QUOTE(attw @ Dec 1 2017, 08:04 AM) Still on the fence, but leaning more towards getting it. If the Ringgit continues to strengthen in the next few weeks then I’ll have an additional reason to do so  Do you miss the Touch ID at all, or have you gotten used to Face ID? Don’t think apple will reduce the price fast enough. If yes, I also wanna buy another phone. I was hoping no one would ask.  I didn’t even use Touch ID previously. I was curious about Face ID. So finding it works really well is great. |

QUOTE(attw @ Dec 1 2017, 09:45 AM) No, Apple won’t reduce prices, but it’ll be cheaper when I’m in Singapore come this month end (3.03 today vs 3.12 two weeks ago). Also there’s a 1% cash back on overseas spend from my credit card, so let’s see  Ah, ok. Got it. I may defer my SG trip to next year. One of the reasons to go was to get the X if here didn’t launch it yet. |

QUOTE(attw @ Dec 1 2017, 01:33 PM) Wait, what? You don’t use Touch ID? Which means all the while you just use a pin lock or something? Yeah, water and sweat are the biggest enemy of Touch ID Yeah, never used TouchID. No security at all. I should but I didn’t. Rectifying it now with the X. |

QUOTE(gomes. @ Dec 1 2017, 11:55 PM) 1. Any locations in KL/Selangor with walk-in stock for Iphone X? 2. If I buy online through apple.com iphone store, they say free shipping. But how will they ship to me? By Fedex or ? For your second question, if stock is available in SG, Apple will ship via Dhl. If stock from China, then will use UPS. In my case, I got DHL. |

Updated to iOS 11.2 yesterday. So far it’s ok. Not much difference.
Changed my wallpaper to the sea green scenery. Looks great. Hehe.

QUOTE(realitec @ Dec 3 2017, 08:25 PM) Any enhancement on the battery? Less battery drainage. But I turned off some notification for yahoo mail and google maps apps. I think the yahoo app was the main cause of it since I just installed it. |

QUOTE(attw @ Dec 4 2017, 08:13 AM) I thought it was better to have an all black wallpaper to conserve energy and save battery? Hehe Is it? Prefer the seascapes scenery. Makes me smile when I look at it. The colors are so vivid. I was trying to identify the “more than usual” battery drainage. Still playing around with the settings. |

QUOTE(attw @ Dec 4 2017, 09:11 AM) The theory is that AMOLED pixels are turned off when black, hence conserving power. However, the difference is not that significant, as per this article. Ah, ok. Erm, prefer some colors on my screen. After all, my X is already space grey and my casing black. Not too worried about the battery usage for the screen. Hoda sp still fine on my phone. I’m using a flip case; so the case actually provides extra protection if I put my X in my handbag. |

QUOTE(attw @ Dec 9 2017, 09:05 AM) Yeah, tempting. Can see some second hand listings of 4.6k already already compared to the 7k listings previously Sold the limited edition red 128GB 7 Plus @ 2.9k, but included some other stuffs which I listed and haven’t been able to sell so it’s a win win for both the buyer and myself Well, technically I don’t have the 8 Plus anymore coz already passed it to my wife. That’s why I’m contemplating to get an X or just get another 8 Plus first and wait and see. Good deal. Yeah, once you’re in SG, you can decide. |

QUOTE(dikae @ Dec 9 2017, 05:01 PM) Decide now, grab when he is in sg Haha. Good idea. I think better have two different phones. Makes it more interesting. My gestures / swipes for the X, I end up doing the same the the i7+ (passed this phone to my mom). So fast forget about the Touch ID button. |
