I think you would be the first one I came across who thinks the battery life of the X is much better than the 7+. Everyone else thinks it's comparable or slightly worse.

really? mine is really good....better than my 7+ for sure
maybe my 7+ battery already weak....

As A11 is power efficiency. I believe the X battery is slightly better than 7+ though. As if your 7+ already use for so long, the battery life will definitely decrease.

btw i cant stand the true tone - in the end, turned off

Ya, could be your battery degraded a bit, I guess. One bro says his 7+ battery better than his X, right TOMEI-R?
Actually I had no idea how yellowish true-tone is till I put the X display unit beside a 7 Plus at a Machines outlet - it really is night and day, ha ha.. Probably good for those who don't like blue light.

Yea agreed on the true-tone points. Did you got your X? Or still waiting for next year bro.

Will be in Singapore for Christmas and going in by flight, which means I can claim GST refunds so the X will probably cost me 4.5-4.6k if I decide to get one there, but lets see. If I don't, then I'll probably hunt down a used 7 or 8 Plus when I get back here and wait for the next gen iPhone at the end of next year

Woah. You don't need a used 7 or 8 Plus. As you already having a 7 plus right? And 8 Plus for your wife. Next generation of X would be better. Avoid the 1st generation, but still the 1st generation is gorgeous.

No bro, I sold off my 7 Plus two weeks ago

why you didnt buy from Lazada/Tesco when it was going for Rm47xx?
how much did you get for your 7+? what size is it?

Oh IC. Believe you sold it for a good price. Try to hunt 1 8+ Couple phone with your wife lu. Sweet sweet love ma. X is really expensive. Seems premium than 8 plus. But its all about value.

hows my new case? its the most acceptable one for me at the moment - i hate cases

It was the Red edition 7 Plus bro, 128GB, maybe about 6 months old. Sold it at RM2.9k, which in my opinion was pretty reasonable

No, didn't get it during 12.12 because I thought I would like to have a buying experience at a physical Apple Store - which is lame, I know
See above

Yeah, the 8+ price got down as low as 3599 at Lazada during 12.12 but now it's back up to 3,698 which is still acceptable, but out of stock Anyways, I've already tried the 8 Plus before handing it over to my wife and honestly, the experience is not much different from the 7 Plus.

At first I thought first few days sure I will press the "missing home button" but not once since changing from iPhone 7+ did I hit the missing home button. I surprised myself

I do hate how to close all apps though - so retarded. Takes too long. Got to hold, got to repress again....sigh. Hope they change this retarded move

The unlock needs to swipe is another retarded move by Apple. Why cant we have an option to straight open home screen instead of need to swipe?

Battery life is so much better than my 7+. GPS lock is fast on mine

I am liking the glass design but this is the first iphone I am using a case and I hate cases. Previous iphones I use naked.

Going to Japan next year and thinking of grabbing a unit there. Apart from the shutter sound, can I get an unlocked unit?
