QUOTE(celciuz @ Nov 8 2018, 01:28 PM) Doesn't matter how much capacity the PD charger has, the iPhone only capable of 18W charging. So far the best sweet spot for now is 2.4A (12W) charger with the standard cable. You can still use the cable outside as the Type A is widely available compared to the Type C. That’s a no brainer especially if you also own an iPad. No additional cost incurred

QUOTE(kebeckham7 @ Nov 8 2018, 09:41 PM) xs max my set swap with xs max hk set u want to swap too? maxis, since i cant go to KL , i think i wont be able to get esim before depart too Riau. I’m not sure if it’s a good deal since you have to top up 300 coz HK set is already cheaper vs local set. But if you really need dual SIM and seeing how time is limited, I guess you don’t have any other options?

QUOTE(kebeckham7 @ Nov 9 2018, 08:27 AM) my data is already 89gb,  . I need atleast 256gb for xs max. during work trip it will consume more. but thank you. yeah, that's the thing I can buy original apple usb type c cable and 30 watt apple charger with 300 ringgit. since she have new unbox HK set and I've 13 days old local set. I've nego with her to topup 100 ringgit. but no respons. I tried too google for plane tickets to KL. the adhoc price could get to 350-400. just to get esim  . very frustrated that I cant use the dual sim ability during work trip. normally we depart from KLIA but this time I'll be using ferry from Setulang Laut johor.  Yeah, your options are pretty limited considering your current location and the timeframe you have before your trip. If it's a newly sealed set then might be worth it.

QUOTE(Sitting Duck @ Nov 9 2018, 09:59 AM) Thanks. Notice that T&L is selling at cheaper price as well. Is the retail price of iPhone lower in Hong Kong ? Warranty wise the phone should be able to be service locally because of international warranty ? Yes, their retail price is lower than us but just slightly, due to their currency strengthening (or ours weakening, hahaha)... Warranty is a bit of a hit and miss - there is no international warranty for iPhones. However T&L has an office in MY that will handle warranty claims for phones purchased from them.

QUOTE(buyoq @ Nov 9 2018, 10:29 AM) Are you sure ? I successfully claimed warranty of my US set iPhone 7+ with Machines last year. I think it’s the same with Xs too,no? It’s a case to case basis based on the AASP’s discretion. We’ve shared and discussed the warranty issue over and over multiple times already. https://www.apple.com/legal/warranty/produc...ac-english.html

QUOTE(buyoq @ Nov 9 2018, 10:37 AM) Wow lucky me then haha I went to Machines The Curve and they accepted without hesitation lol. Sent for warranty,sold the phone then migrated to Android for a while. Couldn’t be bothered about Apple during that period  Ya, case to case basis. Hence need to be wary of anyone selling their overseas set claiming to have "international warranty". There isn't, really.

QUOTE(TOMEI-R @ Nov 9 2018, 04:04 PM) Maybe you could write out the steps and post it up here so others could learn too. Maybe even ask the sleeping TS of this thread to put this up on the first page. eSIM and also “international” warranty... We’ve discussed both of those ad nauseam, hahaha...

QUOTE(tenakira @ Nov 10 2018, 04:40 PM) I ask repeatedly is it refurbished, but the CS denied. Just said it’s brand new, same spec with mine. While it’s not sealed set, only the phone. EDIT: since they refused to replace the battery which initially I’m willing to pay for (rm121)... with additional rm78; I get a new / refurbished phone is better than my scratched / cancer (67% battery health) old iP6+ right!? Yes it is
