QUOTE(OKLY @ Nov 17 2017, 05:32 PM) I feel that if you were to play with the phone on display at stores, you might be tempted to buy it. You’ll need to be using it on a daily basis for few days to be able to conclude. Yeah, have to own it for a week or two before can make a conclusion. Problem is the price is too steep to be buying and selling it almost immediately like I do with my Android phones, ha ha

QUOTE(Fjive @ Nov 17 2017, 11:42 PM) Just read about this, surprised about the 6.1" LCD model with much lower screen PPI. For comparison, iPhone 8's 4.7" screen has 326 PPI. [attachmentid=9348915] Source: KGI: Apple to Launch 6.5-Inch 'iPhone X Plus' and Lower-Priced 6.1-Inch Full-Screen LCD Model Next YearIt’s all merely speculation at this point. Long way to go before Sept 2018.

QUOTE(blurkia @ Nov 18 2017, 08:37 AM) finally migrated to ios! proud user of iphone 8 plus  . anyway, took me a while to figure out how to transfer my whatsapp to iphone via backuptrans software. It can be used on 3 devices, i used 1, anyone still wants? Help me share the cost, 20usd / 3. Just pay me that will do. thanks. Congrats and welcome on board! Suggest you list the BackupTrans license for sale in the Garage Sale. I do see a number of people who listed in and managed to find buyers.

QUOTE(realitec @ Nov 18 2017, 09:58 PM) Nope bro, planning to get 1 walk in. But Labuan is slow.. As if buy online, there is GST on device price. While when walk in, no GST charged to me  Ok, fair enough. Good luck bro!

QUOTE(realitec @ Nov 19 2017, 09:28 AM) Yes, there is fullfilled by lazada but 3699. 3699 still a good buy. Did you try and see if you get tax exemptions after keying in your mailing address?

QUOTE(realitec @ Nov 19 2017, 09:45 AM) Yes, i am exempted from GST. However, i did tried to call Lazada to verified, whether the price is correct. But they never return call to me. Not helpful Lazada. I rather pay it inclusive of GST, but there is not option, as my mailing address is in Labuan. I think fulfilled by Lazada should be OK. But better not risk it, maybe get your refund back first

QUOTE(realitec @ Nov 19 2017, 03:33 PM) Yes bro, you understand me.. Yes, the 8+ still out of stock here.. By the way i am using Digi.. and there 1 one shop selling higher price than Apple store, no idea what is the reason.. but now i know the refund is quite fast, worth a try again for store fullfilled by lazada.. Ya, fulfilled by Lazada one should be Ok, otherwise their reputation will suffer as an online platform.

QUOTE(solstice818 @ Nov 20 2017, 04:56 PM) Guys, I was told that 8+ is so much faster than 7+. Is that true? I am in dilemma whether to get 7+ (since the drop of price) or the 8+ (which tops up a couple of hundreds) Which one would you guys recommend? I think in normal day to day usage, there should not be a significant difference, however if you're going into AR apps then maybe the A11 Bionic chip would make a difference. Also, the 7 Plus does not have Portrait Lighting, not sure if that is important to you.

QUOTE(solstice818 @ Nov 20 2017, 08:18 PM) I am using android now. Want to convert The portrait is not important but the A11 Bionic is really tempting especially it seems to be outperforming most (if not all) phones out there. But not sure 64GB enough or not. normally, you all buy 256gb? If you don’t do much photography, videography or heavy gaming, 64GB should be sufficient for most.

QUOTE(solstice818 @ Nov 20 2017, 09:45 PM) Thanks for the help! Really appreciate it. Last question, cheapest is through Telco or Lazada? Any recommendation? Telco would be cheaper if you don't mind signing a contract.

QUOTE(solstice818 @ Nov 20 2017, 10:14 PM) Thanks. You guys are so helpful. Will report in when I get my own iphone. Yes, I heard the speaker is 30% louder? Thanks again for answering my question  Yes, the speakers on the 8 Plus are 30% louder than the 7 Plus, but the 7 Plus speakers are already louder than average phones out there so unless you're always in a noisy environment (or you love to blast your music out loud), the 7 Plus speakers are good enough. That said, if you're signing a telco contract to be tied for two years I would recommend going for the 8 Plus instead  Yes, do let us know once you got your phone! Cheers!
