i know... it's their marketing tactics...  doh.gif
they whatsapp me the location of their shop and everything as well...  rclxs0.gif
but i'm really interested in their magsafe & power adapter bundle  whistling.gif

Lon3Rang3r00 you can either consider getting the 3rd party power adapter or you can buy the apple 20w power adapter  cool2.gif

The magsafe thing is stated out of stock on their website thou.

So is it better to PO than to risk no stock on release?
*
Yes. PO only 300, might as well do it for safety of mind la.

Why wanna take unnecessary risk?

The Lazada PO is paid in full? or also 300.
*
I don't know about Lazada but I am getting it from Machines for my convenience sake.

I was told just need to pay 300 for that. Switch also same IIRC if you opt for self collection.

I don't feel comfortable leaving my fate in the hands of others biggrin.gif

Cheers. Hope it helps.

If machines allow me to dump my old iPhone X, I might get a bigger capacity one laugh.gif

That or a series 6.

guys, i've been using iPhone XS with 64 GB. Often encounter issue of insufficient phone storage. Thinking to upgrade to iPhone 12 Pro, however, I've seen many bros here go for Iphone 12 Pro MAX with 256 GB.

Can you guys share with me the pros to go for MAX? I'm undecided now.

Thanks guys.
*
Better camera, better video capabilities. Better battery life too.

I'd reckon 256 if you are a heavy user.

I am okay with 64gb + 50gb cloud so 128gb is my sweet spot.

256gb might be a tad overkill for me.

are u getting a pro max too?
*
Yeap.

Pro Max this time round.

First time getting such a huge phone actually laugh.gif

QUOTE(foxtrotmike @ Nov 5 2020, 06:37 PM)
It comes down to your budget really. If you have unlimited budget then just go for the Pro Max. If you're on a tight budget I'd recommend to just get the vanilla 12 and save some money. Can't say how better the Pro Max is over the Pro since there's no review of it yet.
*
Correct.

Most people tends to forget that.

Only real advantage of the Pro Max > Pro is some details in the camera which is unknown to us so far. Therefore, at own risk and budget.

Those who have used FLOLAB before in previous versions - how thick is it and what's up with that black border around the protector?

Asking because I'm planning to use the phone naked without case, wouldn't want a screen protector that adds too much thickness or bulk.

Anyone with insights on this? Thanks!!

Edit to add: Google Ads also spamming me with Hoda, anyone used those before?  biggrin.gif
*
I've used Hoda from Day 1 of iPhone X launch.

It's still alive today on my iPhone X.

For 90 bucks, I think that's pretty durable tongue.gif

I paid deposit at SenQ last week and the salesman had per order for me just now with confirmation in Senheng app so chances super high will get on 13th on 12 pro max, same as my last year order on 11 pro max. SenQ not bad has free 2 extra years warranty and rm31x3 voucher in December and February next year.

Free extra 2 years warranty without any caveat? hmm.gif

If you get the Pro but choose the same boring color, I think might as well get the 12 with the blue color coz it looks way better laugh.gif

this is useful

but I am unclear about the store pick up. still checking with them

but my guess its pre-order today and pick up store on 13th Nov.
*
Basically pay 300, go store pick up.

For those who wants installment with those banks.

I plan to pay depo and self collect rather than full payment anyways.

Machines always like to force people to buy their sampah extended coverage. Another reason why I am hesitant to buy from them.

When I bought my iPad Pro previously also same case, the staff keep pushing so many times until I also wanted to slap him in the face.

Switch this time allows installment without getting their plans, I heard.

At the very least, got alternative.

Oh damn....that is bloody expensive for protection plan.....  doh.gif
I never liked them....never bought anything from machine...their staff can be pushy  bruce.gif

To compare, my Macbook 16 apple care cost 1,3k for a laptop which cost >16k when I purchased it earlier.

Iphone 12 pro max 5k+ need pay 1k for extra 2 years warranty is ridiculous.

That's why Switch is better in terms of service.

But switch only have limited choices of banks for me to swipe laugh.gif

Anyways, Maybank now promotion 0% ezpay online. No need to rely on the mercy of those buggers.

Might as well I just self convert and enjoy better cashflow.

last time iPhone Xs Max my friend bought at Switch, I went together, he uses Citibank instalment, did not buy any extra thing, and still Free tempered glass  sweat.gif

Yeap, let's be honest.

Switch is better but they have diff choices of banks available for installments at their outlet compared to Machines.

Only reason why I go with Machines is because there's no Switch in Gardens where I plan to collect the phone and collect points for the Gardens membership.

You guys think Apple's website going to crash tonight? Or we gonna see stock selling out instantly? πŸ˜‚

Nah, Apple website can stand the traffic.

But Maxis / Celcom / Digi website, I am skeptical tongue.gif

Maxis is the worst.

The guy insisted that the pre-order only begin on November 13th.  doh.gif

I was in a hurry so I left without checking with another staff.

Very normal to have such blur cases.

Even machines just now they told me can't pay 300 deposit 1st and self collect until she reconfirms with her supervisor.
