QUOTE(mamamia @ Nov 24 2018, 02:45 PM) I believe is based on foreign currency.. they might have old stock for 64gb which brought in to Malaysia at lower price Even by foreign currency i believe it wont drop so much right? Sometime just wonder lol but good thing can get alot cheaper than rrp. Recent year Apple seems lenient on claiming oversea set which is good for consumers as well. |

QUOTE(attw @ Nov 26 2018, 01:31 PM) This. Too bad those Android big boy manufacturers like samsung,huawei etc are leveraging on Apple pricing as well. The pricing is not really far and taking in the depreciation factor i think its much more the same. Years ago Android wasn’t an option as it was laggy and had all sort of problems. But now they aren’t far behind. If they solve a few more kinks and start putting 5000mAh batteries in their flagships I can see myself finally deciding to move for good if Apple continues this trend. Can imagine a day will come when they ask for $1999 for an entry level iPhone. I’ve left Android for a few years , is selling off Android flagship within a year difficult ? I mean letting go at market value like Huawei Mate 20 or Note Series. Given now there are so many choices out there with decent spec for Android, i guess its much more harder to sell off android flagship after a year compared to iPhone, of course we can dispose it off eventually if we can sell it cheaper. I personally like Android as well and i tend to upgrade my phone twice a year when i use Android lol. That make me spend more than buying iPhone once a year |

Using mcdodo autocut off cable and notice quite sometime since iphone 8 plus. The phone will stop charging ( % will just not going up ) when the phone is warm. Blowing the phone with aircond and make it cool make the % went up again.
This is heating protection ? I dont remember 6s have this. Only notice it on iphone 8 plus and xs max. |

QUOTE(attw @ Feb 4 2019, 07:13 AM) I have both the McDodo and Baseus auto disconnect cables and haven't experienced those issues. What adapter are you using bro? Using belkin car charger and ipad air charger. Both have similar behaviour. Whenever phone is warm. The charge seems stop and only resume when the phone temperature went down. Very strange indeed. Tried using ori cable and mcdodo also same. Mcdodo cable when it does not charge the led goes green and then the led turned off.That's the reason Apple uses to justify the 5W charger bundled with such an expensive phone. "We help you preserve your phone's battery health by minimizing heat during charge" Ouch, painful. Ok la, tahan few more months then change to the next iPhone If there's a "Suprima Max" that's bigger than the XS Max, it might as well be a tablet, haha. How does the battery life of the XS compare to the X? It's a smaller capacity battery on paper but I wonder how it holds up in real life usage. |
