I kinda expected. Samsung or is it Android OS just can't get the battery right. The Note 9 was first Sammy with 4K battery. my Realme C with 42K battery beat it. Of course some will say due to screen difference but isn't AMOLED supposed to be power efficient or something like that ... some here keep singing that.

now lets see the M20 with 5K! that's all they do - increase RAM and battery size then say yes can last a whole day

PS. both Note 9 and S9 plus average use only WA, web, no gaming/ music/ navigation esp navi would've killed the battery faster

Pixels have their own issues. Main standout is the camera. Like you say, if locally available with warranty then sure would have tried.

Anyway apologies, this is XS thread, sorry to go out of topic.

good for you.

Though very strange that Apple replaced a non local unit. Usually it's country specific.

Apple nice that way.

That's why they remind us at every event that their customer satisfaction is 98% or somewhere around that lines...

True bro. A feature emphasized by the late Mr Jobs. Now if only we had an official store here ..
because the customer satisfaction from our local resellers hovers about the balance from above.

Forbes says new iPhone 11 Max may get a closer to 4K battery now that will be great but please Mr Cook do not kill the iPhone with that rumoured camera design

that's better right? I'm sure after one week with the Max you won't go back

ha ha ok. anyway, out of curiosity, which do you prefer the LCD or the OLED?

No bro, I think it's that Apple does the screens so well that can't tell any difference between the two

Personally, I would wait for IP 11. With rumors of larger battery might as well wait.

last few years always September. Most probably the same this year. That's the launch only. Malaysian availability is a yearly guessing game in this forum.

It's a good buy, but don't think it's worth the price - especially now. You may want to wait till September, that way even if you can't wait for the next gen iPhone to arrive or if it's too expensive (which it will most probably be), the current gen XS, XS Max and XR will get a price cut. For my money, the XR is a good buy right now but only if you can get significant discounts on it.

Very true. I'm hoping for a price reduction for the 8 plus. That phone is still worth and will be good to use for some years to come.

The Max I found disappointing was the battery life and Apple didn't utilize properly the large amount of screen estate. For a bigger screen should be add a few features instead of just a larger XS. Hope that effort shows up in iOS 13.

And yes the XR is more of a bargain.

hi people. off topic so apologies in advance.

The new iOS 13 apparently makes force touch/ 3D touch ineffective and Apple wants the long press feature on. This is from some of them who have the developer beta. Read in BGR.

What do you all think? How many of you all here feel force touch is a good one and should be developed further?

personally, I have started to like it a lot since last few months and wonder why they want to remove.

Singapore will get 3 since market is there as locals and tourists are aplenty and Thailand will get one more in the near future, meanwhile Kuala Lumpur gets 50% off from Huawei...

true bro! To Note 10 and, beyond!

the usual last minute rumors! and then come September we can't wait for the date of launch. This year around mid- September?

Now the Note fever going on which will end soon when Mate 30 launches followed by iPhone and the usual criticism about "it's just same ol' thing" and end with Pixel 4 - which has a very suspicious similar camera set up to iPhone.

In between sprinkled by Xioami and Realme and maybe HTC.

No news about Nokia. Are they over?

a strong leak -

iphone 11 family

Battery for sure welcome. Hope it lasts though. The current Max is disappointing with its battery life. iOS famous for battery standby management and watch the juice drain!
That’s for moderate daily use without gaming.

But 6G RAM is a surprise (if true)

Apple always justifies their premium prices one way or the other.

Wish we had Apple store here at least can get good service. Sure will beat the crap service by the so called local authorized centres. After sales service is not well here.

who knows an Apple store here may just increase the iPhone owners. Don't forget there's one in Bangkok - north and south of KL so chances are slim.

Well at least we will have the first flying car

of course they would. that's the world class service we get.
