But I dunno what to do with it... Apple brand paper weight? L😂L

Well, if you’re not using it anymore, I think you can still easily fetch 600-700 for it in the used phone market smile.gif

Better than being an expensive paperweight biggrin.gif

if buy out right, definitely not worth. but re-contract and topped up ~S$400, I just take the plunge since I want the eSim feature. not really getting excited over it, every year also change iPhone, kinda use to it already.

Good deal. So what happens to your X now, you'll sell it? I recall you just got it back from a warranty claim.

Power Delivery are here, you guy can decide to get PD 18w from AliExpress now. It’s way cheaper for today.

Look what I found on AliExpress
https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/bML4uJrp

the Xiaomi 65W PD is the most faster charging than all here.

Can open mini market selling PD adapters laugh.gif

18W not as fast but still consider fast charged
I don’t have experience yet, yesterday carry 11 inch iPad Pro, it’s lighter weight but I felt that 12.8 inch more suitable for me.
*
Ok la, faster than the current 10W/12W iPad charger smile.gif

Can't wait for the iPad Pros to arrive on our shores!

Haha... wait your personal reviews... don’t forget to tag on me 👌👌

To be honest in my life’s , I have never enjoy to owned any ipad before.

It’s quite heavy for me, again there is no mouse for me.
Actually there is touch screen but my iPhone XS Max will replace the iPad Pro anytime.

Unless I really do like artworks on ipad then buy for use a works should be more worth it.
*
Haha, will do, will do. I keep an iPad around to watch movies/videos when I'm traveling for work, and it's also better for replying emails - though due to iOS' file management limitations it is by no means the perfect work tool... Hopefully the new USB C port will open up so possibilities in the future.

You can try SanDisk iXpand external flash drive. SanDisk got its own app for user to access the files from the flash drive. I have been using it for transferring media files and documents between PC and iOS devices. The downside is this flash drive quite expensive.
*
Ya, which is why I've never gotten one smile.gif

Anyways, now that the new iPad Pro has a USB C and not the proprietary lightning connector, hopefully SanDisk will come up with new flash drives for iOS that cost less!

Depending on which brand of external hard drive, WD one previously couldn’t be accessed in both platforms, now not sure WD has any improvement on this. Seagate external hard drive is accessible in both Mac n Window. There is a software in the hard drive for users to install to enable the users using in both platforms.

So far I don't have any issues interconnecting any of my portable hard drives to Mac or Windows - maybe older hard drives?

Possible they may not sell it separately, don't see it being listed on Apple SG website even though the iPad Pros are already being sold there

Not eSIM, using HK set.
No... but it disappeared now.

I got this when I switched my older maxis sim card to a new one recently (the wear and tear on the old one was getting to me). Then I went back to the Mobile Data settings and selected Sim 1 for my data plan again and the problem was solved.

Either that or they are misinformed.

All the same, I’d avoid turbo SIM sets if I were you.

The only advantage is cheap. But it’s quite troublesome actually due to reset is required after software update if not mistaken.

Right, not worth the hassle, imho.

Weird enough after few days the my iOS app pending updates, it finally updated even when not connected to power 🤔

On my side, I noticed some apps update automatically while connected to WiFi but one or two apps still require manual update. Not sure if it’s the app itself.

last few pages someone shared xs from t&l able to claim in machine, no one share xs max yet...

Yeah, coz the XS Max from HK has dual physical SIM, which is different from our local set but the XS is similar i.e. eSIM + physical SIM.
