I would recommend the Dell 27"LPS monitor and I have been using it for 2 years without any issues. If you are looking for 4K monitor, then you may seek for Asus or others.

I bought a brand new US set in Malaysia. Got my friend to register the Care+ in US, was about 1.6k all in. Deductible is more or less 500.

But iPhone is unbreakable one. Laptops are really easy to drop and crack

My experience for the past few flagships (X and XS Max) is very easy to be water damaged. My X got water damage after 3 months of usage and XS Max got glitched out after 2 months.

Cool...so US set won’t have issues like iPhone i.e official unlock or locked set etc?  sweat.gif coz the price is really lower than rrp a lot..

How do I know if they offer AppleCare + with superb price? Do I need to msg them or something like that ?

And how much was the superb price + apple care?  biggrin.gif

Question, is it advisable to use a tempered glass/screen protector on the MacBook? I’ve been using TG on all my iPads/iPhones but not sure if its a good idea to slap one on the mbp..

Also, do you use any keyboard protectors? I read keyboard protectors will somewhat damage the screen (in long run). I’m planning to use the very thin silicone that’d fit only the keyboard..not sure if it’s recommended.

get moshi screen protector if you want to protect your screen, I use to have case and keyboard protector , but end up using naked now lol

Up for this seller. I used shopee
same experience. but I paid 700. the warranty date start is like 1-2 weeks before my purchase date.

What was yours? I'm thinking maybe yours is like 1 month activated already? Maybe that's why yours is at 400.

Ya correct, but I don’t mind hahaha because of the price

Bosses all...
what you guys use for USB C hub ah? Can send me some recommendations ah? (The one I bought (wrongly) is those that plug direct into the laptop. Regret liao cos can't fit when I'm using a Mac Casing.. 😭 )

Other question, any issues when connecting MBP to external monitor? I connect to my VERY old Dell U2410 and the fonts looks ugly and blurry. I'm not sure if this is due to the Mac (using the USB hub to HDMI) issue or something else.

I'm starting to think that it's the monitor. Too Old liao. (lifespan exceeded???) I plug in my 2006 year laptop using VGA also don't seem that nice. This monitor when I first bought it is very high end one leh...

TQ
