The difference between a hairline crack and a scratch is very noticeable. If possible, maybe go to a different service centre and get a second opinion, perhaps Switch or MacCity.
Price wise, it’s a bargain. RM3699 for a flagship when that amount cant even get you a 128GB iPhone XR at RRP. Apple needs to wake up. As for the phone’s performance, errr, I’ll let you know after I test it laugh.gif

Problem is Apple does not care about pricing of other brand phones, they just worry their profit only. Since every year they know the number of ppl changing iphones getting less and less, they also jack up the price higher to show their shareholders that the profit is increasing every year.

Got a Zerolemon for just MYR86 after rebate (normal price is MYR349) via Amazon but now it’s in my friend house - have to wait for him to come back (dunno when)

RM86 very good price leh compared to Mophie or Apple battery case
But still prefer to use powerbanks instead of battery case, and with the XR i dont even need to use powerbank bcos battery last whole day even though whatsapp and call alot

Correct me if i'm wrong....but the whole purpose of eSim in the XR is bcoz the phone only allow 1 sim to be inserted but it supports dual sim mode right? in other words, its best to make our local number to eSim while the overseas sim card to be inserted in the phone right? have u tried it already?
*
Correct. Phone support 2 sims, but 1 is physical sim and 1 is esim. Only china / hk iphone sets have 2 slots for physical sim

I dont travel often, so the travelling convenince dun really apply to me. I do have 2 numbers though, so now i dont have to carry 2 phones with me

I doubt can we turn off the esim when we travel to oversea because sometimes we didnt apply for roaming

In the settings there got option to "Turn On This Line", so i guess can off the eSIM when u travel overseas

I'm sure this has been asked before but pls humor me here.
Is it worth to switch to the iPhone XR from the X?

Looking for a bigger screen upgrade. XS max is too big and heavy.  Size wise the XR is just nice.

Owners can comment on the long term screen clarity(LCD) , camera and one hand usability compared to the X?

Thanks.
*
Screen wise - I dont notice the difference, unless you put the X and XR side by side (which I wont be doing anyway). If not the screen is very good IMO
Camera - I nvr used the zoom / portrait mode on the X, so I dont feel any difference when using the XR
One Hand Usability - For me, not so comfortable to use it 1 hand compared to the X. But I have no problems using 2 hands
Battery Life - The main reason I changed to the XR. It has the BEST BATTERY LIFE among all iPhones to date
3D Touch - Surprisingly I do miss the 3D touch abit as I use it, though I can live without it

For case. I prefer Nomad leather case, since XR dont have any official leather case. the horween leather feels real good. slim case too.

Ya i agree the Nomad leather case is noce to use nod.gif
Am currently using the Mous bamboo case

Full protection, slim, classy, nice grip and feel. Ticks all the criteria for me. Mous not yet try. Coz i just bought solidsuit and nomad. Around 400 d cry.gif
Solidsuit is so thick and wide. OMG.
How is the Mous compared to nomad and solidsuit?
*
Didnt use solidsuit, but my guess is it would almost be the same experience as their Mod NX with backplate. Rhinoshield cases are nice, but problem is the sides are slippery. Mous case dont have this issue

Mous case is slightly heavier than the Nomad. I chose the bamboo, so cant do direct comparison with Nomad. Nomad case effortless to remove, Mous case need abit force to remove from phone

Wanted to try Mous companion accessories like the magnet wallet, but see the price quite expensive so didnt buy sweat.gif

I previously used the Playproof series for my older iphone, so i know what you mean brows.gif need to wrestle abit with the phone to remove when the casing is new, but after awhile it bcom easier

Look like slimmer than the mod nx hmm.gif but not very sure bcos quite awhile since i used the mod nx

how much is the replacement set for the back cover at authorised shop?

Back glass crack is the worst for iPhone, as the back glass cant be replaced like the front screen. Apple will replace the whole phone, and charge you for refurbished price. Get ready for RM2k+ repair if go back to Apple 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

The only product I’m not convinced would be the Apple Watch. I can buy a limited edition seiko tuna. I could live with a diver watch instead of a high tech watch lolol.

Depends on whether you use the functions of the Apple Watch
If you nvr use the functions and only tell the time, then better to go with other "dumber" watches nod.gif
