Haha I think from now on every years new iPhone will carry the tag of being 'so expensive'..

As a wise fellow forumer puts it, if it’s cheap, it isn’t an iPhone biggrin.gif

Using black wallpaper (should help a bit with battery life I think) but the X iconic lock screen as shown in the retail box.

Battery now at 4%

using normal wallpaper dont have black at all lol

Yeah, I think the general advice for AMOLED displays is that using black wallpapers and dark themes help conserve battery life, but I've tried it on my previous S8+ and Galaxy Note 8, and there was very little difference between using normal wallpapers and themes vs darker/black ones.

HEIF/HEVC is the latest format so compatibility is going to be an issue. JPEG is still the best when used with 256GB lol. Whatever format doesn't matters when share on social media.

I took a lot of pictures when I was overseas but back and a month later my camera has been inactive. Seriously I have been thinking what should I be snapping on in my daily life.

Actually photos are very easily transferred or backed up to a PC so even taking many shots with a 64GB should not be a problem just takes the little effort in doing the transfer/backing up. smile.gif

And it seems like the phone is sold out everywhere, no idea where else to get...

Really? I thought got plenty of stocks. Where is your location?

QUOTE(nickywan123 @ Nov 27 2017, 09:12 AM)
Any idea where to get iphone x case and screen protector? I know machines do sell some which is super pricey.
*
It depends. If you don't care for the branded ones, I believe most phone accessories shop like novacell and all that should have cheaper ones.

My location is KL /Selangor , I went to Machines in Genting, say sold out and pre-order sold out.
Any idea where?
As for the protectors and cases, I don't really care for branded one as long as it can offer maximum protection for the phone. Not too pricey and too cheap .
*
Are you looking for a specific storage and color?

I am open to any color and brand to be honest. But I know there is this brand called Spigen which is specialized for iphone cases. What about screen protector, how many types are there?

QUOTE(nickywan123 @ Nov 27 2017, 12:56 PM)
Should I get 64gb or wait for 256gb restock? Do i really need 256gb>?
*
Ha ha, yeah, I meant phone color and storage, not accessories smile.gif

Whether or not you need 256GB depends on your usage pattern and also on how long you plan to keep the phone.

For now, I am aiming for space gray and 64GB, since 256GB are all sold out. Maybe if got stock then 256GB space gray.

I am using iphone 5s for almost 5 years and it's only 32GB and still have 1-2GB left lol. That's why I am considering 256GB . I plan to invest X for at least 5 years usage.
*
Yeah, for 5 years usage, probably better to go for 256GB.

Well too bad 256GB all sold out for now. I am surprised many people bought 256GB over 64GB considering Iphone X itself already so expensive  ohmy.gif .

Either that or they bring in very little stock.

If you’re not signing a telco plan why not order from a Apple Online? Saves the hassle from hunting around.

Apple online got stock? I checked last night, can order but have to wait 1-2weeks for shipping. I think they bring in from singapore one.  How long is the warranty do you know?

Do you have X already? How was it?
*
1-2 weeks shipping is OK, I noticed everyone is getting it earlier than the ETA smile.gif Warranty is same for all, one year from the date of activation.

Nope, currently using 8 Plus.

Yes, I don't have much confidence in their sealing on their back lens. But they won't affect the pictures taken, so that is the positive side lol

QUOTE(dikae @ Nov 27 2017, 04:47 PM)
as long as it doesn't affect the image quality I guess its ok...
*
Ya, if it’s barely noticeable and doesn’t affect the photos taken it shouldn’t be too bad. But then again it’s a RM5k (above) phone.

Anyway, Hoda is a great SP. I used is for my 7 Plus...very smooth, very clear, very oil resistant and very very easy to wipe off smudges...just a few wipes on my chest...then it is clear again...

*
Yup, using Hoda for my iPhone 8 Plus and wife also using for her 7 Plus. It’s expensive but quality is very good thus far.

Im trying this below after a recommendation by the shop. Previously I was on the Hoda full coverage TG on my 64gb. I find the build quality a bit better and smoother than the Hoda one.

Any retail shops carry it? For something at that price range I'd rather have someone else install it for me rather than risk screwing up the installation, ha ha...

Yes, some Apple resellers do carry it. Its very easy to install though. I watched them do it and it took less than 2 mins. It is the seal sticking and healing type. Just need to align properly.

Hey.. So you have finally succumbed to temptation. 64gb or 256? Congrats!  rclxms.gif

Not yet la, ha ha ha... Want to dispose of my wife's 7 Plus first. My target is still Singapore in December. Apple Store buying experience biggrin.gif
