if it's around rm900, then it's worthy to get it since it also got multi touch..
the only downside, no flash support.

Galaxy Ace rm960 cannot play Flash, or Acer Liquid MT rm1200 can play Flash. Which is better. Difference rm240. So hard to choose. lolz

Am thinking really hard to get Ace or Optimus One.

This is going to be my first Android. I was actually quite set upon getting Optimus a few days ago.. until yesterday I read about Galaxy Ace. Now I'm torn between two choices. I been reading reviews that Ace ram is only 2xx and has a bad battery life. Is that true? Gsmarena doesnt specify the ram there.. and some comments on reviews say that the internal memory is too small to install apps..
please advice smile.gif

If choice i prefer sam ace as the design look better to me. The screen also same size as iphone 4. I have play around with it at mid valley today. My friend shop selling there. The touch is very smooth also. Dont feel lagging.

Many are torn between the O1 and the SGA (I'll call them that for short k? tongue.gif)

Internal memory should not be much of an issue when its Froyo, not to mention app2sd when someone gets that supported for this.

The worry here is the RAM, you'll have to trade the sacrifice of RAM for a bigger screen, Touchwiz 3.0, and IMHO much better looks. 256 isn't great, but sufficient for general use.

Ahh, I agree with you about the better looks. However, I'm not a very heavy user, just mainly use for calls and texts. I used task manager alot on the desktop to kill my unused tasks, so I guess I'd do the same with the phone heh. That will help the RAM prob right?

Emailed Samsung to ask for the official launch date and retail price, and was answered this:

Please be inform that, there is no official date yet when the said model will launch in Malaysia. For up to date information, kindly refer to the website at www.samsungmobile.com.my.

Does this mean the units selling at stores now are AP sets?

Checked abit at other forums, apparently it seems to be at 384MB RAM according to early users there. It's not official, but seeing that the phone displays 287MB, its most likely it has 384MB RAM like the HTC Legend.

Siao lah! Why not just continue using Optimus? Not so much difference between these 2 phones. If Desire HD then a lot of difference lah... but if you have so much money, go ahead...

Ok guys, some review on Ace. I can't be 100% precise as for pictures i'll try to upload later if i have the time.

1st) OP1 is quite sluggish IMO, not too sure for what reason but ACE is smoother compare to it.
*would have to install more apps and see how ACE performs. As far as i know, better spec does not mean it could perform better, we need to see the UI which is being used and for this case 2 thumbs up to Samsung.
*It's really smoother compare to my previous Milestone (ram capacity of 258mb vs 278mb as stated in the phone status (ACE))

2nd) Screen Resolution Display;
*Well it's slightly lacking compared to IP4 but hey, the phone is 60% cheaper compared to IP4.
*The icons words, widgets are all crystal clear to me. Surprisingly the 3.5" screen display looks much more awesome compared to the 3.7" display on my previous milestone. Seems like it isn't that bad to copy the display size of an IP. Steve Job had really put some thoughts on this i guess.

3rd) Camera. . .
*Wow i love it. Despite Milestone is having the same camera resolution... trust me on this. It is no where near to ACE. The 5 mp on ACE can do wonders and it's totally worth it for a phone with such a price tag.

4th) Build Quality...
*Nothing much to shout about pretty much similar to Samsung Galaxy S but with a cooler back COVER! Matt Black and White is just awesome!

*Anyone got any idea whether this phone is having a Gorilla Glassor scratchless surface?

Overall if you are talking about spec itself compared to the best phone out there.. maybe it's 3/5 but if we are talking about price/performance...
I would definitely give it a 5/5.

Now there is even more reason for us to go for the phone! At this particular moment i don't think there is any phone which can perform as good as ACE below the price tag of RM1k.

Wow, this is the deciding review for us on the fence. Anyway - is the warranty by Samsung? Is it original set or AP set? You know, the phone hasn't officially been launched here...

Nice... kena poison kau kau d...

I am just wondering if 278MB RAM is size of availability rather than overall size.

My Garmin Asus A10 have 512MB of RAM but even after fresh install, the availability amount is about 270MB.

Emailed Samsung to ask for the official launch date and retail price, and was answered this:

Please be inform that, there is no official date yet when the said model will launch in Malaysia. For up to date information, kindly refer to the website at www.samsungmobile.com.my.

Does this mean the units selling at stores now are AP sets?

Downside of no flash is unable to see Flash Player-required stuff in websites, like facebook games for example.

plz dont buy ace..
i wz also planning..
bt aftr lots of research i can say dat this vl nevr get 2.3update..
bcoz samsung has a good habbit of launching a new fone rather providing updates on current fones in market..
they didn't provide foryo update for galaxy 3 n 5..
also wave 2 is there wid new bada os..no updates for older wave..
so if v buy this fone..v vl b happy now..
bt after 6months they will launch some new fone wid gingerbread..
n i cant afford buying new fones every 6-7months..
choice is urs..
Source(s):
optimus one is way better..
is getting gingerbread update soon..n also 2million units have already been sold..
or nokia c6-01 smile.gif

Check the comparison picture I posted in the front page, the Ace is a wee-bit shorter in screen size yet a wee-bit wider. I don't think the SP would fit nicely, not to mention iphone 4 SPs usually cover the top and bottom sections too. sad.gif

Warranty by SME, meant every Samsung center is able to claim the warranty if anything happened to the phone?

Just in case biggrin.gif

Ok guys, some review on Ace. I can't be 100% precise as for pictures i'll try to upload later if i have the time.

1st) OP1 is quite sluggish IMO, not too sure for what reason but ACE is smoother compare to it.
*would have to install more apps and see how ACE performs. As far as i know, better spec does not mean it could perform better, we need to see the UI which is being used and for this case 2 thumbs up to Samsung.
*It's really smoother compare to my previous Milestone (ram capacity of 258mb vs 278mb as stated in the phone status (ACE))
....


how if i sell iphone 3G and buy this 1 cool.gif

Does SME warranty cover is good? better than other original phone company for example SiS(HTC), NCC(Nokia), etc etc.

hehe, some poison, tonight let me snap some cool non resize pic as poison to you guys. Both phone are working fine REAL good! FYI it's better not to install task killer and battery guard or something, my battery went down faster yesterday.

the center button of this phone is just like an iphone, the moment you tekan it will bring u back to the main menu. HAHA!

*one negative point i should highlight, there is no indicator light which isn't really that good imo.

I am here to ask about battery life as well.
How about minimal usage ? Like maybe, a few call or sms'es, maybe browse abit. Can last 2 days + ?
Can tahan maybe a 2 days trip, only use for calling n sms ?
Any more example will helps, looking at Ace now.

And 1 more, can the no flash issue be fixed ? Sorry, noob in smartphones eh. Just wanna get 1 now.

Yes, its already available with the original warranty by SME (Samsung Malaysia Electronics). Some from the Garage Sales section are selling it at the moment, in fact there's a price war here already. brows.gif

From what I can summarise, the differences are:

-Screen size and color display ability (3.5 inch 16million colors on Galaxy Ace compared to 3.2 inch 262k colors on Optimus One)

-Camera (5MP on GA compared to 3MP on O1)

-RAM (278MB on GA compared to 512MB on O1)

-Battery (1350mAH on GA compared to 1500mAH on O1)

-Wifi (WiFi b/g/n on GA compared to b/g only on O1)

-Processor (800Mhz Qualcomm MSM7227-1 Turbo on GA compared to 600Mhz Qualcomm MSM7227 on O1)

Hope this helps. smile.gif

Ace is better in most aspect.
RAM is most argued by most people, but we will have to wait a full review to see whether the 278mb is sufficient onot, i guess.
Evrything is good enough for me, except battery life doh.gif
Screen and processor loot power than op1, but smaller battert than op1 doh.gif
Samsung could have give us a 1500mAh battery and i guess the manufacturing cost will still be low enough to place a good price tag... too bad.

Reviews aren't going to help much, you actually need to see it first hand for yourself to properly decide.

Like me last time, I read reviews constantly on three phones, the DHD, DZ and SGS. Read them repeatedly for a month and still can't decide, its until I actually get to hold and try them out that I finally make my decision. smile.gif

278mb of ram is more than enough la for this range of phone. The bigger screen and the advantage of the wider screen and also the color display! 16m fuh.. this is where ACE fully TRIUMP! let me share you some pictures!!!!

How about minimal usage ? Like maybe, a few call or sms'es, maybe browse abit. Can last 2 days + ?
Can tahan maybe a 2 days trip, only use for calling n sms ?
Any more example will helps, looking at Ace now.

And 1 more, can the no flash issue be fixed ? Sorry, noob in smartphones eh. Just wanna get 1 now.

after did some review.. this phone should be high recommendation for those who budget below RM1k..

before this.. i would say LG Optimus One.. with price and it specs.. and now.. galaxy ace grab the title.. best spec for phone below RM1k..

i also do some comparison with other mid-end phone where those price range RM1k - RM1.5k.. some of them get beaten by this Galaxy Ace in term of specs..

a simple review on behalf on my friend who bought the Galaxy Ace from mikecmy just now at Sunway Pyramid. Me and him compared the Galaxy Ace with his previous phone, the HTC Wildfire.

1. The phone feels so smooth! unlike the Touchwiz 3.0 at Samsung Galaxy S this is nearing the smoothness of iphone 3GS on OS4.2.1!
2. The battery lasted quite awhile too. We downloaded countless apps, try to view several vids on Rockplayer, hearing some songs, watch youtube vids and yet after 3~4 hours only the battery goes to 5% from 20% i think, which is quite an improvement compared to his old HTC Wildfire.
3. The screen. Not much comment on it but it's quite comparable to Iphone 3GS to me; the size and vividness of the screen.
4. It's running on Android 2.2.1
5. Samsung's Task Manager is quite intelligent, we don't feel the need of Advanced Task Killer anymore. lol.
6. The sound is quite loud, but one thing that i don't fancy is the placement of the speaker which is at the back of the phone.
7. The video player doesn't play XVID format, hence we downloaded Rockplayer to counter this. Also, HD video can't be played, laggy at 0.5fps.
8. Build quality is quite solid, and the phone is heavier compared to Galaxy S, in which to me feels like it's worth paying for the phone's price.
8. The camera pic is better than HTC Wildfire too, though both are 5mpx shooter. Maybe Samsung processes the pictures differently than HTC or maybe the lens is better than HTC's.
9. About the memory, yeah, it's lower than an Optimus One, but with its intelligent task killer and faster proc @ 800mhz, we don't feel the downside of it.....yet.
10. Samsung's Touchwiz customization isn't much compared to HTC's Sense like widgets and menu shortcuts in which my friend initially complained, but he said it's nothing to be worry about.

Overall for a low-mid end Android, i'd recommend this Samsung Galaxy Ace to anyone who is interested buying it smile.gif

That's all for now I guess. The seller (mikecmy) is quite good too, chatted with us although his gf is waiting for so long already at another place. lol. I recommend buying from him biggrin.gif

Can't comment much about the phone yet, just using it right now .
It's damn light weigh (I feel this way, I don't know why xD)!
Browsing is awesome but not the best.
the speed is acceptable, quite fast actually.

I try to give a full review soon if got time. laugh.gif

I got my unit yesterday from jason/moon. all the way from klang to kepong to grab the last black unit of the day biggrin.gif

very satisfied with the phone. I got this ace and LG O1 in hand now.
I love both of them, but at some part I love the Ace a little more.

Ace pro's:
like the camera(5MP with flash),
the screen size(3.5"),
sound/audio reproduction,
android 2.2.1 out of the box,

con's:
speaker placement at the back( I prefer at the front like LG O1),
278MB ram (should make it 512MB min much like LG O1),
shining crome part at the side of the phone, looks cheap and fingerprint magnet( I prefer the crome part at LG O1),
lack of full flash 10 on browser,
old version of google aps out of the box, Market, Map all old version (can be upgraded through market),

Hello? U know that after diving the ram for OS and Adreno Graphic itself, 278MB of ram is sufficient already. I believe u haven't realize Xperia X10 has only 384MB of RAM on board. What happen when u divided the RAM for OS and Graphic as well as the Default apps like TimeScape UI?

Hi. Do you realize why the phone does not support full flash10 out of the box despite having froyo installed?
I am using this ace phone right now. Running normal task already eat 75% of the ram. If full flash browser installed I bet it will easily reach 99% and the system will lag as hell.

Well, try the Milestone, its a FWVGA (480x854) android with only 256MB RAM. doh.gif

I can say although it has even less RAM than the Ace, it runs quite fine. Only thing is heavy multitasking is obviously not recommended. sweat.gif

I got my unit yesterday from jason/moon. all the way from klang to kepong to grab the last black unit of the day biggrin.gif

very satisfied with the phone. I got this ace and LG O1 in hand now.
I love both of them, but at some part I love the Ace a little more.

Ace pro's:
like the camera(5MP with flash),
the screen size(3.5"),
sound/audio reproduction,
android 2.2.1 out of the box,

con's:
speaker placement at the back( I prefer at the front like LG O1),
278MB ram (should make it 512MB min much like LG O1),
shining crome part at the side of the phone, looks cheap and fingerprint magnet( I prefer the crome part at LG O1),
lack of full flash 10 on browser,
old version of google aps out of the box, Market, Map all old version (can be upgraded through market),
*
wah u got both best phone which budget below rm1k
nice man,i also wan biggrin.gif

I thought out of the box is froyo 2.2 only?? Then 2.2.1 can root??

2.2.1 also can root
but need downgrade to 2.2 1st(correct me if im wrong)

not suitable to compare both phone.. coz both phone not at the same level.. smile.gif
samsung vibrant specs is like samsung galaxy S.. which is should categorize as high-end phone..

if ur budget below RM1k.. for low-end phone.. Galaxy Ace specs is better than other low-end phone..
if ur budget more than RM1k.. than u should not look at Galaxy Ace coz mid-end phone specs should be more better.. smile.gif

changing phone is never right or wrong. haha. it's whether you can afford or not. i think i've changed more than 6 phones in the last 8 months.
From E71 > Milestone > Samsung Galaxy Ace
From E71 > Samsung Galaxy 5 > SE Aspen (not so user friendly) > LG GW620 > Samsung C3222

Haha testing out here and there and now quite satisfied with the combination of Ace and Samsung C3222. tongue.gif Can't live without 3g else i will be using only the samsung C3222 it's solid and sturdy. haha

True though. It used to be a reason that might stop me.
But i came across a thought that, when it comes to recording... phone is always weaker.
Yea i know, some phone provide real good recording, but those are in high-end price.
I saw video recorded by my sis samsung wave. Reviewed as good quality recording, but for me.... kinda weak also.
You just don't use phone to record important or quality demanded video , right ?
So quickly, i put that aside.
Use the right device for right purpose.
Just my opinion though.
However, better if it offers better recording lar~

Yes, but come on, 15fps? I think ANY phone in the RM900 range can do better... anyway... I'm not using the phone as a primary video recorder, but it does come in handy sometimes smile.gif

Then simple, choose another phone with a better fps? haha for someone like me i only occasionally take some pictures candid camera type and heavy messaging and txting. so it's fine with me. You might want something better than.

Hmm my first day battery was below average.. second day it lasted 16hours with half the time usage on idling, wifi and surfing, and games.

I find this to be quite random. I read upon some user's Ace can tahan 1 days +, with gaming, wifi once a while.
While some bash it for can't even tahan half days.
I don't know, but is this a common thing when it come to battery life ?
If i buy this, i will close unnecessary stuff like wifi, 3g coverage when not in use.
I guess it helps with battery life ?

Haha my first day of using it was kinda bad, cause I'm new with the phone. Had alot of things running. But I learnt from trial and error, off the 3g and activate only 2g and the battery lasted longer.

lol those comments usually comes from user who does not know how to optimize the battery. if you once used an android before you pretty much would know how to optimize it. my phone battery can last one whole day despite playing and downloading with 3g on and never off.

Yeap, probably. Read some tips on optimizing the battery and will use them.
But so far i read is, close 3g, wifi, dump unnecessary widgets and background apps, when idle set low processor clock... any else ?

To extend battery life on Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830, turn off your Bluetooth when you’re not using it. As we know, Bluetooth is a wireless connection that can receive and transmit information, but to do this it consumes battery power. Your Samsung Galaxy Ace display is set to full brightness at first start up this can put a strain on your battery. However, you can reduce the screen brightness and the screen timeout.-Samsung phones questions

When you don’t use the web, download or video call on Samsung Galaxy Ace, turn off 3G to save battery life. Another feature that can affect your battery life is WiFi, make sure this is switched off when its not in use. I think these intructions will help you to extend battery life on your Samsung S5830.

most importantly in Ace is that, try not to on your GPS when you are not using it. do not click on allow gps to locate your location and if you are not using google navigator just off it.

Despite there are cool apps like gps tracker where can track your phone location but those apps are going to kill your battery life span.

1-no complaint for this baby. only that when loading website using default browser (esp those blogs with embedded songs + glitter everywhere) seems infinite. had to refresh. others quite well. text is readable most of the time.

2-battery can last at least one day for me. every night have to charge la. its ok by me.

3-camera is nice for multipurpose gadget. video is terrible. even when playing back, obviously pixelated. gallery is very nice (layout + animation)

4-speaker is so so. but clear. audible when outside.

5-built in task manager cant beat task killer. a lot of services/apps undetected by samsung task manager.

6-i dont have anything against touchwiz. it serve their purpose well. those in love with sense UI, get launcher pro. their top 5 buttons really handy for better battery comsuption.

7-design wise? chick magnet. sophisticated (iphonish) looks surely brought attention.(and fingerprints too!) optimus one looks like plain old PDA.

8-havent tried DNSe.

9-gps accuracy is on par with agps enabled.

10-angry birds. only lag there's notification/ads. when fully zoom out, those birds no longer looks cute anymore.

11-sns - Y U NO love malaysia, zuck? cant use facebook places. blackberry has access already. come on zuck!

12-document editing - nah! i never use it.

yes it does not comes with gorilla glass nor amoled screen.
viewing from my own eyes, I feel like my LG Optimus One have better screen than my Galaxy Ace.
Optimus One got more brighter and vivid color than ace.

Li-On is different from old batteries already. no need 8 hours of first charge. you can simply just use it.
searched wiki saying that even if you charge for 8 hours, it's not going to make the batteries live longer~ haha

The Ace only specifies 187MB of available ROM to the user, not the total size ROM, as for that we don't know either.

I saw this phone in 1Utama 2 days back. For Rm900+ I have to say it's a great buy. The first time I grabbed it I was shocked out of my mind because I thought a new SGS is out tongue.gif. It's smooth and sleek and to me incredible at that price. Other mid range phones are going to have a run for their money if this thing spreads.

It doesn't support flash, same case with the Optimus One.

Both phones are using the same chipset, if O1 can't support flash, neither can the Ace. Sad huh.

I don't have this phone, so I can't really know. But judging from the many reviews out on the net, doesn't look like it supports flash. It is a sub 1k phone after all..

Its a stock ROM's score, so there might be bloatware and stuff slowing things down, not to mention custom ROMs getting the advantage of overclocked CPU, zipaligned partitions, and many other optimizations. smile.gif

Now I think of it, that Optimus 3D (that dual core 3d phone) getting 2.8k on stock really is crazy. blink.gif

Went and got myself an Ace this evening. Somehow, was very careless and only noticed the microSD not in the box when I got home doh.gif Never mind whose fault it was, what I want to know is what's inside the card? Anything I'd miss? Or is it just some Samsung sync software? Thanks a lot smile.gif

Hi. For those who already bought it, what case you use for protection? Any shop selling the transparent/clear case?

The samsung sync software is in the CD included in the box, I don't think anything much is in the card other than some sample songs and pictures.

I want to get this phone... Was wondering the same thing... But I know many people know the Samsung Galaxy S (SGS) GPS problem...
Its stated on SGS thread that phones manufactured after October 2010 for SGS have no GPS problem...........

So, I think its safe to assume that you won't face GPS issues..... About comparing to the Nokia 5800XM, I have no idea...........

Just bought Samsung Ace yesterday with jason / moon @ RM 917. GPS is OK, I used it without SIM card. The Papago performance is about the same as my GPS device.

I just bought this this phone today for RM920 in SS2. Not the cheapest i guess but that's the usual shop I buy my handphone, I go there for the good service.

So far so good, quite smooth. Try Papago just now, without AGPS, got lock in about 3min, don't know this is good or not. I am still exploring the phone, it is my first android, so I don't really know what to expect.

Read this, if you gona buy SGA before 31st Mac.

Galaxy Ace is good enough for me, but Digi dont have this phone yet.
Current Digi plan for DHD is good, because first 6 months unlimited data plan is only RM23.

If i get Galaxy Ace:

Phone: RM900
24 months Digi: 63x23 = RM1512

Total = RM2412


If i get HTC DHD:

Phone: RM1400
24 months Digi: 23x6 + 63x18 = RM1272

Total: RM2672


That means i just need to top up RM260 to upgrade from Galaxy Ace to DHD.
Unless Digi will come out with a Galaxy Ace smart plan, or DHD smart plan will be more worth it.

saw it on GSM arena. it comes with 800 MHz ARM 11 processor, Adreno 200 GPU, Qualcomm MSM7227 chipset.

but when i see it on the official samsung website, no Adreno 200 GPU mentioned in tech spec and the processor are 800MHz (MSM7227-1 Turbo)

so is there any difference?

Digi should offer this for RM399 + 2-year contract. Sure many buyers. Instead, Digi came up with 2 other devices - a CSL tablet and a Huawei entry level Android... and it's not even a new phone tongue.gif

If getting DiGi Smart Plan, that is true... but you need upfront payment for the phone and RM500 deposit, so 1399 + 500 = 1899, this may turn off some people. For those who don't need Smart Plan (like me), can just buy Ace first biggrin.gif

Yes, Digi should offer SGA plan.

Yes, RM500 deposit. But when will Digi refund the deposit?
I have check Digi post paid plan, their RM50 or RM68 (unlimited data) is suitable for me. But their RM50 plan data charge is 10cents/10KB, thats quite expensive.

Im getting a SGA or DHD this month. But will using the RM68 plan for sure. Any advice? icon_question.gif

The RM500 deposit will not be refunded. Instead, it will be used to knock off your monthly bills. That means you won't need to pay anything for the first few months as your monthly charges will be deducted from the RM500. If you don't mind staying with DiGi and are sure of using the Smart Plan, then the DHD offer now is a good deal. Phone is RM1399 only and the first 6 months only RM23 for the Smart Plan! Save RM270!

6 x 23 = RM138 (offer now)
6 x 68 = RM408 (normal)

Thanks for the clarify bro, now i understand how they charge smile.gif
I will switch to Digi, because their rate is more reasonable. But Digi RM50 plan's 10cents/10kb data charge is qite expensive rite?

You're using Digi too? Mind to share some other telco package which is cheaper (if have)?

I'm using DiGi, but not the Smart Plan. I only just signed up for the Internet Lite (equivalent of Smart Plan Lite), which is RM33 for 300MB. After 300MB, no more data. Smart Plan slows down your speed if you exceed quota, unlike Maxis which charges you like RM5 per MB (can't remember the actual rate). Not sure about Celcom. You definitely need a data plan if you use Internet on your phone! Otherwise those per KB charges will kill you. From forum postings, seems like DiGi Smart Plan is cheapest. But remember that Smart Plan does not include calls and SMS, those will be calculated separately, Pay-As-You-Use.

I think is Eagle Communication, a few shop down from the Ampang Yong Tau Fu, the tauke is Andy, good chap. Using Android 2.21, don't know how check whether is Malaysia or Thai. Being going to Andy for about 10yr already. Bought directly(sendiri buy) or indirectly(buy for friend) from him at least 20+ h/phone. At this moment, he doesn't have the screen protector and pouch, but promise to give me free when he got stock, expected in 2 weeks time.

You can't expect much on 1350 mAh battery.
If you are heavy user, you will find the battery drain very fast, especially when you are on WiFI or 3G.
I never had time to try intensive battery test, but for an average usage I might get them last for 4 to 5 hours with Wifi/3G always on.

I will switch to Digi, because their rate is more reasonable. But Digi RM50 plan's 10cents/10kb data charge is qite expensive rite?

You're using Digi too? Mind to share some other telco package which is cheaper (if have)?

I think digi offers the cheapest plan already compared to the others. im using RM50 + internet unlimited rm68. Better call rate + sms rate with unlimited. Smart Plan is great actually. Might sign up for DHD and sell the phone off tongue.gif

OP1 might only comparable to Legend maybe? no point playing the waiting game, i waited for my milestone to have 2.2! i ended up frustrated and sold off the phone. if i want 2.3, i'll just change. haha

Though the O1 vs Ace depends on the potential user. So far, Ace doesn't seem to have much custom ROM's hanging around, while the O1 is pretty abundant with it.

But in the near future the Ace would probably have a bunch of custom ROMs. biggrin.gif

You can check your warranty by Samsung by SMS, it will reply with your warranty period. If it's not registered with Samsung, then maybe AP set? Water set?
Send to 62002.
PC [your phone IMEI]

If you haven't bought the phone yet, the IMEI might not even be registered... not too sure. Why not buy from reputable sellers? We have a few here in Garage Sales.

Same as Nokia. Tap *#06# on the dialer.
Ensure IMEI on box is the same as the one on the phone, phone sticker, etc.

Come on, if the phone is around rm9xx it's a worth to go already. no point going so far away just for 10 - 30 ringgit discount. You wasted your precious time + toll + petrol + parking.

If you dont want to waste toll = petrol + parking, they also offer postage, just pay few ringgit only for postage.

sorry if this kinda offtopic,
but since Adreno 200 is the built in gpu in Qualcomm MSM7227 chipset.
does this mean that all phone that used MSM7227 got a built in Adreno 200, e.g Sony X8, Csl Mi300, Htc Aria?

Very good phone GPS performance, not like my old Nokia Garmin, always detect that I'm on some other parallel road.

Tried Papago X5 and Aura Sygic. Papago not much settings, volume very low, but can expect good map updates from the MFM guys, and shows photos when you approach forks. Sygic navigation is questionable, brought me pusing-pusing makan angin, and searching for destinations seem confusing to me, but has very smooth animation (Garmin looks like PPT slideshow in comparison) and lane info (like you're on highway with 4 lanes it will highlight which lane you're supposed to be on).

Google Navigation haven't tried... I heard that voice navigation is not supported in Malaysia?

Confirmed it's gorilla glass? but based on the scratch test at the 1st page, seems like it's quite solid and tough.

Fantastic Communications selling all of their phones with the above items free.  Currently they are selling SGAce at RM917.  Many positive feedbacks, it seems.  Can search at Garage Sales.

Saw that thread too but I still wondering to get
8gb + 2 years warranty without freebies ( Rm999 ) from gtrowa2003
( http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=1764977&hl= )

or

2gb + 1 year warranty with freebies from moon.

Any idea how much does it cost for each of the items? ( screen protector, casing, etc etc )
thinking where can i buy it since its still new in the market..><
thanks!
