The last time I backed up my phone to replace my iPhone 12 Pro Max battery, my eSIM information was still intact when I restored everything from iCloud. I guess it won't work the same when I change to a new iPhone, right?

Same phone works. Transfer to new doesn’t work. Cause the QR code ties to your imei or some phone identifier.

So far I only seen Maxis has esim transfer.. didn’t see digi, CELCOM or umobile.

Maybe a mistake and Apple could penalize the courier companies because this is strictly not allowed.
OK then. Luckily Fridays are like my off days. laugh.gif So many things to settle, get the phone, apply tempered glass, get eSIM done.

Finally you upgrading? I remember we all 12PM. I jump to 13PM and you didn’t.

This time 15PM is a hard pass for me.

Esim, for maxis, you can request ahead cause it doesn’t get activated until you scan qr and go through process. I think digi can do the same?

Found the link, only maxis listed under “Wireless network providers that support eSIM Quick Transfer”

When I transfer from old iPhone to new iPhone, will everything still intact on the old phone too? iCloud backup by the way.
*
Yes until you choose to format it. Don't use backup restore method. Just put phones next to each other, scan the floaty sand thingies and let it transfer. Fastest way.

Don't remember what's the method name. hmm.gif

Kinda bummed that the Apple store is slower this time.

Check post earlier. Apple store since 12 already no longer delivery on launch day. The benefit is, you don't need to go hunt around. Sure thing it will get delivered as indicated.

it's noticable and even i'm a dumb fella on minor scratches, i can see it. There's a line near the usb port...

Return it, get iphone later is not as bad as getting a not perfect set. it's Apple. Perfection is expected.

I got the same message and just picked mine up from i-City, they even have a mini launch event with some light refreshments smile.gif So chances are your unit is ready to be picked up at the centre you chose.
Yes, and that’s why I opted self pick-up, didn’t wanna sit at home and wait and wait and wait - learned from my previous experience with the 13 Pro Max laugh.gif
Yeah bro, my unit looks pristine. Maxis guy opened my phone to check and make a phone call (he says this is mandatory for those collecting it in person - I have no idea) and said if he the phone call doesn’t go through they’ll give a 1-to-1 replacement, but will not offer the same for cosmetic defects. Says its instructions from Apple - again, I have no idea how true that is too.
*
Only check phone call? What about data usage via Wifi/data, display etc...Must be a more older Maxis person testing. It's like the days of nokia phones, testing phone call is the most important.

I still prefer order from Apple online, if unlucky just trigger free return, no question asked, don't even need to debate scratches and etc (of course need to document it, in case viewed as we damage it).

Can i convert physical SIM to eSIM directly with the iPhone as per https://support.apple.com/en-my/guide/iphon...ph3f11fba92/ios, or need to go to Maxis?

Currently using iPhone X... still waiting for my 15 Pro to be delivered...

Sad to hear this. I collected mine already this morning.
Not bad, so many free gifts.
I'm restoring from iCloud now and it is stuck not moving for a while already, "Time remaining: estimating..." Normal?
*
Shouldn’t do iCloud restore. Option is like phone to phone transfer.

https://support.apple.com/en-my/HT210216

Method 1… things might change a bit… I last transfer was 13PM. Haha.

This method I cannot use my phone and a lot of feedback here. Some said iCloud better, some said this. I also don't know. :sewat:

Anyway, it is moving now 13H to go. laugh.gif
I still can continue using my old phone, right?

I use my head as chopping board. iPhone to iphone or quick transfer as it is called. Putting side to side is fastest and most convenient. Notice the two words together?

Or because you using thick case for your 13pm

This is the interesting part, yes 19g. But it’s noticeable. I thought was case, took it off, still noticeable.

Don’t just listen to me, go try yourself, you will know.

I believe it’s the same for Samsung Fold/S22/S23, the weight distribution is much better to me comparing with 12/13 PM. This time around, Apple did it well.

Not just difference. Trying to go for the S cycle. Like IPhone 15 is new titanium and etc, last year was new dynamic island. That’s why skip skip. If next year, not much rumors on big changes, will go for that. Late to the party is fine with me. Getting older, don’t fancy so much but would like new gadgets.

Any stock available for PM 256gb NT?

No. That outlet all out, just open for collection which is not many if i peek in their store room.
Can place back order but looking at 6-8 weeks.

That’s what i been preaching, maybe many miss my post earlier. Putting iPhone next to each other is fastest and most convenient. Quick transfer is the name (today i found out, hahah).

Maybe I’m dumb, but I read somewhere people commented that this iPhone quick transfer can sometime transfer bug which causes phone to be weird acting.. I don’t know if this is true or just hoax - since 14 pro has bad battery

I don't think it's just quick transfer. Even icloud restore could cause issue.

My area also, for example this time they call me and ask whether I at home or not as if I not at home they cannot deliver as they not delivery to 3rd person.

I remember back now they also call me when I request delivery to my office where my office had provide a box for them to put inside, but they told me they cannot do that, they insist the receiver owner to receiving the item.
*
I think very much depends on the delivery person covering your area.

DHL experience chill, handover to my family members although I'm in the hoise. (Macbook pro, iphone, ipad, ipad keyboard,,)

Gdex insist I come down. Else send whatsapp confirmation I can surrender over.
