I still haven't had the chance to properly use my phone in the past 10 months and time really flies... Since I didn't get to use the phone outside of my house, I will be skipping this round first. Maybe upgrade only next year. sweat.gif

Seems like the pricing is not too bad.

They retain the same pricing as iPhone 12 Pro/Pro Max.

1) May I ask if buy from Apple official site, will they pre-apply the screen protector onto the phone before their shipped out?
2) Who is their delivery partner/vendor?
3) Are their allowed to have buy online then pick up from their authorize reseller?
4) Any authorized reseller got provide such service (online preorder, pickup in outlet)?

I ask about 3) and 4) becoz I staying in flat, so usually delivery man will only leave parcel in guard post, and parcel always missing/kena stolen.
*
1) No
2) DHL, UPS
3) No
4) Machines, Switch, SenHeng

TBH i was quite disappointed that's no touch ID on the iPhone 13, which currently im still using 8Plus its quite convenient i would say.

But the 120Hz Pro Motion was impressive, the lack of sensitivity on my 8plus is quite annoying sometime  mega_shok.gif

I don't think Apple will go back to TouchID anymore for iPhones..

Apple thinks Face ID is more secure than Touch ID and they also want you to buy their Apple Watch to unlock your phone. tongue.gif
Joke aside, I have AW and it is quite nice to use to unlock my phone when I'm wearing face mask. biggrin.gif

same for me.. i was hoping that iphone 13 will have both...
AW make a big different after watchOS 7.4.. before that using face ID device is suffering..
but including touch ID will be better... AW cannot use for payment... you will still need to go thru "face not recognized--> enter pin"
*
Knowing Apple, they will not have both though... Yeah, agree on the payment part. sad.gif If only AW can be used for payments, hopefully Apple takes this into consideration for future enhancement.

i guess this is not coming.. i feel AW watch unlock is not that secured that they will make it support for payment..

Hopefully they will find way to improve it, I like AW actually. I'm seeing myself to keep using AW in the future.

QUOTE(OKLY @ Sep 21 2021, 01:25 PM)
If going back to under display or power button Touch ID is not in their consideration and we still have to wear face masks for years to come then perhaps they will have to innovate something like a retinal scan? tongue.gif

Apple Watch is the answer. tongue.gif

Dumb question.

1st October can preorder 13 PM as well? Or just the 13 and Mini?

Every model.

I tried the apple watch unlock but need to key in codes in the apple watch. I disable it after a while.
Quite a hassle on that part, can i do without that?
*
Err... Not needed. sweat.gif
My AW is already PIN protected so I don't need to key in any codes.

never buy apple product from online apple store, is that any extra charge if using credit card purchase from online apple store?
And if want installment can I purchase with credit card then apply EzyPay via m2u?
*
No for both questions.

Remark: The extra charge could be cross border charges but not all banks charge this. I know SCB and CIMB do, it is 1% charges. Maybank doesn't charge so no worries.

so if buying from apple they will only do a delivery or do they have physical shops for us to go and take it?

Malaysia doesn’t have physical official Apple Store. So, only delivery.

Anyone know anyway to transfer whatsapp history from android to iOS ?
thinking to jump ship from Samsung to Apple, since Samsung is not that exciting anymore.

QUOTE(chelseafanz @ Sep 29 2021, 09:55 AM)
I think we cannot do so since android store the backup in google drive which iOS cannot read it directly to restore the chat.
Ya, i guess this is the only way. Does anyone know any good paid app that can do so?

QUOTE(UnknownMy @ Sep 29 2021, 09:55 AM)
I once ask this question here before, and the answer I get is...well it is quite troublesome to do it sweat.gif , as you will need a third party software to help on the transfer, and it is not free, but there is trial available for some software, so you might need to google it nod.gif
*
I used Dr. Fone when I switched from Android to iOS last year. Hint: Get from Shopee. biggrin.gif
Managed to transfer both Main and secondary WhatsApp. I use WhatsApp and Business WhatsApp on iOS. It is a bit troublesome for Business WhatsApp though but doable.

Yes, can buy and download first. Familiarize with the steps.

All telcos will keep their plans undisclosed until the last minute. So just check few hours before it is open for pre-order. laugh.gif

I bought my iPhone 12 Pro Max from Digi last year and got it on the launch date. biggrin.gif All phones were transferred to the nearest courier branch but with a huge warning sticker that no delivery can be made until the launch date. laugh.gif

So telcos will usually deliver on the launch date.

Hi , if using third party app like Dr.Fone do i need to access my old phone or can I just access the gdrive where the backup is stored ? Cause my android screen broke and cant function properly

Need old phone to extract out the data. It is a software, you will need your PC as well.

Anyway, I have seen a lot of local Chinese YouTubers from JB got their iPhone 13 PM from a local store - Pro Mobile. They have plenty of stocks which I suspected from Singapore but how did they get them sent into Malaysia, that part I'm not sure. One of the videos shows the box is printed with Apple Malaysia with address in KL Sentral (Apple Malaysia office address).

I checked their IG page, the prices are approximately RM 500 additional but you get to brag much earlier and it is ready stock. biggrin.gif

People are praising Ugreen screen protector in 12 Pro Max thread, maybe you guys can consider that too.

Nowadays do people still get bragging rights getting an IPhone first?

Paying an extra Rm500 to get an Iphone one week earlier? Only Simps would do that. laugh.gif

If you are charging clients at least RM 1k per IG story and RM 60k per YouTube video, what's this money to them? laugh.gif
