South Korea, Taiwan, Macau, even Thailand always in second wave
despite these locations have Apple store themselves

Malaysia is not even on par with Thailand

Want to ask if it's better to use wireless charging 20w? Good enough to charge?

will be quite challenging when transferring

you will need to google how to transfer whatsapp history chat from android to iphone

i wonder how Apple select the countries

is it the amount of purchase? hmmm

actually the myth of stuck in ecosystem is kinda false these days

its easy to switch from one side to another, it depends on the type of apps you use. only issue is when you want to retain your paid apps. another bad thing would be the differences in how youve been using the phones

all google services available on iOS also, theres not much diff

various factor as in contribution to sales, and the GDP, GDP per capital etc

Korea wise is because their market dominated by homegrown brand LG, Samsung, very little space available for Apple

Meanwhile for Japan, more and more people shifted from traditional clamshell 4G phone into smartphone, despite they have their Sony brand but looks like young people there prefer iPhone more

probably we will get it after Koreans got theirs, around the same timing as Thais

We will be ahead of Thais this year as of last year.

But the Thais have an Apple Store

Are the Thai unit same as us?

I normally get a HK set (which was compatible for us, not sure about IP12 though due to the 5G?) - physical dual sim feature.

I see I see. We are right on track then!

Bro, don't get physical dual sim feature. It is a relic of the past. Get the esim one.

True also - i normally just need 1 physical sim to change during my business travel. but now also can't travel for business ...

Still using Xs max HK set till now, reason for me considering upgrade:

1. Bigger Screen.
2. 256gb now is reaching its max usage, only have 50gb left.
3. Wide Angle photo is something i like, didnt get the IP11.

But i do wish they returned the Touch ID - as now with Mask - Face ID is really a hassle.

Unless they come up with a software update for Face ID where it scans the eyes as priority to unlock - lol.

i bought the mous case and flolab tempered glass since these two are highly recommended by mobilereviewseh

now i'm considering magsafe for the wireless charging... but it doesn't come with the power adapter..
so it's like RM179+RM99 = RM278

I'm not a fan of wireless charging so I'll probably skip the Magsafe accessories, though that leather card wallet thingy looks kinda cool but expensive...

Looks like Machines, Switch and some other Apple Reseller stores have opened ROI for iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro
