attw, I plan to get the Xs max 64gb gold. I don’t think it will be a frenzied sale this time round. I will go survey around next weekend.

Ok cool, yeah, I’m quite sure you can take your time and hunt for good deals - maybe 11.11 sale? smile.gif

Well that was posted on oct 12 hmm.gif don’t think maxis offers eSim for postpaid now right?
*
Well, that's because not yet officially launch ma, and also technically, eSIM not supported yet by the new iPhones till iOS 12.1 if not mistaken...

QUOTE(ftan @ Oct 16 2018, 09:07 PM)
I wanna buy by this month. Someone wants my IPX already and there is still >1 month warranty left. I’m starting to get interested in shopping for the phone and accessories. Hehe.

How is your phone so far? Congrats on getting it today.
*
Ahh, Ok, nice. If not mistaken, you'd want a flip case right? wink.gif
Ya, my phone was delivered today but I haven't "received" it yet coz I'm actually away on a business trip at the moment and won't be back till Friday. so the phone is still sitting nicely in the box laugh.gif

QUOTE(TOMEI-R @ Oct 16 2018, 09:16 PM)
I was at The Gardens Machine and they didnt have anything for the Iphone Xs and Xs Max yet... The staff there told me its because the phone is not launched yet with one kind of look. laugh.gif
*
Did you flash your Xs Max at them and have another priceless moment? Hehehe...

Don't know...

No bro. But by the look he gave me, I think he knows I have one in my pockets already. laugh.gif
But the best was at Citibank DP 2 weeks ago when I was complaining that the Citibank app didnt work. So the reception reffered me to a CS who straightaway went on babling about how we need to download the app from Appstore and install it on our phones (Duh, like we dont know how to do that). She then showed me her Iphone X and went on to show me how hers is working bla bla bla.. before asking me what Iphone I was using. Needless to say when I showed her the phone and told her I replaced the phone she was holding with the new Xs Max, it was another Mastercard moment..."Priceless". laugh.gif
Anyway, my problem was not solved and she went on babling that the Phone is still not launched and so the app is not compatible with the phone etc. I told her off that the phone has been launched around the world amd Citibank being a global bank should have been ready for it.
Anyway, the Citibank app has been updated now and is up and running.

Hope it was a pretty CS you were hitting on though laugh.gif

Haha he will probably sell you at cost price 4799, since he always wanna get rid of it tongue.gif

Hahaha, if I do sell, it’s because I’m probably regretting now that I didn’t pick a 256GB instead (so it can last a couple of years longer for my wife later on). Then again, looking at what the HK sets cost now, I think I got mine at a steal smile.gif


QUOTE(Reventon @ Oct 17 2018, 01:19 AM)
How come in market all HK set , what i mean is nobody bother to bring CN set ? Both any difference in band ?

iPhones are expensive in China. That’s why you see many Chinese buying from Apple Store Orchard Road!

Can search from websites they are talking about China set has FaceTime issue

Not sure. Maybe they are referring to FaceTime audio, coz I know some telcos block this due to loss of their revenue.

there're no restriction on using facetime in china as long as your handset supports it. iphone china set does not support facetime audio/video.

Could be another reason why many of them buy from overseas

QUOTE(peri peri @ Oct 17 2018, 11:11 AM)
hi, last 2 weeks i bought a front TG from ninjaz for Rm25 so called 6D, no idea what its means. quite thick and curved edge.

But do i need to get another back TP as well?

The guy mentioned TG can protect screen when fall. I still dont get it how the TG can protect screen when fall.

Those app in appstore the comment all said its broken and not working. It is a simple programming code to allow dual whatsapp. I believe third party developer have submitted for it to be release but somehow Apple dont approve. I dont mind pay for the app. I just want it to work its troublesome now to have 2 phone with me one solely for 2nd whatsapp.
*
Maybe with 12.1 since that will be the release that enables eSIM.

Finally installed the Hoda TG on my Max...trust me fellas, don’t use the free TG or any cheapo TG coz it changes the whole user experience to the next level...I’m like using a diff phone now with this Branded TG..biggrin.gif

P/S: I still think the side border line somewhat blocks the screen by a little tongue.gif

haha im going to compare with my friend's max without border later.. it does feel the screen being blocked a little.... its just out of curiousity... im not OCD, just want an answer haha
many branded TG here but i've used Hoda on my 7+ and X and became a fan of it now..
got it from Sakurazz RM 89 he install for me....the dust is actually not under the TG, its at the line between TG and the phone... a simple wipe would clear that.... i didn't wipe to that extend before taking pic la.. just a reference lol

Sakura also recommended me a back camera TG for RM9 which i didn't go with it.. coz (1) i somewhat worry it will affect the photo quality (2) my X didnt had any scratches after a year using.. so i think back camera TG is unnecessary for me..

Nice... Ok, will think about buzzing him this weekend...
