nice rainbow and texture. is it hard case ?

Yup hard case. The texture feels like snake's skin

The machine clearance, what does ex demo means? Same as demo unit?
*
Used to be demo set, the one you test at the Machines store on the table. Imagine 12 hours continuous charging and people torture the device every day.
Then sell to you with that not-so-much discount. Of course some will have a warranty but the battery life and the torture, well, to each his own.

This time around, not so much discount compared with last year. Last year managed to get iPhone 6S for RM1599 and iPhone 6S+ for RM1849, both are 16GB variant. This year ex-demo for iPhone 7 series not much of a discount. Better buy 2nd hand rather than demo set. At least not continuous charging and less tortured than the demo.

Only big discount on Beats headphone/earpiece.

I'm not familiar with this process, but as long as the unit is under warranty, everything should be free right?

Of course, claim your warranty while possible.

The thing is, seems like the problem only appear when my hand is sweaty/sticky.
Even if I take it to service center, it's still have to proof it to them. Sorry, newbie in claiming warranty. Haha

Peel that glass off, get the normal SP or thinner glass. For me, I don't like to use any protector at all. Just case will do, if the phone will not heats up, I'd go naked for sure.

Rocking naked screen? So far no hairline scratches? Planning to rock my iP7+ without SP also, as mine just broke

Nope as long as you remember every time where you keep the phone especially in your pocket. Check the pocket first before putting the phone inside.
But mostly I just put it inside my bag as I always bring 3 phones when going out.

XOX is not compatible with iMessage and FaceTime. Only 4 major telcos in Malaysia support it.
So if want to use those services, use email. But the other person can only contact via iMessage and FaceTime if they have the person's email only.  smile.gif

Says who? Mine is okay. Just sent an imessage to check and it did arrived.

QUOTE(attw @ Jul 31 2017, 04:41 PM)
Anyone here on XOX? I bought a prepaid sim for my mother-in-law but can't seem to activate iMessage and FaceTime.

Maybe try again? What carrier shown on the top?

Ok that is weird. Because my friend use iPhone and have ONEXOX he cannot activate iMessage via telco. Only able to use email.
*
Ask him what carrier shown up at the top. Mine was easy setup, got a popup message said imessage need to send a sms to verify, I clicked OK. Check at the settings, both imessage and facetime registered after few seconds. No need to restart and all. Mine is iPhone SE with iOS 10.3.3. It should be the same with iPhone 7/+. Also tested on iPhone 5S with iOS 10.2, working normally.

Well it shows MY XOX as the carrier, but the phone number isn't being recognized for FaceTime and iMessage, keeps saying "Waiting For Activation" but nothing happens. Of course can FaceTime and send iMessage using the email address, that one no problem.

Oh, btw, iPhone 5S, running iOS 10.3.3

QUOTE(khainiz94 @ Aug 1 2017, 09:43 AM)
That is why I felt weird. I thought MVNO telcos cannot use iMessage. My friend said on the top it writes ONEXOX but cannot activate iMessage. So I conclude MVNO telcos cannot use iMessage via mobile no.
*
Do you manually choose the network or let it automatically set?
Mine is shown MY CELCOM, set it auto. But in my others xox numbers in Nokia 150, 3310 (2017) and G6, they shown XOX or MY XOX. All are auto.

Correction, It's showing MY ONEXOX on the operator bar. When I attempt a network search, Celcom doesn't appear. Just Maxis, U, DiGi and MY ONEXOX.

That's weird. I guess the only option is to call them.

You only want the box what... Not surprising.  tongue.gif

I cant backup my phone to my old Ip5 because its only 16GB only. sweat.gif

iPhone is the longest I own before sell it as they only have one per year. Android phones are too many to choose from. So have to let go at least 1 month of use then change to others.
Fastest phone that I buy and sell was Xperia XZ which only 2-3 days of used. Damn disappoint with it's camera laugh.gif

My iPhone 5S also 16GB, installed tweaks and essential apps, left me only 5GB. While System Partition only left 0.9%.

Xperia is always no good one. Use it previously and the camera is still bad. Even until today.
😂

But their XZ Premium is better, seen some improvement. Definitely will buy again in the future if the deal is good

Anyways, Mac City promotion always not good as Machines. I don't know what they're thinking. Like they don't want to clear stock for some reason. laugh.gif

Why I dare to say this. Because I use it previously and sadly the phone never changes. I use Xperia S and also Xperia Z3. Both of these phones disappoints me a lot.
Xperia S have screen problem which cause me to replace the screen 5 times. That does not include the shitty service they gave me when I bought the phone. And the phone also have a big problem with software. Lags and stutters too much. Camera is trash since I bought day one.
Then I gave another chance with Xperia Z3 and sold it after one month. That phone always overheat and camera is still trash as usual. Still cannot beat the camera from iPhone and don't have any fast capture. So dissatisfied with Sony now that I just don't want to touch their phone anymore.

Anyone bought electronic item from Amazon before? Plan to buy a new Bluetooth earphone for my i7.
Saw there is free shipping on Amazon for item more than $25, but there is shipping and handling fee even my item $25. Confusing.

Share the link. Free shipping only for US or Canada right? International shipping still need to pay.

Then I think is free shipping to US only.

Amazon.com is for US, so free shipping is only applicable for US residents only. There is other countries as well such as amazon.in for Indian residents. No Malaysia though.

August is never a good month to buy iPhones unless you get it for like 500 off retail price.
Ok lor, almost one year di ma, should be acceptable. Look at the S8+, barely six months and the price dropped so much.

Hopefully by the time it arrived here, the RM500 voucher still there. laugh.gif
