Since you live in KL, plan with umobile is the cheapest. Also if you terminate the plan later, you only pay much lower price than retail/normal shop.

No telco is perfect. It you are happy with Celcom coverage, stick with it. 38 is very good price. One up with be the 80 first gold plan. 5+5GB plan. Then you can sign a one year commitment and save a few hundred ringgit. rclxms.gif

Or just buy outright and stick with the 38 plan. Paying more for some thing you don't use is a big cost in the long run.

I concur with the rest... don't just sign a contract and end up paying high commitment fee for what you don't use, you might have to end up paying more than just buying the phone outright. Plus telco plans are getting more and more competitive... not signing a contract gives you the flexibility to switch later on when you see a more suitable plan with good coverage at your area.

You can try to look for it at Spectrum Mall Ampang Digi Store. Last Saturday I went there to sign my Iphone 6S. They told me there are 1 (or 2) Iphone SE 64G Rose Gold available.

Depends on individual usage. If you are not a gamer, it should be alright. But if you game a lot, you should get the higher capacity. Games are bigger in size.

I read some where with 16gb, we need to clear storage even for Whatsapp from time to time. Picture somehow is a must to clear. 12mp cam sure produce huge pic file.

A fresh install for IOS on Iphone SE will take about 4gig + of your 16Gig. that will leave you wil 11g+. The usual Apps like whatsapp will take 2-3 Gig EASILY if your friends like to send pictures and video. Facebook cache, I-message , all need storage.

Safe to say, with MINIMAL apps and maybe 6 months of photos taken irregularly, you will end up with about 2G of storage left to work with.I find this very restrictive and I need to constantly backup my photos and delete them from Iphone to make way for extra space.

The updates for the Apps keep getting LARGER incrementally. I remember it was only 90mb for Facebook two years ago, but now you see the it ballooning to 120MB. 16Gig will affect your user experience with Iphone.

16 Gig iphone models don't have very good resale value IMHO. I attempted to sell my Iphone 6 16G model few months ago, to my surprise only got 2-3 inquiries in lowyat forum.

In summary, consider this

1. User experience
2. Resale value
