12 Pro also hard sell actually - I can see the 12 and 12 mini selling like hot cakes...

Yes agree. The staring price of pro is turning a lot away.

OMG why is iPhone 12 so expensive TT it supposed to be starting from 3399 like iPhone 11 isn't it TT

OLED display and not the pathetic 720p resolution display. Plus 5G... all these will cause the price to be higher. haha.

Ok well, that's a big point here that EarPods and adapter is not included!!! Means that we have to purchase another 200+ for an adapter which we can't use the old one cause it's type C-lightning. Good job apple im gonna throw up
*
to be fair, i dun use use the earpods at all. not a big deal to me. no charger then just buy lo. anyway, nowadays to find charger.

i think the 12 pricing bit higher due to use of OLED vs LCD
Pro / Pro Max slightly cheaper by RM200 could be remove charge/earpod
the 128GB remain same price since is double capacity

my 2 cents biggrin.gif
*
actually 128gb becomes more worth it. same starting price but double storage.

the pro / pro max price drop below 7k sweat.gif but non pro goes up, probably Apple notice non pro sales better and higher want to gain more from that category? laugh.gif

this year iphone 12/12 mini has OLED already. so display is no longer a selling point for pro. so they need to make the gap closer for people to go for pro. haha.

Hey all, quick 3 questions for iPhone 12 mini which I’m interested in getting:

1) I can accept not having earpods but there’s  no adapter at all! How do I charge my phone with that cable (USB-C) given? Can I use back the norma cable & adapter of my iphone 7? If not, which apple adapter should we buy that will specifically suit the iPhone 12 mini and its included cable?

no. u need to buy a usb-c charger with usb-c connector to use the cable given.

2) Is the trade-in program only available for US? When I tried using the US site there’s an option to trade in iPhone 7 for $100, but such option not shown in Apple MY.

bolehland has none.


3) Is 128gb or 256gb better for this model? I had an extremely bad storage experience with my 32gb iPhone 7. I’m assuming a cam & iOS with higher specs/greater ver will eat up much more spaces. Is 256gb worth it?
Thanks in advance!
*
certainly 256gb, forget about 128gb even. the camera for iphones are much better now. more storage will be required. dun cheap out on storage.

always remember = "poor man always buy twice".

Looking at the spe, pro & non pro only a camera different.

& the blue for iPhone 12, nice!! At least this time the color range is more professional
*
indeed this round, iphone 12 and 12 pro have smaller gap. so the price is also closer now.

the iphone mini is cute.... just feel so funny when Apple said their display is the best ever when we all know that they have pull back the high refresh rate screen for next iphone... just feel that is the setback.

the iphone 12 mini is even having a higher ppi than the iphone 12 pro max.

much like ipad mini is having higher ppi than ipad air.

so iphone 11 and 12 same battery capacity.

iphone 12 mini has a smaller battery which is expected similar to SE 2.

Thanks. I think you're right, I should not save the RM500 and struggle the same storage fate later on.

Can you advise which product here is suitable in charging up iPhone 12 Mini?
https://www.apple.com/my/shop/iphone/iphone...e%2B45b0%2B45d4

I heard it'll spoil the battery's lifespan if I use the wrong kind of charger. I used to charge my iPhone 7 a lot with my car and I can testify.

After much pondering, decide to go for 12 over 12 Pro. I don't use telephoto on my X, like at all so the camera upgrade not that huge for me. Design wise both 12 and 12 Pro are good. I suppose I go for 12 one...then save up for the next big change.

Magsafe case and the wallet are very interesting though. More money to be spent lol.

Iphone 12 pro/ pro max has 6GB RAM while iphone 12/12 Mini has only 4GB RAM.

seriously the price gap between 12 vs 12 pro/12 pro max are not significantly big. need to note that 12 starts at 64gb while 12 pro/12 pro max starts at 128gb also.

iPhone 12 128gb - rm4099
iPhone 12 Pro 128GB - rm4899
iPhone 12 Pro 128GB - rm5299

this is much like iPad Air 4 vs iPad Pro 11-inch now. add a bit more can go for pro model.
