As the end of 2024 comes to a close, quite a number of top trending smartphones have been announced and released for Malaysia. As such, we've come out with our Top 10 trending smartphones for 2024.

Read on to see for yourself what the top devices that TechNavers like yourself have been searching for or are looking to buy soon this year.

If you are considering using or already using a generic USB-C charger for your Apple iPhone, this news might change your mind. Recently, an unlucky Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max user found the USB-C port melted a generic USB-C cable. That said, what should you know about it?

After teasing the plan previously, Yes 5G today finally launched its Apple smartphones plan, officially becoming the tech giant’s telco partner in our country. In fact, Yes 5G is offering by far the lowest monthly instalment plans for the iPhone 15 series, as low as RM21/month.

Have you ever wondered how much it costs for a smartphone manufacturer to produce one unit of the device? Well, a recent teardown of the Apple iPhone 15 series seeks to answer that question, revealing some interesting findings in the process.

Apple has finally addressed the iPhone 15 series' overheating issues, promising that the problem will be fixed in an upcoming update. In a press release, the tech giant said it has identified the cause of the issue, which it claims to be software-related.

Finally, after finally implementing a higher resolution 48MP camera sensor with up to 5x zoom, the Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max has managed to break into the DXOMARK Top 3 smartphone camera rankings. Already the undisputed king for smartphone video recording despite no 8K video recording, the iPhone 15 Pro Max now takes the #2 spot below the Huawei P60 Pro.

One of the major upgrades of the iPhone 15 series is the change from Lightning to USB-C, though the EU’s new law may have forced Apple’s hands on the matter. However, despite Android and iOS devices now using the same port, recent reports from China claim that users are discouraged from using Android cables to charge their iPhone 15 series smartphones.

While most Malaysian telcos already announced pre-order details for the Apple iPhone 15 series, Yes 5G is taking its time, only teasing about its offerings today. Saying that ‘greater things come to those who wait’, the telco certainly has the most eye-catching deals for the latest iPhones so far, starting at just RM21/month.

The Apple iPhone 15 series features various improvements from previous models, both in terms of hardware and software. Recently, it was also revealed that the latest iPhone models have more settings in regard to safeguarding battery health, including limiting charging to only up to 80 per cent and the ability to check battery cycle count.

When Apple announced the Apple iPhone 15, a lot of Apple enthusiasts were looking forward to upgrading from their current iPhone. That includes iPhone 14 users too. That said, my old iPhone just happens to break after 3 years of use. Looking at the new device, it does look tempting, but is the upgrade worth the price? This is what I think about the phone, and if I should get it.
