I have checked with Apple, all iphone 8 and iphone x bought overseas can claim warranty at malaysian authorised service center.

If u buy there with tax free it converts to only 4800 malaysian ringgit. No problems with the carrier since japanese iphones have more bands than other countries. Only downside is the shutter sound when use camera.

112800 is the 64gb version. I live in Japan so i know.

A few weeks ago, no. Now you can pick up tomorrow if u reserve.

That one if u buy with carrier but iphones never have carrier branding. Apple store ones are all sim free phones. No carrier branding.

Now can easily.

I bought 5 on the launch day 3 november. No problems on all 5.

Currently using my Japanese iphone x with malaysian sim, shutter sound is there. The only way to make s more subtle sound is to turn on the live photos. It wont be sound loud.

I was there in line to buy 2 and pick up the other 2 i preordered on third november. The PRC is very shameful. Smoking, cutting queues, argue with security because they went away to sleep in their hotel. Worst is they use old people to line up just to resell.

Apple store set is sim free.

Japan set can claim warranty in Malaysia.

Apple pay doesnt work in Malaysia but if u have cards from countries that have apple pay enabled u can use it in Malaysia since all the iphone 8 and iphone x now has felica.
