A white & gold 64gb will do nicely thank you Don't use 3D Touch on my 6S+ as it stands. Just wish it was closer to $499 than the actual €599 here .. damn those taxes.

Keep in mind that $499 does NOT include taxes in the U.S.

But, i would buy a new iPhone only outside of Europe, like Hong Kong or Singapore, even cheaper there than in the states*.

*Cheaper in HK, a bit more in Singapore.

But it is easier to get more extensive warranty than what Apple offers when you buy it in Europe. The higher price isn’t for naught.

 

[coolfactor]

$794 in Canada, including the 12% tax. Not an easy-to-swallow pill by any means.

All that free stuff up there costs money.

I have a question which I'm hoping someone can answer. I am from the UK but currently live in Thailand. I will be visiting Singapore early next month and I would like to purchase the iPhone SE. Can I pay for it online through Apple's website to collect there? Or will the fact I have a British credit card not allow me to do it? Does Apple accept PayPal? Does Singapore have Apple stores where you can buy products or just an online store? Thanks.

Do the orders start at midnight local time?

Just buy using your CC once you are in Singapore and yes they have Apple stores there.

Remember to claim your GST refund as well at the airport

AFAIK no sales tax.

That's what I always do, but you won't get a full refund, but it is still worth it since it takes mere minutes.

 

[Anggak]

a bit OOT here, but i hope apple do the same thing with mac pro lineup~

5s → 6/6s/ → SE (old small form factor, powerful hardware): small → big → small again~
MP 4.1/5.1 → 6.1 → MP SE? (old tower enclosure, newer xeon E5, dual cpu is back) : big → small → big again~


for 7.1 maybe still keep cylinder shape, it’s okay but the SE takes the tower shape (unlikely happened)
just my personal moron wish ♪

 

[nicho]

AFAIK no sales tax..

I mean in the us. Because the numbers I posted aren't cheaper.

Not this time but I know Hong Kong prices where better in the past than in the U.S.

Perhaps they're jacking up prices to take advantage of the Chinese grey market
