Thanks. Looks like no major upgrade on the camera system. I'll be skipping this generation then.

The cameras are a major upgrade with cinematic and macro mode on the Pro models. If you’re into photography it’s worth the upgrade. Also not forgetting the 120 Hz display.

Apple scam us. No wonder good battery life, fake 120hz

Try not to fall for these cheap allegations. With Apple, it’s all about the experience. As long as it’s smooth on scrolling and gaming. That’s what matters. Leave the technicalities aside. It’s what we can perceive.

All that noise about 120Hz refresh and nobody bothers to consider the difference between Apple's adaptive refresh rate and Samsung's locked refresh rate.

Samsung 120 Hz uses adaptive tech as well.

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

Don’t want to feed the scalpers this time around. Just wait for another week more.

And some local tech YouTubers already got their early access on the local models. I’ve seen it on YouTube. So the stock is already here. Unsure why the release date is next week.

I went to Machines earlier to enquire if walk in customers stand a chance to purchase. They told me no promises for Pro models as stock is very limited. Only the non pro models might have stock for walk in customers.

I might checkout Switch instead.

Normally I would think these are template replies to customers and when launch day happen they will definitely have some stocks kept for walk ins...but looking at this year’s pre-order being splitted to batch 1/2/3..it’s going to be tough for walk-in customers..
*
Yup, surely they’ll have limited stock for walk in customers. Maybe 5 units each depending on outlet size.

There’s no apple store in malaysia.

Only resellers. And I doubt anyone would this year.

I believe last year also no one camped. Customers usually line up in the morning just before the stores open.

I have to applaud your determination for being there at 630am. Eleh, u go try la at some telco company, like DIGI or something, I heard telcos ada for walk in. But I don’t know how true is that. All the best ok.

Telco only offer with mobile plan bundle. They don't sell the phone alone.

I’m queuing up at machines the curve since 6.30am, was so excited when i’m the first one & no one else was around yet.

Then 8am the staff came & opened up store, one of them came & asked me did i pre-order, i said no. Then he said sorry today we don’t have stock for walk in customer at all, only for those already pre-ordered 🥲

Thanks for the info. That's bad of Machines.

Confirm no walk-in purchases at Machines for the time being. Only preorders.

This year 13 series demand seems to be higher than 12 series. It's only a minor update and yet fans love their iPhones.
