[obichacha]

Wa… how many times you visited Apple Store already..? You stay nearby ah..? Haha

You also bought, and returned, Duo recently right…?

Problem is don’t have stock available to collect on time.
I done 4 cancelled recently , until I bought from shopee

I exchanged my nano-texture unit for standard glass. Display is slightly crisper but no longer feels as smooth to touch or scroll.

Wah, you back and forth to Apple a few times liao.

 

[froztheart]

Nano can see slightly blur texture.
the SP results as nano, the black color background still remain as nano slightly grey but not like iPhone Duo.
Unlike standard glass is true black.
About nano with sp just like iPhone with SP.
Work great.

Nice, so fast setup with SIM already too!
Is it me or the edges are curved as compared to previous.

My office is nearby to the two Apple Stores. Yup i returned the Duo for the 18PM and mini combo instead.
Will definitely need to head down again to purchase the final confirmed config I want and return my current set.

Can la, work CBD is convenient to visit the 2 city Apple Stores!
Just wondering why you keep going back and forth when you had returned the Duo earlier and gotten your iPad Mini already.

Apple offered too many config selections for the mini. Fickle minded between display and connectivity options.

Which one you going for?

256gb is the right choice, unless you die die no install any game, mine after installed genshin impact left 130gb

Hmm I thought you already placed an order or got this on hand , since 11.11 Lazada shopee have big sales

 

[froztheart]

I'm contemplating whether to take Nano/Standard. But if whack will be Midnight @ 512GB.
Unfortunately, its only 2 colours this time, wondering will Apple suddenly drop more colours few months down the road.

No leh, I really resisiting since I got the Mini 7. If not whack early already!

 

[AngelRomeo]

Take Standard better.
OLED best is go for standard unless you keep on using under the sun then yes go for Nano.

I'm contemplating is cellular required since i have two iPhones to hotspot from and will need to pay additional monthly subscription should i choose to want cellular on the mini. If Apple has offered nano-texture to the highest storage options only like on the iPad Pro, i would have chosen standard glass option only.

Same here, thinking hard if cellular is reall needed. Shall unbox later and try if standard glass is sufficient.

Ya I took 256. I think minimally this is needed. 128GB, on the demo unit only left like 40GB. Put some shows full already.

Nano coating don’t have lighting reflections issue.
Anyway I am like this so much, no regret at all.
Yeah iPad Pro die die to get 1tb at least

Shall wait for your opinion. The pricing on the education store for cellular standard glass vs nano-texture is $70 difference whereas WiFi only standard glass vs nano-texture is $150 difference.
