Hi everyone,

I have a question that if I want to purchase iPhone 17 Pro Max at Apple Store and would like to trade in my old device.

If the payment method I choose is Touch N Go EWallet, may i know the refund amount of my old device is back to Touch N Go EWallet or Apple will issue gift card?

Not sure about TnG eWallet but if it’s credit card, it will be refunded back to that credit card.

I saw several mention getting flolab.. although I'm a known supporter. Do wait a bit before committing.

Problem with getting 1st wave iphone... Need some time for accessories to come in. Best way.. I think get some cheap enough alternative and switch to better ones later.

Sometimes I really wonder if fast charging affects the battery health because I have been using 100w adapter since years ago and my 16 Pro Max is still 100% battery health after almost a year.

I guess set the limit to 80% makes a difference.

I’ve been charging my iPhone 16 Pro Max to 100% every night since I had it for almost a year now and the battery health is 99% still. That’s good enough for me smile.gif

I came across this thread on Reddit (a two-year old thread btw) - Why do you buy the new iPhone every year?: https://www.reddit.com/r/iPhone14Pro/commen...one_every_year/

This reply attracts my attention as he speaks my mind. laugh.gif
Spend RM 5999 and trade-in for RM 3500 and pay RM 2499 for a new iPhone, worth it? I guess so though it sounds like I'm just a renting a phone. laugh.gif

Hahaha, good stuff! This is the same reply I give my friends/family members when they ask me that too. But sometimes when I too lazy to answer or if I don’t particularly liked the person who asked me I just say “coz I can afford it”…

hi how to check if i can buy iphone 17 pro max cheaper with maxis contract?

Here you go: -

https://iphone.maxis.com.my/

I just realized I’m eligible to sign a maxis contract too this round but I think I’ll just buy from the Apple Store and maybe consider downgrading my existing plan from them.

Not too bad considering you charge to 100% every night. Considered very good I should say.

I’m too poor to say “coz I can afford it”. laugh.gif

After you choose model and key in your serial number, you will see the expected amount.

Thank you!

Just wondering does battery health affect the trade in value?
For example 78% or 85% etc

No. As long as there’s no physical damage like battery bloating, your battery health will not affect the trade-in value. Majority of devices traded in to Apple are marked for refurbishing, so they will replace the battery before selling as refurbished unit.

If iPhone 17 is iPhone 17 plus I believe more ppl will buy it, Becos most ppl especially Asians had gotten used to big display already. No doubt 17 this year has the best CP value, but I guess those who get used to bigger display may not buy it.

I think this is the real reason why Apple killed the plus actually.

Ultimately, many may be forced to buy the pro max after all.
My iPhone SE first gen also bloated. I love the phone very much. Not it cannot be used anymore.

I noticed guys tend to use Pro or vanilla. Girls tend to take PM and Plus. But that just my circle la. For me, the plain vanilla iPhone and Pro size is already pushing it... i really loved Mini - with 1 hand its a wonder. Oh, and I got perfect eyesight so that works. I do laugh at older folks (my friends) who need to adjust bigger text size.

If guys just stick in pocket, PM and Plus is... well.. no space cause my junk need that space.
