Ahhh, can you give me some advice? To upgrade or not to upgrade?

Upgrading from the ip6 will definitely worth the investment especially 2 processors up.

izzit good change from s7edge to ip8 plus?
*
It depends what your priorities are. For me I want a phone whice is reliable, easy to use & maintain. Obviously an adroid offers many more functions than an iPhone, but I am not a developer or hardcore user but a just a normal user so a user friendly smartphone is what I am after. Both platforms have their pros and cons. In my household I have both types but i am prone to apple.

just got my iphone 8+ last night

after that only realise if I "ön" true tone..the screen become yellowish....@_@

not sure if my screen faulty or what...

so far battery so good....slightly better then my old iphone 5
2nd thing is my old iphone 5 got apps...how do I transfer the apps to my iphone 8+ ? through itune backup? please help
*
Are both phones having the same apple id? If yes, then all you need to do is to do a full backup of the iphone 5 in the latest iTunes. Make sure that you pick the backup with password option. What this does is it also backs up all the logins and passwords too. When thats finished, put in the ip8 and then at the main page of itunes, do a restore and pick the ip5 backup. You will be prompted for a password to proceed. Then starts the restore. All the data, settings, photos and apps etc will be put on the new ip8. When It has finished installing the files. Let the phone download all the latest versions of the apps. Its completed when all icons are no longer grayed out.

For the screen brightness, settings>general>accessibility>display accomodations>auto brightness - un tick this button. Then go into colour filters. Here can adjust the colour tint from all three prime colour to your liking. Tick the colour tint, play around with the intensity, you can see the difference.

Up front payment is upfront amount that you'll have to pay. Your monthly bill will be deducted from this upfront payment for the next few months until it turns 0.
Why they do that? Because the iphone device is subsidized, it is to prevent any losses if someone pays for it and not pay monthly fees for the subsequent months.
This is the way telcos minimize the risk of people defaulting or people who plan to default once they get the subsidized phone.
*
Bro, meaning at the Celcom store, to get the phone then need to pay the upfront $$$$. What about the device $$$$? Is this spread over the 24 months contract?

You'll need to pay Phone price +upfront price.

Monthly fees will be deducted form the upfront price until it turns 0.

Phone price is NOT paid by installment, it is 1 time payment although you can convert it to installment on the credit card side.

Alright, understood. I wanted to compare with Maxis package. Thanks

Yes celcom subsidize the price BUT ties you to a contract for 24 months.
No free lunches.

This contract is the worrying part. If we default, can Celcom block the phone?

Reason I asked is that I want to gift the phone but keep the line. So maybe sometime in the near future may just stop subscribing.

Yup, shouldn't be doing this sort of thing. Just wanted to know the options. He he.

Like under Maxis, they block the phone who defaults on the contract, but then again with zerolution no heavy initial payments.

Bcos Zerolution/NewPhone comes with Device protection!

As I understand it, Celcom's EasyPhone also comes with Device protection but the contract is 2 years and no change of device or plans is allowed. Bummer.
*
Zero's device protection not free wooh, and personally I'd take on the apple care any day.
