THIS IS IT!!!! Apple is still breaking promises. First case was the slowing down of older iPhone that they were supposed to help the Apple users to replace battery, buy a replacement phone or wait for iOS 11.3. Instead, it's a "MEH" because Apple wants to keep delaying the huge matter.


Secondly, it's the iPhone X that has the poorest sale. Ming chi Ko promise that the iPhone X will sell 100-200 million by end of 2018, but that did not happened as it sold only 18million!!!! :)


Thirdly it's today incident in Malaysia that the store was forced to discontinue the sales of outdated iPhone by Apple themselves.


With more problem from big-bigger-biggest, Apple is likely to go for immediate bankruptcy in few years time.

        Hey guys, you think I might be able to get one of those?
        I just need to book my international flight first. I mean the line's probably stopped growing after 12,000 people, right?

You're right at some parts, younger one desperate for the loyalty. And there's still a people with retarded mind, which they believed iPhone was better than Android. Not being rude but when I asked some iPhone users about why they prefer iPhone than Androids, they'll give an weird reasons whilst supporting with nonsense evidence which shown their lack of knowledgement about phones.

                      Logically, they don't prepare 11000 stock for sales. How pathetic for spend the time for waiting.

If many smartphones look like iPhones and turns out they have android on them, its maybe because THE COMPANIES have a marketing strategy... NOT the os itself.

                            The idea of Android being some cheap iPhones is only a miss conception caused by several companies trying to make ideal smartphones for certain regions

                                      And also, i confidence that there are some of them that showed up just to buy in bulk and resell it for profit

                                      Well, the moment i saw the advertisement, i already expected it, even more when the fact the store is located in the capital city

                                        I am from malaysia and obviously these ppl didnt read the promotion. It is already mention only 50 units and most of them are display unit. thats why they are selling cheap and also it is few batch old already the iphone like iphone 6 or something.. they just queue up for the sake of queuing up..
