I'm currently using 5s and I think its time to upgrade. It has been more than 4 years though. So should I upgrade to X now or grab the Xs later? For me every penny counts biggrin.gif

If every penny counts then just grab the X preused, not much of a diff between x and xs, but price wise yes..

Hi guys
Can recommend me which iPhone to buy

No matter hw many times I change to Android, I still prefer iPhone..I think because of app quality..also tired with android bugs..phone will slow/lag after a year plus..using pixel 2 now.. still fast but so many problem with the phone..screen blue tint prob is still ok for me..but then come another bug..latest is no notification sound which is really annoying..only advantage of android is their camera and fast charging

Last highest model iPhone I used ip7 plus.. reason selling.. too huge.I think those bezel really big make it uncomfortable but then when I change to iphone se I feel like toy phone so small, change to 6s ..feels ok but the battery really sucks after iOS 11 .other reason is the Touch ID didn’t work that well for me but I think my finger hard to register..even pixel 2 also sometime not work.. only Samsung phone works well with my finger for some weird reason
*
If you think iPhone 7plus is too huge, then u should opt for an iPhone x or xs...smaller phone size with reasonably nice screen size...

Anyway, good choice on getting a dual sim HK unit. Pointless to get an esim unit as it wont be usable here, at least for now.

One more concrete excuse to get an XS Max now---- Dual sim standby on an Iphone.  tongue.gif attw

how about the warranty though? do you think it works here in Malaysia?

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.

T&L is US set, the warranty works here in Malaysia right?

sorry for asking a stupid question, but is this international set? if i bought from here where to claim warranty?

https://www.11street.my/productdetail/apple...iginal-67430989
*
this is from Apple Store HK...now we are all unsure if they allow HK set to claim warranty in Malaysia (due to dual sim vs eSim), we will find that out soon once we get it here in Malaysia, mostly mid oct..

EDIT: best if you check again with 11 street support if this is SG or HK set.

Apple claims 98% CSAT, so I think if the resellers here deny you a warranty claim, an email to Apple should help, especially after spending over RM5k on the phone.

true that, but anything could happen here... especially resellers tend to reject anything out of the norm..... #bolehland

another question is the replacement set a dual nano sim (hk set) or dual nano/esim (my set)

if Malaysia covers hk set, either they will give esim... or they will send back to hk to get replacement...

I do not reckon the warranty is about the iPhone XS Max not been launched in Malaysia yet.

iPhone XS and XS Max are available beginning today 21 September in more than 30 countries including Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, China, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Guernsey, Hong Kong, Ireland, Isle of Man, Italy, Japan, Jersey, Luxembourg, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, the UAE, UK, US and US Virgin Islands.

Apple support indicated that Hong Kong set iPhone XS Max can only be serviced and warranty in the listed countries because of its dual sim components:
Australia, China, Hong Kong, Japan, New Zealand, Singapore and UAE

*
I wonder why apple support only listed those 6 countries in specific, but not other countries like Sweden, Taiwan, UK and etc...

Bro no worry as it’s for international warranty.
Recently claimed US set.
Btw I’m using hk set for x
One thing make me thing to switch to xs is how it handle heat when high cpu usage. Play game get hot easily and making u lag.
*
I know hk set is international warranty, but the new xs runs on dual sim, and recently there's a discussion and feedback from apple support stating hk set warranty doesn't work in Malaysia...so if there is any issues we will have to send it back to hk ourselves...sweat.gif

Nope. Asked them yesterday. 2nd batch will arrive in Monday or Tuesday.
That’s why buy from local AP or T&L. Just give to them and let them do the rest. I also doubt MY will cover it too as dual sim version not in MY
*
T&L stated warranty by seller not by manufacturer....so there's a chance if anything goes wrong with the phone they will fix it for u and not send back to apple for warranty claim..

For cashback rebate, I use Shopback, you can try registering an account here but bear in mind there's a cap to the rebate and it takes typically two months or so before you can cash out.

And yes, coupons are released in limited quantities at 10am everyday.

Hmmm I just tried to click on the link, registered an account and click on 250 coupon, says that I have won...is that all? Thought only can do it at 10am? sweat.gif lol

The seller should specify in his listing, check and see.

Oh, and ya, your voucher expires by midnight.
Maybe 10/10 or 11/11? wink.gif

Hmm it only say shipping starts after 3 days from payment....not like Lazada shows ‘estimated delivery from xx date till xx date’ ...hmm

Anyone have an idea roughly when is the estimated delivery from qoo10?

T&L always fast shipping. 3 days from payment is just a safe play by them. In my case, always 3-4 days arrived after payment.

Ooo nice, urs from T&L also?
