Official pricing of iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus in Malaysia



The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus have been in the Malaysia market for some time, made available by grey importers and enterprising retailers. But they are priced at a premium.

Official launching for Malaysia is 6 November 2014, a date that commensurate with the 6th iteration of the smartphone.

The major differences between the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus are the display size, the battery life and the camera's optical image stabilisation. The rest of the comparison is as follows:

UPDATED. Scroll down.

The online grey importers' pricing are not that bad. These were from Lazada and Groupon


If you haven't yet figured out how much would a no-contract iPhone 6 pr iPhone 6 Plus cost you, here are the list of prices for US market together with the prices for our closer neighbour, Singapore.

Unlocked phone prices in the US:

iPhone 6 (16GB): $649 - approx. RM2,115
iPhone 6 (64GB): $749 - approx. RM2,440
iPhone 6 (128GB): $849 - approx. RM2,767

iPhone 6 Plus (16GB): $749 - approx. RM2,440
iPhone 6 Plus (64GB): $849 - approx. RM2,767
iPhone 6 Plus (128GB): $949 - approx. RM3,092

Needless to say, these prices put the new iPhones among the most expensive smartphones on the market.


Unlocked phone prices in Singapore (inclusive of GST):

iPhone 6 prices in Malaysia

Extrapolating the US prices, taking into account previous pricing for Malaysia market,  and making approximation of the Singapore conversion, the following gives you the estimated prices for Malaysia market:

iPhone 6 (16GB): RM2,499
iPhone 6 (64GB): RM2,899
iPhone 6 (128GB): RM3,299

iPhone 6 Plus (16GB): RM2,899
iPhone 6 Plus (64GB): RM3,299
iPhone 6 Plus (128GB): RM3,699

With the iPhone going into the 5-inch display territory, we can expect the Cupertino based phone maker to regain some lost ground here. I was hoping the iPhone 5S came with at least 4.7" display; it never did.
