I changed my ip8+ to iphone xr and Im really glad that I did it. Camera is damn awesome, face id success rate is higher than fingerprint, all is better for me, except that I miss 3D touch.
I'm happy I downgraded from the Xs Max to the Xr, hehe. Go figure

Lion city orange telco has esim support already. soon the red and green will follow. So next year I can really carry just one mobile phone instead of two already. hahaha.
Nice! Since M1 is in the same group as Celcom I wonder if they will be the ones to come up with it first for iPhones here.

proven that extra power does not help in speedding up the charging.
18w is already the max.
and apple has started selling the 18w usb-c charger that comes with ipad pro 2018.

Hmm.. Mous Clarity Vs Appe exclusive "COATING" clear case. Which one? Haha
That official case looks like it should cost not more than rm30 max. Don't think it offers any kind of substantial drop protection.

I think so, but I more wishing with 3rd party type c cable has a auto disconnected once it’s fully charged, same as type A cable right now.

Type C has a plenty of markets, need a MacBook charging cable will do, this is very user friendly.
Not need to bring a lightning cable along and out for travel
If your household own a android phones with type C can be use instantly 😅😀

That won't happen, but at least we'll get a USB C to lightning cable instead of a USB A one

Ya, I'm also a bit doubtful on the drop protection offered by all Apple's original case actually. They do look really classy though.

The case will provide same drop protection as compared to their other official cases. Only thing "special" is the scratch resistant coating they apply on their case, which covers the outside AND inside also. Transparent cases in the market dont apply this coating on their case

XR camera beats Galaxy S9+ and Pixel 2 phones, currently the best single camera out there...

Just wait for review. I doubt their coating is that special.

https://www.soyacincau.com/2018/12/07/iphon...camera-dxomark/ Coming from P20 Pro, i would say the XR camera is quite good but night mode P20 Pro is still the best.

Yes, 40pm but we acutally utilise 10mp. The rest is use for their zoom. Their zooming is really superb and leave other competitor to dust.
Below photo when taken on my ex P20 Pro.
