Call Maxis CS.. no choice then.

Plan to go back to maxis store tomorrow

Last time Digi gave me a brand new set laugh.gif

Just relax. Phone is too new to have refurbished sets right now. You’ll prolly get a brand new one but need to wait a bit, I guess.

Shit happens. But at least it gets resolved for you, I hope.

Bro I think u have good luck, my previous experience told otherwise.

QUOTE(dikae @ Oct 8 2021, 08:19 PM)
Did they say maxis will replace brand new? Or they say depends on maxis policy?
I would insist to get an answer from apple and formalise it before going back to maxis though..
*
They suggest me go ask maxis for a replacement if not den send back to apple for service😭😭
I have told apple it end of the world for me, but CS still insist I go to maxis first

last time i bought ipad air from maxis, tat time famous the screen yellow 1 side thingy, apple sendiri say is the glue, but they no do recall also. Maxis die die say the screen looks normal to them, so at the end cannot change. i go rant out at apple CS, then Apple SG direct deal with me for replacement. And that time they deal directly with me because i am from east msia, and miri does not have service centre, only reseller. And I have checked with miri reseller they don entertain, they also ask me go back maxis lol.

later they send a replacement, slightly better but still abit yellowish 1 side, i gave up also. All i can say is, the telco will be like buta and say no difference to them, as always. Because is not spot on diff. And u bring in 2 diff phone to compare, unless they got new same iphone 13 to compare apple to apple and see.

Kena same story as u last time with iPhone 4. But at garden maxis they told me the screen look same

Not sure if I doing it correctly though, this is what I can get after setting config below:

I turn off True Tone, remain Light mode, set 10% Brightness with help from Siri, then download wallpaper grey image from the Italian youtuber.

user posted image user posted image

Both photo are from Iphone 13 with 2 minutes apart (means right photo taken 2 minutes after the left one), taken by Samsung Note 5 camera, so the image quality may not be good.
If based on observation, it did have pinkish like color on the right, but not too visible. Actual looking is slightly better, just not sure why photo look different with actual one sweat.gif 
I think maybe I can keep it to use nod.gif

u have similar issue with me, i reported to both apple CS online, and visited apple authorized service centre confirm it is an issue.

let us know what is Apple's reply.

u will be surprised. i still playing the merry go round game with 3 parties, Maxis > AASP > Apple > Maxis

This case is currently on-going so i think i will remain silent and wait for the outcome.

But personal note, i not happy with how maxis deal with the case, i appreciate the help from AASP, and i think Apple should align and form up a proper procedure for device defect found within 14 days from purchase.

If this case happen in US/Europe, i believe Genius had swap without a second though and case been close within minutes.

QUOTE(dikae @ Oct 9 2021, 06:02 PM)
Did they replace you with a brand new phone since they confirm it’s an issue?

I wish... but unfortunately merry-go-round games still on-going. innocent.gif

I guess nth to do with Maxis. The responsibility still goes to AASP & Apple since AASP need to gain the approval from Apple for 1 to 1 exchange if necessary.

Maxis is just middle man pass the case to AASP. That's all.
And I guess u can directly with AASP right, at least.

Yea, so I am trying my very best to deal with all party like a coordinator. I am amazed by my own patience luckily, my another unit from ITworld turn out okay. 😩

QUOTE(dikae @ Oct 9 2021, 07:17 PM)
Put more focus on apple rather than maxis or aasp, one email from apple is stronger than 10 from those..now with more people having this issue let’s hope they will be responsible with it..

Yea… thanks for the support

i try... currently I left Ipoh to JB alrdy. my another unit is with my fiancé in ipoh.

i think if you just gotten your iphone, wait no more file an issue with apple first.

The SA remind me that there is a 14 days return policy. currently i waiting apple senior advisers to call me back. appointment had been set.

mega_shok.gif but i from the sound of the SA i dun think there is hope, chance are quite glimpe.

shocking.gif but i am still shock that in years 2021, we still having this sort of QAQC issue from the 1st 1 trillian company in the world.

I am still thinking about it now, becoz if go for replacement request now, there is quite high chances of getting a replacement that carry the same issue, as this is quite a widespread issue IMO, just that don't know whether it will be better or worse than what I have now. If better then good, otherwise going to repeat another round. So I need to think on whether I shud take a gamble on this. sweat.gif

Furthermore, this screen tint only noticeable when I do low brightness screen test in a full dark room, other than that, it is barely noticeable at all. Since it won't affect my normal/daily usage (I seldom use phone in darkness), I think shud be okay to keep, just in case at the end I decided to keep it.

Bro, just enjoy it if the patches isn’t too obvious. Mine kinda obvious no choice had to change

QUOTE(dreamthief @ Oct 9 2021, 11:23 PM)
14 day return referring to AOS right? I'm bad luck, always will opt to buy from AOS.
QAQC issues is probably few percent, but Apple sell so many, it's really very small figure.
*
Er according to Apple it should apple to all reseller

QUOTE(dreamthief @ Oct 9 2021, 11:24 PM)
If don't try, will have the one you have. If try, there is a chance to get a good unit. Ultimately is whether you are happy or not, or got like some thorn sticking up your rear feeling or not.

(I would, given the phone ain't cheap)

I believe he made his own choice, 👍 it’s actually a personal preference issue. I have serious OCD with screen.

QUOTE(UnknownMy @ Oct 9 2021, 11:53 PM)
Don't be so shock, even Samsung has a ton of shitty problem with their product, otherwise, there won't be so many Android user jump ship this round laugh.gif  laugh.gif

Er… I ain’t a sumsung user but I am okay with latent defect but defect on screen is too obvious to ignore the factory should have few round of display calibration and check before and after assembly. This is totally unacceptable.

Update: today apple tried to call me but unfortunately my phone doesn’t ring 🥲. I suspect there is an issue with their phone system, apple drop me an email ask me to reach them again. Called and now my case handle by another senior advisor. I start to feel exhausted for this, should i wonder should I fight for it or just settle with what I have. 🥲🥲

QUOTE(Stitchie @ Oct 21 2021, 11:23 AM)
that time when i tried to order i couldnt do it on their senheng online store, all greyed out.

so i called senheng, and they assigned a sales rep to layan me. the sales rep says 1 of his batch2 client canceled order, so asked me if i want to take it with ETA 15th oct, and i took it.

but on 20oct i still havent gotten any updates, the sales rep just say "no updates from hq, cant do anything", and told me i can only get it like in nov...damn annoyed.

ETA 23-27 Oct (Sat-Wed), now status is shipped, arrived at distribution center near me lol hopefully its the whole package and not just the free gifts that arrive first.

Update - status just changed to out for delivery, so fast, probably just the magsafe charger and adapter..

no la i suppose is the phone, base on my analysis, the stock reached vendors on wednesday morning, thus u see lazada updated it store around 2pm, den all others vendors on lazada also update their store at mid night.

QUOTE(twtang @ Oct 21 2021, 03:55 PM)
received the 13 pro which ordered yesterday from Lazada.
