ordered my iphone xs max 256gb hong kong set. supposed to arrive this saturday but yesterday the guy told me the shipping is delayed and will arrive on tuesday because of natural disaster. btw, buying a hong kong set is better than singapore set right? because the price is lower and you can get 2 simcard slot. singapore set only has 1 simcard slot and the 2nd sim is esim

QUOTE(TOMEI-R @ Sep 20 2018, 10:43 AM) You have a point there. Might as well get the XS if you could afford it or get an Iphone 8 for that money. There is no international warranty for iphones. Go through Apple's terms and conditions of the warranty again. For your convinience. Apple's One Year Limited Warranty PolicyIf you are using the Iphone 7, the XS will do just fine. But not if you are using the 7+. I went from the 7+ to the X and I fret the small screen. QUOTE(TOMEI-R @ Sep 20 2018, 11:14 AM) Agreed. But we would have this discussion during every new launch of iphones and preferably, lets keep its as per stated on Apple's warranty policy. yes. you can bring up as many T&C you like.. but the fact is.. Apple do let you claim warranty for Aus set/Hk set for past Iphone.. Support from Apple also confirmed that.. If you want a copy of chat transcript.. i'd happy to attach..

Without the service privilege, it would be bad reputation for Apple.

We will all quote you when any forummers ask about international warranty for their iphones or if they failed to RMA their international sets.
