Wow, about 2 weeks already right?

Yeah. I delayed a bit coz I wanted the delivery to be done at home when I'm clearing my leave.

How about you? Decided which black and storage?

Should be just Black and 32GB. Seriously think 128GB will be overkill for me based on my history and usage patterns.

Sounds good. I was undecided but went for 128GB anyway.

Actually Silver suddenly looks more appealing to me coz of the distinctive metallic ring around the Touch ID smile.gif

I've never owned silver color before. Most shop display the matte black and jet black. You're getting silver then?

I kinda prefer the white front compared to the black front but since the rage is all about black and jet black for the 7, I thought it'd be nice to own a black one for a change (I've never owned a Space Grey iPhone, mine has always been silver or gold). Anyways, I think for now it'd be either silver or black, either would be fine for me. Bored of gold since I had it for 6 Plus and 6S Plus biggrin.gif

Hope you get your phone soon. Looks like it will be a while before stocks are readily available.

I've only been checking Harvey Norman's online system so far, whereby you click on "Find In Store" for the product. It's quite accurate in the morning, I've found several 32GB ones already but am holding on for the 128GB smile.gif

Remember to check your available storage when you power up your phone ya smile.gif

You've decided on 128GB?

I'm still waiting for my item to be shipped. hmm.gif

Finally took the plunge and bought a 32GB 7 Plus from a forumer. If I have to upgrade the storage later I'll pass this one to my wife. I think I'm the first one in the owners listing with a second hand phone, ha ha...

Congrats. Finally, you bought. Matte black?

4-5 weeks waiting period. But still earlier than the estimated shiptment time. I wonder if they ship from china or direct from Singapore this time.

Yes, 4.5 weeks of waiting. I guess it's ok since I'm not rushing. I already got a buyer for my i6s+ who is also not in a rush.

QUOTE(TOMEI-R @ Nov 15 2016, 10:48 PM)
You can track your shipment to see if it comes from China.

*
It's still in the same status as yesterday. Let's see.

Now, have to survey on getting sp and maybe another case. laugh.gif

Yup. Been looking around. Don't want to spend a lot though.

The 6S+ case cannot be used on the 7+. Get a 7S + specific glass SP for goodness sake.  laugh.gif

I already bought a flip case for i7+. Now looking for a sp and another case (non flip). smile.gif

Btw, my phone pickup from China by dhl express.

No idea. Digi tracking says its 'partially' shipped whatever that means.

. Im more relieved that I've got my order in partly due to the dwindling ringgit and fear of not getting thephone until next year.
*
Yeah, there is the fear of myr weakening further. I'm glad to have made the purchase too. Did you buy the 128gb?

Quite surprising..  Its been quite a while since launch,  still not enough stocks.  hmm.gif
Agree to that.  Wasted the 7 Plus.  whistling.gif laugh.gif
*
I notice the iPhones without the "s" usually not enough stock. The last time I bought i6+ was in Jan 2015 from Maxis after constantly monitoring their stocks.

QUOTE(GamersFamilia @ Nov 16 2016, 10:38 PM)
good time to buy now , cuz myr keep on dropping

Yeah, no regrets buying now.

Very likely. 4.40 and rising

You reckon the MYR will keep weakening? Hope next year iPhone 8 prices won't go up like crazy.

QUOTE(aztechx @ Nov 16 2016, 11:05 PM)
Yup got myself the 128gb. This phone definitely for the long term. Until ip 10 perhaps. My current phone is a 4s that contributes 20% of my daily stress.  puke.gif
Oopss..i just bought the liquid armor hoping it had a rubbery grippy feel sad.gif

Then you made the right choice. smile.gif

How is the liquid armor?

Have not received it yet, ordered from Lelong.my. Will give a short comment once i receive the casing. and the phone of course.  tongue.gif

QUOTE(attw @ Nov 17 2016, 08:25 AM)
My take on the liquid armor: -

Pros: -
1. Very slim and sleek. Fits comfortably in the hand
2. The textured back feels very nice and Comfortable
3. Price is not expensive - I bought it for RM65 including shipping

Cons: -
1. Somehow feels more fragile than the Otterbox cases I am so used to previously
2. The side grip is a little slippery, if you're not careful it could slip off your hands
3. Because of the slim profile, I'm guessing it won't fit with a full coverage tempered glass

*
I think I'll skip this casing. If it's too slim, then I'm scared I'll drop the phone which only protects the corners with the air cushion thingy. Will probably go for ultra hybrid instead.

QUOTE(TOMEI-R @ Nov 17 2016, 08:03 AM)
Yeah man.  Christmas is coming too. Demand will sure go up.
Provided there are stocks for it.

If order now, should be fine. smile.gif

Reporting in i7+ 128gb matte black user. biggrin.gif

Arrived today, put on cheap sp and not so cheap flip case. So far so good. The phone is a bit heavier than my i6s+ (combination of phone n case).

wow congrats! where did you get it from? how long did you have to wait? what flip case did you go? share drills please!

From apple online store. Waited 4-5 weeks. Slowest waiting time ever. Flip case from viva Madrid. It's ok but kinda smooth texture; so have to be a bit more careful when holding the phone.

Photos shown in the accessories thread.
