Pre-order allows for a later pick-up date right? I am not around (overseas) and will be back only later.

Make sure you choose retailers or telcos which let's u pay in full and then select a later date for collection. Some retailers only collect a pre order deposit like switch and u pay the balance when you collect your phone.

Thanks! Yes, I am going to go with a telco contract (cheaper cost for the phone) and also to support them as my customer.

Yes, Knox is a Samsung security product which they use and also sell to corporates especially companies who hand out mobile phones to employees

OT: I also bought some straps and cases for the Ultra 2. Good news, SIRIM has approved Ultra 2 today! It is finally coming to Malaysia. biggrin.gif

Woohoo, finally! Been missing an Apple watch ever since I gave my Ultra 1 to my wife to use.

Yeah, I cannot live without AW these days. I'm still using AW6 and can't wait to upgrade to U2. biggrin.gif

I have my AW5 but the battery dies way too early in the day that I have stopped wearing it and reverted to a mechanical watch instead

Nice .. i'm contemplating between nomad modern or horween..

My preference actually was the Horween leather but it wasn't in stock (I ordered through the official store on Shopee). Hence chose the Modern Leather. Feels as nice as my old Horween leather case which I had gotten for my iPhone XR

Hi all, what are the disadvantages of buying the iPhone 15 PM from telcos like Maxis? It should still have warranty by Apple  and can go to service centres like Machines, etc?....and can also buy the Apple Care Protection Plan right? Thanks
*
The disadvantage is that you need to sign up for a post paid plan or a plan which means getting into a contract with the telco. The advantages with that, you get the phone cheaper via the telcos.

not sure if telco subsidize cheaper vs prepaid these days... you might save more buying outright and getting yourself prepaid
*
It depends for different individuals. I have been blessed that my job covers my phone bills so jumping on a postpaid plan was never an issue. So for those who are still going to use postpaid plans, the better option is to let the telco subsidize the cost of the phone.

Just had a scare with my IP15PM, woke up to see that the screen was completely black. Could hear that the screen went to the passcode entry as I can hear clicking sound. Whatever I did couldn't seem to turn on the screen as well. Ended up having to Google for a solution to reboot the phone.

Steps: Volume Up (press once), Volume Down (press once), Main power button

Hopefully it's just software issue instead of hardware, else will be headache for sure

Initially thought it was a hardware issue but thankfully the reboot brought it back again.

I think I got brainwashed by the constant Nomad adverts I keep seeing on social media. Fell into temptation and bought the matching pair sweat.gif sweat.gif sweat.gif

Any recommendation for the magnetic car mount for IP15 PM?

I am currently using this MagSafe aircon vent mount for my IP15PM

Was using it since when I got my IP12PM.

Somebody recommend this Charby Orbit
https://shp.ee/rdcnfy7

Mine still OTW. I’m tempted to get their magsafe charger too as the price at the lower side compare to few other brand

Ugreen also have a more compact & cheaper, sold thousands.. good review from shoppers too.. might get this 1..

I had the UGreen one but due to the material in which my dash is, the glue doesn't really hold on well and it flew off when I was driving through winding roads LOL

Yes, got explore this.

At the same time, trying to compare to another similar as below
https://shopee.com.my/%E3%80%901Yr-Warranty...aa-026d72895743

Still thinking which one is better.
*
For me, it would be based on my car's aircon vent design and how the clip works with it. I have tried some which also flies off during winding turns LOL

I finally realised that this USB-C iPhone really opens up a lot of conveniences for me. EG the other day i was thinking to buy extra USB-C cable to use in the car, but lo and behold, i realise that i have other devices that use USB-C and have extra cables anyways! So don't need to buy extra! And all my SSD and USB-C pendrive can be used with the iphone! Like finally!!

I know Android phones have long enjoyed such conveniences (I was using android phones a lot too) but I can finally enjoy it on my iphone too. Happy!
*
I love the convenience, my only complaint now is that my Airpods Pro and the Airpods Pro Max are still on Lightning so I have to carry that about sad.gif
