gold isn't available).

That's one reason why people treat rose gold and gold as "special edition"

Sorry if I can't explain it well enough. smile.gif cheers

I beg to differ. It is not the scalpers but the buying public who dictate the special edition status as it is they who provide the demand which makes it so. So, the so-called scalpers ride the wave and embark on the profiteering band-wagon.

What he meant was Apple has officially stopped selling the Gold colour for the iPhone 6
http://www.apple.com/my/shop/buy-iphone/iphone6

So now the iPhone 6 Gold colour becomes like "special edition" and ppl take opportunity to raise the price of the Gold colour

The gold on the iPhone 6 and 6s is a little different. Go check it out at the Apple stores. Unless my eyes have issues

The color hue is getting lighter with every generation but Apple and scalpers are still continuing to milk money off customers.

Only Apple can fool the world claiming pink color is gold.
