Better Late Than Never: AppleCare+ and Malaysia’s First Official Apple Store at TRX

This post arrived late, but late is still better than never to override my post earlier which mentioned about the unavailble AppleCare+ in Malaysia. There was a time when Malaysia didn’t have an official Apple Store, and iPhone owners had to rely on Apple-certified local retailers for their insurance packages. I even wrote about this a few years ago, noting how AppleCare+ wasn’t available to us locally at the time. (You can check out that old post here: AppleCare not available in Malaysia. ) But things have changed, and it’s all for the better! The Apple Store has officially arrived at TRX (Tun Razak Exchange) in Kuala Lumpur, and with it comes the availability of AppleCare+ in Malaysia. You can now purchase it directly from Apple’s website: AppleCare+ Malaysia. Having the Apple Store finally open here last year was a long-awaited milestone for many of us, myself included. It’s exciting to see Apple’s presence growing in Malaysia—it’s about time, and it’s well worth the wait!

Blacklist this GT990+CPE C300/RS980+ 2021 Modified 4G LTE CPE Router Modem shopee seller v_teamrossi

Image
Ok, this is my first post about online sellers' wrongdoing and hope to help others. It's unfortunate when there is nobody who can help after the "review period" is over (you can't update with an accurate rating to the seller anymore if you've rated them full 5 stars). If any unfortunate event, a product go bad before the warranty end, the buyer deserves the warranty claim, but this is the time when the seller isn't approaching you properly or even not responding to your request because this can be a costly after-service, they have to spend time and extra stock to cover the unwanted loss. And this time, I took a risk to buy from a non-preferred shopee seller. This is my second bad experience with a non-preferred shopee seller. Please, just avoid this  v_teamrossi shopee seller. Especially this product:  MODIFIED BYPASS 👍🔥 GT990+CPE C300/RS980+ 2021 Modified 4G LTE CPE Router Modem Unlocked Unlimited Hotspot Wifi Tethering I showed the seller my problem i...

神田雪平锅 Kanji Stainless Steel Snow Pan - black dots appear at first-time use

Image
I've been a happy buyer for a few days receiving my purchase. The saucepan build quality feels sturdy, by the look of it, it looks lightweight but it has some good weight that reaffirm its built quality. Top to bottom view Suitable for CH & IH (induction cooker) First-time use, black dots appears First-time use, many black circles appears in the pan even I was just cooking non-heavily flavoured soup. The black dots, from what the seller explained, it feel acceptable to see the black dots appear the first time cooking with this saucepan. To me, the black dots have destroyed the elegant look of this saucepan. 😢 Experience of checking back with the seller I'm not sure if this is the defect of the product, but after contacted back with the seller. The seller sent me several images which they suggest that the pan is still safe for normal use and those black dots will disappear after several times of using it.  Besides, images also include steps to protect and take care of this ...

Comparing UV sterilised VS new baby milk bottle (plastic made) - NO! Don't UV sterilise your plastic bottle!

Image
After few month of constant UV sterilised my baby's bottle. Let's check out what changes it does to our bottle. I have a UV sterilliser at home to help me dry and store my baby's bottles - Haenim Classic UV Sterillizer I wasn't sure until I read the bottles manual, UV sterilising isn't a recommended way by MAM as it'll degrade the plastic bottle. Doesn't matter which brand you use, as long as you sterillise a plastic bottle, it'll degrade as you UV sterillise it. The more you do it the faster it degrades further. This is a very short article to compare between a 2 new and old milk bottles (bigger = new, smaller = old). See what has the UV sterilising has done to my bottle. UV degrade the plastic bottle, and it become yellowish and lost some of its overall elasticity on certain accessories.  Both were bought in same white colour. They both were bought in same white colour, but the smaller bottle at the right became very yellowish after underwent months of...

Panasonic water purifier - PJ-37MRF & filter (P-31MJRC)

Image
I've been using this water filter for nearly 5 years, and still using it without any problem. I'm still the kind of consumer who believe cooked water is the best type of drinking water. As I've been inform by many, cooked water retain nutrient that RO water filtration system doesn't. This simple water filter PJ-37MRF has been doing good job serving me for years. My experience with it is still pleasant, no need electricity, no messy setup, no issue replacing the catridge. My water supply frequently has strange chemical smell (I have no idea how to identify what material causing the smell) out from the tap water, this water filter has no problem removing the smell.  Early this year, water supply pipe burst at my neighbour house. Water pipe repair work has caused dirty water flew into my kitchen tap water. I took the chance to compare, and this time I witnessed the magic in person what's this PJ-37MRF does to my water. My kitchen sink has 2 water taps, one without any ...
