QUOTE(GAME_ON @ Sep 14 2018, 09:27 AM) Hmmm..and i thought it was screen refresh rate, lucky i read this thread Buying the Xs Max? I truly agree with u bro! Hi btw QUOTE(yclam5729 @ Sep 14 2018, 10:31 AM) Main reason to me is screen size esp width, can't tahan X width so small that I can't see much on Waze. Couldn't agree more. The screen of the X looks like cartoon next to my note 9. Have to get the 6.5 ' screen iPhone. |

QUOTE(LeonTan @ Sep 14 2018, 11:06 AM) ya, I also just read some articles and watch youtube regarding xr, the resolution is way outdated for such a high price phones Right about that. Pay a bit more for the Xs. The display is not even up to the standards of a middle range android phone. But can our eyes really tell the difference? Some claim they could, if you ask me, all flagship phones looks similar in display.still have time to think, xs vs x This post has been edited by TOMEI-R: Sep 14 2018, 11:38 AM |

QUOTE(benny888 @ Sep 14 2018, 04:14 PM) @CNN: This is how much money Apple makes on iPhones Battery life on the Oneplus phones and Google Pixels are already comparable to the IPhones.https://cnn.it/2CUpE61 Msian prices are crazy more expensive vs US. Yet we see locals are willing to pay for it. Their reasons - proven eco system, smoothness , speed , app stability etc. Personally I will not pay more than rm4k for a phone even for such reasons. I had used all the IP till ip8+ ( except 5s) and yet remain unconvinced IP is more superior to other high end Androids. The only exception s it's better battery life but than isn't significantly better. This time I will go for the XR model and as usual will just be my secondary phone. My main attraction to it is solely it's 6.1 " display size |

QUOTE(attw @ Sep 14 2018, 09:01 PM) Hopefully that’s the case then we should get it by next month I wouldn't be surprised. But still have to wait for lazada 11/11 sale... which is months away. The same can be said of most flagship phones actually. All they have to do now is fit a 5000mAh battery into each and everyone of them and I’m good |

QUOTE(attw @ Sep 15 2018, 05:28 PM) Coz I'm lazy to check every other country that launched in the first wave, hahaha... But seriously though, is Saudi much cheaper? You could buy unlocked sets if you walk into Apple Stores in the US or you could buy through Apple Stores online. Locked sets are telco subsidized units bro.Ya, true. My brother-in-law bought his X about a couple of months later as they didn't have any stock of unlocked ones earlier. |

QUOTE(xiaoming0614 @ Sep 16 2018, 11:06 AM) QUOTE(rebus @ Sep 16 2018, 12:50 PM) nope. you, me and the rest of the world. and this year's event just seemed so ...lazy Smartphone technology has already reached a level where major improvements and breakthroughs are hard to come by. Manufacturers can also claim so much as better battery life, a faster processor, better screen and resolution, better camera etc where except battery life, you wont really notice a difference in your daily usage of the phone. While I don't blame them for the above, it is the increase in price which is the real issue. Some companies are really over their heads where they dare to price their products exorbitantly without fear of consumer backlash and reprisal. As consumers continue to buy their products, the more bold they become and the pricier their products get. The only thing you you as consumers can do, is to simply not buy. Lets see what is the outcome of the sales of this generation of the Iphone and if they could achieve their targeted sales volume.XS? Really? X meaning 10 was the 10th year anniversary special so this year cannot be X anymore! such a lazy upgrade. and the big brother - XS Max . the hell kind of name is that. removing the adapter dongle and making it a separate order..? come on Apple billion dollar company and still no fast charger included. Speaking as fan boy since IP4 and owned each year the fan-ness is slowly reducing. Problem is the alternative - nothing much as i feel Android still a work in progress. Have used Samsung, Xioami, Nokia (experimenting you know..) still keep coming back to iOS. Should give a little more to keep the fan base loyal.

QUOTE(soitsuagain @ Sep 16 2018, 07:27 PM) Back then people were wondering about the 512GB for the Macbook as it was very pricy. And that’s a laptop where more storage will be needed but now it’s only a phone. Can you define what it means by cheap memory and blazing fast memory as per your claim above? Anyway, the reason for the more expensive price is because the internal memory. They are blazing fast. Apple just don’t use cheap memory. This post has been edited by TOMEI-R: Sep 16 2018, 09:18 PM |

QUOTE(afiqsabri @ Sep 16 2018, 09:34 PM) they are 2 component in ANY phone that made them expensive, the storage type and screen. I would say the combination of Super AMOLED + UFS 3.0 Storage.. QUOTE(westlife @ Sep 16 2018, 10:12 PM) yes, exactly. many just simply compare on paper spec, but apple actually uses much better hardware. like the ssd on macbook pro, it is insanely faster than any ssd that can be found on any other windows laptop. The IPhone Xs and Xs Max is not running on Ufs 3.0. So how better is Apple's hardware particularly on storage on the XS and Xs Max?For your info, Samsung is bringing Ufs 3.0 to the S10/ S10+ This post has been edited by TOMEI-R: Sep 17 2018, 12:06 AM |
