Anyone know what's the difference ordering from different site? Did Sengheng/SenQ give +1 year for their Plus ONE member apply on new iPhone? if that's the case isn't Sengheng > the rest?

I have the same thinking as well that senheng + 1 year warranty looks very attractive if one is not going to sign any telco contract.

Hope someone can share their experience and thought.

What? Exploded?  shocking.gif I been using it for 1 year. Seems good.

Yea, it literally popped on the first use which I suspect is due to a capacitor explosion.

I guess I'm just unlucky since there will be defective units in any mass production.

But it makes me doubt their QC process that let it slipped through. doh.gif

I have been using my phone naked from iPhone 5s to Note 5 to Pixel 2 XL and never have a crack screen. I did drop it a few times but it didn't shatter like what in Internet. I only used dbrand skin or moment case sometimes if I'm going out for a travel trip.

It's all comes down to your working place and where do you spend most of the time. Indoor or outdoor?

Remember you bought the phone is meant to use it not to be admired. Do you understand what I mean? If you feel it does give you anxiety for dropping it then just put on a case. Otherwise just naked it to feel the awesomeness of Apple engineering and if you feel bored after a year just slap on Dbrand skin and you'll feel as new.

You are the master of the phone not the slave of the phone.

Yeah.. naked is the best

I'm just worried about the Mini's battery life, hehe. But it'll be fun to have such a compact flagship in this day and age of big phones!

Prices for Apple's iPhone 12 series have plunged shortly after its launch in the Chinese market, where consumers have lost enthusiasm due to a large variety of domestic Android 5G phone options, according to vendors at brick-and-mortar stores.

Chinese customers' excitement for the iPhone 12 seems to dry up, and prices are dropping as well, with many retail stores reportedly undercutting the official prices offered by Apple's official website.

Several such dealers told the Global Times that customers can walk out of their stores with an iPhone 12 that is as much as 300 yuan ($45) cheaper than the official price.

A Shanghai-based vendor surnamed Hu told the Global Times on Thursday that the cheapest version of the iPhone12 64G is sold at 6,050 yuan in her store, compared with 6,299 yuan on the official website.

"The price drop occurred on Sunday, just three days after the release. Many of us now expect prices will fall further with the approach of the Double 11 shopping festival. Therefore, I do not have much in stock," Hu said.

Some drawbacks of the new iPhone 12 as reported by the first batch of consumers include a lack of innovation in the design, the color, and the short battery life in 5G mode, and these could be reasons for the quick price drops, some dealers said.

"I offer the iPhone 12 starting at 6,000 yuan at my store, but sales are not satisfactory," a dealer surnamed Zhang with eight years of experience in the industry told the Global Times on Thursday.

Veteran dealers weren't too surprised by the price drops. They've seen this happen before, as Chinese customers no longer chase after the new iPhones as they did years ago.

Enthusiasm for iPhones has fallen since the launch of the iPhone 6, Zhang said.

"Back then, the first batch of customers would pay an extra 1,000 yuan for a new iPhone 6, compared with having to wait for weeks from Apple's website. But now I only make 100 yuan with the new iPhone 12," said Zhang, noting that Chinese consumers have become more rational about the US brand.

"The iPhone can no longer dominate the market as it did with the iPhone 6 and 6S models, as customers have more choices of domestic phones such as Huawei. I sell more Huawei phones than iPhones," he said.

Liu Dingding, an independent tech analyst, told the Global Times that the Apple device's prices will be kept relatively low in an effort to maintain its market share in China, where competition has become intense.

Huawei, a major rival of iPhone, will launch the Mate 40 series in the domestic market on Friday and a special feature will be announced at the event, according to Richard Yu Chengdong, CEO of Huawei's Consumer Business.

"It is expected that there will be a big price drop in November for the iPhone 12 mini, the cheapest model, which is available at around 4,000 yuan" said Liu.

Ya, I remember using the iPhone X after using the 6 Plus, 6S Plus, 7 Plus and 8 Plus - and the feeling was nice... weird at first, but quite nice to be able to use a phone one-handed comfortably again.

Yeah, either go big with the 12 Pro Max or just settle with the 12.

MKBHD caught me there, I'm those who willing to pay more just for the Pacific Blue. Coming from Oneplus 7Pro.. I can say that the Pro Max is massive, I already rant on the weight over my 7Pro and Pro max is heavier than that based on GSM comparison, i really doubt I'll get that. But then, it's only Rm400 Difference and i'll get Better overall camera sensor and tech, 30% more battery, and bigger screen.... oh gosh.. how.

I'm using 7T Pro at the moment, so our phone size is the same. I will go for Pro Max because I'm already used to it and yes it is big for me but I don't want to go back to smaller screen phone. blush.gif
