News & Reviews:   iPhone 13 Malaysia pre-order

As per tradition, older iPhone models will become cheaper whenever a new iPhone series is announced. However, that's not really the case for the Malaysian market. Due to inflation, the iPhone SE (3rd Gen) apparently got more expensive whereas the iPhone 13 series and iPhone 12 prices only dropped a bit.

Starting from 8 October 2021 onwards, the Apple iPhone 13 series will be officially launched in Malaysia. If you haven't got yourself a unit yet, don't worry - there are plenty of retail stores offering them. Among these stores is none other than TMT by Thunder Match.

So what promotion are they holding? Plenty of them! In fact, those who managed to pre-order early are entitled to a special Thunder Premium Gift Box limited edition. The gift box includes Thunder Exclusive Vouchers worth RM400 as well as exclusive face masks and a sanitiser. Aside from that, those who purchase the latest iPad and iPad mini from TMT by Thunder Match will also get a special PwP promotion (more details at the bottom).

It's that time of the year again for Apple, the iPhone 13 series pre-order has begun now starting today (1 October). For a short period of time, the pre-order campaign will end on 7 October because the official launch will begin the day after. So are you going to miss out? Well, that depends on what Celcom, Digi, Maxis and U Mobile are offering so check them out below!

Today, Apple kicked off the annual Apple Event with some new products but the iPhone 13 series is the major highlight here. As expected, there are the iPhone 13 mini, iPhone 13, iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max. So what's new? Well, sit back and let us tell you all about it.

As most Apple fans already know, the company will have an event coming real soon this 14 September (or 15 September in our time zone) showcasing the latest Apple products. Annually, there would be a new iPhone generation and Malaysia may be one of the first few countries to get it.

By now, most of you Apple fans already know about the upcoming Apple Event past midnight. Scheduled for 15 September 2021 at 1 AM in Malaysia time, we are expecting to see a new generation of the iPhone 13 series, Apple Watch Series 7 as well as the AirPods 3.

Apple devices generally don't need very large batteries, thanks to how optimised iOS can be. For instance, the iPhone 12 Pro Max only comes with a 3687mAh battery. But high refresh rate screens use more power, which could be why Apple will upgrade.

There are still a few more months to go until Apple unveils the next iPhone 13 models, but rumours are already floating around here and there. While it's commonly known that Apple won't chase the current phone trends such as high refresh rates, that might change for the upcoming iPhones this year.

Is it the iPhone 13 or iPhone 12s? Some say Apple will skip the number 13, but no one knows for sure yet. Regardless, rumours continue to use either name interchangeably. One rumour claims that all four models will have an upgraded ultrawide camera.

Ever since Apple introduced the MagSafe accessory to the iPhone 12 series, there were some speculations that the next generation of iPhone 13 series could go completely portless or just going in the direction of full wireless charging. Well, phone leaker, Jon Prosser brought up the topic again in his YouTube channel that one of the iPhone 13 models could be portless.
