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!? Apple call it a Seed unit. It is actually a refurbished unit that is thoroughly checked and battery replaced to make it perform like new. |

QUOTE(tenakira @ Nov 10 2018, 05:11 PM) 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  Better than being an expensive paperweight  |

Yes, because $400 purchasing value in spore is similar to rm400 in malaysia. So rm400 to upgrade is very much worth it. QUOTE(Hinoarashi9 @ Nov 10 2018, 11:33 PM) X to X🅂 Worth the upgrade? |

QUOTE(attw @ Nov 10 2018, 07:33 AM) Looks good, but why not get the ori Apple leather case if you're already paying that much? Or you can get the less elegant alternative I've been using Apple Leather Case quite some time since iPhone 6, was thinking to try something new. |

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