QUOTE(jonthebaptist @ Dec 11 2024, 04:23 PM) Some images in the link below, the charging cable is braided, very nice touch. Also now I understand why people buying multiple of this device, it's so small. If only someone makes a power bank that is small with 3-pin AC outlet, totally can become my new laptop. https://imgur.com/a/zYjgitWeh can plug in to another laptop and use the screen of the laptop for mac ya, i didnt know can do that lol

They said will help me check with the delivery person and get back to me. But, no response after that. This post has been edited by ohkeat: Dec 11 2024, 06:07 PM

I gave up hope already. Unlikely they will be able to deliver today, even though in the system it shows out for delivery. This has never happened to any other courier companies I have used before. Will avoid GDex at all cost in future. All my previous online Apple purchases, they used DHL, probably because they were shipped from ShenZhen China.

Always arrive on time if not earlier. Never this late in the day. The status is still out for delivery but don't tell me they will deliver at 10 pm??

Not sure why they chose GDEX now. IIRC since 2022 already GDEX when I buy other APPLE stuffs.. even not directly from apple, celcom also need to use GDEX for apple.

Anyone using Mac mini with sub 4k monitor? For example WUXGA resolution or 2k monitor How's your experience? I've tried on these types of monitor and so far not satisfied with font sharpness. Also tried better display app. Seems not so much different. My windows laptop with these displays have better sharpness.
