Hahaha, not that bad la bro, it was 3GB. MOP128 for 3GB data

Dropping in to wish everyone good luck on the preorders tonight - especially those getting from maxis.. Hopefully no screw ups from them this year.

Or as they say, may the odds be ever in your favour

Hahaha.. All use the BSH and utilise bank moratoriums to buy new phones? We’ll know when we see how early the queue starts on the 8th!

Haha, I'm sleeping in bro . Check the maxis iPhone thread for the reason why

So maybe buy a 30W USB-C PD adapter if you have a 13 Pro Max.

5W Hahaha...

Definitely buy third party charger bro

Oh I’m sure the demand will still be there, bro. We here at LYN are a very small sample size of the general tech-loving population! Fully anticipating the Sierra Blue Pro and Pro Max to run of stock fairly quickly
Yeah, on the subject of maxis, actually I don’t see the point of them releasing the plan and phone prices so late. I think we’re past the point where we choose telcos because of the price of the phones, hahaha…

You truly deserved the upgrade then!

My takeaway from the video is the Graphite does look nice

Bought cheap one on Shopee already but plan to eventually use Hoda - it's got very good fingerprint resistance based on my experience.

Yup, plus it’s more durable than most I’ve used.

I’ve only ever used one series - the clear one in that yellow packaging

I wonder how many folks actually do plan to shoot 4K ProRes videos on their phone? Definitely not me.

My phone storage is currently at 26.4GB out of 128GB and I have 200GB of iCloud subscription, so yeah, a 128GB phone suits me.. 4K ProRes be damned, hehehe

You are not alone, bro. I ordered 128GB also la... coz I upgrade yearly

Hahaha, we now sharing Apple One family plan bro - 200GB of iCloud storage, she can use as much as she wants coz I hardly take photos or videos But yeah, you have a point, RM400 plus for double the storage and an additional feature, why not

She doesn't know I pre-ordered yet coz she was with me when we were at maxis over the weekend and was told I can't preorder. She's expecting me to go queue on the 8th

Exactly why I hesitate spending so much on Apple's original leather case

Winning comment!

Oh ya man, one of the highlights of my new phone ownership experience is meeting him at McD Sri Damansara, letting him professionally apply screen protector to my phone while I look at the selection of cases in his inventory

Ahh, those were the good old pre-Covid days!!

Same goes for Nomad's leather case. They will tell you its part of the "characteristics" of the leather and you should "appreciate" the beauty of its ageing process.

The “mother can’t recognise” bit had me in stitches!

Hahaha, exactly, same here as well. My OCD is also triggered by all the micro scratches on the back of a clear case hence I hardly ever buy a clear case for my phone these days.

As a very popular YouTube fella would say - glass is glass and glass breaks. It has proved to be slightly more resistant to scratches and tends to hold up better against drops but I’m not risking it

I wonder what’s with these luggage makers making phone cases, hehehe. Anyways, machines used to sell Thule cases which looked pretty industrial but a tad boring. Anyways, let me know if Rimowa comes up with a case with MagSafe and I might join in if the price isn’t crazy

Walau, I thought you afraid of Apple leather case already yet you bought another one? Hahaha...

Apple Care+ isn't available in Malaysia.

Ya, his service was top notch. Even though we could get the stuffs he was selling online for cheaper it was worth just meeting up with him, chit-chatting and watching him install the tempered glass or screen protector on our phones. My wife thought I was crazy coz I was driving up from my place in Klang just to meet him at McD BSD..


SenQ and Senheng have very good in-store service plus nice additional year warranty, but I would generally avoid buying from them online after a couple of previous bad experience. In fact, I don't even buy from their Shopee or Lazada stores, hahaha.. I walked into the SenQ at 1 Utama last year to get my iPhone 12 and everything was good and smooth, but yeah, their stock allocation is super limited especially for the Pro and Pro Max models.

I think they anticipated the Pro Max models in Sierra Blue would be the largest volumes and probably ordered more of those, but it seems this year the Pro models sold out faster (due to the size and weight?) and also I noticed Silver and Gold sold out faster too.

Wow, that's really fast, haha... I've never bought a DBrand before - not a skins kinda guy

I've learned the art of installing tempered glass during the past year and half of MCO with physical shops like Ninjaz not allowed to open, hahaha. Of course, the tempered glass I've been buying and installing all costs less than RM5 and I buy in bulk from Shopee so if I screw up, I just get a new one and start over, hahaha.. If I'm spending RM30 and above then of course I'd have the shop to install for me

Speaking of which I was out buying groceries earlier and I dropped by machines to ask if they have started selling any iPhone 13 accessories. They said not allowed to until the 8th

Been waiting to see this video, for me this battery test is probably the gold standard of YouTube battery test videos

I get the SD888 is just not that power efficient a chipset but the results is still beyond impressive for the 13 Pro Max.
