not bad actually, its newer. i bought my i7500 2 months ago for 800 bucks . and limjonyee is quite rite though., samsung tend to be very reluctant to release updates to os. which is why i voided my warranty by installing a custom rom. im now using froyo. battery life is MUCH MUCH better. camera is more stable. and since im running custom rom. can overclock the processor. biggrin.gif hardware wise, its a good spec. just like the galaxy 5, for the price, u get quite a good piece of hardware. biggrin.gif

spec comparison for wildfire and galaxy 5.
basically wildfire has more ram and rom, the default 5 mp camera. but wildfires cpu is 528mhz. but this cpu can be overclocked to up to 700mhz.

yup u kena slaughtered. rrp is 699. 650 memang can get from 3rd party.


Added on September 5, 2010, 9:00 pmhonestly i dun see what's wrong with buying from 3rd party sellers from digital mall. even if they do run, samsung will always be around anyway. same goes wid nokia and etc etc etc.

sometimes 3rd party sellers are more efficient and polite than the farked up salespeople at ori stores. especially the sohems that are at the nokia store in the curve shopping mall.

Bring the brochure, they have a raya brochure by samsung, bring it to the shop and ask why is it different. and if they don't refund, u will make a complaint. I think that's all u can do. Either that or just return the set and ask for cash back.

Seriously, it's already in their brochure, i got 1 from samsung shop, and 1 from senQ, both same booklet.

double confirmed RRP is RM 699 by samsung. i got hold of the guy in charge of pricing just now and that's the price it is.

unfortunately the only thing u can do now, is go back to the shop and bising. not much you can do cause of the principles of "willing buyer willing seller". i doubt u'll see your money back but still no harm trying.

hard lesson learned indeed. buy from authorised shops. that way when u've overpaid for something u can complain directly to samsung or consumer association which i doubt will ever happen if its from authorised dealers.

again, i am truly sorry for your loss but thank you for the awareness. all of us will remember the name of the shop u went to. at least u did the community a good service.

Samsung should do something about such a dealer though, spoiling the brand's image.
