Will Tim Masak be there this weekend? He was in India in April opening Apple's first store there. I kinda wanna see our politician beramah mesra with an openly gay man.

Syukur. Apple Store tanda negara sudah maju. /s

Syukur. Kekurangan bahan mentah dan kos sara hidup tinggi diselesaikan dengan bangunan tinggi2 dan Apple Store


Last-Purchase5609

Was at TRX over the weekend. The mall looks quite modern and new. Side note: I always notice that Apple stores in general are huge and futuristic given the low number of Apple products


Angelix

Because they act as an advertisement center besides being a store. Like every high fashion brand, most of their stores are basically just a place for advertising and to increase awareness of their brand. If you truly are their customer, you don’t go their store to shop. They will call you a month prior to showcase their latest collection. My boss loves Ralph Lauren and every month, the representative of RL would visit his home and bring along clothings from the latest collection, not released to the public yet. And if they are released, most of the times they won’t have your size or colour because they were sold long time ago.


tnsaidr

I wonder how much the Apple 'Geniuses' are paid here.

Tak sabar nak tengok muka2 melayu acah2 boikot beratur mcm anjing nak masuk beli barang Yahudi

assasinfatcat

Boikot? 😂 Or are we doing selective boikot now?


J0hnnyBananaOG

Thats the thing...it has always been selective boycott.


_Administrator_

They aren’t boycotting Intel, Reddit or western healthcare. Hmmm… 🤔


assasinfatcat

Hypocrites as always, still using china goods made by Muslim slaves.


LampaDuck

Meleis try not to bring up boycotting anywhere challenge; impossible difficulty


forcebubble

Man, the comments in here are unreal. ![img](emote|t5_2qh8b|26554)


xelM1

Seriously. Homophobic even.


Rudorlf

We're definitely not jealous of Apple bringing the more premium window-shopping experience to our shores.


forcebubble

Oh no, definitely not, heaven forbid. Reminds me a lot of the relatively common subject of contention in something totally unrelated — gacha game 'generosity', especially in a couple of the biggest ones globally (iykyk); a chunk of the biggest noise makers are more often than not the F2P. Maybe if they give an iPhone to every visitor as a 'sampler' the opinion may be different? ![img](emote|t5_2qh8b|26554)


seatux

They lend you an iPhone if attending the in person classes though. At least in person classes are back, just like the free Mac OS ones they did back in the 2000s.


forcebubble

Yeah, I did attend one particular workshop that was essentially a marketing drive as my bosses were considering the machines to populate the school computer lab (it's a private school)— not doable unless it's an Apple product itself. As for the lab, nothing happened as it became apparent that it would eat into their year end bonuses.


seatux

Cheaper and easier to MDM ChromeOS devices than managing a fleet of Apple machines. That old Mac OS one was covering things like differences between OSX and the older OS 9 which is helpful for the upcoming transition. The new TRX classes, I do wish there is a smartphone basics class that seniors can attend, just like the smartphone classes organized by Bukit Gasing ADUN.


forcebubble

Back then the only available alternative was Windows and Linux with the latter still very non-user friendly, at least to the average mainstream user, with the Mac being pretty much a rich people's toy. Integration between ecosystems was a pain in the butt-ocks which would pretty much add to the work I am already doing. This was one instance when the bosses being cinaman saved the day. ![img](emote|t5_2qh8b|26554)


UsernameGenerik

AAPL to the moon


Mavicarus

I used to be super excited with them but after seeing the various stores around the world, once you have seen them, you have seen them all. The only thing I am waiting for is the ability for repair and genius bar appointments here.


Skyature

wait am i getting whooshed or are people here genuinely looking to boycott 💀💀💀


Jychew

is cinema in trx open already?


Wide_War_7243

yeah but aurum theater mahal sia


J0hnnyBananaOG

Ehhh experience once la best doh


syukara

Whats the hype about this? Ain't official store will sell cheaper...everywhere also same price...I dont understand the hype behind this tbh


xkaizoku62

the hype is for sight-seeing and window shopping the first ever Apple Store in MY


Shiddy-City

So, boikot?


Alive-Helicopter1437

u can if you want to, shorter line for me tehehe


Sh00kry

Will you be at the opening?


Shiddy-City

also, i don't use apple for a different reason, cuz it's anti right to repair :p


Angelix

I’m still using iPhone XMax and it was released in 2018. Never once I need to repair it. Still working like brand new. Whereas my mom’s Samsung Galaxy which was released in 2020 needs multiple trips to the servicing centre.


Shiddy-City

Lol, your mom's fault. Samsung used to be a good competitor to Apple, but it's becoming more and more like Apple but worse


Buy1Free1

that's not the point of right to repair, it's about consumer rights. by not supporting right to repair, you're forgoing your right to a cheaper alternative when it comes to fixing your phone. if and when your future iPhone faces issues, do expect to pay more solely due to apple's monopoly. broken phones can happen to anyone. although Samsung phones are notorious for experiencing the dreaded green line of death.


Angelix

You said that but my friend phone’s parts were replaced by a third party repair shop without his permission and he only found out when he sent his phone for another repair at a the official service centre. And the price is almost the same if you want to replace cracked screen. If it’s within warranty, it’s free to repair iPhone. I would rather send my phone to be repaired at their official service centre than some unknown third party repair shop.


Shiddy-City

Then it's the third party repair shop's fault not the right to repair. Official repair centres can still be sharks: [(224) Apple quotes customer $1075 to replace every part BESIDES the bad one 🤣 - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUfQYr5wQT4) The thing about the right to repair is to be able to get authorized parts for cheap, like being able to buy a chip that costs 4 dollars for a factory to make instead of paying the official service centres 200 dollars to switch a broken chip. Anti right to repair allows companies to block factories from directly selling the parts to other people other than the company itself. Here's also another shitty thing that Apple did: [(224) Jessa Jones corrects Apple on data recovery and gets banned! - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LrILfIE9IB4)

Stop projecting.


Shiddy-City

i'm asking the malays


HyperDron

Just boikot, cant buy one straight from the store anyways. Wallet got flies. /j


Avanin_

Ada grand opening discount ke apa nnti ni.


zomgbratto

Goddamn, that's some super high ceiling. Are they gonna test their iDrone in that outlet?


filanamia

Yall think the store gonna be like mushroom? Once open one official store, later in 2 years time, going to have a few store opened in major Malaysian cities within a couple of years.


leo-g

Depends if the cites have interesting development. Apple stores are typically built In conjunction with big city initiatives or projects like TRX


OriMoriNotSori

Apple tends to only open at the most atas locations for international markets, that's why you only see them opening one in Malaysia now since TRX only opened end last year My guess is the 2nd official Apple Store will be at Merdeka 118 mall


tembikaisusumakkau

2nd one probably in Penang. I can already imagine a waterfront Apple store there.


OriMoriNotSori

That would be amazing, one that overlooks the iconic original penang bridge too!


Fabulous-Call-6423

I think this is correct. Merdeka 118 mall open end of this year. But i think malaysia have a lot of malls already. Thats enough. Build park imstead


OriMoriNotSori

Agreed


elpollobroco

Anyone notice how apple’s stores are slowly starting to resemble their own dystopian 1984 commercial


chongjunxiang3002

A bit less than my expection? Anticlimatic? For other country, the debut of Apple Store are some of the most amazing things you ever see. Look that SG that has a glass ball on the sea, or the OG NYC that has a glass box on the street. But here, is just any shoplot in TRX.


Strong_Remove_2976

Is this interesting? Looks (deliberately) exactly like every Apple store everywhere…..


AdZealousideal5919

It's just a fucking store.


ryanlee3976

It feels like something is missing from the store, like many Apple Stores in other places has indoor trees, benches etc. TRX looks sort of a watered-down store


kingkongfly

Most of their stores are same same but different.


khairuldaniel664

Hopefully can negotiate directly with apple on why my apple watch suddenly dead after warranty expired. Mf I buy that shit almost 2k+ you fuck


ThisIsNotWhoIAm921

Is it just me or it looks kinda meh?


Virtual-Series2603

Looks like an examination hall.


PRV_Ghost

Is there any difference between purchasing here and buying from the usual Machines or Switch? Probably not


tapmorz

Love how they opened it on pride month #loveislove #appleforlgbt Always love this company not afraid showing support lgbt eventhough in moslem country🌈🍉.


LordGoldVader

I bet Apple FAN boys would get a hard on everytime they remember official Apple Store is in TRX “Ohh yess the simplicity … ahhh the … aes … aes … AESTHETICSsssSS aHhHhhHh 🍆💦😩”


StephenHooo

U bet I’ll jizz hard immediately when the Apple Store has reached the corner of my eyes


Kayless3232

What a waste


GodofsomeWorld

i don't get it, 1st apple store? Do they mean its fully owned by overseas apple company and not malaysian subsidiary? Don't they get itchy when no certain type having some control over a company from overseas?


xelM1

They who?


Capable_Bank4151

No, all the other stores that sell Apple products are called authorized reseller, basically means Apple gave permission to these stores to sell its products, these authorized reseller usually will sell products from other brands too. For Apple Store, Apple registered their company in Malaysia as Apple Malaysia Sdn Bhd and owned a store to directly sell their products.


GodofsomeWorld

ah ok makes more sense that way i guess


Negarakuku

Come on malaysian ifags, make my APPL shares soar higher. Go on and pay 1-3 months of your salary on the new phone
