The Mini would be a nice fone to get for flying my DJI Mavic drone.
Using the 11 Pro Max now...it barely fits within the claws of the DJI controller. |

I wish Touch ID makes a comeback. With how masks are almost compulsory these days, Face ID becomes a hinder when you have to type your passcode every time you need to unlock

 5.4-inch with a slightly smaller body than iPhone 8/SE 2. Hence the word ‘mini’. |

OLED screens yes for all iPhones this year.
Touch ID unfortunately no, it won’t happen. The design and specs for this year’s iPhones would have been finalized a year ago, way before the pandemic strikes. So Face ID and the notch is here to stay for now. |

Like I said the iphone 12 this year is more worth it to get than iphone 11 last year now. Becos it is a still considered as a revolutionary iPhone since it has redesign and 5G and OLED. This makes a big big deal. |

Ipad 8th just available but other countries already weeks ahead of us this is exactly super normal to be frank. lion city has not getting any new iphones for first two waves at least. if this year iphones will be a strong sale like iphone 6/6 plus time, the delay will even be longer. I would expect it to be sold in bolehland starting as early as Dec 2020 at most. so far bolehland only has the iPhone SE 2 for sell as the same period as other countries if not wrong. |

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? 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. 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! |

Good job apple im gonna throw up To me, it's not that big a deal coz I've not used the original accessories that comes with every iPhone I've owned since the iPhone 5 as I've always used my iPad charger. When I sell off my iPhones, the accessories are almost always unused (except maybe the cable which I might use during emergency).

Thanks in advance! 2) Our local retailers do have their own trade in program but bear in mind they are just authorized resellers, so their offer won't be as good as what is offered by Apple themselves. 3) Depending on how long you intend to keep the phone. if it's 3 years or more, I'd say go for the 256GB. Alternatively, you could subscribe to a larger iCloud storage option and get the 128GB one, which is what I plan to do. This post has been edited by attw: Oct 14 2020, 07:38 AM |

For the charger u can always go for branded third party one, could be cheaper. As for 5g, now it's too early, almost everyone here will upgrade yearly or every 2 years. So I pretty much guarantee by the time 5g official arrive here, u all will already change phone.

QUOTE(westlife @ Oct 14 2020, 03:35 AM) certainly 256gb, forget about 128gb even. the camera for iphones are much better now. more storage will be required. dun cheap out on storage. Thanks. I think you're right, I should not save the RM500 and struggle the same storage fate later on.always remember = "poor man always buy twice". 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.

1) can charge but the cable comes with iphone 12 support fast charge PD, provided you have PD charger adapter which no longer include (last year iphone 11 include charger adapter is not support fast charge, just normal 5V1A brick )Thanks for the valuable insight! How can we get this "PD charger adapter"? And if I don't care about fast charge PD, what are the alternative? I can be satisfied if it can charge just 10-20% faster than my current iPhone 7. |

QUOTE(attw @ Oct 14 2020, 07:37 AM) To me, it's not that big a deal coz I've not used the original accessories that comes with every iPhone I've owned since the iPhone 5 as I've always used my iPad charger. When I sell off my iPhones, the accessories are almost always unused (except maybe the cable which I might use during emergency). Same, don't even use them once at all using my sony wf1000xm3 earphone + aukey pd charger and type c to lightning since iphone 12, 12 pro and 12 pro max screen goes bigger, the tempered glass since iPhone X not working already |

really tempted by the iPhone 12 mini
all comes down to hands on experience if its screen estate is really smol, then the regular 12 is the better option. both devices are segmented into an obvious way. you want a smol powerful phone for social and connectivity? get the mini however if you do everything inside a phone like how you operator a normal laptop, regular 12 would be the better option and i dont see the need of Pro. nobody should go for Pro. unless they want to take advantage of that camera, in way they execute it better than Xperia 1ii. that's marketing for you |

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. |

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. This post has been edited by westlife: Oct 15 2020, 02:03 AM |

Actually the 12 seems to be like a good balance between size and price now, for those who don't need the telephoto lens. It's a big upgrade over the 11 in terms of the display quality and it's also more compact than the 11. Definitely a good choice!Magsafe case and the wallet are very interesting though.

QUOTE(westlife @ Oct 15 2020, 12:18 PM) unlikely, if u know apple's style well. they dun refresh the design nowadays until 3 years later. Me too..6/6P -> X -> 12 likely this 12 design will be here for few more years before it gets redesigned again. i have been changing iphones always when there is a redesign. 6P -> X -> 12 Pro Max. haha. 5 --> 6S --> X -->12 Pro Max |

QUOTE(theWeird_Weird @ Oct 15 2020, 10:10 AM) Icic. Thought ios is less memory heavy like Android. iOS is less memory intensive for sure. but more memory will make it even last longer.good example will be iPhone 6/6P vs iPhone 6s/6sP. although it is just one year difference. iPhone 6/6P has one iOS lesser than iPhone 6s/6sP since the launch date. iPhone 6/6P stops at iOS 12 while iPhone 6s/6P now still support iOS 14. the deal breaker is the RAM in them. Former has only 1GB RAM while later has 2GB. |

Cant wait to get ip12 mini. Upgrading from ip6s. I’ve waited long for apple to release smaller/compact phone. We have yet to know the release or pre-order date right? I want to ask about the charger since it is not being included. I have a 29w usb-c power adaptor for 2016 12” macbook. Can this be use to charge ip12?

What is the market price for USB C wall charger? Quick search at lazada seems to indicate 70+/- range? Like that apple one at RM99 seems to be quite a good deal.

QUOTE(Zanei Gundan @ Oct 14 2020, 08:21 PM) really tempted by the iPhone 12 mini I’ve got an 11. Considering the 12 mini due to hands on experience like you. all comes down to hands on experience if its screen estate is really smol, then the regular 12 is the better option. both devices are segmented into an obvious way. you want a smol powerful phone for social and connectivity? get the mini however if you do everything inside a phone like how you operator a normal laptop, regular 12 would be the better option and i dont see the need of Pro. nobody should go for Pro. unless they want to take advantage of that camera, in way they execute it better than Xperia 1ii. that's marketing for you I’m looking for a better one hand experience, supplemented by an iPad 10.2 for reading and media usage at home. Considering the 12 mini screen isn’t that much smaller than a 7 plus I think it’s not “small”. But will need to check it out in person. My only concern is battery, as 5G is irrelevant. 4G can hit 90 down 50 up for me, but problem is coverage is bad and spotty. I rather have consistent 4G than spotty 5G. Malaysia telcos quite crap. |

Malaysia telcos quite crap. 5g is purely Apple marketing strategy. i mean, why not aren't you leveraging on that? how else they're gonna convince the masses, 5g is the future of tech. not folding phones, not 120hz screen. not near edge-to-edge display. those things sure, tech advancement. but compared to 5g. they doesn't bring enough hook to it. normies don't absorb their fundamentals quickly. at Apple, timing of execution is everything i have with me the iPhone 7, should be same in width. but tad shorter on its height form, althou gained increase in real screen estate. more room to display and see content. battery on the 12 mini will always be the elephant in the room. it may not be as great as iphone 11 or 11 pro. but at least if its able to perform better than iPhone SE 2 battery life from longevity perspective. probably will be 'fine' already, putting it fine because iPhone is a champ when it comes to standby battery time btw did anyone also get caught how low-key Apple execute their modularity concept like really smooth compared to other phone maker company? look at any angle if you want. but magsafe with accessories screams modular enough to me. |

I think ip12pro is better buy because of 6gb of ram compare to 4gb on ip12. More ram equal to much longer support for ios. Plus its only 800 bucks more from the ip12 (128gb ver). Classic case with 6 vs 6s, later model until now still support ios14 because of an extra ram it got. If you buy with your telco, ip12pro is a no brainer choice.

For example support iphone 8 plus but retire iphone 8? I think they will retire the whole generation |

Just like power bank and type C cables, best get the one certified and not the cheapo ones you find in shopee or Mr.DIYI've heard from someone before that we should only charge an apple phone with an apple charger.

No, just make sure you get from reputable manufacturers for peace of mind. Quite a number of third party manufacturers costing anywhere from RM20 - RM150. The Apple 20W one at RM99 isn't a bad choice either if you really need one.I've heard from someone before that we should only charge an apple phone with an apple charger. How true is that?

USB-C plug is standard spec so don't really need MFI ever, just as long as manufacturer is reputable. |

Ya, I've got an Aukey one which I bought at half price during a flash sale but I've also got a cheapo Ugreen one that's about RM30 and both working well so far. No issues I also have an older iPad 12W adapter so I for one am not triggered about the lack of charging brick from the packaging this round, especially since Apple offset the removal of those without substantially increasing the prices of the phones even with 5G. |

Dolby Atmos on a phone is a joke and a stupid marketing gimmick. There is no way in hell you can get Atmos effect from a bloody phone speaker. Dolby Vision is more plausible, though I'd be hard press to find anyone noticing the difference on a small screen. Video recording DV however is anther story. Might make a bit of difference during playback on a DV enabled TV, but again recording done on a small sensor camera phone, don't expect a big difference either... AhJian liked this post

Oh, I forgot to mention how long you keep your phone is also a factor in determining how much storage you should get. If it's 3 years or more, advisable to go for the larger storage options. Besides, the difference from 64GB to 128GB for the 12 series is only RM200 difference.that way, my phone was running out space.

if you're using icloud for storing your photo, 64gb is enough
because 20GB photo in icloud and your phone is just only keep the lower resolution type until u go to view it. Ur phone will auto load from icloud full resolution on the fly. |

Based on this leak, the battery of the iPhone 12 is slightly bigger to the iPhone X: -https://www.lowyat.net/2020/224066/iphone-1...max-3687mah-nl/ Can probably get me through a day on moderate usage. The mini though is a bit small-ish, bigger than the SE of course but I wonder if it'll last a day |

I not so sure on that, for me price is really a concern. To spend >rm3000 is quite insane.I think the SE 2020 or iPhone 11 or below will still be the best seller in this region. |

Don’t get a phone from a telco based solely on price, make sure it has good coverage where you live, work and play. Maybe get a prepaid SIM card and try it out first before you commit to signing a two year contract.The last I used umobiles was few years ago I’ve signed two year contracts with DiGi and U Mobile before, both times I regretted due to the poor coverage at my housing area |

I'm using Celcom EasyPhone plan (XS) and my contract will be over soon so I can switch soon.
Might go for 12 instead of the Pro because despite the many features included, the price difference is another issue. |

Had X, then skipped XS because it was literally same phone, then early this year upgraded to 11, after few months with 11 i decided that 11 pro should be better, since size matters for me. Got 11 pro and you know, not getting 12 for sure.
Im actually apple fanboy and havent any android for years but i have to say im staying with my 11 pro for one more year. Besides camera there is nothing new. 5G in my country will be probably next year... Okey, design, but since im a case lover its also not so important. Little bit disappointed. |

Because year ago i was actually thinking that iphone 12 will come and i will get it since X will be 3 years old, great time to get new one. But since i run trough tree phones in one year and using 11pro atm there is not much you gain. the design itself is already qualified for the switch. Even Verge said if you need phone you go for it, if you have already latest model its kinda pointless. |

If you have a legacy plan like Surfmore and don't make many phone calls, best keep the plan and not change to the One plans which are more expensive QUOTE(weFF @ Oct 21 2020, 01:33 AM) Had X, then skipped XS because it was literally same phone, then early this year upgraded to 11, after few months with 11 i decided that 11 pro should be better, since size matters for me. Got 11 pro and you know, not getting 12 for sure. Yup, there's very little reason to upgrade from the 11 Pro to the 12 or 12;Pro save for the new design and incremental improvements in the camera.Im actually apple fanboy and havent any android for years but i have to say im staying with my 11 pro for one more year. Besides camera there is nothing new. 5G in my country will be probably next year... Okey, design, but since im a case lover its also not so important. Little bit disappointed. |

QUOTE(PoisonSoul @ Oct 21 2020, 01:18 AM) If it's approved, it's like this. Yerp, it's gone from their database. It's approved but they made a mistake on their expiry date Jan 2021. Hahah you can't be having a device that was approved on october 2020 and expiry on 2021. credit owner of this pic in this thread But as for now, it's gone. So I am still strongly predicting pre order by this week friday but again, taking CMCO into consideration all WFH...so yeah...that might delay if Apple malaysia lazy haha This post has been edited by Pat89: Oct 21 2020, 08:01 AM |

Yes, with taxes and exchange rate fluctuation, it really not a big differences. If want compare with 699 or 799, use our telco subsidized price to compare too. |

Still no news on SIRIM approval.
Anyway, just watched MKBHD's video on his iPhone 12 and the MagSafe accessories review. Those planning to get the wallet, be careful because it slips off easily. This post has been edited by Carlo J: Oct 21 2020, 02:03 PM |

I'm currently using iPhone 7 32GB on IOS 14. This coming November the phone will be 4 years.
Not sure if I should change to iPhone 12 or not. Of course there's lots of advantage, like bigger screen, better battery life, latest techs but I can still answer calls and reply to Whatsapp without lag even after all these years. Not sure putting RM4099 for phone + RM100 for charger and another RM100~200 for tempered glass and case would justify during this pandemic situation. Heart says want, but brain says not rational. Sigh. This post has been edited by cloudstrife07: Oct 21 2020, 11:19 PM |

QUOTE(mickeysew814 @ Oct 22 2020, 12:58 PM) yup. the few hundred saving can use to buy casing, or top up a bit for airpod. Ya, previously for the 11, just the LCD and lower resolution screen already is enough to convince people to spend more for the 11 Pro |

QUOTE(cloudstrife07 @ Oct 22 2020, 01:12 PM) well not that buttery smooth la, but it's reliable -- there's no lag in answering calls or message in Whatsapp. Android phones of the same generation conlanfirm lag like hell already. iphone 7 should still be ok for another 2 to 3 more years for your mom basis usage. if you can get a iphone X at cheaper price will be even better. the redesign will make the phone looks not so outdated for the next few years. and it can be used longer. i managed to get one refurbished iphone x 256gb at rm1850 for my dad which is quite ok deal. zhlo liked this post

Hi everyone, do you think I can trust this type of pre-order online: https://shopee.com.my/APPLE-IPhone-12-Mini-...0405.6757486769
Seems very convincing cause there's 100% authentic guarantee from Shopee. It has other free gifts unlike buying directly from the official Apple site. Plus you don't have to "fight" for it on the official release date in Malaysia (which we don't know when as of now). What do you guys think? |

5G built wrong? iPhone 12 battery tests raise questions for mini, Max

I remember the X and XS Max having very average battery life but the 11 Pro Max was absolutely stellar. Since 5G is no where near ready here, battery life may be slightly better than these reviews make it out to be but because numbers don't lie, I truly expect mediocre, iPhone X and.XS Max level of battery performance.Seeing that the new iPhone 12 has lower battery capacity than its predecessor and with 5G built in, this report is giving me some concerns.

QUOTE(mickeysew814 @ Oct 24 2020, 12:03 PM) the blue look better from your photo. Seriously every year I always have doubts against the taste of the iPhone designers who pick the colours for iPhones.Every year the tones of colour they chose the colour are not really that nice. Most importantly, even same series of iPhones like this year or last year iphone 12 and iphone 11. Although they have a lot of colours, but the tones of colours are always not consistent. Like this year red is brighter red, blue is dark blue, green is pale. All do not have a consistent standard choice of the colour scheme. Same goes to the iPhone 12 pro too. |

how many of you actually pay for the Apple Care for extra warranty when you purchasing an Apple product? I never bought the Apple Care for my MBP nor iPad.

I don't see any mishandling from customers as there is no evidence of scrapes and dents. This isn't the case with the 11 Pro where paint in demo units looks fine. Now a transparent case is needed to showcase the beauty of the phone. Initially thought can use it naked on 12 Mini. This post has been edited by ahlin: Oct 26 2020, 02:53 PM |

QUOTE(theWeird_Weird @ Oct 26 2020, 03:35 PM) but the glossy side not 12pro meh QUOTE(attw @ Oct 26 2020, 02:50 PM) 12. The 12 Pro has stainless steel frames that ought to be more durable. |
