Yeah and I still remember you. Those were the 'good old days'.

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.

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.

You can go to any ASP(Apple Authorised Service Provider).

One of the ways, albeit not very convenient is to buy an iFlash and store your photos/videos and music in it.

Suggest on both counts you scour the net and find out for yourself as we have different wants and needs.

Battery life is dependent upon usage. Value of device does not equate good battery life. It's just like complaining about spending so much money buying a Ferrari which only gives 8 miles to the gallon.

You'll get used to it in no time. That, I can guarantee you.

I have used a lot of phones and in fact still have quite a few of the latest flagships. Transitioning between them is not difficult. Immediately, you can feel the difference but after a short while, you will not even notice the size and weight difference. But for bigger phones I tend to use 2 hands to operate, just for precautionary measure.

I currently am entangled in both iOS and Android. But, whilst it takes a little getting used to, it is not all that difficult to familiarise with them. Good thing Windows's not in the equation.

Those third party apps have their independent settings. Go into them and off the vibrate mode.

Not for those looking for a bigger screen.

Just out and you already could feel it being worse? How long have you been on 9.3?

Definitely not normal. Suggest you update to 9.3 to see if the problem is done away with. If not, a trip to the ASP is necessary.

I have both Apple and Samsung's flagship phones. Insofar as the camera is concerned, for normal users, I would say both are just as good. So, you have to consider other factors before investing in another phone.

For good order, I would like to say this.....Obviously, there is no perfect phone. Heck, there is no perfect anything.

When people post here, naturally, it would be more negatives than positives. Not too many will post compliments. On top of that, those in the former category are not large in numbers in relationship to the ownerships of the phone. Therefore, the analogy is that anyone wants to update the firmware of the phone should not be influenced by the negative posts here. If you happen to encounter problems after that, then you are in the minority and luck is not on your side.

Perhaps I should have qualified or expounded more. I was more referring to the forum here vis-a-vis when complaints were made on a particular issue. Then again, when the manufacturer/supplier/vendor, if you will, acknowledges that there is a problem, say for example, a certain defective car part, then yes, the issue is a major one. Not when certain individuals encountering problems and sulk about it in a forum does it mean it is a problem per se.

As for iOS 9.3, the problem affects the older versions of iDevices, not the newer iterations which Apple has acknowledged and set right, as we speak(type). So, for a lot of us having the latest iOS gadgets, I believe there aren't too many problems or none at all. That, in a nutshell was my contention.

A caveat here, I am not one of the iFags as some of you coined here. I am never brand loyal. I own Android, iOS and even Windows gadgets. I am just pragmatic in my approach to matters like this.

But alas, the gadgets in your hands are yours and therefore it is your prerogative to do what you want with them. We all here post what we feel and hopefully for some people, serious consideration but definitely just light reading for no smaller groups.

I agree with you to a certain extent. Since the demise of Steve Jobs, they have not given us, the consumers, much to shout about.

Yeah, I read it. But only some of the latest iterations are affected. And I am not disputing that this is a major issue as you put it. And if it's anything to go by, all my iOS devices have no problems with this latest update and I have quite a few.

Actually, you are right. Some iPhones' screens are more curved. Mine is one of them. I am now using a PET SP and it's not a cheap one, after unsuccessfully trying a few glass SP. But still prefer TG SP. You know of any which will be able to 'take the curve'?
