Been looking around, some website says the XS comes with 120hz screen while some says no... which is true?

Another trick from Apple to make people think it is 120Hz refresh rate. sad.gif There is no upgrade whatsover for the IP XS. They just bump up the processor.
*
Yeah, I supposed Apple would be selling it hard if they had 120Hz display on. Oh well... just the usual Apple thing.

On the side note, it has extra RAM tongue.gif 3GB to 4GB from X.

just found out that the price of apple products selling in HK is much cheaper than SG

I think mainly cause HK doesn't have tax for electronics right? As I know stuffs like camera lens also cheaper there.

Now... I need to look for a friend who is flying to HK... rclxm9.gif

But I’m curious about the warranty though, since the dual sim is different from the eSIM one we’ll receive here.

Ahh, that didn't come across my mine haha... shocking.gif

QUOTE(zerohunter @ Sep 21 2018, 11:57 AM)
I chose to get it from T&L as they provide seller warranty (send back to HK) IF local AASP doesn't honor the warranty for HK set.

Where can I view this shop? T&L?

i made the decision to get from T&L instead of waiting for MY set is bcos i looked back at last year ipX launch.

In US, ipX 64gb was sold at $999 , while in MY it was RM5149. I assume the new XS starting price ($999) will take the RM5149 slot in MY, compare to the XS max T&L selling at RM5349 (after Rm150 coupon) is consider reasonable and cheap.

Where to get this coupon ya?

Can you please attach a copy of the transcript stating that Apple let you claim warranty for Aus set/Hong Kong Set?

The conversation below with Apple Support confirmed that there is NO WARRANTY  for Hong Kong iPhone XS MAX dual sim in Malaysia.

"At this time", I guess its because MY have not launched the XS yet?

Isn't the price standard as per RRP as the retailer at Changi is an AASP?
*
Yes, but at the airport you can buy without tax. 7%.

QUOTE(attw @ Sep 21 2018, 06:33 PM)
I think if you buy at the retailer (iStudio) at Changi Airport itself, the phone is tax exempt so it's minus 7% directly

That's right, there's both the prices displayed. I converted and price was about the same as HK (minus the long queue too).

I think many here already bought their unit and some even received it, no additional cost or fees for custom according to them..

Good to hear that, placed my order for the 256 GB. Initially wanted 64 GB cause the best buy... but then think again since I snap a lot of videos of my baby girl.. and this is 4K... so yeah going for the 256 GB instead. Gold color yay!

I've been waiting for a gold color with black screen... this time, wish granted hehe. Time to survey for case and temper glass biggrin.gif. Gonna check out Solid Suit first.

IPad and iPhone 8 gold was aluminium frame.. This time is a stainless frame, the colour is not cast into the frame or painted.
This is purely gold colour on the frame.

Oh what I meant was the on the screen side, normally silver and gold color are using white face.

for those bought from qoo10 T&L, just wondering if open box and found defect like green line or any other issues, what do you guys do? send it back to T&L for 1 to 1 replacement? or contact qoo10?

Deal with T&L I guess, main reason why I bought from T&L is they got service to claim warranty for you.
