Hopefully it won’t be crazy price. sweat.gif If 2x PM price, I gotta skip Ultra. cry.gif

Looks like your true intention has been revealed. laugh.gif

It was rumored to be about $100-$200 extra from the base Pro Max. Anyway we will find out soon enough.

I'm just afraid they will abandon 256GB and start with 128GB, then 512GB, 1TB and 2TB. sad.gif

256GB is the sweet spot for me because I have iCloud of 2TB.
*
Apple is smart cause they don’t give 1TB. Straight jump to 2TB on their iCloud.

Ever thought of using onedrive? It was rough initially. Onedrive for photos was in total disarray. However, they finally got their shit done and even support Live photos.. nod.gif

Upload is fine, download has recently improved, streaming has a bit of a lag, certainly not Netflix level but if you combine with family of 6 users it roughly sums up to just rm60 a year per person for 1TB of Onedrive cloud storage that includes all Microsoft Office Apps for Mac as well.

SG so fast got already? Or they put wrongly?

Singapore is a develop market plus it is a very small market la… not hard to fulfill on first released together with the US. Even if everyone buys one can’t beat Malaysia’s volume.

Ya, one week after the US and no more suspense. I think the last time we got this good is the 11 Pro. But the island stays. Maybe only next iPhone will be gone. But oh wow usb-c!!!!!!! Finally!!

Thank God no iPhone 15 Ultra.

Yeah, iPhone 15 Pro Max 256GB is coming to me. biggrin.gif
*
Lol ya. Whew! Anyway looks like 15 Pro and the 15 Pro Max has separate cameras spec like the 12 Pro again but this time more noticeable with the optical zoom. Why can’t they make it the same like the 13 Pro and 14 Pro.

QUOTE(fruitie @ Sep 13 2023, 03:01 AM)
Oh ya. laugh.gif How can I forget my own model? tongue.gif My bad. iPhone 12 was announced in 2020 by the way.

Now I need to get AW Ultra 2 as well, praying hard for money to fall from skies.

iPhone 12 Pro Max is the only time we get same time released with the US.

I like the zoom lens or rumored as periscope lens. I use zoom function a lot when I go watching concerts. laugh.gif Though my partner has a Samsung Ultra S23 to take videos and photos every time we watch concerts, it’s on top of our iPhone 12 PM and 13 PM but we both welcome this 5x optical zoom on iPhone 15 PM. We are definitely getting the 15 PM.

Welcome welcome your partner to the iPhone. You guys will totally enjoy airdrop. rclxm9.gif

indeed.

basically upgrades:
1) Action button
2) usb-c (20x faster transfer speed)
3) A17 Pro chip - 10% faster for CPU and 20% for GPU
4) 5x optical zoom (for Pro Max model)
5) Precision Finding
6) Titanium frame and slimmer bezels

Maybe this is the reason why bolehland gets to buy the iphone 15 series earlier (one week later than 1 batch countries)? becos this technically means that they dun forsee it will have so high demands comparing to the past? i recalled previously when iphone is still in high demand time, they dun even announce the pre-order/launch date for second batches or 3 batches countries so early also.

Hopeless already. Bolehland is even behind Thailand for this launch. rolleyes.gif

Saving is less than RM300, not really substantial laugh.gif

The biggest appeal is the ability of getting AppleCare+ if buying SG set.
Hello!

eSIM is great, I'm using it as well. I wonder if Maxis fixed their eSIM transfer these days else it will require a visit to their store for a new QR code.
It's looking more like a fabric material based on those hands on review, probably something similar to Cordura fabric

Click to zoom in and see the details

Edit: I just had a look at my Cordura fabric mouse pad, the texture looks exactly the same. laugh.gif

eSIM is the best and have been vouching for eSIM even for frequent international traveller since the iPhone X.

dont care of the extra 5x optical zoom? unavailable on IP15P
*
Imo optical zoom is good. It is something tangible. It isn’t like the 12pro and pro max back then about sensor shift optics and better low light which is soo subjective. Plus now is titanium frame and the pro max is now lighter as well.

I did not like the pro max then cause it is really heavy. It is also no joke and if you are the type that only use three fingers to support the weight of the phone.

as always 12am.

12am was Lazada’s/Shopee timing which also falls on launch day.

Apple’s preorder should follow 8pm to 9pm prime time a week before launch day. Then pretty much every other website does the same after that.

It is my first time buying from authorized dealers. Are all these dealers available to order on the 22nd as well? I plan to pre-order online and pick it up from their physical stores. I want to order from Machines and pick it up from their The Gardens outlet so that I can do my eSIM there as well. Digi Centre is there.
*
I remembered one forumer pre-ordered 12PM from Apple before and noticed it was at a later delivery date. She then cancelled the order from Apple website and bought one from the Machines website and managed to collect it on day 1.

Usually Apple Store will show a later date but they will deliver earlier but yeah there is a risk.
I see.
Damn my partner is getting Black Titanium 1TB this Friday in BKK physical Apple Store. cry.gif

Yes but 2020, the iPhone 12 release year was the first year Apple.com does preorder for Malaysia and everyone else follows suit. That time nobody knows for sure bust just follows what is stated on Apple’s website. I am damn sure there is no preorder for iPhone 11 Pro Max other than the 12am launch date purchase because launch date was on the 27th and my planned proposal to my then gf is on the 28th. tongue.gif

So ya that’s why I have this great love with Lazada Apple authorized reseller. rclxm9.gif thumbup.gif

In SG, pre-order starts tomorrow, 8pm. My friend told me based on her experience, can get it on that weekend.

I’m thinking to pre-order tomorrow too. There is option for 0% interest instalment for 12 or 24 months if you order at SG apple official website with certain credit cards.

I am thinking Apple MY will have some sort of installment once the first Apple store opens here in TRX. Anyway, the biggest benefit for us when we send in for repair is that we may hear no more of those stupid “oh we don’t how long it will takes but at least 2 weeks because we need to get the stocks from Singapore” doh.gif
