Luckily it was only for some back cover right? Should be a small amount of money. Take it as a lesson. What to do?

You have to unban him for the time being. Ask him to come in here and explain to his buyers and make sure he send them their orders first before you ban him again....

Pity the buyers with their hard earned money. sweat.gif

well people still take the risk despite all the disputes going around, so this is the price.

He was perma banned for another reason, so I’m not lifting that for this.

Plus, I was told he never deal his biz within lyn, he only deal on WhatsApp (isn’t it obvious lol?), so whatever discussed on WhatsApp should be kept within it.

Ah... then nothing much could be done then.

Well at least he replied. Hopefully you guys receive your items in a few days time. I'm surprised though how you guys could tolerate his rudeness.

I'm sure there are many more silent readers falling victim to this scam. If the seller fails to ship within the specified time those who got conned should create a group and create a dispute thread on this seller.
You guys should also make police reports on the seller individually so that the police could further investigate.

JasonthegreatTWO has started a dispute thread on the said seller.

Dispute thread.

Those who have paid and have yet to receive your items can state your case on the above thread.

I pmed that KC and was given his WhatsApp no and he gave me the price. The. I pm-ed 2 of the earliest members that got their product. 1 of them even offered to sell me his unit at COD.

I almost ordered from him but wife told me not to because she wants to see the phone in person before buying the casing. Yes, she’s not in msia and the country she’s currently situated had their iPhones launching slower than us

Then I just did a simple search using Truecaller just now and his number was stated as “scammer Carousell Eric”

The chamfered edges of the camera lenses could also get scratches if you are not careful when handling your phone. Not only the lenses itself.

That is why there always is a need for camera TGs. nod.gif

I was at machines earlier and compared all the colours, silver is indeed nicest amongst the lot, only thing is if you want people to know you are using the latest, to make your moment spent well, then it has to be purple unfortunately.. especially for those who upgrade yearly, they tend to stick to colour of the year coz it's already very little to look forward, colour being one of it..

Couldn't agree more on that... nod.gif

one question regarding purchase thru Apple website

why is it banks will charge additional 1% on top of the invoice amount
*
Foreign Transaction Fees/ Cross Border Transaction fees or whatever the banks want to call it. But I dont get it why banks still charge it because the transaction is through Apple.MY and in RM.

I have bought a few times from Apple.my years ago but never got charged for it. Maybe you can try to ask your bank to waive it for you.

On paper the iphone 14pm battery is better than iphone 13pm , last year when i got the 13pm the battery life surpassed my expectation. The battery performance outlast any other phone i’ve owned previously.
Should be the indexing causing the drain.
*
Apple quotes exactly the same battery life numbers for the iPhone 14 Pro Max as for the iPhone 13 Pro Max.

But the battery size on the 13 Pro Max is actually slight bigger than the 14 Pro Max.

iPhone 14 Pro Max battery size: 4,323 mAh (less than 1% smaller)
iPhone 13 Pro Max battery size: 4,352 mAh

So technically, the battery life should be better on the 13 Pro Max.

On paper that is. I have both 13 Pro Max and 14 Pro Max with me. I don't feel the 14 Pro Max has better battery life. Maybe even slightly poorer batttery life on the 14 Pro Max.

you were saying technically...

1% decrease in battery size
15-20% increase in power efficiency

so technically the 14pm should have a better battery life than the 13pm..
*
QUOTE(dikae @ Oct 4 2022, 01:29 PM)
tested a few things like without AOD, and dimmed AOD etc etc.. conclusion, 13PM has slightly better battery over 14 PM but its so little that you won't really notice it on a normal use..if I'm going to do a rough comparison though, my normal usage from morning till evening will have about 65% left....the 13 PM should have around 70-72% (just a rough estimation)...AOD takes away another 15-20% even with the dimmed focus..
*
Yes, based on paper that is. But in real life, the results vary much differently. However some independant test do show the 14 Pro Max has better battery life contrary to user experiences.

I concur and can vouch too that my 14 Pro Max has equal, if not better battery life than my previous 13 Pro Max. Anyone who wants to test to compare the two must also remember to disable AOD on the 14 Pro Max - to make it a fair comparison. 😄
*
Yup.. AOD turned off. App Refresh for Facebook also turned off. FB is one of the main battery drainer for our phones. shakehead.gif

Now still tinkering with the settings here and there to try to save on battery usage.

Tried to monitor my 14 Pro Max battery again today just to make sure the good battery performance I had yesterday was not a fluke. Haha.

Today was out the whole day since 7.00 a.m. and was on 4G mobile data 90% of the time as I was on the move constantly even until now. Battery seemed to sustain itself well.

Last charged to 100% yesterday midnight, and currently at 8.5 hours SOT. Usage wise remains the same with the usual suspects - WhatsApp, Safari, Phone Calls and Work Apps. 

Very impressed as I was running Mobile Data predominately. ❤️
And only connected to Wi-Fi for very short brief periods throughout the data.

From what I remember, my previous 13 Pro Max battery didn’t do so well under Mobile Data compared to Wi-Fi.

I'm actually more impressed on how you got 11 hours ++ of SOT in half a day on full charge. laugh.gif

Seem like you are constantly looking at your phone. laugh.gif

I have also disabled AOD, but will turn it on once in a while, just coz it’s cool smile.gif

Also notice the 14PM charges faster than 13PM..

With the same charger?

I think there isn’t enough space for message displaying on the Dynamic Island. Or do you mean just a fancy animation? 😁
Yeah. More and more will soon love their iPhones. ☺️☺️☺️
Hahaha. I wish it was all fun though. My line of work relies on WhatsApp more than 50% of the time to communicate with my team and clients. So I kinda do real work on it. 🤣

Which was also why my Fold 4 previously had to be literally tethered to a power bank the whole day. Such a relief not having to do that now with the iPhone! 😂

Maybe turn off app refresh for whatsapp? hmm.gif

WhatsApp for me so far has no issues with background app refresh turned on on the iPhone.

Because whatsapp is the no 1 battery drain/usage on your stats. Maybe turn of background app refresh to see if it makes any difference or improvement on battery life.

QUOTE(dikae @ Oct 4 2022, 09:55 PM)
Yes, same charger and cable..just a slight difference but noticeable..

Different conditions @ cooler room temperature, different cable, different type of casing could yield different charge times bro. nod.gif
