QUOTE(attw @ Nov 17 2017, 07:40 AM) High prices will never deter the true blue ifags. Die die must buy. Thats why I see many asking for installments for the phone. QUOTE(attw @ Nov 17 2017, 07:45 AM) Did I miss anything? Anyway, the cart coupon is rm400 but the seller marked up the RRP for another rm200 to rm300. First time I see this kind of deals / dealer.

QUOTE(attw @ Nov 17 2017, 08:57 AM) Ya, I’ve tried EMUI and hated it, you’re right about that, ha ha. Majority of android users will dislike EMUI. So how? Anyways, let’s see. Not yet play with the real thing yet - frog under coconut shell. Machines preorder and midnight collection on the 24? Can yumcha at MV while waiting for collection to start at 12am.

QUOTE(yvonnesoo @ Nov 17 2017, 10:52 AM) so many people buy it online.. so you guys will open & check the condition of the phone on spot when the dispatch arrive? wonder if found any issue, can we don't want to accept or sign.. hahaha No.. you have to sign acceptance before you take delivery of the package and before opening it.I have checked with Celcom, you cant buy without contract. Mind pointing me to the link? |

QUOTE(yvonnesoo @ Nov 17 2017, 11:08 AM) here u go You cant ler. There are no options to buy without contract. https://www.store.celcom.com.my/store/preor...product=MDR5584 the drop down selection can choose without plan and can get rebate rm100 with CELCOMPROMO code. means need to sign acceptance first as per what TOMEI-R mentioned before open the package? don't think the delivery guy will have time to wait me to open and check. by that time probably he already leave after i sign the consignment note haha |

QUOTE(yvonnesoo @ Nov 17 2017, 11:27 AM) that's what i thought. but celcom provide this option that some people might back off from porting over. Porting out and in would take approximately 2 - 3 days if there are no issues with your account. I would suggest that you port in first before you make this purchase to alleviate the fear that they force you to use a new number for the package.there is an option that must select when one pre order and it show this indication.. * If you port-in fail, you will be using this number to replace the existing number. so for this clause.. one might have the percentage to get new number if got any issue during porting. this is what i dislike..eventhough i'm sure if i port in won't be any issue. but we won't know when bad days happened and suddenly i have to force to get a new number for 24 months.. oh my.. i rather don't want to take this risk This post has been edited by TOMEI-R: Nov 17 2017, 11:31 AM |

QUOTE(OKLY @ Nov 17 2017, 01:02 PM) A bigger version of the X should be coming next year but would it be worth it considering how much the X costs now? The next iteration of the Plus model of the Iphone X will definately hit the Rm7k mark. Question is, would it still be logical enough to buy it at that price then. By then, our X will be dated too. |

QUOTE(yupio @ Nov 17 2017, 02:23 PM) I believe otherwise...I think by next year, they would have streamlined the production process and improved output and yield plus they have gained the volume price of the raw materials....so the price of the X and X Plus will be lower. As much as I want to believe the simple theory of cost benefit analysis on the Iphone by Apple, but it didnt materialise from the Iphone 6 till the current generation of Iphone 8 spanning a time period of 4 years. In fact, each model increased in pricing for every new model of Iphone Apple came out with. This post has been edited by TOMEI-R: Nov 17 2017, 02:58 PM |

QUOTE(attw @ Nov 17 2017, 02:42 PM) I’m an Apple guy through and through, but 5k is pushing it. 7k is not a price I would pay, not even with telco subsidies Its actually close Rm6k for the 256 GB model already. (Rm5888). You and I both know better the price will definately be going up for next year's iteration of the Iphone like it did every single year. I would predict the Iphone IX to be around Rm6199 and the Plus size of the IX to be around Rm6799. Enthuasists will still be buying no doubt, but sales will definately dwindle. Like mentioned, Apple does no longer enjoy the advantages it had over the androids in the yesteryears.This post has been edited by TOMEI-R: Nov 17 2017, 03:02 PM |

QUOTE(yupio @ Nov 17 2017, 03:11 PM) If this is really the case....I myself being Apple user since the 3GS era, might just drop out of the Apple ecosystem one day and opt for Android...the current price for ip X is already at an unbelieveable price this time around...if it is gonna go much higher, I just cannot justify it...the Android counterpart is improving year on year and come Android 8 or 9, it would have ironed out most issues to be almost as good as IOS already. Maybe we can stock up on NOS (new old stock) Iphone 7+ or Iphone 8+ QUOTE(attw @ Nov 17 2017, 03:14 PM) Ya, maybe it’s time to do what people do with iPhones. Keep them for 4 years minimum till iOS updates are no longer available for that model, ha ha. Anroid phones running on vanilla android are pretty good in this depertment already ie Pixel and Oneplus. Please dont compare using Samsung TW bro.And you’re right. Once Android figures out the idle battery drain, I may not turn back. This post has been edited by TOMEI-R: Nov 17 2017, 03:25 PM |

QUOTE(attw @ Nov 17 2017, 03:29 PM) Yeah, bought a Mi A1 during the 11.11 sale to test Vanilla Android (cheapest way to test, ha ha). Wish they put a 4000 mAh battery in that thing though, ha ha. No bro... Thought of buying from Techworld preorder. New dealer with limited ratings. Not sure if safe to proceed. So you’ve preordered with Machines KLCC already? QUOTE(yupio @ Nov 17 2017, 03:35 PM) Haha can the 7+ and 8+ really make profit? I have put my 7 128 and 7 + 256 up on sale...been reducing my price and yet no taker. No, you got me wrong. I meant stock up on the old Iphone 7+ or 8+ for future personal use so that you need not buy the new iphone next year. Also, I am seeing people selling the 8+ 256 at RM4k and no taker...thought the RRP was 4899 or something. Its getting harder to dispose used Iphones because of the price. Rm3k for a out of warranty Iphone 7+ would be a bit high no? Yes I understand that we bought the phones at very high prices new. But the fact is, would you buy a used phone at around Rm3k yourself? |

QUOTE(yupio @ Nov 17 2017, 03:59 PM) Well, I did not really try real hard to sell it...just trying my luck here..if I can't sell it, just keep it for spare like TOMEI-R said Already using bro... Lol, stock up for own use Yeah, true, it is indeed harder to sell use iPhones now that the price is so high...then if I keep buying iPhones every year, I might end up with a lot of iPhones in my drawer...my 6 Plus 64gb is still in my drawer somewhere and so is my 3GS lol. Been thinking long and hard whether to go for this iP X this time around....are you buying the X? QUOTE(PowerGadget @ Nov 17 2017, 04:02 PM) If you want to preorder online, then yes. If not you can walk in to their stores. |

QUOTE(PowerGadget @ Nov 17 2017, 04:16 PM) Digi because currently Im on Digi 80 plan and using i7 plus that bought from umobile last time due to Digi customer service told me that bundle device plan would be need credit card to guarantee, so debit would not be accepted. If you are still under contract, you are only allowed to upgrade to a more expensive plan and not otherwise.So wondering I can convert my Digi 80 to Digi 78 with iphone X 256GB? |
