Hi guys,

I am contemplating getting XS 256GB over at Osaka Apple Store.
After conversion is around RM4,772.00.
It sim card slot same as Singapore, nano and esim.

Compare to Singapore set, it is cheaper or more expensive?

I will test the camera sound click loudness, and if really loud, then will forego the purchase.

Warranty and 2 pin charger is no issue for me.

Thanks guy.

RM5599 after coupon discount. Can beat your Japan deal?

Japan Apple website price for 256 XS Max is 142,800 Yen exlclude tax.
Conversion to Ringgit is around RM5,208.00.

Looks like evenly match :-)

Since happen to be in the neighbourhood, looks like good bargain, yea even if the charger adaptor is 2 pin type.

Hahaha, yes of course.
If the loudness is at acceptable level, then guess is ok.

So bad of Japan iphone, like that no more resell value

Well, it is very subjective as very much depend on buyer and seller.
Say my iPhone 8 Plus 32gb, newly purchased last 3 month ago.
Though it is a Malaysian set, I think I am gonna have a hard time selling at reasonable price LOL.

Any taker by the way ?
