Yes, all 64gb version

iPhone Xs
64gb    $1649
256gb  $1889
512gb.  $2199

iPhone Xs max
64gb $1799
256gb $2039
512gb $2349

iPhone XR
64gb  $1229
128gb $1299
256gb $1469

For me 128GB is the sweet spot. 256GB seems like overkill (let's not even talk about 512GB) and 64GB is cutting it a little close. One more reason to pick the Xr smile.gif

I wouldn't say 256gb is overkill. It's a lot but definitely not overkill if you take a lot of 4k/high fps videos.
*
Hehe, yeah, I meant for me personally since I don't take that much videos. My old 6 Plus 64GB stored 1500 photos or so with space to spare still smile.gif

My iPhone6 64gb.  8.4k photos 800 videos still got space .
I’ve been using iPhone for 8 years , so I think 256gb is a lot, unless u keep taking hd videos .
*
Yeah, my point exactly smile.gif

64GB would suffice for most regular users, users into gaming and graphics and videography might want to opt for larger storage options.

i'm wondering will we getting the same model as China Dual Sim since we doesn't support eSim. but usually will follow Singapore version, right?

For now I think dual sim is exclusive to China. Don't think we will get it.

I hope maxis implements eSim for these iPhones when it gets here though smile.gif

If you're flying can claim GST refund in Singapore.
Correct me if I'm wrong.

You're not wrong, but you won't be able to claim the whole 7% though. There's usually a 1%-2% admin fees.

Well let's wait and see how it goes
Does SST affect phone price? As i noticed few days ago iPhone X pricing is same during non GST period??
*
That's because they had existing stocks, I believe.

I just checked Apple Online and the prices of Macs, iPads and iPods have all gone up to reflect SST. Tax holiday is over, guys cry.gif

iPhones and Watch Series 3 priced down, naturally. Oh, and AirPods also down laugh.gif

I actually bought my 256GB X at RM4,888 back in February during Lazada's CNY sale, so that's not too enticing an offer smile.gif

based on 4 years trend, our pricing have been following singapore pricing. Compared to before, we are much2 cheaper than our neighbour. Thus i would expect the price would be almost similar to the current pricing of IpX.
moral of the stories Ive learned from my previous IpX is not to get the phone during launch.And we get our Malaysian launch quite fast. The iphone x still got stocks even after 2 weeks of launch in singapore, and the stocks available in Malaysia after that. And the best thing was lazada having massive discount with iphone x. GG
Good luck everyone.

To be fair, the stated prices are almost direct conversion from SGD RRP. For example, the IP XS Max 256GB is SGD $2049 = Rm6190.38

Yes, scalping at a reasonable level laugh.gif

QUOTE(Mavik @ Sep 13 2018, 06:35 PM)
Looks like I shall have to wait for the phones with contract here to reduce the overall costs.

Same here, but my contract only expires next year hence get the cheaper Xr to tahan first, hehe..

QUOTE(fadzly @ Sep 13 2018, 07:35 PM)
but the pricing for that scalpers reasonable i would say.

my cost for an iphone x at launch in singapore was

RM5.4k +RM 300 lost for fake Courts Advertisement (refund lost due to currency devaluation) + Park at orchard road RM20 + Mcdonalds meals for three RM50 + toll and ERP ~ RM70 and at that time currency was S$1 = RM3.1, his pricing for 3.2 was reasonable I would say.

And not to forget the experienced I had during the purchased with 100% check over my car at the border, and i was detained for 30 minutes and need to give urine at the narcotics unit for giving the real reason on why i went to Singapore and I said, i came here just to buy an iPhone which was not satisfied by a young rookie narcotic officer.

Thank god, i was not inside the lockup.

This is the price I predict based on the SGD selling price.

That’s pretty reasonable, considering the X launched at 5149 and 5899 back last year biggrin.gif

Buying from Lazada and not from Apple store?

Since Lazada became an official reseller last year what we learned is that if you’re willing to wait a little, you can get it cheaper than compared to the Apple Store smile.gif

Couple of bad news, but not unexpected.

1. Same slow charger provided with the new iPhones

2. No more 3.5mm jack to lightning adapter provided
