One of the reason i use iPhone is simple, tap the top to reload, swipe left to right to go back previous page.

hi there iPhone expert, I'm tempted to get iPhone 7 from Singapore. Some seller said warranty claimable in Apple Malaysia while others denied it. is there anyone that has actual experience in claiming warranty with Apple Malaysia for iPhone bought in Singapore (or outside Malaysia)? cheers and thanks in advance smile.gif
*
I am a seller myself, too. No, not claimable in Apple Malaysia or any authorised premium reseller.

Usually i brought back to Singapore if it is needed. But then since iPhone 4 i am dealing with, none of it required this. Apple pretty much has no problem within the first 2 years.

Adding on to this, even with APC+, it is not international waranty

What i know is few popular stores over at Australia told people who queue that there will be no walk-in purchase tomorrow for Plus model. Compare to iPhone 6 and iPhone 6s period, there are still selling every model to walk in.

Pretty much to remove queue as it always lead to conflict and unnecessary problems.

While waiting for Apple Store unit, went ahead and check out JB HiFi and plenty of iPhone 7 stock, all colours, all capacity, except Jet Black. Hooted one here.

Quick review
- need time to get used to new home button
- matte black looks better in real unit
- no top volume output holes

short 3.5mm to lightning converter

some hardware instruction and the usual apple sticker

Review:
- Phone is slightly heavier, thicker compare to iPhone 6 Plus
- Home button haptic feedback is good
- you get 248GB usable space for a 256GB model, not too bad

I am using matte black while waiting to see if i have a chance to switch to jet black (if it is nicer).

For me, matte black looks good too ! Got that cool factor.

With the current currency exchange rate, you will never get a new iPhone below RM 3000 even before any mark up. Lowest model of RM 2600 are probably 5S time. Since iPhone 6 onward the cheapest is SGD 988 or 998 i cant remember

The 32GB iPhone 7 is approx. RM2980 after conversion.
If anyone want I can buy for you with a RM200 mark up tongue.gif

Is it a conversion from USD ? Try convert from SGD the nearer country ?

He knows Apple fans are review-proof. If they already plan to buy, doesn't matter how simple or complicated your review is. They will still buy.

Haha, i cant be bothered to write an essay for that especially i am busy to restore and explore the new phone.
