I’ll probably get the Xs Max gold 64gb. I prefer bigger screen and my storage usage is low.

The Xr is tempting though with 6.1 display.

Get the Xr first then upgrade to the Xs Max later, coz getting the Xs Max first means you can’t (or rather shouldn’t) downgrade later... laugh.gif

Well, that’s my plan anyways, hehe...

So far so good. From this morning till now. If I dont tell you its been upgraded, you wont notice as well.

The resolution is like 6, 6s, 7 or 8 326ppi. If one can accept that resolution, bigger screen with that price will be value for money, not to mention FaceID is huge different user experience. Please don't go and look at ppl's OLED iPhone screen then XR user will be ok.

XR going to be a hit as the price is merely US$50 more than 8 plus, it is a huge upgrade from 8 and not upgrade from 8 plus since the single camera, 326ppi mimic 4.7" iPhone rather than 5.5" 401ppi resolution and dual camera since 7+

This is so true. laugh.gif

Guys, a bit confused about the dual SIM feature.
They said that china getting a special edition with dual SIM tray. So what about the rest of the world?

Just one sim tray slot and the 2nd line needs to use esim?
*
Its not a dual sim tray like that of android phones, but a sim try which can fit two sim cards, one on top and one on the bottom. I would prefer getting China/HK sets as E Sim is still not in Malaysia yet.

Ever since I use FaceID I start hate touchID on my iPad Pro, felt so slow when the touch ID take sometime to detect my finger and it has to be clean and not wet. Base on your claim sound like X or XS suit your size.

But I am excited on XS Max as X width is smaller than plus size making bad for watching video or navigation. 6.5" is massive for screen viewing but the down side is weight, not one hand friendly and of course price.

I have to agree. Once you get used to Face ID, nobody would want to go back to touch ID. Its so freaking fast and smooth.

Will we be getting china version too? Don't see how that eSIM dual type can be widely used if only Maxis supports it.

I take if anyone were to buy from US for the sim free version unlocked version, you'll just get eSIM dual.
*
Not sure yet. So far no news on MY set. Even there is no news on SG device if its dual eSIM or physical dual sim.

The info has been up since day one on the Apple SG website dude. The Xs and Xs Max in SG will be getting the nano sim + eSim version.

In HK only the Xs Max is getting the dual nano sim. Xs will be nano sim + eSim as well.

I suspect MY will be getting the nano sim + eSim model also. Unlikely for them to roll out a different model in Malaysia than Singapore.

Then maybe buy a HK set? Lots of people claim got no issues claiming warranty here, although I personally wouldn't risk it.

Same here, although moving to an Xr from your current X is also considered a downgrade smile.gif

Am I hoping for too much I wonder ...

Yes, but you have to install third party apps like Messenger for WhatsApp on appstore.

Without GST & SST at least you can save 6% but when I took a look at Apple Store MYS yesterday, iPad 20118 already kena 6% SST, so most likely XS same price X last year. I compare XS price in SG, same price as last year X. So your hope is online pricing so long you can wait, Lazada etc should have discount as demand is poor.
