Why? You have similar issue?

nah there was a case back then i posted in this forum too where my front glass suddenly cracked

so i went and ask machines service centre, they claimed this crack not covered by Apple citing the screen still works and i probably dropped it instead and dismissed my case

problem is its right middle of screen and theres no physical evidence of a drop or hit sweat.gif

After spending 4.8k on both my iPhone X and XS Max each, I've reached a realization that no phone is worth above RM4k. So yeah, no more buying iPhones above RM4k outright for me too smile.gif

hahah this!

really just cant justify at all

the pricing for apple iphones are just insane. like USD1k samsungs and huawei are just RM3.7k

why the heck are apple's RM4.9k? :x

I think the qns should be if this is so obvious in terms of price competition, why not ppl just go for the better value choice instead? 😜

pretty much, while ill say the new phones are in right to be expensive, but they are not that expensive

why my selfie xr camera always get blurry image with the group photos ya? I do have screen protector install cover the cam module except for the speaker. Does the screen protector would affect the picture quality?
*
i had a feeling the selfie cam is more of a selfie, where the focal length focus on closer things than the further one

i noticed iphone selfies look good if close up, but for wider photos it becomes a blur mess

It’s not bokeh effect and it’s not sharp as well. Just slight blurry.
*
i think i mentioned this before, its apple's algorithm for selfies

its more or less designed in a way where it focuses on one/two close subject at one time, leaving the rest as blurry

doesnt help that the front cam isnt the greatest quality, being 7MP at best while other behemoths out there sporting 12-24MP

Lol, I didn’t notice at all until now. Have been using my xr since Oct!

it appeared early for me too haha

but it went away after awhile, or i didnt notice it anymore

QUOTE(sramesh @ Jun 8 2019, 05:01 PM)
I didn’t notice such blur in the XS Max. Rightfully everything should be in focus for selfies unless we choose portrait mode.
*
yeah thats what i thought too, but sometimes even with single lens i am still able to introduce the "bokeh effect"

i just changed my battery last year during the apple battery special price promo for iphones.

now still at 100% battery capacity.  tongue.gif

so certainly the battery can last for another 5 years easily.

dun ever use third party battery. and dun change any parts at ah beng shop.

this

i got some cheap battery from lazada for ip6

not even 6 months and already battery in Settings is 59% eventhou its used as alarm clock

You replace the battery on your own? How did u get the setting to show battery health? I thought only battery replacement at authorized service centre can do that
*
according to peeps, sometimes it shows. sometimes it doesnt

so it may not be the most accurate. but it is showing pretty well since the battery life for a "new" battery isnt great at all eventho the device is just an alarm clock

Wondering how convenient eSim is. What if I restore the phone or erase all contents (restore to factory settings)? Usually it will happen when the phone got problem or you accidentally remove some important stuff and you need to restore back to older backup. Or just simply got issue and need to wipe out the phone and setting it back.

Will the telco that I subscribed eSim to still active? Or I need to walk in the telco center to scan the new QR code to reactive back my line?
*
should be still active, you just need rescan the barcode again to apply IINM

I don’t think so... i use 3rd party fast charging on xs max and playing while charging... still 100% after use... it’s depend u got golden battery or not... just like intel cpu some golden cpu can overclock higher some cant even it’s the same type of cpu
*
lol we have golden battery like golden CPU now?

ill say one thing only la, dont trust the battery health thing too much. its sometimes skewed

the rule of thumb remain, the more charging cycle and usage of the device the faster it dies. thats that haha

my friend belasah his XS with gaming, waze, browsing etc and his one already 86%? and he bought it months after my XR lol
