QUOTE(screwedpeep @ Aug 27 2018, 07:41 PM) Last year oct already launch. Depends on which batch msia is in. If maintain like last year, mid oct can already place pre order. I think last year was an exception because iPhone 8/8 Plus was not much different from previous generations hence many people in the tier 1 and tier 2 countries didn't upgrade hence Malaysia got the phones a little quicker since Apple had ample stocks. The iPhone X on the other hand didn't make it here till end November. Based on the new designs of the upcoming generation, I would predict November/December before it gets to Malaysia.

QUOTE(lowyatguy @ Aug 28 2018, 03:42 PM) As for touch ID, you will never know if Apple will be coming out with "on-screen touch ID" , rumors spread that some patent registration has been on going regarding this. https://www.lowyat.net/2018/168040/apple-pa...ner-technology/Imagine. Anywhere on your screen is a fingerprint sensor. How cool will that be

QUOTE(tsg_7 @ Sep 5 2018, 07:49 AM) Seriously, less than 10 days to go and now going to buy i8? Why not wait the new phone launch and definitely price will drop another 1 step. True. Unless you're buying a used unit out of urgency, now would be about the worst time to buy an iPhone. This post has been edited by attw: Sep 6 2018, 08:07 AM

Still wondering if I should take advantage of the battery replacement program by end of this year Wife's iPhone X is at 99% after 7 months. I'm also undecided if we wanna change it or not. QUOTE(tsg_7 @ Sep 7 2018, 12:53 PM) Yeah. Seriously dude, nowadays smart phone is more expensive that a tablet or laptop. Different gadgets for different needs lor.

QUOTE(tsg_7 @ Sep 9 2018, 07:41 AM) U mean iX Plus or name something like that? Lol. I see review and they said should be maintained like current price, USD999 since Apple already initiated to cost down their supply. Apparently it will be called the Xs Max https://www.gsmarena.com/cases_for_the_61in...-news-33155.php

QUOTE(lkoky @ Sep 13 2018, 08:03 AM) haha, the price cut so subtle... might as well wait for Xr Actually it's not that subtle if you compare with the official RRP. iPhone 8 Plus 64GB was launched at RM4,149 and then revised down to RM3,914 when GST was zero rated. Just that the street pricing has dropped ages ago
