News & Reviews:   Apple iPhone X

From our last rumoured post about the next iPhone generation this year, there wasn't really much information about the tech-specs aside from the panel size. However, our favourite KGI Securities analyst, Ming-Chi Kuo has shared some information, especially on the 6.1-inch iPhone.

Once again, our favourite rumour source news from KGI Securities has some new information on Apple's next iPhone. One might think that the iPhone X is just a one-time thing since it was released as the 10th Anniversary iPhone last year, but it seems that Apple has decided to manufacture a new variant and bigger this time. Some of you already know about the company releasing three iPhone variants, but not a lot of known about the tech-specs. Well, that's what this post is going to be about, more or less.

Are you ready for another rumour train from Apple? Last year, we were betting on the iPhone SE 2017 model but alas, it never happened and was quickly shot down during Apple's annual WWDC event. However, thanks to new sources, new rumours are suggesting that there will be a new iPhone SE again this year, according to the Taiwanese market research firm TrendForce.

Hey TechNavers, our comparison battles have been long overdue but we are back and do we have a treat for you. Obviously, you're here to see what we have to say about the Apple iPhone X and we are pitting it against the Huawei Mate 10 Pro. Who comes up on top? Without further ado, check out the 10 aspects below on which flagship is the better one.

Mhmm...the Apple iPhone X. So glorious, so beautiful, so elite and so expensive. At its most affordable price, you will have to fork out at least RM5k and no, they don't accept cutout limbs or human livers. If only there is one way of getting it without burdening your bank account. This is where Celcom comes in with its EasyPhone™ plan and it can be yours from only RM138 per month.

Generally, if you bought an Apple iPhone X in Malaysia, your friends and family would automatically think you're crazy to spend that much on a smartphone. However, one lucky couple got a really nice reward for buying one from Digi, which resulted in the company sponsoring them to an all-expense paid gastronomic extravaganza of the best fine dining cuisine in Asia.

Celcom Axiata Berhad officially launched the Apple iPhone X today after customers queued up at their Sunway Pyramid Blue Cube store since Monday, allowing the first in line and the first pre-order customers to buy the 64GB iPhone X for just RM10. Other Celcom postpaid and prepaid customers can get the iPhone X via the EasyPhone, zero interest 24 month instalment programme.

U Mobile recently announced that they will be offering the Apple iPhone X (along with the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus) from RM3465. The iPhone X will be available with the Postpaid i90 and i30 plans over 24 month contracts and you can pay for it using U Mobile's microCredit or UPackage installment plans. In addition, those who sign up between 24 November 2017 and 26 November 2017 will also receive a Mac City voucher worth RM200. Check out the U Mobile site for more details.

The pre-order of the Apple iPhone X has officially started today and will officially launch in Malaysia on 24 November 2017. You know who else is excited about it? The big four local telco - Maxis, Celcom, Digi and U Mobile, of course. Everything you need to know is right here so here's what we know about what they are planning so far. Check it out below for your reference and comparison.

Is Apple's Face ID biometric security system is as safe as they claimed? This question has been thrown around for about two months now when Craig Federighi, Apple senior vice president, failed the Face ID demo during the Apple event on his first attempt. This has led to a 50-50 impression on the technology, as some still preferred the fingerprint scanner method, and out of nowhere, a cybersecurity firm, Bkav claimed that the Face ID is a flawed security measure and even released a video to prove it.
