Note 5 dimensions = 153.2 x 76.1 x 7.6 mm (taller and wider but thinner than ip-x)

iPhone 8+ dimensions = 158.4 x 78.1 x 7.5 mm (taller and wider but thinner than ip-x and note5)

If not mistaken, Apple CarPlay only supports Apple's native Maps App, which is rubbish. Not sure if that has changed though.

Used it on my Civic. No difference than iPhone 6 Plus on iOS11, and most importantly, still no Waze. Still prefer to use my Mate 9 Pro for Android Auto & Waze on the Civic.

My main music player is Apple Music, so I do miss the vast music playlist that I have on my iPhone, but I value Waze most. Siri, calling, interface, I prefer CarPlay better actually. It's just that the lack of Waze is putting me off CarPlay entirely.

Hey guys just got my X yesterday at BlueCube NU Sentral

If anyone looking for one I suggest to go there walk in

Then ask few different staff in there I’m sure they have 1.

Celcom policy are kinda sucks but just give it a try and keep on asking as they can’t reserve it for too long.

Anyone bought Rhinoshield Mod case/bumper?

I personally find it worse than my iPhone 5s.

iPhone X A11 Bionic processor has high efficiency-low powered core, and when the screen is locked, the iPhone turned into low powered mode, and this causes jaggy-ness when scrolling the Spotify playlist.

You will notice it is very smooth when scrolling the Spotify when the screen is on; But once locked and dimmed, the scrolling became noticeably lessresponsive.

I believe iPhone 7 also suffered the same fate, as it also featured low powered cores in its A10 processor.

I am not sure if this is Carplay issue or Spotify issue, heck, it could even be my car head-unit issue. I hope this will get fixed eventually, possibly with an iOS firmware update, but as of right now, it is worse than my old 5s.

On the bright side, Jailbreak for iPhone X with iOS version less than 11.2 is imminent. With the new OLED screen, I think we can easily have a tweak that can fully dim the screen, without locking the device, and work around this problem.

If you're on version less than 11.2 ( ie. 11.1.2, 11.1, 11.0.1 ), stay there and refrain from updating to the latest 11.2, as jailbreak for those version are coming anytime soon.

As I once mentioned in the Civic discussion thread, you can get Waze (or any other app) to run with jailbreak tweak smile.gif

Agree. I value waze the most too. As for music, I only enjoy them most when I’m not the driver. So, I think it’s still ok for me. I’d be interested to try out Siri and calling but I doubt I’ll use them often.

however when im midst of setup apple id, it requesting to approve that device from another apple device that i have.

i took me almost 1 hour to figure it out since i dont use icloud since ip5s.

is this something new in ipx  hmm.gif

but then, now everything ok  biggrin.gif
feels little bit diff, slightly heavier compared previous model.

this is normal when u login to new device with existing apple id.
this is actually double protection for u in case someone login ur apple id without u aware.

i think since ios10 already got this, its depends whether u have update the password protection. sorry can't recall the correct term.

You can get SP from anywhere. Depends you want a TG type of the silicone plastic type.

Is the Pylo better than the Plasma? I know it's lighter and less bulky right? Any reason you're not using it yet, e.g. can't fit it with the tempered glass?

At first, without the home button, it felt really awkward. Now, whenever I switch to my Huawei Android device, I feel awkward with the home / back buttons. iOS gestures on the iPhone X is really good and feels natural.

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.

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.

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.

Ya, could be your battery degraded a bit, I guess. One bro says his 7+ battery better than his X, right TOMEI-R?

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 smile.gif

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. smile.gif Next generation of X would be better. Avoid the 1st generation, but still the 1st generation is gorgeous.

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 smile.gif

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 biggrin.gif

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 biggrin.gif 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.

Still have 33% battery life left now. Really superb battery life compared to iPhone 6 Plus. I’m using mostly to browse WW comics on the web nowadays.

Yes agreed with that. I am upgrading from 7, thats why I feel the different. Better battery life, larger screen lead to better gaming and video experience, better camera. Most importantly, the glass back of Gold is so pretty. I can't resist to look at it, thats why im using transparent casing. Of course X would be better, but battery should be slightly lesser than 8 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.

I heard the battery life on iphone X is a lot better, but I feel it isn't as great as what I expected...got to find out why though... hmm.gif

Yes, it is possible to get an unlocked unit in Japan, has seen less of them bought from Japan. Does the price differences is big? If not, why don't get it from Lazada during sales or maybe Telcos. To get rid of those hassle.

You may see the previous discussion on this on another website:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6532070

Hope it helps and relevant to you.

Yes, it is the best jump from 6s to X! You will like X alot though. And finally you learn to unlock your phone by swiping up and sometimes you will notice that the Face ID unlock isn't there, as it works really fast.

Yes, but this will be the future features. Maybe it can scan your face no matter which angle you look at the sensor(as long as within your holding hand distance) in the future. Who knows, and you will probably forget the Touch ID.

I think apple will ditch touch id away, but not immediately.. we might still get touch id for 2018/2019 but after that I don't think they will continue... new model will inherit a lot of from the X, edge to edge, buttonless, oled and etc.... there wont be any room for touch id, eventually..

Already resetted faceid twice. it's more about how you hold your phone against your face and the distance you're holding it.

can't really say it's more convenient since i migrated from a phone without fingerprint sensors and an ipad air 2 which has terribly slow touchid. faceid is what it is and i can still live with it so far

True also. Ideally 64GB is sufficient for 2 years usage.

I use iCloud to store my photos and documents only. 256GB macam overkill.. Just go for 64GB. Can use alternate Google Drive or Dropbox to store your stuff if dont want to pay.

IDK, but my X sure drains faster compared to my 7+. Even more so when you are using it. Standby time, the 7+ would pawn the X because of the larger capacity battery.

i also think so. 8 might be the last phone with touch ID. soon the mute button will be ditch too. even charging cable will be ditch, totally replace with wireless charging.

ideally a phone with a switch on button will be the future. biggrin.gif

can't really say it's more convenient since i migrated from a phone without fingerprint sensors and an ipad air 2 which has terribly slow touchid. faceid is what it is and i can still live with it so far

Oh IC, agreed with you. But you have no other alternative, unless you disable the Face ID and don't put password, which is insecure. Hope you get used to it soon.

Yeah, from normal size phone to the Plus size is a big upgrade, but from 7 Plus to 8 Plus not a big deal.
Ok, good to know that. Thanks!

Yea. My friends are upgrading too from smaller size iPhone, convincing them to get the X. But budget not allow.

QUOTE(dikae @ Dec 21 2017, 11:15 AM)
in my opinion, the gold 8 plus back is nicer than the x back  biggrin.gif if compare with space grey x its even worse lol..
*
Seriously. Its really happy that people say my phone's colour pretty smile.gif But seriously, if i am to get the X, i will pick the black though. Dun like the silver as it was like iPhone 3Gs.

True also. Ideally 64GB is sufficient for 2 years usage.

I use iCloud to store my photos and documents only. 256GB macam overkill.. Just go for 64GB. Can use alternate Google Drive or Dropbox to store your stuff if dont want to pay.
*
i started to use 64gb on 5s and since that my data consumption approx 40gb, not more then 40gb even until ip7 256gb. still maintain usage for 40gb.

however, i have bought 256gb. just live with it !

I still haven’t do much thing on my X as I’m scared to transfer my data from IP6 to this X.
My 6’s got latest update 11.2.1 which I heard got plenty of problem with that update, battery drain is the worst.
Does anyone update to the 11.2.1 yet on ur X?
Mind share your thoughts of it?

IDK, but my X sure drains faster compared to my 7+. Even more so when you are using it. Standby time, the 7+ would pawn the X because of the larger capacity battery.
*
I would have thought the X drains slower during usage coz AMOLED consumes less than LCD during usage. I found this to be true when I was using the S8+ and Note 8, standby was worse than the 7+, but during usage, better. Hmm... Interesting..

I have a different thought, the X battery standby perfectly good, but usage is exceptionally bad.... example standby without using for 20 hours u might have 90-94% left..... but when u use it.... even whatsapp 5 mins u see 1-2% drop.... forum 1-2 mins another 1-2% drop..... games need not mention.... youtube few mins u will not see 1-2% but few %...... basically the phone is great on standby but if you actually use it, it drains like water dripping..... a few other x owners here also reported the same.. sweat.gif

It's okay. As long as a phone can last from you going to work until you back home, thats enough already. Otherwise, if there is tricks to improve the battery, would be better wink.gif Good luck on figuring it out.

i noticed the X usage time drains faster than the 7plus (maybe the same + -), but the standby time on x definitely holds much more than the 7+..

just checked my current usage..... 1h 41m and im already at 72% sweat.gif.... purely web whatsapp nothing else since morning.... hmmmm

Yes, it is possible to get an unlocked unit in Japan, has seen less of them bought from Japan. Does the price differences is big? If not, why don't get it from Lazada during sales or maybe Telcos. To get rid of those hassle.

You may see the previous discussion on this on another website:

The rrp at japan is rm4229 right? Kinda huge difference in price and tempting to get one since I'm probably around Tokyo.

Yes, the price is tempting, you may give it a try. But still to avoid any hassle on warranty claims. I suggest you to get from Malaysia.

IMPORTANT RESTRICTION FOR iPHONE, iPAD AND APPLE TV SERVICE.

Apple may restrict warranty service for iPhone, iPad and Apple TV to the country where Apple or its Authorized Distributors originally sold the device.

Might be ok, might not be ok. Depends on your luck - additionally, the Japan iPhone model number is different, so not sure if might impact any warranty claims since ours is not servicing, but rather replace with refurbished phone.

Sent my phone to diagnose speaker - cracking sound . Apparently the speaker seems alright (I could hear the cracking sound). Went further to check my Bluetooth as it sometimemes woukdnt auto connect and the result shows "error". Was told that it mb server problem. So they told me to leave my phone there for checking which will take 2 days and then they will send it to the Apple service service which will do thorough checking for another 5-7 days.

I didn't leave it there. May do so in Jan.

ya most of the time taking photos with shutter sound is fine.
the only inconvenient time is during seminar or meeting where u want to snap some important slides but don't want the sound to disturb the presenter or audience

Finally joined the bandwagon after much hesitation.

Was previously on Note 8, would say its much more comfortable to grip due to form factor. Will test it out in the next few days.

The rrp at japan is rm4229 right? Kinda huge difference in price and tempting to get one since I'm probably around Tokyo.

Hopefully the warranty is as previous post said is covered regardless of country purchased.

Do note that Japan set, when taking pictures will have a very loud sound. You won't be able to turn this off too.

Note 8 screen is much bigger no doubt. I feel the note 8 display is more vibrant compared to the X, more so when you turn true tone on the iphone X. Battery life, the Iphone X wins hands down, because of IOS. Form factor, the Iphone X is a more comfortable phone to hold though it is heavier. Camera wise, both are equal in this department. Note 8 comes with a Spen which most heavy users will find useful.

I think Note 8's screen is more saturated, making it more vibrant.

Just switched to the X from Note 8. Can immediately feel the difference in terms of size and screen colour.

You forgot one very important point bro. Where the Note 8 wins hands down is value for money. More than 1k in price difference! Even as an avid Apple fan and user, I can’t recommend the X over the Note 8 when asked by my friends. It just doesn’t make sense.

But I think many of us once iOS, always iOS. I ever switched to android, and it is noticeably slow compare to iPhone. My friend's bought S8 for just like 2 weeks and complaining lag.

Yeah, I mean for those who are neutral and not invested into the iOS ecosystem, it’s hard to recommend the iPhone X as a better buy over the Note 8 due to the price.

I used a S8 and S8+ before switching to a Note 8, and I would agree that there are still some very minor lags in both the S8 and S8+, but the Note 8 was buttery smooth. I’m guessing Samsung’s UI works better if you have 6GB RAM on board over 4GB, which is what the Note 8 has over the two S8 devices.

I would not concur to that, though it true. Long time IOS users like us wont be able to switch over all our current stuff over in IOS to android easily. That is why we need the best of both worlds.

I agree, switched to iPhone X for 3 days and I do miss Google's integration. Also, iOS is so much more restrictive. It was fine on my iPad as I do not need that much control but for my daily driver it's does not really fit my needs. On the other hand, the design, screen, battery life is amazing. Camera too. Absurdly good photos.

*If Pixel 2 XL is sold officially is MY with official warranty provided, I will definitely jump ship. Cannot stand to purchase Sammie as flagship phones = curved screens which I hate.

at 89% my usage is 16 mins... .... .... ?

also phone feels laggy today, notice that when I tap to wake (takes 0.3 sec longer than usual to wake screen)/ swipe to unlock (before the apps appear on screen, I see a few lags) / pull down CC to check battery... it has a few sprite lags...not sure whats going on..

Ya, exactly that. In fact, just setting up a new phone also pretty troublesome coz you're worried if you restore from a backup something will go haywire.

quite true... i love my iphone X and dont regret getting it but it is hard to suggest iphone X over note 8 especially for ppl who dont have a strong preference for iOS...

Can't help it, though. I use youtube, search, photos, email, calendar which are all on google. Google likely knows me better than I know myself LOL. RM84.99 per year for 100GB of google drive fits my needs to a tee.

Apple's icloud doesn't really suit me - 50GB (RM3.90 per mth) is too little storage, and 200GB (RM11.90 per mth) is too expensive. Not to mention that apple's cloud services feel really slow compared to google's.

Silver seems more popular this year than previous editions of the phone. I think that’s because Apple used the silver for ads and promos, and that influenced buyers to that colour. That’s not the best way to make an expensive buying decision, but people do get influenced by what a company promotes (not just Apple products) at launch, and relaunches.

Now u r asking me to leave behind the dummy proof process of changing from iOS to newer iOS device, and the seedless way I can continue my work and browsing between my iPad and iPhone.
So no way I’m going back to android. Can’t imagine process of upgrading phone with it.

Yea agree with you. But still everybody needs internet plan for their phone, hence telco would be the best. As they subsidies your phone, and provide you internet.

What is your storage capacity and total usage? It could be the phone freeing storage space.

I once read a "hack" which I have been using ever since to free space on my 16 GB 6 Plus. The hack is to download a movie from iTunes Store and the phone will start to free up space.

When the phone start freeing up space, I noticed that my icons for some of my apps will be dimmed.

Guys, there is burn in effect on my ipx 256gb less than 1 months. From photo u can see there is a line at the botom of battery & wifi icon(aligned with notch bottom) and u can see the contrast that the icon area appear slightly brighter. Not sure it is temporary image retention, burn in or defect out from the box just noticed today?(is is not obvious with about 20cm viewing distance) but it is still remain same level of visibility after 6 hrs of screen off.

The problem with flagship Androids being priced high is that the value doesn’t hold. Looking at the Garage Sale, I can see a new Note 8 being offered at about 33**. While it’s fair to say the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus has also dropped in value, the value of the X still pretty much holds. Anyway, it’s interesting to see the trend for next year if prices of phones will keep going up. At some point it will become unsustainable.

Just want to share some of my experience.

Previously i use ip7.
At first, it took awhile to adapt with gesture.
After use for 4 days, i get use to it and its new experience after many years of using home button including touch id.

So far i seldom use physical button.
Example to lock screen, volume button, screenshot even for restart.
Most of time i use assistive touch for that funtion.
So much helpful with combination of gesture.

Yeah battery performance for me so far can fit my usage, ios 11.2

I've been using phones with AMOLED screens for more 4 years before the ip-x. I don't usually pixel peep but my 2 year old note 5's display still looks alright to my eyes and I've utilised the hell out of the that phone.

Not sure what the fuss is about the ip-x's OLED display - should be similar since made by Samsung, no?

your statement seems like a lot smartphones using sony camera sensor produce same photo lol

No it just means all the Sony sensors can take photos and videos. Further improvements and tweaks possible in the respective ISPs.

What I mean is I worry less about burn in on OLED than actually dropping my phone and cracking the display.

I've been using phones with AMOLED screens for more 4 years before the ip-x. I don't usually pixel peep but my 2 year old note 5's display still looks alright to my eyes and I've utilised the hell out of the that phone.

Not sure what the fuss is about the ip-x's OLED display - should be similar since made by Samsung, no?

This photo should looks clearer with solid color image, attach the sample for u guys to try ur device if u want.

I saw it accidently last night, the problem is once u knw it is there it bcome more obvious to ur eye than it supposed to be😂

You said it bro, although yeah, it’s 5k, so people expect perfection smile.gif

Anyways, as long as it’s under warranty I wouldn’t be too worried.

Brother in law just texted me from the States. He just got his unit from Houston, Texas with sales tax 8.5% and he can get half of the tax in refunds making it approximately RM4.2k for a 64GB. Worth the gamble for a better Qualcomm modem? smile.gif

Noticed the Whatsapp animation is quite sluggish (when sending messages etc).

The message takes about 1-2 sec to send across after typing.

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 smile.gif

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 biggrin.gif
See above smile.gif

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 biggrin.gif 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.

A month ago I offered someone 2300 for the same and he politely told me I was lowballing, haha. Anyways, yeah, I’d pay 2500 for a 32GB with at least 2-3 months warranty left but not more than that,especially if warranty is over.

Hahaha... the only reason we’re an “iFamily” as you put it is not because we are rich la, but because iOS is easier for everyone, from my 8 year old son to my 75 year old mother.

No wor, I feel it’s the opposite
The resale value is much better than my iPhone 6+ and more response. When I was selling my 6+ I had zero response. Not even a lowballer lol.

The 7+ had better responses and because the newer 8 and X cost so much more, the resale value also higher.

Definitely iPhone x if budget is not an issue, somewhat it's Apple's flagship phone this year....between 8 and x is a no brainer..however if u r contemplating between an x or 8plus then yes u have a few things to compare...

This SP looks really nice with almost edge to edge. Only thing is the installation looks like a freaking pain, and cases that will fit with this SP should be quite limited...

Hi, is there anyone having issue with their iPhone X where when you charge the battery percentage remain the same and did not go up? And after restart the phone the battery percentage went up?
How to solve this issue?
*
Something like you charge for 2 hours and the batt remains at 50%. Then you reboot the phone and it now shows 100%?

Nope, didn’t face this.

Are you with latest iOS? If yes, maybe try to do a hard reset. Hopefully it is solved.

Only that 2 features? I’m using App Store and Album family sharing too. Oh ya. Almost forgot family calendar.

Ya, those two features would be the ones we use most. There’s a bit of App Store sharing too, but they don’t use that many apps and we’ve not tried using Family Album or Calendar though...

Anyways, it’s stuffs like these that you don’t get in Android...

i think probably need to calibrate thr battery. Try drain the battery to maybe 5% and then charge to full. do a few times. i have this issue with my old iP4 i think and that method helps.

Yea, but X got the 2 lens stabilizer. Hence, I believe photos taken by X will be sharper than 8 Plus.

Now i feel completed.
Protective hard shell case + full tempered glass + back protector + lens protector. Finger cross nothing happen in future biggrin.gif

I prefer normal back protector so that i can change casing easily.

If use tempered glass at back, can use bumper only.

So this time no clear coat.

Happy holiday and merry christmas all smile.gif

Back protector is normal one. Rm10. This is prevent scratch from tiny little things that came such as dust. As when we use casing, there will be are dust trapped between casing and phone itself.

Lens glass protector, baseus. Rm29 (got 2 protector)

I just go round any shop at lowyat.

If clear coat, gonna be perfect however cant use hard shell case. More suitable like tpu or rubber material such as rugged armor. This one for me worth the money. But then it depends on the casing too.

Last time i use lifeproof ip6 and below for free of mind.

So for me 3 option:

1. Fully covered with front tempered glass + back protector + lens protector and hard shell case
2. Fully covered with front tempered glass + clear coat + lens and tpu material case
3. Protective case such as lifeproof (the last option however now iphone already had water resistant. Might not go to this l anymore)

Woah, thanks for sharing of the above. I will look for back protector, it makes sense though when the dust/sand is going inside the back casing. Gonna grab a cheap lens protector too. In case it scracthes. Thanks.

I posted the wrong photo actually, that was my friend's charger- Baseus, I got mine a month ago and just got his.

Shopee selling RM66 https://shopee.com.my/Baseus-Fast-Qi-Wirele...35448.676547730

I got for him from taobao less than RM60(not much diff slightly cheaper during 12.12) but need with others to save shipment cost. Very solid wireless charger, am still using every day

As for the casing, this is the link http://m.tb.cn/h.z8wSJS

How long does it take to charge from 0 to full? i managed to order 1 today for RM49 after discount. I assume it is a good buy? brows.gif
btw, do u have any recommendation and links to TG/casing that you have bought so far from taobao? still hunting for some nice casing and a decent TG at an affordable price... should be receiving a temporary TG and casing tmrw (if there is no delay from poslaju) so that i can at least properly use my iphone...

Don't quite understand your question, if you are referring to the wireless charger plug, it is free with the hoco wireless charger or you can use any 2A charger.

As for the fast charger this is the link http://m.tb.cn/h.zQ4Zwm and comes with free usb-c to lightning cable.

I haven't really time all my chargers.

As for TG, just changed to Hoda TG, used Baseus for closed to 2 months, think Hoda nicer a bit.

As for casing very subjective, I like transparent and light weight, protection of course won't be that great.

Quite a good price there since it supports both QC3 and PD2, according to specs.

Its not the same as apple care.

As far as i know, apple care valid for 3 years.

Machine protection plan valid for 2 years and valid on the same day of purchase only. Meaning in single receipt.

Cant purchase separately

Definitely iPhone x if budget is not an issue, somewhat it's Apple's flagship phone this year....between 8 and x is a no brainer..however if u r contemplating between an x or 8plus then yes u have a few things to compare...

Thank you for the feedback. Decided to go for X. smile.gif

Back protector is normal one. Rm10. This is prevent scratch from tiny little things that came such as dust. As when we use casing, there will be are dust trapped between casing and phone itself.

Lens glass protector, baseus. Rm29 (got 2 protector)

I just go round any shop at lowyat.

If clear coat, gonna be perfect however cant use hard shell case. More suitable like tpu or rubber material such as rugged armor. This one for me worth the money. But then it depends on the casing too.

Last time i use lifeproof ip6 and below for free of mind.

So for me 3 option:

1. Fully covered with front tempered glass + back protector + lens protector and hard shell case
2. Fully covered with front tempered glass + clear coat + lens and tpu material case
3. Protective case such as lifeproof (the last option however now iphone already had water resistant. Might not go to this l anymore)

Mind sharing where did you buy the back protector? Lowyat shop as well? Thanks.

it depends on which TG are you going to get, full coverage 3D or 2.5D slightly smaller coverage... most of the time it fits into normal TPU plastic case... best u bring it to the shop and let them have a look before proceeding..

Its not the same as apple care.

As far as i know, apple care valid for 3 years.

Machine protection plan valid for 2 years and valid on the same day of purchase only. Meaning in single receipt.

Cant purchase separately

I bought this.. kinda forced to by machines if i wanna opt for 0% credit card installment.

Apple Care for iphones are 2 years. FYI. not 3 years. REF https://www.apple.com/shop/product/S6367LL/...re-for-iphone-x

true.. but i wonder if we buy apple care in other country can it be activated on malaysian phone or not?

Either way, i see the value with machines plan though. I can ensure the second hand value and also that the phone is protected for 2 years.

Check from apple website it shows eligible.

To proceed for apple care, it would request u to select country from drop down list. Unfortunately, Malaysia is not included. Nearest was SG.

I noticed in malaysia, even we didnt get offered for applecare, we still have option such as machines and switch protection plan.

But then again, in malaysia as long its original apple then settle.
Overseas, they would buy those protection plan to protect devices for no matter the circumstances.

I guess it depends to individual preferences on how they care for device in term of protection plan

Heard they moved the Christmas celebrations over to Marina Bay. Over the years, they usually close Orchard Road for performances, processions, etc. but this year it was opened to traffic as usual.

Anyways, most of the folks buying Apple products yesterday at the Store were visitors, all producing passports to claim GST refunds.

Hi, i received this security for free when i purchased my ipx from harvey norman. Should i install it or just ignore it? As far as i know, apple products are quite secure and no need other form of security but the salesman suggests to install it because iphone security cant protect from malware.

To be honest I've not experienced any serious bugs or lags with iPhones, except maybe with the 6 Plus for a short period of time. Hence I find your experience with lags and bugs on the X kinda interesting. Anyways, I still have a few more days here in Singapore so let's see smile.gif

Anyone tried using Nillkin tempered glass screen protector? I'm using the Hoda white one and got small chip already at the edge. Phone kept in pocket without keys/coins etc. Less than a week too. Hoda RM69 but feels great but Nillkin is RM30. I've used it before on my old S6. Anyone using Nillkin for the X? Any thoughts?

Yea like I mentioned the lags and bugs on older models are not serious, as to compare to this x biggrin.gif furthermore, the bugs that I'm experiencing on the x is kinda common that other members here also experiencing, and of course more from other forums i.e. Macrumors...could also be the problem between ios11 and the x...i/we are still exploring as we use it...and u will eventually find out if you get it.. biggrin.gif

First time i heard, people want to install mobile security apps in iphone.

I still remember those days back, this thing always mention by nokia user including me to install symantac software.

Apple product such as ipad iphone and even mac does not require those apps as it apple OS which similar with linux OS

so I bought an ixpand mini for a friend who owns an iphone x as a Christmas present.. and it does not work, can detect but cannot copy photos from the phone. after googling I found out from the sandisk forums that this is a common problem. it is related to which version you have, either 'card 2' or 'card 3'. card 3 is the problematic one.
when buying the ixpand mini there's no way to find out if you're getting a card 2 or card 3.
if you RMA it using sandisk website you will definitely get a replacement that will work with iphone x.
however my friend is from the uk and he will be leaving on 12 Jan 2017.. I think it will take some time for sandisk to send me the replacement

anyone here can give me a better solution? like.. will the new 'leaf' version of sandisk ixpand work with the iphone x?

kindly tag me if you do reply, thanks

Hello. When I pull down the control center and swipe up again, I can feel a slight vibrate but sometimes I can hear a small tick sound with vibrate when doing so.

I think 64 is sufficient. hence i went with 64gb. plus i have icloud family storage which is 200gb. so more than enough for me since the photos and videos on iphone are set to optimize storage instead of original size.

not necessary to have 256gb unless you use it alot for music and games+apps.

i don't believe i have this issue. but i do feel the vibrate depending on where you swipe up from.

open CC.
slide up from the bottom where the horizontal line is... and you will feel a slight vibrate.

but if you slide up from anywhere in the middle of the screen, there is no vibrate.


about the tick, im not too sure about that. is it like as though the glass and oled screen not sticking together kind of feel?

nobody knows in future. as far as im concerned, antivirus apps is useless. Unless its a VPN like the secureline VPN. It will definitely lag in terms of connection as it needs to re-reoute your connection to their server.

I’ve used Nillkin on my other phones before and it’s pretty good, value for money. But for me it was more prone to fingerprint smudges compared to the Hoda. I’m surprised your Hoda one has chipped off but then again I have no experience using the white packaged Hoda, only ever used the yellow one.

I bought whitestonedome.

http://www.lazada.com.my/iphone-x-screen-p....250bfacfdN3zAd

Using it on my Note 8 and so far its been good to me. perfect fit. no issues with cases. Also it makes it feel solid and its a trusted brand.

have been using multiple brands in the past but nothing works as advertised. but so far this one has been good. so i got this as well. however just got it yesterday. havent had the time to put it on.

take note, its expensive. but currently its being sold for RM160 which is the cheapest. I bought mine for 199.

My problem with tempered glass protectors is that I have to buy it retail, coz I want it installed for me. I’m hopeless at DIY, ha ha. So it’s unlikely that I will buy it online and installed it myself laugh.gif

Yeah, that one is premium smile.gif

My problem with tempered glass protectors is that I have to buy it retail, coz I want it installed for me. I’m hopeless at DIY, ha ha. So it’s unlikely that I will buy it online and installed it myself laugh.gif

Surprisingly it is easy to fix. though i made an expensive mistake on my note 8 which created a permanent bubble and had to buy another set... lol..

I had problem with Waze as well. It keep saying No GPS. I thought it was my car tint or something. But tested with my other iPhone 7 Plus no issue. I have changed the location service to always, restarted the phone numerous times....still couldn't fix it.

Then....deleted that app and reinstalled....FIXED  sweat.gif  sweat.gif

Yeap same here...reinstall app solved the problem..not only waze...even on some other apps...from my observation, there are issues linked between ios11-apps-ipx ...

Yeah, that's what I'm afraid of! biggrin.gif

Anyways I try to budget my spend on tempered glass protectors at RM100, so even if Whitestone is available at retail I highly doubt I will try it as well, ha ha...

Yeap tried a few times diy TG on those rm10-20 ones..success rate was half half lol....rather let others do it...I can accept having bubbles (if diy) depends on which part...if it’s not obvious I’m ok...laugh.gif

i don't believe i have this issue. but i do feel the vibrate depending on where you swipe up from.

open CC.
slide up from the bottom where the horizontal line is... and you will feel a slight vibrate.

but if you slide up from anywhere in the middle of the screen, there is no vibrate.
about the tick, im not too sure about that. is it like as though the glass and oled screen not sticking together kind of feel?

I don’t recall having these app issues on the 7 Plus or 8 Plus when I was using it. Wondering if the problem is exclusive to the iPhone X... hmm.gif

yeap but can see improvements and fixes over time....especially when I just got it last month, things were kinda half cooked... and the X is a new development, so it bound to have problems... as long as its not big issues that'll affect daily use then I'm good..

The chip of my Hoda SP is as seen is the pictures below. Don't even know how it happened. The coating on the Hoda is really good but durability like so-so for my case.
