QUOTE(jychow @ May 13 2016, 07:31 AM) There is no hype. Just that people who like small screen phones have finally gotten a upgraded iPhone. That's all. But I think iPhone 6 screen size is perfect. 4 inch is just a bit more handy. Many of my lady friends are getting it today because they just prefer the smaller size. I was planning to get one too coz of fond memory liking the form factor until I realize I uses 3D touch a LOT daily. No, not for the gimmicky Peek and Pop which I only use for Waze and quick search Twitter and favorite message/call or even open multitasking by pressing firmly on the left side of screen but for the time saving and precise cursor selection using the keyboard. Can't live without that for my daily heavy text manipulation use.This post has been edited by sunyen: May 13 2016, 10:14 AM |

QUOTE(patienceGNR @ May 13 2016, 08:23 PM) Went to Machines at Sunway, compared all three demo side by side - all three have screen problem. on the yellow tint, its the usual adhesive color that will be gone within few weeks because the manufacturing process is identical to old iphone 5s. One has yellow tint (not too obvious) and screen is not bright, another two units when compared - one is less bright than the other, very obvious difference on brightness, are both same brightness setting with auto brightness turn on/off? fyi, if you are currently using 6s or 6s+ especially, you will notice the SE screen is dimmer as it is using the old 5S IPS LCD technology with lower contrast ratio. the difference is something like you reading an actual printed paper vs a transparent sheet placed in front of the paper.

QUOTE(shaniandras2787 @ May 17 2016, 11:46 AM) I remembered reading an article that Apple is actually releasing the SE to target "developing countries only" rather than an entire world at large which accounts for the limited stock availability worldwide. It's not because there are no demands for it, it's just that Apple is limiting supplies because Apple does not want to end up with surplus stocks in the market. We all still need to know, Apple is still a company targeting niche demographics. If there are too much surplus in the market, Apple will suffer. Apple needs to be "exclusive" and its customers need to feel that. i kinda like 5c plastic design very much. too bad hardware not up to par 😄The SE is also "considered" as a replacement model for the failed iPhone5c and despite what Apple said, we know the 5C was aimed at which category of users. I also believed that the SE will be the final 4" iPhone for Apple and will be completely phased out once Apple decided that it has run its course. Whether Steve Jobs likes it or not, 4" smartphones will not have its place in the future with the constant development in video technologies. No one wants to view 4k video on a 4" IPS panel. |

QUOTE(gonzalo20 @ May 22 2016, 11:03 PM) is it worth if i plan to change to iphone SE from ip6 just because of the camera? screen size i dont care for ip6, like what others said wait for ip7 for another few months as a major camera upgrade and extensive 3d touch functionality revamp is coming in ios10. But it is still worth for those ip6 users who take video quite a bit (eg. with children etc) because of 4K recording. I used to think 4K is just overkill 1080p is plenty enough for me until I walked into a 4K TV showrooms. Oh boy....no going back shooting my precious kids videos anything below 4K from that day on haha |

QUOTE(torreto @ May 29 2016, 07:31 PM) SE 64GB gold reporting in ! Got it for RM2380 😌. So far so good. Liking the 2GB ram. faster but if you want to prolong battery life span avoid fast charging. battery will degrade much faster with fast charging technology which most manufacturers conveniently do not mention but highlight it as a great feature. google up and u will knowOne question. Does the SE charge faster with the iPad charger like 6 & 6s ? |

QUOTE(jumpstat @ Jun 2 2016, 11:17 AM) Either way does not matter, what matters is that the apple id is the same for both old and new unit. also enable encryption for backup to keep all apps keychain passwords and apple watch health data (if u have one)Do a backup 1st of your old unit. Then restore the backup in your new iPhone. New iphone must be having same apple id. see here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766 |

QUOTE(sengkin95 @ Jul 26 2016, 11:28 AM) Totally agree with you. The assistive touch feature is like a floating black icon which just compromise the aesthetic of the UI. Primary reason as to why they see using it is so that they can lower the chances of spoiling the physical home button. my primary reason for using it is not to save the Home button but to easily mute the phone without picking the physical mute toggle on the left with my fingernail. and the mute and unmute text is helpful. i also use it to shake the phone instead of stupidly shake the phone to undo. i also use the triple click to quickly invert the screen to black for night reading. also use the multitasking without jamming the Home button twice everytime. In fact, if you are really paranoid over saving your Home button, you can turn Hey Siri on to unlock phone without pressing the Home button at all. if you also add volume up/down and Lock screen features, you can practically press not a single button on your iPhone to operate it! |
