I'm looking forward to iPhone 12 Pro Max and it is going to be my first iPhone if all sails smoothly but I'm not new to iOS as I have been using few iPads for a decade. blush.gif

However, many photos are shared around where 12 Pro are easily scratched. Not that I will use my phone naked but I'm just feeling uncomfortable to pay that much but is easily scratched? hmm.gif

Telcos will launch soon, Digi is planning for the event now. smile.gif

How do you know that DiGi is planning for the event now?

I have close relationship with them? I even know what they may to do with the event. biggrin.gif
But I cannot disclose much at this point of time. smile.gif

Don't worry sis. Every iPhone released there's always tons of pics saying how easily scratch it is.

But this is really bad leh..

Is it like the previous post mention, pre-order on 6 November and launch on 13 November for all models?

Just wait for them to announce OK? biggrin.gif

Actually why this week? Any special thing?
I don't think it is this week...

Eh, I also don't know leh. tongue.gif

QUOTE(de_ghost @ Oct 28 2020, 03:49 PM)
Tempered glass all the way... but your worries is same as mine. Been using my ip6 without a tempered glass for 2 years and i barely see scratches as visible as what been shown over the internet of ip12.
*
I have stopped using tempered glass for my phone due to curved screen. I am using Goozilla Tech for now, maybe for this iPhone will change to Rock Space.
Let's see if I will buy this phone. tongue.gif Wait till it's launched here.

I'm still contemplating to get telco set or HK set as I would love to have real dual Nano SIM because I need two SIMs to work all the time rather than one physical SIM + eSIM.

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.
*
Indoor most of the time but with travels in between for work and leisure once Covid-19 is over.

Good point on that but being a careful user, it hurts me to see it if it is scratched. laugh.gif Anyway, I will use a case or wrap it with transparent skin. biggrin.gif

Guys, is Ringke Fusion casing good?

I have been using Ringke Fusion cases for my all previous phones and current phone. It is good but slightly bulky.
No experience for it on any iPhone though.

fruitie Seriously, jump ship to Apple meh? I thought you're always Android one. Why Pro Max? Not too huge for you?

My current phone is like 0.2" smaller? laugh.gif Used to it.

Sorry being sound rude but first you said you have close relationship then you saying you also don’t know hahaha

You are just driving this people going crazy again 😂
*
I don't think I owe anyone an explanation. From the beginning, I didn't even share any details by just saying Digi is arranging for the launching event. It was one of you guys asked how did I know? smile.gif And have you heard about NDA? You cannot simply share information publicly, you want to be sued for defamation? Come on, be sensible in responding.

Yes, you sounded rude. Done.

So, how many of you are getting the Pro Max? biggrin.gif I wanna switch from Android due to iPhone's superb camera. Hopefully I will not regret.

Can I ask what android phone you’re using? I read many comment about huawei p40 camera is good...I tried so hard to switch to android from iOS but I’m kinda paranoid about the UI and function 😅

I'm using OnePlus 7T Pro McLaren Edition now. biggrin.gif

QUOTE(attw @ Oct 28 2020, 07:36 PM)
I'm definitely eyeing one though I am a little concerned about the battery life coz the battery is a bit smaller compared to the 11 Pro Max.

So you're gonna sell your McLaren 7T Pro? smile.gif
*
Yeah, selling to my sister if I am really getting the iPhone this round.

QUOTE(KahVII @ Oct 28 2020, 07:37 PM)
12 pro also bigger than what I ideally wanted, pro max lagi impossible. The size for iPhone X is the best for me but oh well
*
Haha. My current phone is already 6.77" I think, so doesn't make big difference.

One post only can quote 5 users.

QUOTE(MilesAndMore @ Oct 28 2020, 08:02 PM)
I believe the scratch problem is with iPhone 12, not iPhone 12 Pro since iPhone 12 has aluminium bezel just like the iPhone 5S, and iPhone 5S really got a lot of complaints about build quality.

Anyway, I’ve been using my iPhone naked since iPhone 5S. The only thing I put on is a screen protector but even the screen protector is a cheap one from Daiso.

My iPhone XS has stainless steel bezel, just like the iPhone 12 Pro. 2 years later it still looks very new and this is without casing. So it should be ok.
*
You must be really careful. Some reports say it's the 12 Pro, so I'm really not sure.

QUOTE(de_ghost @ Oct 28 2020, 08:07 PM)
Initially eyeing for 12 Pro cause i thought MY can get it around 30th Oct since i in need of phone(my ip6 screen cracked). But then after rumours from switch saying it'll be both Pro and Pro max launch together might as well get the pro max. so now i'm 90% getting the pro Max lol
*
Yeah, go for Max. rclxms.gif

QUOTE(cyapd @ Oct 28 2020, 08:09 PM)
Still undecided between the pro and pro max. 6.1 is what I’m using now and it seems perfect but planning to handheld the pro max and see how.
*
Yes, hold it to know if the size suits you. My bestie wants the Pro version and has been using iPhone since she started using smartphone but after hearing me getting Max, she's considering now. tongue.gif She's in China so waiting for 13th to try Max. tongue.gif

QUOTE(工藤新一 @ Oct 28 2020, 08:31 PM)
Pro max kee chiu 🙋🏻‍♂️
*
Good choice.

QUOTE(Area51SE @ Oct 28 2020, 08:52 PM)
Looking at all the comments for the past weeks. It seems that majority are going for the Pro Max biggrin.gif. I think this year the Pro wouldn't sell well as there is not much difference between the normal 12 and 12 pro.
*
But 0.7" difference right? It's quite significant if someone prefers smaller phone.

Yeah, quite powerful and very fluid screen. Hopefully if I were to hop to iOS, I can get used to it.

I will see how it goes, maybe will get 256GB instead.
But I don't store much stuff in my phone, most of the things are from WhatsApp but knowing the WhatsApp transfer from Android to iOS may not be that easy, I may not backup and gonna save lots of space. laugh.gif

QUOTE(attw @ Oct 29 2020, 06:49 PM)
Agreed, on all counts smile.gif

Am also just gonna get the 128GB this round, happy that they have that as a base model now and no longer 64GB.

64GB just isn't enough anymore. tongue.gif

Ok, looks like it'll be a very long wait this year. If it sells like hotcakes then the same problem, no stock & wait again biggrin.gif Oh well

Yeah, same date as global Pro Max's release date. tongue.gif
Yes, out of stock will be another issue..
