QUOTE(darrenboy @ May 21 2019, 04:37 PM) It's by "Apple Store", 4 star rating, 90% positive seller rating, 99% shipped on time. I was considering whether to buy from this Apple Store or, another trading co. from somewhere Selangor (but not Lazada, another online shopping) that only sells at RM2950, but it's imported unit. Slightly cheaper. Says it's unlocked and can be used by all sim. For RM49 difference I'd buy from Lazada. Bought my iPhone X from them last year as well at RM4788 for the 256GB one. |

QUOTE(darrenboy @ May 22 2019, 05:34 PM) Hi bro, thanks. Basically I can echo pretty much what bro kristiano said.I noted it comes with a flat charger, instead of the usual plug-in charger type. Does it hv a plug-in charger instead? Seems easier got me to carry a cable than a slightly bigger and clumsier flat charger? Other than this, what are the key features to be noted in iPhone 8 that’s different from the earlier models? Particularly these :- - it’s cover is glass? Do I still need to stick on the tempered glass, or the rubberised cover we can buy from the retail shops to protect it from breaking in falls? - what is it about the Touch ID button I hear people talk about? Not sure what’s so special. This feature is gone in iPhone X, right? - do you know how to use the AR (augmented reality) features? Feel a bit ketinggalan since it’s replaced by newer models now but I can’t afford those new ones. 😢 - The stock charger is a super slow 5W one and basically it comes in two part - an adapter and a cable. The cable will allow you to plug into your PC/Laptop to sync via iTunes or to backup your photos. If you want slightly faster charging, you can get an iPad 12W adapter around RM70-RM80, or if you need even faster charging, you could get a USB Type C PD adapter and a USB C to lightning cable separately. - Yes, it's front and back are made of glass to enable wireless charging. You can stick a tempered glass up front for protection and get a good case from any phone accessories shop to cover the back. Cases comes in all sorts of designs and can come as cheap as RM5 to as expensive as RM200, so you have ample choices. - Touch ID is basically Apple's fancy way of saying fingerprint reader. iPhone 8/8 Plus is the last iPhone to use this, thereafter Face ID (Apple's fancy way of saying facial recognition) replaces this in iPhone X, as you correctly put it. - Nope, personally never used AR before although I have tried the new Measure app. |

QUOTE(darrenboy @ May 22 2019, 09:39 PM) Thanks for both your answers. You can buy 3rd party ones as well, but stick to a few reputable brands like Tronsmart, Aukey and Anker.1. All those faster chargers you mentioned, are all of those Apple brand and must buy from Apple stores? By the way, the iPhone 8 256GB is going for 2,949 on Lazada today ![]() This post has been edited by attw: May 23 2019, 09:53 AM |

QUOTE(darrenboy @ May 23 2019, 04:22 PM) It’s the one I referred earlier that you just need to put on top of it. I saw photos of it - round disc shape. And it’s flat. It’s not supplied within the box. I thought you said it would. Or, have I been cheated? Oh you meant wireless charger? No, of course not. Those are all sold separately.I already felt cheated with the lower price 😭 I thought you meant this one which is included. |

QUOTE(realitec @ Jun 8 2019, 01:37 PM) Yes. It is 83%, not sure why mudah selling more than 2k though. Must be still under warranty. I bought that phone since november 2017. Some people still believe that iPhone has good resale value so they set prices that are quite surreal sometimes But we live in a free market, willing buyer, willing seller |

Ladies and gentlemen, this then is now the entry level iPhone: -
iPhone 8 64GB - RM2199 iPhone 8 128GB - RM2399 iPhone 8 Plus 64GB - RM2699 iPhone 8 Plus 128GB - RM2899 Seems to be a no-brainer to pay additional RM200 for twice the storage |

QUOTE(powerbarr @ Sep 12 2019, 07:38 AM) how long do you think apple will still provide softer updates for 8 / 8 plus? 6 is no longer supported right? Yes, 6 and 5S will not receive iOS 13.Theoretically the 8 should be good for another 3 years of update, with the 6S phasing out next year, and the 7 after that. So probably 2022 for the iPhone 8? Unless Apple kills support for both 6S and 7 at the same time! |

QUOTE(Zaryl @ Sep 12 2019, 10:21 PM) true this. Yeah, a colleague of mine has over 2000+ photos on his 4-year-old iPhone 6 Plus 64GB and he still has about 20GB remaining my ip8 plus only reaches like HALF of 64gb, or even lesser after a year plus of usage. i subscribed to icloud 50gb storage at rm3.90 per month which is quite a steal. my principle is that, if i do buy 256gb or greater storage, i will do it if i buy macbook pro or ipad pro. i don't see the point of having 256gb or greater iphone unless you take 4k videos in it a lot (main gear for videography) |
