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.

QUOTE(attw @ May 22 2019, 09:30 AM) 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  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?

QUOTE(anakMY @ May 23 2019, 08:59 PM) Ahhhh dam should I buy it, any advice? Still in dilemma if u don’t mind the lcd screen, 3GB RAM and single camera lens, i say go for it! imho, this xr will definitely serve me more than a year. decent battery capacity, great lcd screen (of course can’t compare with oled 😅) and currently the most powerful A12 chip. good camera too not to mention

apart from the xr, i’ve also bought 7+ for my wife. i’ll be more than happy if it lasts for more than 2 years, in terms of software support.
anyways, i’ve recently installed cpu-x, and noticed RAM usage has been over 80% most of the time thus using the app, cleaned the RAM.
is it really necessary to clean it up just like android phones?

QUOTE(keny312 @ Jun 4 2019, 08:43 AM) Good for u, I found out one more things on my faulty XR. I try cool it down by place it into a air conditioned room and the unit work fine for the Face ID and I even can set up new Face ID. But when it on data/ WiFi / or idle, the unit turn warm and battery drain like 10% in an hour. The Face ID failed again. Guess mine really have serious problem. Damn.....really disappointing with these issue appearing. oh my, damn that is really frustrating. do share if local sc does help even though not malaysia set.

QUOTE(BuKeYi @ Jun 14 2019, 10:13 AM) so far didn't have any issue yet, maybe try reset your network setting to see if it help. Or try restart your phone 1st. probably is software issue, if above method still not working. Maybe you need to reset your device and see if it fix the issue. well, so far after a month owning it, only happen once. and never happened again until now. i did restart the phone after that btw, weird bug indeed

seems most major dealer like senheng, courts and even telco carriers doesn’t have stock for xr, thus i opted for a local seller which offers 3699 for the 128GB version.
well, that’s before raya holiday’s news...

for those opting for tempered glass SP, please opt for the full coverage. after 2 months owning this phone, the screen survived flat faced against rough concrete floor (chipped at the edge), and now chipped at the bottom while being stacked under few stuffs inside the scooter compartment. can't imagine if i used the normal front coverage only

QUOTE(edmund_yung @ Sep 12 2019, 07:52 PM) Anyone upgrading from iPhone 8 Plus to XR can give some opinion on the downgrade of screen resolution. Is it very obvious? let me share my experience with you, if i may. previously i have a galaxy s9 before sold it and had the chance to compare it side by side with the xr for couple of days. the difference is noticeable, not gonna lie if compared side by side. amoled screen with higher resolution beats lcd any day anytime hands down. but after few while selling it and using just the xr, i didn’t even notice the screen inferior whatsoever. watching youtube, playing pubg, fortnite and watching 1080p resolution movies / series looks great. bottom line or tldr version, xr lcd screen does the job well done. no complaints 👍🏻
