Those who cannot wait can buy from Amazon first. Ship to forwarding company and ship it back to Malaysia. Around RM40-60 only for shipping fee.

Hi, have you buy through this method before? Am keen to buy other Apple items from the US through this method.

Yes. Countless times. Just go buyandship.com.my and register and get your address. Then from amazon ship to that buyandship address. It will get forwarded to Hong Kong. After reach Hong Kong you will pay for the shipping charges to Malaysia. I bought series 5 from Amazon, shipping charges only RM60

I was just placed order to buy an Apple Watch series 6 at this morning. Before that I never use apple watch since I am wearing mechanical watch and totally not interested in smart watch.
The reason why I need apple watch is quite simple, you should read the latest news yesterday. Recently, apple just released an iOS 14.5 beta and make the face ID able to unlock without take off our mask. However, the requirement is we need an apple watch. I never has intention to buy that kind of non-essential Apple products. It's kind of wasting money actually. However, the face ID is really brought so much of trouble when wearing mask. Especially during the moment when the phone missed out one of the digit what I typed.
For example, when I type 123456 to unlock my phone. My phone always missed out one of the digit then became 12456 between them. When I try to retype again, then became 124561, then 23456. The phone can't catch me up when I type my passcode too fast.

LOL. Just because of that reason you spent RM2k for a watch? You must be really rich then. If it bothers me so much I would just disable passcode.

Hi, under the buyandship prohibited items catalogue - special items category, it was mentioned that "Battery: Including electronic components, stand-alone delivery of batteries, separate batches of dry batteries and lithium batteries. They will not pass the security check". Since the series 5 has inbuilt batteries, wouldn't it fall under the prohibited category? In most cases, any items containing lithium/ batteries would get hold/ confiscated.. :/

Is the parcel shipped via sea then?

How long was your waiting period?

Thanks!

There's a chat function on buyandship website. you can ask them if you have doubts. my shipment no issue, took 3 days to reach me from hong kong. but please under-declare the value to prevent tax. i declare my apple watch for USD50 only

Guys, if ECG enters, does it mean that irregular heart rhythm will enter as well? Or it’s a separate thing?

It's the same package

Do you all still wear normal watches after getting your smart watch?

Yes. Smart watch doesn’t look so smart when I’m wearing formal attending board meeting. Still prefer my Omega.

Besides formal day I’m wearing smart watch all the time.
