Ayam think its the only way M40 can enjoy Apple products while still be a reponsible spender.

Ok the last part ayam mode that up lol.

Jokes aside Ayam personaly buy a lot of Apple stuff with 0% installment. Its a no brainer for me.

Haih the wait.
*
yeah cause if its 0% instalment also, why not right?

only difference if order from apple store is if you want engraving

impulse purchased liao sweat.gif

walked home with Ultra White Ocean band cause they didnt have the green alpine loop for sale, or any alpine ones. so i picked the one which is waterproof hehe

gotta say the band while super snug its still quite PITA to put on. im too used to standard sports band being one handed operation. this one has to kiap the watch abit more before can lock

Hi, want to ask those bought apple watch from Apple Store Malaysia.

I received the invoice mentioned it's from Singapore Apple. Also, asked machines in lazada, they dont recognize the invoice if not buy in malaysia.

Do you all know how it works? if need to submit for warranty repair, just in case.
*
all apple warranties are covered internationally. go to official apple MY website also links you to nearest service centre from machines anyway

i once went to Apple SG to request for Genius help in warranty stuff for my XR bought in MY. they still can assist tho they couldnt trigger the warranty claim cause the issue wasnt covered (lol)

QUOTE(shockk @ Oct 17 2022, 09:03 PM)
Yes, large indeed. But still looks good anyway!!! 🥳🥳🥳

Remember the Launch Video by Apple for the Ultra? That’s a lady running with tiny wrists but rocking the Ultra perfectly. 🫠
Hahaha. So fast! Congrats bro! Ocean Band White is nice! Goes well with work attire too. Think it’s also easy to clean. ☑️

poison too strong, this thread helped haha

now trying to setup new watch, somehow old watch last backed up was 2019 da heck

Still contemplating whether to add Cellular or not. At Rm18/month by Maxis, it would be burning money if it’s not gonna actually be used. Most of the time my iPhone is with me, even during my runs outside. 🤔
*
same here, in the end its up to you if you really want to? i prefer my watch to be less drained so i wont use, phone always with me anyway

RM10/18 is like a lunch or two meal these days. quite affordable if your original bill isnt high in first place

anyone knows any store has display unit where we can test abit the strap sizes?
*
according to staff in switch/machines they said display units only officially released in 25th oct in MY with proper table slot bla bla

currently its just they have stocks for buyers and only get the AWU itself (without strap) to be shared as display unit

take it with pinch of salt tho on its legitity

When the Watch is syncing, it is charged to 100%. Playing with the watch for around 10mins and the battery down to 93% already. What the heck. I hope this is not a prolong issue and the battery will be ok after a while. Wandering if you guys are experiencing the same. The battery life is my only reason to upgrade from S7
*
must be the syncing

i just used it off gym today with 70+min workout

entered car to drive 15min to gym at 87% left gym at 84%

Did you enable sleep tracking? Or did you sleep for 1-2 hours daily? Lol

My 6-7 hour sleep daily uses about 7-10 percent battery on the awu. After 10pm my screen goes off every evening and alarms at 5.30am.

Now thinking of it,  might have pressed snooze for 30 minutes. Coz ayam always woke at 6am. Hmmmm. The haptics and alarms does use quite a bit battery. Hmm. Ayam must meditate on this.. lols

My experience with sleep tracking on my ultra is 1% every 1hr slept. Seems to be inline

Using sleep focus and all

also, first world problems, i picked ocean band cause thinking it would be the most least issues in terms of fit and sizing (no need select S/M/L)

but on my wrist it leaves the band marks so obvious laugh.gif

Thanks guys for all the excellent advice above! notworthy.gif notworthy.gif notworthy.gif
Truly appreciate it!

And yeah, come to think of it, I might just give it a go. The freedom of not having to carry the phone with me is intriguing and tempting to have! Having a large 6.7” iPhone in my running attire pocket isn’t exactly the most convenient thing. laugh.gif
*
its always a next level kind of thing to go out without actually holding a phone these days

we long forgotten the days of 90-00s when everyone actually can just go out without phones laugh.gif

Yeah thats true, but still more comfy than the Alpine Loop for sure.

is alpine loop that bad? i tested for about 10-15min wearing it, i think my annoyance with it will be

1. loop based straps generally while more snug and tighter fit, its quite a pain to remove and put on
2. absorbs sweat then become icky

I can't get a good fit with the Ocean loop and didn't enjoy the bulky feeling.  Perhaps, try a fabric band.  It makes a difference and that influences how ppl use the watch. Unfortunately, this guy couldn't get the trail loop (min 2-3).
I love all the Alpine loops for their looks, the solo for most comfort/sleep tracking and somehow use the trail loop less. The trail loop however, is still great and designed specifically for the ultra. I'd probably use it most if I don't have other straps. Amazon has some cheap knockoffs if you want to try any replicas that offer similar comfort at a fraction of the original.
*
no no, i think youve mistaken me haha

band fit fine on my wrist, but it doesnt fit fine on the watch. as in the slide in part to lock the mechanism?

my band still wriggles despite it being latched on. is this a defect or?

my old series 4 bands no issue at all, all super fitting and snug onto the slot

Did you completely push in the second holder into place? Because once you adjusted (elongate) it, you need to lock it back into place so the whole piece is tight.

My Ocean band is quite snug actually, doesn’t wiggle at all. Only the Alpine band wiggles.
*
yep, which is the usual way i do with my old series 4 bands

even not wearing and holding the bands it wobbles abit on the connection between watch and band

QUOTE(bratzz @ Oct 23 2022, 06:03 AM)
Oops...My bad! Posted past midnight and probably was half asleep.. bangwall.gif 

The connectors /end band should fit snugly to the watch. Bring it to AAR? None of my bands wriggles.

right? i went to apple support they told me to go nearest service center/reseller to check if exchangeable since not official apple store haiz
