QUOTE(biggbro9 @ May 20 2019, 05:45 PM) I'm in two minds between 8+ and XR. Guys, appreciate if you can give me the pros and cons of each device in terms of screen, battery and camera. I know the resolution of the older phone is higher but does it really show in everyday use? This will be my first purchase of an iPhone...thanks. I’ve used both and I strongly recommend the iPhone XR. The difference in screen resolution is hardly noticeable since both are LCD screens and the battery life of the XR is much better than the 8 Plus. The XR also takes better photos with the Smart HDR feature and newer ISP.

QUOTE(Sib @ May 21 2019, 11:32 PM) hey fellas, 1st time ios user here and just bought the yellow 128GB yesterday. a quick question, the bundled earphone should work correctly when plugged in, right? i can’t seem to get it working even though in music, gaming or even youtube, haven’t tested the 3.5mm dongle though. sorry if it’s a repeated or stupid question btw. much appreciated if anyone could share their experience. i wonder if the bundled accessories are covered under warranty. Yes, they are covered under warranty. I’d suggest you bring it back to an authorised service centre near you. I’ve never used the bundled earphones on any of my iPhones coz they don’t fit very nicely in my ears

QUOTE(Sib @ May 22 2019, 09:42 AM) 30mins to go before the store opens, i was browsing for the earpods prices and my God, those cheap looking earpods is expensive! 😅 anyways, does the iphone supports certain headsets when connected with the dongle? or any will do? Any will do, but make sure your dongle is the original one, or at least MFI certified.

QUOTE(anakMY @ May 24 2019, 02:29 PM) I hv made up my mind, I didnt buy it. In fact my 6s plus still works perfectly fine. I will just wait for another year. QUOTE(Chrono-Trigger @ May 24 2019, 02:42 PM) Wise decision I will get Iphone XR too, but not now. Iphone 7 still works fine, change battery maybe will last another 2-3 years lol. Yes, it does make sense to wait - till September at least This post has been edited by attw: May 24 2019, 07:29 PM

QUOTE(farkingdom @ May 28 2019, 09:11 AM) More like the opposite, Apple will increase the price. When Apple lost major revenue across China, and their manufacturing ‘cheapness’ and move manufacturing elsewhere, prices will increase. This Trump trade war has some sceptic and analyst predict Apple will increase their prices across all Apple product unless Apple absorbed the cost themselves. Their iPhone numbers don’t look great, any more hike in prices will result in Cook having to fend off unhappy investors. September is gonna be interesting  For now, let’s see what iOS 13 has in store for us next week!

QUOTE(westlife @ May 28 2019, 10:24 AM) main reason for poor sales should be due to the fact that 1) current model of iphones are over-powered. starting from iphone 6/6+. it means the power of the current model is way exceeding the current needs. thus even after 5 years or more, it still feel usable. that's why people are not changing phones as often as before. 2) durability. i think no one will disagree that apple products has strong durability which it makes no excuse for one to change their iphones due to the spoiled or whatever reason. 3) design - no major design breakthrough from iphone 6/6+ until iphone X. no major reasons to change since it still looks similar. 4) iOS support - iOS has supported any older iphones for at least up to 5 years. old phone users can still enjoy a lot of the new features like new phones. again this gives no excuse for people to change phones. Yeah, good points. I wonder if iOS 13 will discontinue support for both iPhone 5S and 6 in order to force those people (including yourself) to upgrade hahaha...

QUOTE(adriankhoo153 @ May 30 2019, 08:50 AM) Yes, UH discolouration, SUP Supcase also same, and currenty using Xone also same. All turn yellowish. But not obvuis as my phone is black. Now paste carbon fiber sticker to the xone since it came foc. [attachmentid=10255979] Don’t sweat it bro, my Apple Store exclusive Otterbox Vue also yellow already, hahaha... So doesn’t matter whether the case is cheap or expensive, as long as it is a clear one, it will eventually turn yellow...

QUOTE(anakMY @ Jun 1 2019, 09:23 AM) My wife complaining of slow charging , she’s using stock charger which comes with the phone. Previously she’s using iPhone SE The battery size is double that of the SE and she’s using the stock charger (which is the same as the SE stock charger), so you can do the math bro  A USB C PD adapter and USB C to lightning cable will help get the phone from 0-80% charge faster, but will cost quite a bit. If you have an iPad 10W or 12W adapter, that will help charge it faster as well. It still won’t be as fast as those warp charge, VOOC charge, etc. that Android has though. If you choose to stick with the stock charger, let it charge overnight. That’s the least frustrating option. This post has been edited by attw: Jun 1 2019, 09:31 AM

QUOTE(anakMY @ Jun 1 2019, 11:14 AM) Any good brands to intro? I hv an Aukey charger with 4 USB ports , but it doesn’t hv fast charge feature. Cheaper options would be Baseus and Ugreen, more branded ones would be Anker and Aukey. Just search “USB C PD Charger” and you’ll see lots of options. QUOTE(JayC75 @ Jun 1 2019, 12:31 PM) the dual sim feature, is it dual standby? if yes can choose to activate which data line to use? Yes, you can.
