Unboxing the new iPhone14 Pro Max Gold in Malaysia!

Malaysians were finally able to get their hands on the iPhone 14s last Friday (23rd September). Like many others, I pre-ordered my phone as soon as it became available and got it delivered to my home via same day delivery. 

To my delight, the iPhone 14 Pro Max in gold is ultra sexy and beautiful! Love the subtle gold colour against the metallic edges of the phone. Thanks Hubby for this early birthday present, will certainly put it to good use for all my food photography and shooting videos.

Here's a short video of me unboxing my new phone ♥

iPhone 6s Battery Life Issues

So last week I received a new iPhone 6s for my birthday.

I love the camera and how fast it is compared to my old iPhone 4s, but one thing which really irked me was the battery life.

For the first two days, I only got about 5 hours usage time and about 9 hours on standby. Not sure if this is considered normal, but I had higher expectations. One of the reasons why I was desperate to change to a new phone was because my previous phone's battery was draining too quickly for my liking and I had to carry a powerbank with me. The new iPhone 6s battery is draining too fast, in my opinion. (and yes I have turned off unnecessary apps or notifications to lessen the battery drain)

Another issue I had was that my new phone would only charge to 99% and it wouldn't charge any further. After consulting Google and Apple support pages, the solution is to the sleep/wake button and home button simultaneously while the phone is plugged in to the power. After a reboot, you should be able to charge your phone to 100%.

There is also a "Low Power Mode" function under "Battery" which temporary reduces power consumption. I have switched this on and am hoping to see an improvement in my battery life.

Anyway, I shall monitor it for a few more days to see if battery life improves before making further judgment. If any of you are facing similar problems to this, do drop me a comment below so that we discuss and share solutions.


Update (31/10/15) : After rebooting the phone, the battery life has improved immensely. I can get about 9 hours usage time, 21 hours standby now.
