Nice. Max protection. I'm looking at the ultra hybrid though, to show off the phone colour .
I ordered online through Maxis online sometime last week and it came on the 1st Feb. Didint realise it was a public holliday, but Brightstar did send it as my address was in Selangor (PJ). The despatch did mentioned that fresh batch just arrived. Probably there was alot of orders. Keep on trying bro.

FYI Just checked with Maxis. XR 128Gb apart from Black, all other coulours are in stock.

Nah. Your good. The standard drain is 1% per month.

That should be ok. I have read somewhere that Apple will exchange your phone if the battery health hits <80% within the warranty period. FYI, my ip7 is ngam2 2y.o. and its at 86%. There is still reasonable battery life at least for another year IMO.

Yes. I updated all my iphones yesterday evening. Quite a small file, all done under 10 minutes. Workings are like normal.

Having bought and used both I’d say the XR is the most bang for buck. And the battery life is outstanding too!

does the thick bezel bothers you? contrary, does the xs max size really feels that much bigger in hand?

Coming from previous generation of iPhones, trust me, the XR’s bezels won’t bother you after you’ve had some time to get used to it smile.gif

And yes, the XS Max really feels bigger in the hand coz it’s like the size of the iPhone 8 Plus but it’s all screen, making it harder to use single-handed. That said the XR is not really comfortable for single-handed usage too.

Like you said, the higher the price of the phone, the more the depreciation, and that’s a factor to consider if you’re thinking of letting it go when the next iPhone is announced, which is merely 6-7 months away.

indeed. I'm expecting apple to be super aggressive on their pricing for the upcoming new models which deteriorate xs/xr value further.

Seems the retailers in China are already slashing prices coz the phones haven't been selling well. And Tim Cook has said during the last quarter results call that moving forward they may price iPhones in accordance to local currency given how strong the USD is, so yeah, you may be right.
