soonwai Does it come with the screen protector? My personal preference for temporary use is black color case with a lens cover.

Nope, just case only.

Hello guys, may i know how the trade-in program works ya?

I’m thinking to trade-in my 12PM for 16PM. Wondering how am I going to transfer all my data from old to new if wanna trade-in.
*
When you order on Apple's website, just indicate that you want to do a trade-in. You'll receive the 16PM, do your transfer then only send your 12pm to Apple. You have x number of days. The trade-in price is not that great though.

Yeap another boring year with minimal upgrades. Never thought of upgrading until i see the price..

Wonder if the rear camera lenses are bigger than the 14/15 pros or same size again..

QUOTE(isr25 @ Sep 10 2024, 09:31 AM)
From the pictures, looks like bigger lenses

Bigger. Based on UGreen's ip16pm case. Phone in photo is ip15pm.

13PM user here... working fine, but well always wanted better camera  laugh.gif

Hmm, worth the upgrade? Was thinking this round they would have deleted the pill... but still ada pill aiya.

Almost same here, ip13p. Going to get the ip16pm this time. Need bigger screen. I think it's wiser to wait for ip17. ip13p no problem to last another year or 2 but my kid is complaining that I wait too long to pass my phone to her. Last was ipx to ip13p.

1 year upgrade cycle is too soon IMO considering how advance/powerful the recent phones are. Only makes sense if the phone is paid for by company/someone. laugh.gif
*
Yeah, mine is usually 3/4 years. ip6s -> ipx then ipx -> ip13p.

But if one has the money, okay lah.

Planning to purchase this IP16 Pro Max as a gift. For delivery via Apple Store MY, does the person who order be required to be the one who signs off the receipt of delivery?
*
No need, I purchased iPad M2 from apple.com and DHL (not eCommerce) just asked for my name during delivery. Same for the last few purchases, all by DHL, all no need ID.

Strangely enough, I still got cashback for Applecare+ for my August iPad M2 purchase.

Do you all trade-in your old phones at the Apple Store?
*
Haven't traded in before but I believe Machines' and Switch's trade-in is higher than Apple's. Went through the motions of an apple.com trade-in and was offered RM1900 for my ip13p 256GB.

Private sale is always better. Just wait a bit for the fallout from Lazada's/Shopee's crazy 9/9 prices to die down a bit.

Hey bros…. Sorrry for stupid question.

Normally after a new iPhone launch, apple discontinues selling the older gen pro phone.

How about switch/machines yea? Will they be clearing their stock for some time? Or they will stop selling the older gen pro phones on the dot on 20 Sep?
*
Yeah, they'll keep selling them while stocks last. But the discounts won't be a lot. Buy online if you can, prices are a bit crazy this year.

RM2924.29 for an ip15pm 256GB or RM3124.29 if Shopee coins are not useful for you.

At this price, I can trade-in my ip13p for RM1900 and use that RM1900 towards the ip15pm for my kid instead of passing down the ip13p to her. So just RM1024.39 for an ip15pm. Of course, full price for the ip16pm.

To be honest, i wonder how well will the camera shutter button work with a thicker casing... hmm.gif
Hopefully 17 will have a complete redesign. Maybe thinner iphone 17 air or a foldable?  thumbup.gif
*
I think Apple's and more expensive ones will have glass or crystal where the Camera Control button will be.

The cheaper cases will probably have a cutout. Like the UGreen one below I bought for RM22.06 from Lazada.

when this price appear?

On 9/9. Keep on eye on the ITWorld & Apple Flagship Store sellers. Switch, Machines & SenHeng also discounted but not so much.

8/8 also but about around RM3300. Maybe 10/10 will be cheaper if there're still stocks. 9/9 stocks all seem be to Blue Titanium only.

I have this Sandisk. E30 is the cheaper one. Also Kingston XS1000/XS2000.

Or make your own if you have a spare 2230 SSD. This one is quite small and has magnets.

Can i know if we taking the 12 month or 24 month zero percent installment, it must be done on credit card ? Or debit card can be done also?
*
Credit card because debit card don't have a credit line for them to put aside for your iPhone.

Speaking of credit cards. Any promos? RM100 vouchers? RM50 vouchers?

May I know which storage option you guys are going to buy?
Is 256gb sufficient for now?

I think I'll stick to 256GB this round. Currently ip13p only using 69GB. In fact I turn off "Optimise Photos" and can still fit my iPhoto library which is around 162GB.

How is the after sales service for switch/urban republic? Is their service better than machines??

All about the same, good. If not apple.com then I usually buy from Switch or UR even though they're further. But for service, I use Machines cos they are closer.

*
