Yes! I booked it, Gold! I should go today. But I work till 5.30pm. I can go out early thought, but thinking of my Credit Card statement date is today, why don't wait for tomorrow and pay 49 days later smile.gif

I think if you swipe this evening it’ll still be posted tomorrow or so. But anyways, just go tomorrow will be fine. Glad it worked out for you at last after the Juara ICT fiasco biggrin.gif

Seriously? Does Credit Card works that way? I am new to it, this is the first year having credit card. But still taking plan is worth than getting the device itself. As Maxis subsidies the device price, and I just pay the remaining device price + internet plan that i used to pay every month.

Lets say if my Citibank Credit Card Statement day is on tomorrow, if i swipe tomorrow, it will be posted on the day after tomorrow? Wooah?!
*
Well, depending on the merchant and also the timing that you swiped the card. Here’s an example of mine, some cases you see the transaction date and the posting date is the same, other times there’s a one to two days delay.

I personally like the glass back. Feels so much more premium and the added weight makes it feel substantial

But glass is more fragile so a case is essential.

Anyone else using tempered glass others than Hoda? Does it affect the front camera?
After some time, i think hoda is really making the quality of the front camera really bad. Pic getting more and more diffracted.
*
There's a cut out hole for the front camera lens, not sure how that affects your pic quality from the front camera?

Does yours scratch easily at the back? The case I mean. I used this on my S6 previously and the back looks like a lion (not Zlatan) mauled it. sad.gif

Ha ha, nice Zlatan reference!

So mostly all iphone 8 and 8 plus comes with good condition? I am afraid i stepped out Maxis, only realised the problems.
*
I think the most you could do when you get the phone is check for physical defect, beyond that if you have a problem, the maxis dealer won't be able to do much.

No Choice, had to change my 6s+ because it died yesterday.....My Iphone 8 Plus is only 1 day old. I must say the battery life is quite amazing....compared to my 6s+

Fully charged 9am this morning...been using as personal hotspot, whatsapp, FB, waze (for 30 mins) and etc....

at 4.21pm ... i am still at 47%...

Usage : 4h 47m
Standby : 7h 24min
p/s : chinaman like me, not willing to spend extra RM1k for IP X  smile.gif
*
You can expect the battery life to get better in the next few weeks. I’m at 55% now,

Usage: 4 hrs 1 min
Standby: 17 hrs 44 mins

Upon choosing the iPhone 8+, i saved RM900 for not getting the X.. With this RM900,maybe i can invest heavily on  the below:
1) Apple watch (top up few hundreds)
2) Fast charging charger + Wireless charger + screen protector + casing
3) return ticket to Taiwan? Bangkok? smile.gif

That’s one way of seeing it biggrin.gif

Im getting this, 8 Plus on iOS 11.1. Is it normal? And i only use LTE all the time. Because i see many people get minimum 9 hours of usage. Im worried that my battery is defect
*
Based on your usage, it does seem rather high but then again I don't play games with my phone so it could be OK or acceptable. Do monitor it and see if it's consistently like that.

First battery life status of my new iPhone 8 plus:
Usage = 6h 38m
Standby = 25h 5m

32% left (not in low power mode)

Should I charge my phone now?
*
Yes you can. It's not a good practice to keep draining it down to bare minimum before charging biggrin.gif

Sometimes new battery need to "run-in" before they are able to operate at their optimum. It would just take a few charging to optimise it. How along have you used it? They are some reports of poor battery performance after some iPhone upgraded to iOS 11 but I'm not sure whether it applies to iPhone 8.
*
Yup. Applies to all battteries. Usually optimum after few charge cycles.

Errrm is there a reason why everyone is calling the space grey black???  As far as I know there is no black but yes the space grey is blacker than the space grey of old.

And yes I got the "black" one too smile.gif
*
Maybe also because of the previous iPhone 7 - Black and Jet Black smile.gif
