Just curious though, what about the custom etc? Last time I bought from Amazon, eBay all settled as it was shipped directly from the USA to Malaysia. What about using forwarding service, will be taxed for items like this?
*
Forwarding services with duty paid service. They will pay for the duty and tax if there is no false declaration. Which mean that you will need to declare true value of item.

I bought ps5 pro from Amazon before, all using this services.

For item that eligible for international shipping, Amazon will charge small amount for import fee deposit, and will refund after 6 months if there is no tax.

Hi there, im new user of AWU3.

Just got my watch last night and straight away i signed up the Maxis Connect Watch Plan for RM20 monthly.

Anyone having issue unable to make calls (call to direct numbers) with the AWU3 only?

Mine not able to, press call it straight hang up, but it able to call if the "FaceTime Audio" is available if its an iPhone user.

And it only show 4G never see 5G before (my RM139 Plan got 5G).

Tried to troubleshoot with Maxis in Whatsapp, not helping at all.

Tried unpair and re-pair, still the same.

And the connection always show empty bars, but once turn off the Cellular and turn back on, will jump to full bar,

I think 5G not enable by Telco’s for apple watch for now. So telco should work on it with Apple similar to iphone when DNB launch initially

I see. But based on how Maxis brand their Connect Plan, it seems to be 5G enabled services.

Even their Human Agent in Whatsapp chat did said that it come with 5G.

Did anyone able to get 5G with their Maxis Connect Plan in their Apple Watches ?

Found a way to solve my issue.

Also found the reason why Watches cant connect with 5G, from what i had "researched" most the wearable are using "5G Reduction Capacity" or RedCap, which is something that our Telco need to launch it. From what i know, Maxis had discussing with DNB since 2023 to roll out the 5G Advance or 5.5G which come with 5G RedCap.

So until they roll it out, the Apple Watches would not have 5G accessibility for now.

Soon DNB will be privatize and Maxis and CelcomDigi will take control over we might need to wait more.

My ultra 3 just arrived, too bad I can’t bring it travel with me. Will setup immediately when I back to KL, now waiting Black Friday to place order for milanese loops.

Previously mentioned that I bought both the Natural Ti and Black Ti Ultra 3, in the end I kept the Black Ti. ☺️☺️

What swayed me over was the ‘low profile’ vibes and the ‘Black Metal Look’ feels very futuristic to me. Haha. 🤫

And for those concerned about scratches on the Black Ti, I have inadvertently and unintentionally grazed the watch a few times on aluminium door handles and railings, and the DLC Coating on the Watch Ultra remained immaculate, pristine and unscathed. It even low-key ‘destroyed’ the surface of the aluminium surfaces which it came in contact with. 🫢 I would say the coating on the Ultra 3 Black has indeed improved from the Ultra 2 Black (and yes, I’ve owned and used the Ultra 2 Black previously for about 6 months prior).

Also, due to the new 3D printing manufacturing of the Ultra 3 Titanium (Black and Natural), there is less chamfered edges near the bezel, so there is less chance of a scuff (compared to Ultra 1 and 2). If you see JerryRigEverything videos, most of the vulnerable parts of any coated/anodized metal body (like the iPhone 17 Pro series, are on the chamfered edges because the chamfered parts cannot be coated/anodized easily due to the law of physics).

Too bad CeX revised its trade-in price for the Ultra 2, otherwise I could consider getting one and will trade in my existing U2 to them.
The universe is telling me to wait until the next Ultra. biggrin.gif

Yes, I am only using third party straps for all my AW and original straps usually kept unused. laugh.gif Just look for straps that are for Ultra.

Best like how? Best experience? I guess so. Best deal? No. Yesterday, Lazada was selling RM 3144. smile.gif
