both ap and original is original nokia phone and accessories

original is made for malaysia.

ap made for other countries but imported in malaysia without tax, thats why some ap got weird languages or keypad.

the difference between them are the firmware with different language pack.(but u can flash malaysia's firmware into those ap phone)

so basically, it just the warranty, both ap and original may hv 1 year lcd warranty, but ap company usually cheapskate~ if theyr not they'll change to an original nokia lcd screen if u hv problems wit the lcd within the warranty. thts for lcd, but if ur phone got other unknown issue ap company usually will take longer time to repair ur phone.
