No surprise here, Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max Clear Case retails for the same price as previous years at S$75. If you are on Apple’s Employee Purchase Plan (EPP), you can get it for S$68.04, a 9% discount.
Shipping is also fast. I ordered on the announcement date, 13th September 2023, and I got it via DHL the next day, 14th September 2023.
Apple Lightning to 3.5mm Audio Cable has only one length which is 1.2m and is available in two colors, Black and White. It retails for S$49. For some reason, Amazon.sg is selling the black one for only S$40. So I decided to get that.
But you can get it at S$37 at Apple Authorised Resellers on Lazada, Shopee, and Amazon.sg. That is what I tried to do, except that it is out of stock on all the above mention platforms.
Because it is 10/10, they are giving 10% cashback in the form of coins, capped at $35 or 3,500 coins. So I got S$31.90 (3,190 coins) in cashback for my next purchase. Shipping is an additional S$1.49.
Apple MagSafe Battery Pack retails for S$139. It provides your iPhone between 40% and 70% additional charge. 40% if you are on the iPhone 12/13 Pro Max and 70% on the iPhone 12/13 mini.
Inside the battery pack is a 7.62V, 11.13Wh battery. Hence the capacity is about 1,460 mAh.
The last personal laptop that I have was in 2008, the Apple 15.4″ MacBook Pro 2.53GHz (Late 2008). I used it during my university days. Since graduating in 2010, I have used my work laptop most of the time.
When this MacBook Pro started to spoil parts by parts in 2016, I threw it away and switched to Li Xiang’s hand-me-down Apple 13″ MacBook Pro Retina (Early 2015), and I have been using it since then.
If you are on the non-cellular Apple Watch Series 3, you will run into problems upgrading WatchOS because there is only 4GB of storage. Luckily, I am on cellular, and it comes with 8GB of storage, so I do not have this problem.
