Iphone 4s at Malaysia

 
DEVICE popular issued from the Cupertino company, Apple is the iPhone 4s officially available in Malaysia since last Friday with three big names in the telecommunications industry launch of DiGi's homeland, Maxis and Celcom.

All three offer the device is officially held on the eve of the simultaneous and accurate market hours 12:01 midnight.

True, this time launching more attractive when it is done simultaneously and thousands of iPhone fans who came early and waited until more than seven hours just to be among the first to get the new model.
What's more, a day or two after its launch, Apple announced the iPhone 4s can be purchased directly online from the Apple Store and users only need to telecommunications companies to obtain an appropriate plan.

However, if you want a cheaper cost of ownership and faster for the iPhone 4s is gripped in the hand, the best way is to buy from telecommunications companies, together with a specific plan within their means and needs.


What is the difference offered by telecommunications companies plan?

QUESTIONS had raised many concerns among buyers for fear bound by a contract which it is not easy to understand from these three telecommunication companies when buying it. You know, his contract was not a month or two but up to 12 months or 24 months.

With such a long period, the user must make the best choices by selecting companies that are not only able to provide quality services but should also be able to provide better value or lower costs in the long run.

For those who live in urban areas may have fewer problems with quality of service, but for those in rural areas are not only quality but need full coverage.

Someone who bought a smart phone like the iPhone 4s would not only use it to make calls and short message / multimedia message service (SMS / MMS), but also use data services including Internet access, e-mail, social networking site and others.

That's all to think about before choosing the best service providers.

One blog, SoyaCincau.com showed differences between telecommunications companies (not including Celcom) is not about the quality of services in terms of ownership but to compare the packages offered in the form of easy reference.


DiGi's plan content, Maxis and Celcom

NOT all plans are the same. While all three offer the use of the package within their plan for a fixed amount, the bid and conditions of use can differ from one another.

It should be noted, iPhone 4s depends on the data for the full experience. Therefore, most of us as consumers will see data available when the first would read the company brochure.

Although the user can select the appropriate data plan with their application needs, they may need to know if there is a tendency to use the quota of available data on a monthly basis.

After looking at the brochures and information on their website, available DiGi and Celcom does not charge extra if you exceed the quota set, but the speed of moving up or down you can be reduced to a lower speed. Technically, if the default is to use the network speed third generation (3G) or High Speed ​​Packet Access (HSPA), after reaching the prescribed quota, it will decrease to a slower network technologies such as Data Rates Developed for GSM Evolution (EDGE ).

On the other hand, Maxis does not specify the scale of introducing policies to reduce speed but used the excess data will be charged at five cents per 10kb.

After the initial data are important to iPhone users, there are other aspects that need to be examined and studied to obtain the best plan such as the number of calls made, number of SMS or MMS services.

SMS and MMS to be important applications for consumers in Malaysia, although there are other instant messaging system through the installation of applications can be obtained from the Apps Store for the iPhone as App Whats.

In addition, you need to see a plan that allows you to use the iPhone 4s to contact a network of different individuals.

If you are the type of individuals who make many calls to Celcom, Celcom plan is a big advantage because they offer up to 6,000 minutes of calls that are incorporated in their network.


The total cost?

THERE is a big difference in the telecommunications package if you want to get the iPhone 4s.

Maxis and Celcom offers the usual method offers the iPhone 4s at subsidized prices while DiGi did not reveal significant differences in terms of price.

For DiGi contract, it is to subsidize the price of RM200 for the phone.

However, most of the actual subsidy into the plan involved.

If you are aware, iDiGi 88 is priced at RM55 per month (with the auto bill) but the values ​​said to be worth RM88.

Thus, in short, you pay less for your phone, but its price is included in the monthly subscription or pay more for the iPhone first 4s with a cheaper monthly fees for long-term.

For the 32GB iPhone 4s Maxis offered, it can be found in
iValue 4 free at the 24-month contract during the promotion period
until January 15, 2012. After that, the charge is RM350.


Another aspect to be considered

AS usual, comparisons made only subject to price and cost of ownership only for reference.

Before signing the purchase contract, you should also consider other aspects such as quality of network coverage, performance, customer service and sound different on each network.

But, it is difficult to compare because of different demographics depending on the area. Cost of ownership listed above are for reference only and is based on the assumption that you do not make calls, SMS, MMS and more than the prescribed data.

Blog SoyaCincau.com suggest that users review the monthly bills to determine the actual amount used per month.

From there, you need to estimate a more appropriate plan and predict how much you spend when exceeding the limit provided in the plan.

For aspects of advance payment, the DiGi is not set it apart from the price but the phone only to Maxis and Celcom, they require some initial payment will vary depending on the plan and option contracts.

it @ Metro finds the difference between Maxis and Celcom are the advances installment only five months, while Celcom over a period of 12 months.

If you want to purchase the iPhone without a contract 4s, the best option available is U Mobile telecommunications network with like postpaid plans such as U28, U58 and U88 with a package of voice and SMS are combined in one plan.

U28 is the cheapest option available with a capacity of 1GB of data and 200 +100 SMS at only RM28 per month.

The following is a higher plan U58 and U88 with 1GB of data plus an additional offer period and the number of calls between two different SMS affected plans.

Just as post-paid plans, U Mobile does not charge for additional use, but data speeds will be lower.
