    Grrr it looks like it’s going to be a struggle reserving a unit! I wonder if they sell it to walk in customers even without reservations?

    Personally I kinda like the weight of the XR (coming from a iP7)... makes it feel sturdier and the bezels does not bother me that much. :)

    XR Looks really interesting, yesterday i was hunting for Smart/globe lock iphone xs max(was hoping i can save some $$) unfortunately yung nahanap ko na seller was so paasa we had already closed the deal and was on the way suddenly he cancelled. then i saw this thread cheapest iv'e seen at OLX was 48k looks like winner.

    Foldks just want to verify if planning to buy an iPhone at Greenhills as long as it's Singapore Unit it has local warranty right?

    *Update
    HK unit is 48k @Greenhills

    Generally, no local warranty for international iPhones. Something to keep in mind.

    One problem with buying iPhones in Japan would be the face that you cannot turn off the camera shutter sound. Could be a problem in silent spaces, private events, meetings, etc. :ROFLMAO:

    Mm....Japan has CDMA iPhones (you don’t want that) and LTE iPhone (will work here). For the Xr, the Japan LTE model is A2106. That’s the one you want.

    Check it out:

    This is a good watch from Jonathan Morisson he did a blind test for the screen of XR versus pocofone f1 and the results are astounding.

    Wow. Such a total demolition of the "it's not a 1080p screen" whining that a lot of people have against the XR. Thanks for sharing.

    Mm...I would be interested in a blind testing of the Xr and Xs. Just how close is the Xr?

    Re: a/b..... what would you expect from a copycat, 2nd rate Pocoloco phone?
    :p:ROFLMAO:

    No sane iPhone owner (or one who can afford an iPhone) will ever buy and downgrade to a Pocoloco phone.

    It’s fun to watch them (budget Android phone fans, especially) say “our $300 phone has a better display with 1080p resolution than that $750 overpriced iShit!!” and eventually turn salty after shown that video, screaming “pitting a $300 budget phone against a $750 one is totally unfair!!!” :ROFLMAO:

    I'm honestly surprised with the attention the Pocophone is getting... It reminds me of the OnePlus One...

    For me its either iPhone - S/Note - Pixel...

    Mmm...exactly. Mercedes, Volvo or BMW. Not Mercedes, Volvo, BMW or Mahindra. Masyadong nakaka menos. All 4 can take you from point a to point b but which would you rather drive?
