the c to lightning cable support fast charge, you can use back your old iPhone 6 cable... if your charger adapter can output 5V 2-3A, by using back iPhone 6 cable able to draw 10-12W as well... not really fast, but is faster than 5V1A 5W

the cable usb c to lightning support Power Delivery (PD), by spec it suppose can let newer generation iPhone draw ~18W, thus, Apple call it fast charge sweat.gif you might notice a lot other Android maker mentioning charger they will stated Watt, e.g. 30W, 50W... fast charge

this year iPhone 12 lineup seems able to fast charge at 20W, probably 9V ~2.2A or 12V xA maybe...

Apple fast charge is miles behind many android maker which uses proprietary charging method because Apple is using USB PD... which use commonly in modern laptop

conclusion is, if you buy new iPhone 12 any model, without buying a USB C Power Delivery support charger, it wont fast charge your iPhone 12 laugh.gif
USB PD charger nowadays reliable brand is cheap, <RM50, some can get RM25-35

thank you for the explanation

my iphone 6 cable is USB A to lightning rclxs0.gif sweat.gif

simply grab a case first laugh.gif rm22.xx include shipping to Malaysia
i like this slim case and the camera cutout similar to my 11pro, it is precisely camera hole instead of one big rectangle cutout
looking at taobao seems many store out of stock for iPhone 12/pro case

saw some sharing on Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/lordarttech/posts/3566236300063289

people complaining on Apple’s decision to not include the charger & earphone, are missing the details.

The new 12 Pro is Rm200 cheaper than the 11 Pro.

20w Charger is Rm99

Earphone is Rm99

So what we have here is actually Apple giving the option to buyer. If you already have a charger & earphone, you dont need to get a new one. It will help to save the precious raw material and carbon footprint. Reduce, Reuse.
But if you don’t have a charger & earphone, then you can get them with the Rm200 saved. Charger too expensive for you? or you dont like the quality of the earphone? No problem, because now Apple is giving you the option to get a third party one! There are hundreds of third party options now.

Remember they sell millions of phones around the world, which mean millions of charger & earphone in the box too. Most of the buyer is already an iphone user, or a smartphone user, or at least will have some sort of usb charger & their favourite pair of earphone. Apple is giving you an option to help save the environment. Not sure why you’re against that. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Edit : highlighting my comments that might answer some of the confusion.

interesting video...
but i think somewhere i watch one utube that apple maybe concentrating on their subscription as everyone knows they got appletv / applemusic / applefitness / applegames
i believe this opinion has some valid truth...
hence someone was talking that the reason why this iphone12 has great upgrade over the 11 and upcoming iphone may not have such substantial upgrades due to the subscription basis...

lol he said dont buy iphone 12 pro if u want to the best camera quality, by adding $100 might as well get pro max

but Malaysia is not the same, pro and pro max price so much different sad.gif

and USA they have 64gb ! but we dont have =_=

lol I don't really care about the Magsafe though... of all new features that is the least useful to me..
Don't really care for MagSafe lol, and I already have 2 USB-C power adapters. Phone case I still can't find any which covers the surrounding square camera part. I find that area very scratch prone with my iPhone 11 sweat.gif
Senheng additional 1 year warranty is free for their members right? biggrin.gif
Ohhh nice thanks, so I won't have to wait long then  tongue.gif
Your Galaxy Z Fold 2 cost way more than the 12 pro max lol. How do you find the Fold 2 so far?

ya senheng got extra warranty for member, to apply the membership just pay around RM10 if not mistaken rclxm9.gif

I think iPhone pre order will open on 23rd high likely. Because as below

For iPad Air sirim approved on 9th October 2020

Pre order - 16th October
Available to ship - 23rd October

So all happen in one week gap time! Hence, if I’m correct sirim approved for iPhone on 13th October 2020

Pre order - 23rd October
Available to ship 30th October

This scenario based on Apple statement stated - India South Korea and dozens of other country will be available from 30th October.

Does this make sense? hmm.gif
