I thought there are plenty of stock for 6s last year ?
I got mine on launch day itself without any booking . Walk in and buy no queue as well.

yea lol.. i bought my 6s just by walk in on the 2nd day release.. when ask the promoter, they still have plenty stocks.. i can choose any model, any colour, any storage for 6s at that time.. @ the gardens.

Running a youtube video with 0 volume at a quiet environment, will this be able to check the existence of the hiss?
*
yes. but im afraid u wont be able to hear the hiss upon testing.. it is impossible to have a quiet environment at the apple store..

Thanks. Mine will be delivered to house, so it will be okay.

By the way, for iphone..is there any imei no or anything that we can use to verify its authenticity?
*
1. serial on the phone should be the same as on the box.
2. check the serial no trough apple warranty site. the warranty should be exactly 1 year from the day u turn the phone on / activate the phone.
3. u can try this to check the imei from what country the phone is (idk if its reliable or not) - http://www.imeipro.info


QUOTE(nas @ Oct 9 2016, 12:01 PM)
Is there any official acknowledgement from Apple on the hissing sound from the phone?
*
i havent read any acknowledgement made from apple, but apple sg seems to accept any iphone with this hissing issue for warranty claim.

if we are going to queue, do we need to decide the colour while queuing in the line? or we can see the actual demo set first before deciding the colour? how is the purchase flow when queuing?

and what if a customer came by just to buy case for ip7 instead of the ip7 itself? need to queue also?

I believe so. During queing you will be asked what colour and they will give you a sticker or something indicate your colour. This allowed them to have the phone ready when it is your turn to pay. At least that is what I went through when buying iPad mini last time.
If buying case or browsing don't think need to queue ba.

Mostly, they will distribute Queue number an hour before you able to purchase... During that moment, you have to pick your storage size, color and etc. An hour later, you go in, proceed to payment and open the phone. So normally you do not have the chance to touch and feel the actual unit. (This is just my experience, 3 times at DIGI and 1 time at Switch)

how long do u have to wait before they serve u? if ur no 1, ofc ur gonna get first.. but if ur no is around 20 or 40-50 and the shop opens at 10am.. what would be estimated waiting time?

If no.1

Digi:
After you take your queue number you can go wherever you you like, the queue number got mention what time come back to purchase, mostly 2 to 4 person 30 minutes.

For iPhone 5, My number is 6x, my report time is 3.30am (number distribute at 11pm, and 12pm start selling), then iPhone 6 i get queue number 6, report time is 12.25am...

iPhone 6s, number 1, Report time is 11.30pm or 11.45pm i can't remember.

Switch:
They give you queue number, you won't feel like going anywhere. because you have to stay in the queue. No time mentioned. My estimation, if your number is 20++++ around 1 hours 15 minutes+?
If 40 to 50.. 2 hours+++ hahahahah
Digi is at midnight launching. Switch is at the store, follow their business hour on the morning. biggrin.gif
*
when u were queuing at switch, how long does the queue goes when the shop opens at 10am? less than 100 customers? or more? any limit qty per customer?

depend on which delivery company they used.

It said 1-3 business day. So I expecting next week. Like how I order my iPad last time. Weekend didn't count. Expected before Friday next week. Yeah. ✌🏼️

QUOTE(Criollo @ Oct 14 2016, 09:58 AM)
There will be an estimated delivery date stated in the email they sent you.

Most will be 20th-24th October but you can expect it to be earlier as Apple usually sets a safer delivery estimation.

(If you receive the phone earlier than stated you happy kan?  wub.gif )

From my past experience, Apple likes to use DHL.

Checked my Apple App, it is shipped.
UPS also.
ETA 19/10, look like we all same batch. Now in Changi.
Why they make such a big turn to China? Won't that not very cost efficient?
Receiving regular email notification. And the app also jump out to notify it is shipped.

got my 7+ JB & 7 matte black..
i can say that the 7 has no hissing at all.. 7+ have a little hissing while restoring backup & playing youtube videos. but u wont notice the noise unless you put your ear directly on the apple logo.. the sound is very minimal.. i wouldn't be able to hear it if i did not put my ear on the apple logo.. i can hear hissing while capturing video on ip7+ (only if i put ur ear on the apple logo).. same goes while playback, u wont be able to it unless you really really really focus 1000% to detect the hissing voice..

just to update u guys with the 1 day experience with the 7..

ip7 lasts around 18 hours with my normal daily routine.. around 6-8 hours of usage. Taking calls, checking emails, checking reminders, Facebook and whatsapp..

ip7+ lasts around 1 day 6 hours.. same usage as the ip7, with additional task - playing coc for around 3-4 hours, 2-3 hours youtube-ing, re-download a playlist for offline musics (apple music - around 400 songs) and 5-6 hours playing music over bluetooth headphone.

my caudabe case still on its way.. its been 2 weeks since i ordered, but i still haven't receive the item yet.. so i had to use it with apple case (navy blue) without any wrap on it..

overall,
- kinda like the new "home button". awkward at first but it gets better as we use it.
- the haptic feedback feels different compare to the 6s. i just love it. it makes the device more alive.
- i think i love the 7 plus over the 7.. i just love the jet black finishes compare to the matte black..
