True fast charging PD adapter+cable can get for around 80. Still much cheaper compared to 12w ipad charger

rm249 at machine, XR onwards 349 or 359 if i rmb correctly. as for battery health, should be 100% since it is new battery. On some case, people complaint it start with 99%

Thanks, do you know how long it takes for them to replace a battery? Can they do like on the spot?

Actually if based on RRP, Malaysia cheaper, unless you buy from Changi Airport and have tax exemption. If you mean the ones on Carousell, then yeah, SG much cheaper smile.gif
Coz even if it gets blocked in SG it can still be used in MY? Hehe...
Personally I wouldn’t buy an iPhone now coz the new ones will be announced in 5 months or less. Even if it takes longer to reach our shores, the current one will get a price cut.

Switch is currently replacing batteries for RM199, which I think is a good deal.

Thanks, would you like to answer my question above? Meanwhile, will they release something like XRs in coming September? 😂 dont think i will buy the most expensive one. For current one, i will rank Xs Max would be the best, 2nd i will say XR, then third Xs. After all, XR will be a value buy.

If you make an appointment with them and bring it to them in the morning, I think you should be able to get it back in 2-3 hours.

Don’t know what they release in September but I think there will definitely be a follow-up to the XR. I’ve used the XS Max and am now using the XR. For me personally, the XS Max price isn’t justified. The XR is more than sufficient.

Does anyone know how to detect fake iPhone cables? I have 3 cables with me and I know one is fake. Two are original but they all look the same and I don’t know which is which. I interchange them frequently.. one in my bag, one in the car one in my room lol.

No issues. MFI just one tactic from Apple to suck from oem manufacturers.
PD and normal charging like sky and earth difference
