Hi guys! I'm joining iphone 12 gang! Just placed online order at machines for iPhone 12 128GB BLUE @RM 4099!! Initially want get iPhone 12 mini, but think think only difference of RM 500. So go for iPhone 12 FIRST TIME BUYING SUCH AMOUNT ONLINE! I selected express delivery tho it's free. Hope tomorrow get it .. But make mistakes, I din't create account to buy. I buy as guest.

QUOTE(mycolumn @ Nov 25 2020, 10:22 PM) Srsly you put all day low power mode? Whats the difference with the normal mode? Yup, the differences mostly in terms of how the phone handles background process. Technically all background activity thingy such as iCloud photo sync etc, will only be done when u off the low power or while the phone is charging. I don't play game on my phone, only socmed and heavy camera usage. So low power mode is ok for me to save my battery life & i usually don't need to charge my phone every day. Charge like every 1.5 days with 20/80 rule. Technically only use 60% of battery life every 1.5 days. Been doing this since iPhone 4. Haha. Back then I'm really a power user will tweak everything to get better battery life. I just switched back to iPhone after spending a year plus with Google Pixel. Now that iPhone cameras beat the hell out of Pixel, time for me to stick back to iPhone. Haha. For this iPhone 12, i noticed i don't have to tweak anything, just on low power mode, and I'm good to go.

QUOTE(callexteo98 @ Nov 26 2020, 09:33 AM) 12 mini or 11 better? Currently using 7 plus, but I noticed 12 mini battery is smaller. Unfortunately my budget not able to get the standard 12. Should i get the latest 12 mini or 11? 12 mini because it's a newer chip but smaller battery than 11. 12 mini - OLED screen, newer chip, MagSafe, better camera 11 - bigger size, IPS screen So, it depends on what user you are, heavy or light user..

Should i get the latest 12 mini or 11? Just get 12 mini. I compared my 12 with my sis 11. The 11 is quite bad. I cant stand the IPS screen with the thicker bezel. Once u compared IPS with OLED side by side u’ll know what i mean. Camera also bad if u use wide angle a lot. If u want go for 11 series, need to get the 11 Pro. 11 is a total rip off by Apple. Lucky this year they didn’t do that for the 12 & 12 mini.

But with the difference of just RM 500, why not go for up 12 and for all? It's not like u gonna chg phone any soon? I have proceed with my 12 thru online from machines. Hopefully to receive by today.

Also I noticed why oled save more battery maybe because of the flickering which human eyes can’t see it... when oled display black color its won’t consume battery

WhatsApp, iMessages or maybe even emails?
