Any Pos Office Malaysia will do?

Not sure if it is ANY, but in the trade in page/app once you choose drop off they have the locator for you to choose near your address.


QUOTE(neekun @ Sep 24 2024, 04:04 PM)
So just walk into pos office and tell them wanted to send back phone to Apple and they will provide you prepaid packing materials ?
*
Yes, just tell them you want to return Apple product and give them the drop off code.

Hey I’m asking for a colleague who is about to go through the same process, he say upon checking out, before the payment page. There’s a section where you put your address and they send you the trade in kit…does it mean after you PO, you need to wait for them to deliver the trade in kit, then bring the kit to pos laju and deliver the package back to Apple?
*
He has to choose if he wants to arrange pick up/drop off later after he check out.
If pick up then the courier will come with the trade in box kit on the day you choose for pick up. If drop off then you go to the Pos Malaysia with your phone and they have the return packaging all ready.

Just wonder how u guys survive with clear case 😅 , wont it full of finger print and micro scratch...🥲
*
Fingerprints are easy to wipe away, and when the TPU sides gets yellowed just rebuy them since they are "quite cheap"
It takes around 6-12 months to yellow. The sanptoch one in my previous iPhones uses tempered glass as back, so hardly any micro scratches.

I used to buy ESR stuff, maybe 2/3 years ago, when they were still quite new. Prices were really affordable back then. But nowadays become so expensive already.

ESR is much older than that, i bought their cases more than 8 years ago sweat.gif

Magic v3 is a solid phone, and ur dad and mum must be excited to enjoy the ipad mini size phone, more friendly to them to watch video , and after fold in , and pocket size
*
Yes it's their first expensive phone, so it's good i managed to convince them to splurge since they are not young anymore. Bigger screen easier on their eyes too.
If i'm not invested in Apple's ecosystem i would have jumped as well lol

folding screens.... takut LOL

lol, tech has been around for at least 5 years now, so it isn't as fragile/bad as last time i think sweat.gif

Today finally send in to pos laju for iPhone trade in. Pos laju folks really know what to do. They would give you proper packaging to send back in.

My luck is bad, system lock for 1 hour or something. Had to return, but the staff there prepared the slip and etc. super efficient.
Apple system really screw up… in Apple Store app, updated status as sent for trade in. But email send reminder to send in for trade in.
*
The trade in offer is really fast though. Within 1-2 days after they received your phone they will email you their offer.
My phone had 2 small paint chips, still got the maximum trade value.

Your money your choice.
Personally I only rely on those famous reviewers that I listen on, such as MKBHD/Dave2D.

MKBHD is an Apple shill, he lost a number of viewers and his credibility especially after his Apple's testing lab tour

For me a phone should be fairly compact and fits comfortably in your hand. Meaning no big bulge/tight fit in your jeans & easy one hand operation.

Only reason I'll jump to a bigger screen is they have implemented a durable/stable foldable screen. For a phone the Pro size screen is more than enough, if I want bigger it better be at least a iPad mini size tablet screen of at last 7.9"

My 2nd Torras 360 case arrived, oh wow I love the functionality of this case, the stand is so versatile.
The camera cutout button isn’t as good as my other Torras but still easy to use and not an issue at all for me.
But considering I’ll be using the stand a lot more often than the camera cutout, this was a no brainer.

I have almost the same Torras case for my 15PM and it’s all good with this case except I feel it’s a tad heavy. Anyway, since I’m going to trade in the 15PM soon, my second sis who’s also using a 15PM will inherit all my 15PM cases including this.
*
Yes, it is a bit heavier than all the clear cases lol
I'm planning to get another Sanptoch clear case, they just released one that covers the camera square section.


QUOTE(Andrewtst @ Sep 29 2024, 11:42 PM)
I also like TORRAS, got some for my 15PM, currently got one TORRAS case only plan to purchase, I love the design and color - ONEO desert gold.
*
Torras quality is great, however their pricing has really jumped like x3 times compared to pre-covid times sweat.gif


QUOTE(vez @ Sep 30 2024, 08:13 AM)
wonder still can wireless charge your phone with the case on?
*
Yes, it is a MagSafe case

Gone were the days when I splurge on many expensive cases laugh.gif
I just buy cheap clear cases, preserve the natural phone looks & cheap to replace as well.

I tried to convince myself that RM 1250 was already subsidized by the company last year. tongue.gif So give and take. Suddenly with ready stock and it is hard to resist.

My friend who pre-ordered with Maxis only on 20th Sept, until today she hasn't got the phone yet. ETA is 4th Oct.
*
Ughh I wished I claimed from my company as well, but I already told my wife I'll buy the phone with the invoice under her name so she could use it for her income tax relief sweat.gif

Not sure whether iOS 18 is supported, just did the opposite for my mum when moving from iPhone to Android.
Didn't work since iOS 18 was so new and probably not updated yet, so I used her older iPhone using earlier iOS version and transferred to Android. Similarly if you have an older iPhone pre-iOS 18, you could transfer from your Android to the older iPhone then from the older iPhone to the newer iOS 18 if it doesn't work directly from Android to iOS 18.

Rushed out to see my friends for lunch appointment and coincidentally my Spigen case arrived. Ordered yesterday and got it in less than 24H. Yay. Finally, the camera control button is covered. Though it’s not my favorite color, frost black as it hinders the beauty of desert titanium but it’s still not too bad la. laugh.gif

They have the clear white available in stock since yesterday on Lazada though. Time to return and re-buy innocent.gif

yes i know, i pay now i can receive in 1-2 days. I just bought a m3 macbook air 16gb 512gb from them 2 weeks back.

already have 15pm, could care less about the shutter button. But then 4k120fps video rec + audio mix is good enough of an upgrade perhaps... hmm.gif

Are you a vlogger/youtuber/social mediagrapher etc? If not you will hardly ever use that feature.

None of the above. lol

Just like video recording + editing for my family/kid purposes. Anything to do with cinematography I like haha
*
Would you actually record your kid at 120fps? I’d only do that for slowmo and very rare, the file size is huge. Other than that 60fps is more than enough. Even cinematic videos usually use 24-30fps.

That camera button in general already not that nice to use in my opinion. 😅

I find it somehow gimmick, never use much, touching screen much easier, steady and faster.
*
I did mention before the phone started shipping that most will find it gimmicky like the MacBook Touch Bar sweat.gif
The only time I find it a bit more useful is:
1) Selfie
2) A bit more faster when using manual controls for camera, e.g. aperture, exposure (ISO/SS with 3rd party)
