no impact point, its literally a tiny L line in middle of screen

but when running a finger through it you can feel the grooves so its pretty deep

will they change to a refurb for me? or swap with new model? its abt 3 months old, since 28th Oct 2019

Actually if you're not a heavy user and don't take or store lots of videos, you'd be surprised how far 64GB can go. Anyways, Apple promised to make apps and updates smaller in iOS 13. So let's see smile.gif

if 256gb is less than 5k...i might consider haha

If you’re in no hurry, wait for Lazada’s 10.10 or 11.11 sale, price will be even cheaper then!

Depends on your priorities. Battery life? Display? Camera? I’ve used both and I’d pick the XR.
Yes, 100% approvals for iPhones coz she knows she’ll inherit the phone eventually. But she frowns whenever I try an Android laugh.gif
Definitely. In essence, it is a discontinued product, so they’ll price it to clear till stocks run out.

if priorities are camera + batt life ?

Except for portrait shots and 2x zoom, the XR performs better with the single lens due to the new ISP and Smart HDR features. The X has a dual lens camera system so it takes better portrait shots and the telephoto lens helps with the zoom.

Battery life hands down the XR wins.

thnx for the info !

You mean would retailers offer lower than the RRP announced by Apple? Unlikely to happen so soon.
No worries. Wouldn’t you consider an iPhone 11 instead of an XR though?
*
iphone 11 is selling $850 for 256gb variant...less than rm4k, maybe can consider also if managed to get good deal

the thing is my ip7+ still going strong...perhaps wait for another 2 years then change new iphone haha...

Nice, unfortunately I paid way too much for my Xs Max, no more luxury to change this year.
2020 definitely going to upgrade though.

For now my Xs Max is still banging  flex.gif

My iPhone XS Max battery health is 92% and warranty period has exceeded 10 days after 1 year and still manage to get Apple to raise An exception code to replace my battery for free and free labour cost as well.

Once you get an exception code from Apple support specialist, AASP will change your battery with no questions asked and without exception code, AASP will keep your phone for 7-24 days to reproduce the fault and do further testing and diagnosis and to get Apple Approval to replace your battery.

92% and they allow you to replace batt for free...?

normally only <90% they would consider replacing it...

i think the newer iPhone models degrades much faster.. my XS drops to 86% after 11 months. My 11 Pro drops 3% after a month.

My last 7+ last time after 2 years only drop to 90%

my pro max maintains at 100% after 6 months usage...
