The only difference is in ownership.
Same like hire purchase to buy vehicles lah.
Until you paid off, the vehicle belongs to the financing company. You don't pay, they come tarik.
For telco set, the financing company is the telco.
they retain the right to bar usage if you did are a bad paymaster. And since Malaysia have a industry-wide ISP blacklist, you will not be able to get telco and internet services from any provider again until you clean up.
i'm not sure if CTOS also note if you are blacklisted in the industry database.

Thats it's why better buy non telco set I was considering a Telco Set cause the price is way way more cheaper than the retail price....now, I need to re-consider then... Thank you... bought hire-purchase/ing Samsung S10+, Samsung A31, iPhone 13 PM, and more that I cannot remember from Maxis; none have this so-called imaginary Device Guard inside. |

QUOTE(lambox105 @ Jul 2 2022, 02:13 PM) which maxis plan? The plan that does not let you keep the phone (around 24 months return old phone and get a new model) has it My sister is on that plan and her s21 has it It may not be an app but i remember it's something that restrict some settings (ex: do a real factory reset) i always take zerolution (noswap), NOT zerolution360 (swap around 24mth or continue paying few additional months to noswap). replace phone because need-to (damaged shard unsafe to put in pocket, no part and battery replacement, or skip to latest update). part of the routine is i always check what's (system) installed after initial boot, because i will remove suspects and social media-anything upfront - especially whatsapp facebook instagram wechat whatever-chat scum of earth) even before sign in to any account; had never seen anything called Device Guard. |

QUOTE(lambox105 @ Jul 2 2022, 02:13 PM) anyway, TS was asking for iPhone hire purchase with telco. i don't think the so-called Maxis Device Guard is anything he needs to be worried of if he really goes for iPhone and Zerolution. |

QUOTE(soul78 @ Jul 3 2022, 09:04 AM) In Merehsia, if buy or get phone from telco's, would it be the phone is locked to their carrier only. So in future only still can use that telco and not others?. Nope. 20 years ago, maybe. Now, I think only Celcom and TM that went back to stone age; lock their B618 modems. |
