If you are talking about 32-bit iOS app, if the dev did not update them, you will not be able to download in iOS 12 (and I think even in iOS 11). iOS 12 is 64 but only.

No one talks about Qi charging? Will constantly Qi charging lower the life span of your battery?

On Friday, I am collecting pre order from maxis centre. What time should I be there? I am trying not to take leave and I think I can get away if the wait is just an hour max. But I am not sure - if there are too many people, it's not fair to the company I work with.

Ugh.. and I think I made the mistake of choosing maxis IPC - coz shopping center maxis should only open at 10am right?

you mean you also paid online already during the pre order (or you chose a zerolution plan) - and yet, collecting has so many people in queue? Alamak, like that must go 7pm liow.

Thanks for sharing the link. Can the Morphie also charge Apple Watch? I’m not referring to charging both iPhone and Watch at the same time but whether it can also charge Watch only.

So I just did a quick Google on whether wireless charging will damage battery and here is an interesting article I found:

This article seems to suggest that I can also use the 61w adaptor from MacBook Pro 13" to charge the iPhone XS... real or not?

So if I want this phone, I just need to pay a little to get it.

Problem is, I have to do the manual 1st day hunt again laugh.gif

Looks like it's gonna be fun running around KL area for a phone.... Again.

Did it last year and didn't expect to do it again this year.

Couldn’t get in during pre order or what?

I have extra iPad 10W charger. I should be able to use this to charge XS Max, right? Better than the one Apple supplied in the box which is 5W.

My Friend he did his iPhone 6 Plus all the time with 10w charger from ipad.
It’s work well.

I am doing that with my current 6 Plus. But I'd like my upcoming X Max to last longer (battery life) and so I wonder if I should use 10W or the default 5W?

I also have the MacBook Pro 61W and a Apple USB-C to Lightning cable (company issue) but I guess I will only use this Fast Charge as a last minute - in case in a rush and need battery !

My intent is to prolong the battery life as long as possible...

My 6 plus charged 2 times per day... using Apple, Anker and Aukey chargers with original cable.. after 4 years it is 87%.

My iPhone 6 Plus also last quite long. I think it is the charging habits.
On the OTHER HAND, we should live our life to the fullest and not be constraint by a device ..
So, I kinda want to break the mentality - I admire the other guys colleague who charge daily in office and does not care.
I also admire people who can just drop it on a Qi charger without care..

Why stress over battery? hmm.gif sweat.gif whistling.gif

Yes , as i write earlier. My charging habit is almost same. I charge whenever i can in car , office , home , overnight , powerbank. My battery rarely drop below 70% everyday. My 6s plus stilk hold 90% charge after 3 years of this practice. My 8 plus is same charging habit and the only difference is i use wireless charge during the night. After 10 months the health is at 90% . Thats why i never use wireless charge anymore.

Thanks for sharing. You just saved me RM279 as I was considering the switch.com.my offer of a Mophie wireless charger! I rather charge at any opportunity than charging via wireless notworthy.gif
