There is also no option to turn HDR on only in iPhone X, you can only opt for Auto or Off
*
iPhone X have this, but Xs is changed to Smart HDR sweat.gif instead of Auto HDR
just curios is if Auto/Smart HDR is off, when open Camera App, the HDR toggle is there
but with Auto/Smart HDR on, when open Camera App, the HDR toggle is not there

Why can’t telco? If use in Malaysia there’s no diff right ?
*
i believe telco set can be locked if the seller didnt continue paying monthly
just like maxis here, two years contract get subsidized on iPhone, if the seller didnt pay monthly... then the iPhone will get locked

a bit risk buying telco set, i wouldnt say it is dangerous biggrin.gif but the risk is there

to me, buying telco set only from your friend, maybe someone in real life we use to know

Hmm I thought someone previously said if sg telco set, only risky if use in sg...if use in Msia then no issue since it's unlocked? By legislation I think sg telco set doesn't have lock anymore right ? (Based on sg hardwarezone statement)

Btw if sg sealed set means not telco set right ? Coz telco need to open box for activation?
*
the telco lock not same like US telco lock, those US telco lock suppose to work with the only telco the iPhone purchase from
it is like Maxis here, if i buy maxis subsidized iPhone with contract, it will be unlocked iPhone but if i didnt pay monthly... maxis can lock the phone by doing something biggrin.gif
all SG telco set is unlocked set, but if they subsidized the phone for their customer with 2 years contract, they will have some protection in case somebody dont continue to pay just like what maxis did here.

it could be true if SG telco set use in MY, telco like Singtel cannot lock the phone, but who can confirm this sweat.gif

just like an example i can think of, if a maxis subscriber sell their maxis subsidized iPhone to Dig/Celcom/any other telco user, and he/she didnt continue to pay monthly... maxis can lock the phone, this confirm can be done, but the buyer not using maxis sim card on that iPhone, i dont know how they did that biggrin.gif

yup. Last time iphone 8 plus vs iphone x, it is still big deal due to the design everything.

now iphone XR is pretty much identical to iphone Xs just single camera, 3GB ram difference and no 3D Touch, it is not a big deal.

As an existing iphone X user now, if given a choice again, I will certainly pick iphone XR over iphone Xs or Xs Max.
I am existing iphone x user, I can confirm that oled is not a big deal and the difference is certainly not day and night. At most 90% vs 100% kind of difference.

this is so true smile.gif just that Xr i feel too big d, because i never like plus version... have to get Xs due to i want to remain smaller phone

I am on iPhone X. Previously on iPhone SE and 6 plus.

I would say that iPhone X or Xs is still small. Iphone XR 6.1 or iPhone Xs Max 6.5 inch screen will be better.

i will still prefer iPhone 6/7 size if can biggrin.gif

Exactly.. now I realized. Their bussiness model is they order in bulk from china & put their own brand. Probably grade c products since some have complaint that the cut outs for ports were not as precise. Very huge margin with that kind of bussiness model.
*
most probably they (US or any Western country) design the case, then manufacture in China, and China make those knock off so much cheap sweat.gif but i could be wrong, where China make it first then those western country just re-brand to its own brand and sell at USD15++

to those western country people they feel cheap, but at the same material and quality, i can get around RM15 (after convert from RMB20-25) laugh.gif
