yes..i understand...the price with that material may be appropriate..the question is how many ppl would buy it..i think that is what apple considering..
another thing is..as long there is official Apple store in that country..there will have all range of the product for their customer..like Thailand and SG both have official Apple store..both have cellular version..correct me if i am wrong  notworthy.gif
some ask why SG have it for the consumer but not for MY..because in SG the price may be around SGD1k+ for the cellular version..ppl are more affordable to purchase..

as what i know, e sim in malaysia only support Huawei watch GT(since last year Oct), iPhone xs & xs max(since this year Feb )..
there are cases that back to last year Oct when the e sim only support watch GT from maxis..user try to port it into xs but unsuccessful..

yes, the buying power for working people in bolehland are not very high seriously. so apple devices to most indeed are not cheap. this should be the reason why bolehland is never in first wave due to the demand and supply issue.

dragon-i land last time also not in first wave, but the demand is high there and eventually they are in first wave. becos over there actually got huge market and a lot of people actually like iPhones.

I bought one of the AW4 in Apple Store Sg, I can't activated it, guess I need to travel back to Sg to activate it. My friend who got AW4 in US can activate ECG though in Mys, weird.

you just need to change region to for example, sg or us to activate it.

Actually, if your phone always with you. Cellular version is not that useful. I still thinking whether GPS or GPS+Cellular if Malaysia really come with Celullar for AW5.

For me, my phone 24hrs belong with me one. But watch maybe I can leave it.
*
Not really. Cellular + wifi model of iPads can become very good mifi devices if you have additional SIM card with data or best if u go overseas u can put the foreign data SIM card in to make it a personal hotspot. The battery life is certainly promising than any mifi devices you can buy anywhere.

Wa... Bring a heavy iPad as mifi to travel. I will bring a Powerbank instead.

But for AW cellular. Both watch and phone is using same number.
*
To be fair, iPad mini is not heavy. My all-time favourite device to carry around especially using it while I am public transport.

Actually come to think of it, you pay more for the cellular inclusive of mobile plan, but the battery is far worst for normal use.

Just thinking that Apple should really make the cellular version longer lasting in terms of battery efficiency because the battery drain really deters one from using the cellular function.

Its a good feature, but the battery drain really make me think twice of using it often.
*
Cellular version is good for travel or on the go usage.

One thing is no need to connect to iphone hotspot. Save the battery for ur iphone.

Secondly, using iPad as hotspot is good becos iPad has huge battery, it will be way comfortable than using iPhone as hotspot due to the battery life.

Lastly, if u go overseas and u buy overseas SIM card, u can put inside iPad to use and share connections to ur other devices without swapping out the main SIM card from ur iphone. Of course if you have newer iPhones that come with dual sim will be different story.
