There's no deal with maxis, really. I'm essentially buying it at retail price but paying in 24 months interest free instalment, works out to RM191 per month.

I know there could be better deals out there but the only reason I wanted to get it from maxis was so that I would be eligible to sign for their 5GB tablet plan for RM18 month coz I'm currently paying a supplementary line for my iPad at RM48 per month but that's quite wasteful coz you can't do unlimited calls or text messages with the iPad. So after the two years contract, I can still keep the plan. Maxis only allows us to register for this plan if we get an iPad from them.

I’m using a subline number on my ipad too now. Yeah i agree, just need internet actually, so its a waste using subline on this sweat.gif but 5gb internet enough?

Hahaha, yeah, that's some small consolation, I guess. Prefer to pay upfront cash but maxis didn't have that option. Anyways, just sold off my iPad Air 3 yesterday so need to go accessories hunting before can start using the iPad Pro laugh.gif

I bought Baseus magnetic folio case that functions like the apple folio case.. and Adonit Note stylus as opposed to apple pencil, which works perfect for note taking.. and Aukey 60w power delivery fast charger as opposed to apple 60w macbook charger, which also charging this ipad pro super fast

Some tips for your to save hundreds RM for accs laugh.gif

Bro, is this the Baseus cover you're referring to?

https://s.lazada.com.my/s.b68lI

Looks like can only buy online but have to wait for delivery. Retail shops all carrying super branded cases for above RM100, hahaha... Also, can you share the link for the Adonit stylus? Thinking of getting two so my kid can also have one for his iPad 10.2. Can't afford two Apple Pencils laugh.gif
*
Yup that baseus case..

For adonit, i bought from seller name forexengineer. I somehow remember the name bcoz its so obvious biggrin.gif try to look for it in lazada. The seller in sg.besi and can self pick up

Yeah, true. Problem is I have to sell off the new cases I bought for the 2018 iPad, one being a Zagg keyboard case that I really, really like! sad.gif

Oh well, lesson learnt. Next time don't buy accessories so early! Hahaha...
*
My lesson learned, be patience when buying accs for ipad pro.. last time accs added more than a thousand to the cost of the ipad itself. And when selling, ppl just look at the ipad price only, ignoring the accs costs thousands! So this time i try to keep the accs costs minimal.. hence i yet to also pull trigger on MK.. hahaha.. will see if the hype will calm down or not, or do i really need it.. my old logitech bluetooth keyboard is still serving my ipad when doing some office works

Does anyone find one from machine or switch store? tired to call them couple times today but still no one answer...
*
1 thing I observed lately in any retail store, ppl just ditched customer service. Its just they just open for the sake of opening.. Only want salary, but don't really want to work. I went to machines the other day, there were just 3 customer in it, no staff even bother to layan me.. Waited for like 15 minutes and pissed off, walk away. So I imagine same thing happen when you called, they just ignore

They have zero cases available though sad.gif

thanks for sharing this info too. Wondered if it’s worth it since it’s almost like interests free to own a device and the price sometimes is cheaper than buying outright in the shops.
11 Pro Max, a good phone?
*
You also can go to senheng and machines for interest free payment.. although you need a c.c to do that, unlike maxis just go take the ipad and pay monthly via bill.. but your nose hooked for 24m, unless if you’re already then its nothing to lose

If want do instalment, best is go to Switch because they allow it without buying any extra protection plan.

Oh if machines, must buy protection plan is it? I didn’t aware of that, never try. But speaking of it, i bought iphone 11 from maxis for my wife recently, they forced me to buy a screen protector with it, said the phone package come with that, even the box came out with that tempered glass sp sticked outside of the iphone box. Wtf la forcing ppl to buy stuffs.. i was upset but then my wife really like to get the iphone then i simply pay la..

Maxis branch in front of cheras leisure mall.. its a legit maxis branch. And i have receipt as prove. Do you think i can complaint to maxis and claim back? It was bloody rm69 for the sp if I remember correctly

According to maxis store locator, the maxis branches in Cheras are in MyTown, Eko Cheras and Taman Segar. It's possible the one in front of Leisure Mall is a MEP, maxis Exclusive Partner. Usually they are the ones that will insist on PWP items. I'm not sure if you can claim back if you report them though, but I had a friend who did that and maxis replied in an email to apologize and said they will issue a warning to the dealer. That said, not sure if they really did that coz he didn't bother after that.

“Taman Segar” is the maxis store in front of cheras leisure mall.. the area name is Taman Segar actually.. haha

now that i’m back to office working, and using this ipad.. 1 thing i wish apple do is, get the ipad automatically disconnect with bluetooth keyboard when it was picked up from the desk. i think it can be done bcoz this device has gyro sensor.. its a bit annoying then i handheld the ipad and want to type but keyboard don’t appear, just to realize it was still connected to my keyboard 10 metres away. lol

If they force me to buy something out of my will, I will surely walk away.  bruce.gif

in my case with maxis, well maybe i just got too hooked with maxis already, and simply bad treatment by maxis to its customer.. i just had my whole family mobile number on maxis, so anyhow i’m on maxis unles i bring my entire family (me (2 numbers), wife and daughter) covert to other telco.. lol.. so my wife’s phone is due to change and she really wanted iphone 11. and i’ve been trying to check stock with maxis, always limited or no stock. so that day luckily when we went in, it seems they just restock, and my wife can choose any model any color she like all available.. so walking out due to the enforced pwp is just another hassle to me at the moment, so just reluctantly paid lorr.. they sure know how to trap customer doh.gif doh.gif

I gotta say for a valid reason tho, her phone broke when our baby smacked it on the floor biggrin.gif and yeah, iphone 11 or sulky face for the next few weeks biggrin.gif could buy it outright from machines for exp but who don’t need internet data for their phone anyway, might as well get the discounted price from telco

Still thinking wanna get Apple Pencil or not...

Actually what's the main point/attraction of pencil ?

I think my main usage of Ipad Pro:
1) Remote play from PS4
2) Netflix
3) Photo/Video editing <--- will this good to have pencil ?
4) Second screen for my macbook pro
*
for me, note taking.. in fact since i started to use ipad as note keepers, it has become my essential need especially on working days. os i have to have an stylus (i don’t buy apple pencil this time laugh.gif found a cheaper alternative)

well in fact my electronic note taking dated back to since samsung note 5 shocking.gif .. but since ipad pro, i move away from samsung note, now ipad is my main device for productivity as well as entertainment.. basically my best companion

I have Galaxy Note 8 since Sept 2017 (But the screen kaput on 22nd May 2020 last week  cry.gif ) and i rarely use the Pen beside pin point photo editing.

Nowadays less travel (covid-19) so basically no more photo/video  cry.gif
(Plan to JP on March 2020 busted) 

My heart has been struggling to get an Apple Pencil  tongue.gif

tbh i think apple pencil is only worth to get if you are going to put a good use of it, otherwise is will just a useless RM500+ accessories which you can well spend on other thing..

if you are still in doubt, why don’t you check out other stylus alternative. i got myself Adonit Note stylus for ipad. i’m surprised how well it is for hand writing (means it is very accurate for writing) costs a lot cheaper
