It is all simply profits....only diehards will wish to spend so much on a phone. My personal limit not exceeding rm4k. For rm5k you are not even getting a perfect phone !

And that’s because there is no perfect phone laugh.gif

Can we buy extend warranty for Ipx?
*
There’s no official Apple Care offered for iPhones in Malaysia. There are only third party warranty extension plans like from machines, Switch, etc.

My take? Buy from SenQ/Senheng, free second year warranty for Plus One members smile.gif

no applecare for malaysia? damn.. just went to senq, they got raya promo, rm4357 only. But caveat is u either sign up their extend to 4yrs warranty for rm400 or u sign up celcom postpaid rm10 contract 6 months lowest lol. But the salesman din tell me about free second year eh.. if is this price tempted.
*
4 years warranty for 400? Super cheap, that is if you keep the phone for that long laugh.gif

QUOTE(ben3003 @ Jun 8 2018, 08:16 AM)
yeah as per what the promoter told me. tempting but only few months to go and analyst said the new iphone will be cheaper becos lower manufacturing cost. i think it is possible because apple felt the heat that iphone x sales failed to meet target miserably.
*
Don’t believe everything you read from the analysts, haha. Apple isn’t exactly unhappy about the iPhone X coz it sold well in some markets but more importantly it returned a huge profit for them. The same analysts also wrote that the X will be discontinued when the next gen iPhones are announced in September.

yup for 4 yrs lol.. i kept my iphone 6 plus for 5ys haha.. becos apple phone no need keep changing. 1 reason is becos no much new features  biggrin.gif another reason is the OS update old phone also included, in the long run save cost la.. if android u need new phone to get latest upgrade else ur upgrade maybe come half year later..

i see, i tot analyst Ming-Chi Kuo actually quite accurate all this while, he never salah lol.. he is the one saying new iphone x pricing will be lower than usd1000 due to lower manufacturing cost. well iphone x is supposingly to be an anniversary limited edition
*
Don’t forget too that iOS 12 will make the iPhone 6 Plus relevant again, if the demo in the keynote is true smile.gif Imagine Samsung releasing an update to Android Oreo for a Galaxy S5 or a Note 4 now smile.gif

The iPhone X was their anniversary edition but was never a limited edition, hence that’s why the sales did not meet the analysts’ expectations laugh.gif

I see, anyway i was pretty disappointed with note 8 after half a year using. Ridiculously when u search, u type g, f or wat else i forget edi, the homescreen will force close LOL! then it was fixed at Oreo. But Oreo brought in another flaw, which is the apps badge or at iphone is the number at the icon to let u know how many message. That thing also they can make until cacat... i normally mute my notification because i dont wan all the vibration coming in especially from group. If individual i dont mute because it is more important, others like game group can mute later can watch. But at note8 u mute then the notification badge wont show number oledi.. this is really a problem especially for ppl like me i dont owes look at my phone. when i open my phone i will see if got badge then i will go inside and read.. then ppl say can fix using other launcher.. i was like hello i am not looking for 3rd party fix when i am paying samsung for their phone and their experience.

Then i lost my note 8 somebody snatch it while broke my car window. I was like, oh well... gone for good lol. Was planning to buy this yr new iphone anyway, still prefer iphone and ios 12 is really game changer. Android oreo just fuking broke their own notification shit.
*
I used the Note 8 for only 3 weeks, then sold it due to the poor battery life biggrin.gif

how about battery life ?

My wife says her X is returning about an hour or so additional usage time since going to iOS 11.4 but other users I know say it's about the same.

their protection plan not good as offered by Switch. if yes, the rm400 for 4 year protection plan is worth to pay. Just stick with the 2 year warranty which is 1 year from Apple Malaysia and another 1 year from Senq or Senheng. Don't give high hope on Senq's protection plan. Apple product hardly spoil if taking care of it and can last long for 5-6 years (my iPhone 4 still working).  biggrin.gif

Depends on luck also actually, can’t say Apple products won’t spoil laugh.gif

Been looking around for a new casing, contemplating between Apple Leather Casing, Normad and the soon to launch Spigen Anniversary collection.

Anyone using the above casing can feedback on protection and wear and tear? Currently using Spigen Tough Armor, feels solid still but getting nored with the look and feel.
*
Any details on the Spigen Anniversary Collection?

Nice! Good price too. I decided against getting it coz already using the phone with a bulky Otterbox case and didn’t want another bulky case, tempting though as it may be smile.gif

Then unlikely they do one to one exchange. Best go to the service center.

Does charging with 3rd party cable affect the battery? My friend bought a cable from Ninja(?) and it charges faster than my original cable. Less than 15 bucks!

I'd try to use the ori one as much as possible, but that said I do know of a friend using a third party one for years and his 6 Plus is still going good.

For the fast charging using the 29W USB-C power adapter, I've got to buy the usb type c to lightning cable right? Or which one is the one compatible with the iPhone? I want to get that one cause the normal one charges quite slow for me.
*
For me personally the USB C to Lightning doesn’t charge that much faster compared to the normal cable with a 12W iPad charger, so the normal one would be a cheaper solution. That said, Apple’s ori USB C to Lightning cable has gotten a price adjustment and is now the same as the normal lightning cable.

that's logical. The 12 ipad charger is not fast charging type, around 2.4a max. u need the usb c charger for macbook to utilize true usb-c PD fast charging.
*
I’m using a cheapo third party USB C PD adapter so maybe that has got something to do with it too laugh.gif

My 12W adapter arrived already so I’ll try it for the next few days and see (my iPad came with a 10W one only)

Hi guys,

Got my iphonex last month but i notice this phone has serious signal reception issue, the location keep jumping, while driving on main road the waze keep showing im on the small road beside.

Its almost unusable, just sometime its working properly. From what i can notice the problem is not waze app but the weak signal reception of iphone x.

I used to get full signal bar at home with the 6s but now most of the time i get 3 bar only.

Hometown even worst, my parent rm200 asus phone got full bar while i have 1/2 bar! Same carrier.

Anyone has the same issue? I almost cant tahan it anymore this is unacceptable for such as expensive phone.

Previously use 6s no issue at all.
*
There has been some complaints on this on the X on this. I experienced it once but I thought it was a telco problem, after a software update, everything was fine. What software version are you on?
