Hello guys, which store is good place to buy iphone?

machine

telco

Machines and Mac city probably have the widest network, but I've read sometime back that Switch has the best services. Don't know, it's subjective I guess.

Exactly, some telcos are subsidizing more than RM2K from the phone original price.

Only those who are rich but not smart will buy from apple store / machine / switch and whatnot.

It's not that simple. Some prefer to go for lower tier plans to save on phone bills (rather than taking a higher plan for which they do not utilize just for the subsidized phone) or some are on existing contracts, etc.

Of course, there are those who can afford to just buy outright but that doesn't make them less smart either.

Best? Probably those authorized sellers but currently? Probably the shop that got the stock/spec u need 😄

Apple authorised resellers like Switch offers trade in program and accidental coverage plan. Both are only valid if you buy from them.

Machines

And if we compare those, then Switch's plan is cheaper compared to Machines

Switch's protection plan is only valid for one year, whereas Machines' extends the warranty period by another year, hence granting a total of 2 years. Correct me if I'm wrong

Not all wants to be tied on a 24mths contract, and not everyone has a clean plan without existing contract...

Yea, Machine extends another year but Switch's PP covers theft/burglary which is quite convenient if it were to happen *touchwood* Price difference is 400 bucks if I'm not mistaken. So if you take 2 years on Switch is almost the same as Machines but Machines offers free screen replacement which is better since you have a higher chance to crack your screen instead of a theft. Depends on what you think could happen to your phone

I personally went for the Machines Protection Plan because at the time, the possibility of being robbed wasn't something I had in mind. Instead, I was just insuring myself from future drops and other mishaps that could happen to my iPhone X

Yea I would've gone with the MPP as well. I have a higher chance of dropping my phone than getting mugged.

Ahh OK. Did not know that. Then it would be about the same.

Is it better to buy through apple authorised resellers like Machines, or go through official apple.com store ?

I just bought at mac city in front of lowyat plaza, their service is good , very satistied with them. thank you guys

Depends on the individual. Price is the same though.

apple store ship the device to you

authorized reseller you get to check your device upon payment (if there is ready store)

else price is the same
