why grey color always dont have stock?

Cause majority seem to prefer Space Grey over the other two colors, possibly for the black front.

How long it would take for you to escape from maxis?
I scared when celcom here restock and i still cant port out means im not eligible for their plan.

Then need to wait restock again awwch
*
I didn't escape maxis, bro. Have tried Celcom, DiGi and even U in the past, and they all suck as far as my location is concerned. So I signed with maxis again for the 8 Plus.

FYI. Maxis sunway pyramid has 8 plus 64 gb for space Grey and rose gold. 256 gb all sold out.

Ip8 got 256 gb all colors.
*
Maxis seem to be out of Silver for the 8 Plus in store. There are limited quantities available for online ordering. Gold and Space Grey units seem to be available at most branches.

For Mac City, you can get 0% EPP with purchase of iPhone 8 and a leather cover. See their FB page.

Got a call from Maxis telesales promoting iPhone 8 64GB for existing subscribers of 188 MOP (but my contract has ended)... in which I don’t need to pay the advance device, straight up RM1,970 before tax without the RM954 advance ohmy.gif

Anyone else got this same exact call? Sounds too good to be true but I confirmed it with Maxis live chat.
*
Maxis usually waives advance payment for existing subscribers who have been with them for more than a year. Therefore what they are offering you is pretty standard. So if you really do use that much data monthly or if you’re like me and unlikely to be leaving maxis then it’s alright to accept their offer.

That’s good to hear. Afraid that it was a scam initially. I was actually thinking of leaving Maxis and convert to Celcom as I use more Wi-Fi than data and Celcom has many cheaper contracts... but now that I think about it, Celcom’s coverage can be weaker compared to Maxis based on people’s feedback. I’ve been using Maxis for 15 years. Oh what the heck, I’ll go for the promo biggrin.gif

I still haven’t forgiven Apple for removing the Rose Gold colour and headphone jack.. but wireless charging, glass back and faster chip, here I come!
*
Yeah, that's the reason I keep signing on with maxis, coz they have the better coverage where I live, work and play. What you could do is sign a cheaper plan, say MOP128 or MOP158. The price difference of the phone between the three plans is quite insignificant (only RM180+GST) compared to the additional commitment over a 2 year period.

annoyed that ppl are selling iPhone 7 casing for iPhone 8 (plus version as well) since both fits. vmad.gif

however, be warned if the back has a round hole cutout (for the logo).. the Apple logo won't match for iPhone 8 when using an iPhone 7 case (same with Plus) - end up very ugly! And also iPhone 8 is slightly thicker so will end up the case might bulge or has less protection at the front! Better check properly!  doh.gif

just start manufacturing new iPhone 8 / Plus specific cases already.. there's a large market for them now aduhai..  doh.gif
*
Am using a 7 Plus case for the 8 Plus and you’re right, there is a minuscule difference in dimensions between the two phones and some may be more difficult to insert in and remove, like my current Spigen Crystal Hybrid. It’s a very tight fit for the 8 Plus.

Choosing between note 8 and ip8, functionality of note is greater than iPhone 8? Hardware capability is not the 1st priority

Budget around 3k
*
If you're not invested in the iOS ecosystem then there's a lot of flagship Android phones that can be bought with that budget. I have tried the S8, S8+, HTC U11 and Note 8 and they are all more or less equal in terms of performance with not much difference between them except for looks and certain functionalities. However if you'd like to have an iPhone, then I'd suggest you go for the iPhone 7 over the iPhone 8. Almost similar capabilities and fits your budget.

been using iPhone 6 user for nearly 2 years and the battery condition is still good. the only issue is the speed is slow. so I guess is time to change a new one for these coming 2 years. Ip7 is good but the price is almost the same with ip8
*
iPhone 7 starts at RM2749 for 32GB and iPhone 8 at RM3,649 for 64GB. I'd hardly call the price "almost same" - RM900 difference biggrin.gif

I think that's exactly Apple pricing will be sweat.gif an arm or a leg.

Even AirPod is already an arm

Yeah, that is true. Anyways, wireless charging is not essential for me, it’s a nice to have, but I’m fine charging my phone the conventional way using cables.

Surprised that telcos are facing stock issues on the 8 Plus. Availability for retail outlets is OK. They forecasted lower than usual?

I think currently most of the case are recycled from Iphone 7+, even the premium one like Spiegen.
*
True. These manufacturers shouldn’t just claim the case for the 7 Plus is compatible with 8 Plus as the dimensions are slightly different and some precise cut cases would be quite difficult to insert in and remove.

And i checked most of the telco online store, they dont have stock shortage issue, why only their center having issue?  Very funny

Could be the centres don’t hold stock, but if you order online then the telcos directly order from the distributor for you.
