I bought this last night out of impulse to replace my Huawei Mate 20 pro that I have been using for the past 5 years. I just realised from Xiaomi official flagship shop in TaoBao that the China set is selling at much lower price at 6999 rmb (about 1300SGD) for 16GB +512GB spec. I had the wrong impression that SG set would always be cheaper based on my past purchase for Huawei MateXS and Mate X3. Anyway, since I have bought it then so be it. Plus, SG set has local warranty.

I wanted to buy a Xiaomi Buds4 Pro from SG Official Store and realised there are no more stocks. I am also looking at buying Xiaomi Watch S3 which is available in SG but is cheaper in China. As I am travelling to China next week, I am planning to buy buds4 Pro and S3 in China. I presume there would be no issues pairing the buds4 Pro as they both use Hyper OS. May I know whether would there be any issues in using NFC payment via MasterCard in SG for S3 bought in China?

FYI, Xiaomi Watch S3 not running on wearOS and doubt NFC payment here.

For info, Msia is selling Xiaomi 14 Ultra (16GB + 512GB) at RM 5199 (SST included). It comes with 6 months Google Cloud storage, 1+1 year extended warranty and 1 free screen replacement within 6 months. I guess we are paying extra for the wireless charger and 3 months youtube premium service. KL Midvalley Mall outlet still has the photography free gift.

Ok, my first lens I ordered arrived. A magnetic cpl + cover

Now really looks like a camera, haha.

The polarizer effect a bit weak though, didn't really cut out much reflections. Just makes things a bit darker, which can be compensated by exposure. Maybe some more experienced bros here can advise.

No cpl

why not using the original leica lens cover?

CPL is meant to reduce reflections and a deeper/richer colour. Hence u can see the bottle's reflection on the right side facing the window had been reduced. CPL should not be used in all conditions. mostly for skies and reflections (windows, glass, water etc)

Not a pro...just something i picked up while using a CPL.

I got the same issue during my first set up.
So I <Reset this app> in singpass
<Clear data> & <Uninstall> singpass app
Go play store download singpass app
It worked for me on the second set up.
I am still having Singpass issue. Error code 83-T991 despite following these steps. Anyone managed to resolved it yet?

To scan face to set up sing pass, one of the requirement is natural light. That's for the 1st time setup. Subsequently use finger print to log in already.

Received another case yesterday. Also those china cheap cases but with a honeycomb pattern. This has been my Go To case for less mainstream phones with not many accessories available. Looks nice though.
