Previously most place i query got stock for this model 128GB Pro all colour available 😅, directd , satu gadget , digi express store kota kemuning , istore publika , one it mid valley.
That is during last two weeks la when i still hunting PM .
I think you just sit at home give them a call one by one to check any store have this model rather than going physically.
*
Better to walk in and ask. I've been going around calling and asking and all telling me no stock. Switch not available. Machines online not open for pre-order, not even taking pre-order last month. Anyway, I walk in to Machines the Gardens yesterday at 10.30am to pre-order and they have an actual physical unit for me. 128gb in sierra blue. Pro max. I walked out of Machines damn happy.

If got stock for walk in, then why would we preorder ? Shouldn't they clear the preorder list first?
*
Online pre-order is different stock from pre-order for each outlet. Unless you pre-order from the outlet, then they should fulfill the outlet's pre-order list first.

May I know which shop/outlet you got yours from? My friend is still waiting for the iPhone 13 Pro but it seems to be OOS at the places she walked in or called.

I feel like the phone gets heated very easily. Anyone else feels the same? Right now, phone is still naked without any casing. So I can actually feel it getting hot. When I tried to add a google account, it gets very hot. If I make payment and the app needs to shift to tng ewallet, it gets very hot too. Is this normal?

Are you using data? is the signal strength good?

I'm still working from home and I haven't taken the phone out of the house since I got it last Saturday. So basically, it's using wifi only all these while.

Is this a new phone or you just started using it? New phones will go through indexing etc and tend to heat up your phone, if that’s the case then it will be normal after a while..
*
Yep it's new. I got it last Saturday. Only finish setting up on Sunday night. And I haven't taken it out of the house as yet. Very light usage since setting it up. Will be going back to office next week so I'll see how it goes.

I didn't encounter that, latest ios already?

I update to latest ios as soon I got my phone, so far didn't encounter any. Except I waze for a while, play games, browsing website for an hour also np
*
Yes, it's on 15.1 already. I haven't even use if for anything yet. Only whatsapp and lazada and shopee. General browsing ok. But when I tried to pay lazada with tng ewallet it heated up. I'll monitor and see how it goes.

Hmm Saturday till now is almost a week, by right should already get better by now…your last solution is to do a fresh reset on the phone and see if it fixes it, also, are you on 15.1?
*
Yep. On 15.1 already.

I did a reset once already when setting up cos it got stuck. I had to wipe the phone and set up again. I'll prefer not having to do it again blink.gif but I supposed to do it again now will be better than later cos there will be more stuff...

Most of the magsafe car chargers uses your aircond port. I don't like them being there... just take all the aircond away from me only on a hot day lol.
*
I don't like it on the aircond vents cos it feels like it will break the aircond vents but placing the phone on the dashboard also a hazard. I had a phone shutdown because it overheated why I'm using waze.

13 Pro Max reporting in to replace my 4-year old iPhone X. Paired with Ringke Fusion Matte case. First impressions: hard to accept that this thing is huge and heavy! But the 120hz screen is so fluid and addictive.

Me from 8+ to 13 pro max.

Size wise not much difference to hand. Weight is heavier though.

And yeah the screen is good. Been using about a week without screen protector. Now that screen protector is here, I'm having 2nd thoughts but safety first I guess.

8+ is similar to 13 pro max? Damn 😅
Btw just got my chance to play with 13pro and pro max at Digi centre. With casing, pro max is definitely a pass for me. To big and heavy. Getting the Pro instead.
*
See? Almost same. I mean size wise. To my hand not much difference.

Better just use a tempered glass, branded with good oleophobic these days only cost 70-80+, pretty worth it imo + peace of mind..

The xone is quite good, though I prefer the Hoda one..quickly install it, that’s the first thing I do after unbox smile.gif

I thought it will take sometime before I get the phone seeing as it was NA everywhere I asked. So I was taking my own sweet time shopping for baju. Manatau the day I walked in to pre-order got a unit on hand for me. Today only case and screen protector sampai cos I waited to see got 11.11 promo or not.

I was using the x-one for the 8+ and I like it. So just went back for it.

How did you get this? I wanted this but Machines told me Malaysia no AC for iPhone. Apple care only for iPad and MacBook in Malaysia.

Those who got their unit through Apple Authorised Reseller, the warranty is just standard 1 year right? No extra warranty?
*
Machines got promo with HSBC and Standard Chartered credit cards. Minimum 24 months installment got extra 2nd year coverage under MPP lite. If I remember correctly, the 2nd year coverage covers everything Apple covered for the 1st year except battery.

Normal MPP from Machines will cover for 1 accidental/water damage but this is not included for MPP Lite.

If paid in full outright sorry no 2nd year coverage.

it starts when you activate the phone after connecting to WiFi...

Its 1 year manufacturer warranty (Apple) and you can opt to buy an additional year from switch and Machines Protection Plan (you can buy it within the same day of purchase provided it is still brand new in box), and I think the protection plan is around 159 or 189..

MPP for pro models is RM949 biggrin.gif

yw smile.gif also if you dont wanna affect your battery health that much, refrain from using your phone to stream or gaming while you're charging it.. the higher heat causes to the phone, the faster it's battery wears off..
*
My 8+ battery health is 77% right now after 4 years of usage. Is 77% considered bad or ok? Battery's never been changed. Still ori battery.

I usually charge overnight and for the last year using the ugreen GAN charger. Also, I have the ugreen wireless charger in the office. And I used to play pokemon go pretty heavily hence I leave it on the wireless charger most of the time when I'm in the office.

I'm thinking if I need to change my charging habits for the new phone.

It looks good! I like that it has special cutouts for the lenses and flash. All those pricey ones seems to just have a square hole with lip sweat.gif
