Just comparing the maxis 12mths contract price can already know the true value is not 2099, 2099 is just a overblown price to let maxis attract customers.

I doubt this will drop not when this phone is selling quite well and the phone has no problems at all. You can always wait next year though  icon_rolleyes.gif

Usually SE phones need to look at AP price to get a good idea what best price it really is, like last time K850 also very high the price, later also drop icon_rolleyes.gif

Well Nexus S has a RRP of RM 2,499 with a 12 months contract at 1799. Which one is worst?  laugh.gif

Arc is good phone but is it SE price it at 2099 to please and allow maxis to sell faster? Maxis has lots of outlets and marketing, maybe that's why.

I think it has no point proving whether THE ARC is overprice or not? Look at HTC/Samsung/Apple flagship phones.... anything less than 2k???

If u like the phone & the specs are up to it, the u buy & b happy. Since the price is already fixed now, making noise or complaining here also wont change it.

U can definitely wait for the price to fall but KEEP IN MIND THE FREQUENT EARTHQUAKES AT JAPAN HAVE EFFECTED ON MANY GADGETS PRODUCTION INCLUDING SE.....

SO U CAN WAIT BUT WHEN THE STOCK FINISHED IN MALAYSIA, I THINK U GOTTA WAIT FOR MANY MANY MONTHS FOR A NEW BATCH TO ARRIVE

:-)

I am just hinting maybe/perhaps maxis press SE to name the rrp at 2099 to allow maxis contracts looks attractive for their own customers, this is unfair to other telcos customers who buy at rrp. smile.gif

Normal usage (call + sms and surfing via wifi at home from 8pm - 11pm)

Why you so butthurt? If you like the phone, then just buy it or if you think you can't afford it right now, just wait until the price drop which is not so soon. End of story

La... merajuk plak. Rileks la bro. Anyone can come here to voice their opinion. No need too emo la. He he he

Anyway, the RRP is decided by SE and Maxis got nothing to do with the RRP. Even if you buy from the Authorized dealer, the price still the same.

Cheers!

haha... ya lah... why keep complaining bout price??

if u start to complain, then perhaps u cant afford it (the big picture)
its either look for a different phone or wait till the price goes down...

i waited a year before X10 price was reasonable to me last time.. no point complaining maa... add more stress only...

QUOTE(hsyong @ Apr 12 2011, 01:14 PM)
Quite reasonable lar.. considering SE track record.... X10 was RM2700 at launch.... and my fren bought Aino a couple of months after launch at nearly RM2K.

I bought the Desire HD at RM2299 last year.... so, overall, I'm satisfied with the Arc's price.

Okokokok I belip you guys laa, just WTA one thing only, is the Arc camera ExmorR really that good like SE claim? Really want ah? laugh.gif

i tested my friend Arc and compare with my X10.. seiously, lots of improvement for nite/dark scene...
pic quality really good...

so i guess, its the best in town for.. im comparing wth X10 cos there's no other android phone can beat X10 quality before this...except his bigger brother Arc...

laugh.gif Good to know the camera is good

aiyha .. drink coke in mamak rm2.5 or mcd rm3.40++

over price or not ?
but still many people go and buy or drink ..

this world is like this, there's always a price for everything
and of coz different ppl might have different point of view about the value

the point is , many ppl can live with it ..
so why bother ..

talking about same spec ...
arc is cheapest among the other during the first launch rrp price
correct me if im wrong
