Too old to stay up for iPhone announcements these days. Sleep is more important, haha. Anyway, as we deducted from the past, can't gauge response from LYN forums alone, but then again, seeing how expensive iPhones are and how cautious everyone is on spending these days, I won't be surprised if response is poor

Yeah, that would be my main gripe with the Pro models - no 128GB option.

Seeing how soon we're getting this in Malaysia, there really isn't much opportunity for them to scalp at all

Singapore still hasn't implemented eSim?

And you're using Starhub?

No idea bro. I'm on maxis

If it ain't pricy, it ain't an IPhone!

Are you upgrading this round bro?

Midnight green for me!

It already is going badly for them, that's why we must do what we can to help, hahaha. My wife is still using my dual SIM XS Max too. Will most likely keep it - unless she wants to upgrade!

I'm renewing my maxis contract this year bro, so yeah, I'm buying

In actual fact, they never did discontinue the X due to the poor sales of the XS. Retailers still selling them a year on even after Apple's website discontinued listing it, hehe. But it was the phone that represented a design leap for Apple, so keeping it makes sense.

GAME_ON - But he’s eyeing the ASUS ROG 2

But it’s not. It’s RM2199 and RM2899 respectively.

Yes, they are clearing stocks now. RM500 off from machines website.

Only if you prefer TouchID over FaceID.

Also, best to buy it with deeper discounts from online platforms.

This year, iOS 13 phased out support for iPhone 6 and iPhone 5S.

So logically, iPhone 6S and SE gets phased out in 2020, iPhone 7 in 2021, and iPhone 8 in 2022.

But if you don’t care for software update, it’ll still work fine as long as the phone is running well. For optimum results best not to update to the latest software and let it run on an older one which is problem free for your phone.

Yes, they do.

Hello! Long time no see

Yeah, bit surprising. My maxis contract is only due end October. I wonder if they’ll let me renew it earlier without penalty.

Cannot bertaubat, must buy. Reignite the iFag in you.

Ya man, that’s worth testing out, isn’t it? I suspect it’s a 3500mAh battery. Anyways, I’m OK with a smaller phone coz battery life isn’t that crucial for me nowadays. I’ve been assigned an office phone so I use my personal phone way less during work days and office hours.

Haha, yeah, same here

Demand is slow everywhere else I guess

Anyways, on the plus side, less scalpers this round!

The plan is for a green 11 pro max - but not sure if I wanna spend that extra RM700 for 256GB - might just go with 64GB. Will see after maxis announces their plans and prices.

Yes, but you need to be aware that you can’t mute the camera shutter sounds of Japan sets. It’s a regulatory requirement.

To be honest, every other iPhone since the iPhone 6 followed by the redesigned X has been just incremental updates, hehe. It’s a pity we no longer get those Qoo10 vouchers

She’s a sis, and not bro

How do you utilise so much storage in less than a year? Lots of 4K videos?

Your quote was replying to @ftan la...

Should you upgrade or not?

For me, that article hit the nail in the head on the storage capacity. 64GB for the base Pro model is terrible. They should have gone with at least 128GB as a base.

Yeah, am surprised they didn’t demo this more during the keynote. It was all focused on the camera.

I think you can use their iPhone XS and XS Max price as a guideline
Yeah, I just watched the entire keynote last night and the iPhone segments were a little meh to be honest. All the focus is on the camera

Qoo10 discontinued the vouchers for quite some time already and to be honest, I’ve not been checking out their app or website for months already!

This year the hype will be green...

My wife calls it fidget spinner lens hahaha

During the days of iPhone 6, the base was 16GB and everyone went for the next level up, 64GB. So I guess you’re right, Apple wants everyone to psychologically pick the 256GB option by worrying that 64GB might not be sufficient.

I tend to leave my phones in their boxes unless I get screen protection for them first!

If you prefer a smaller form factor, the Pro would do. The only advantages of the Max would be a bigger screen which is great if you like gaming or do a lot of media consumption on your phone and a slightly larger battery.

Yeah, I’m leaning towards that as well.
