For those that have bought SME set before, could you share what's the difference on SME set compared to AP set? I would be great to share since a lot of us are going for SME set. To avoid getting an AP set instead.

Great that you point out that there's a thread about this. What i found is talking about FMG sets. I didn't find any pinned thread talking about SME sets.

*All, I'm asking in my reply if you could share, I'll appreciate if you can. If you can't, there's always someone else that would like to.

Samsung Malaysia did mention that if you purchase SGS2 at Samsung Elite Partner (SEP) outlets, it will be 2 year warranty. Source: http://www.facebook.com/daveriel/posts/353405959977

it's not a SEP. Thus, it's 1 year warranty.

Oh.. the shop is there at the ICT corner, 2nd floor. A lot of phone stalls/shops there. The Samsung store is in there.

There are SEP in Penang. Samsung email/phone support is totally bullshit. I've called once and they can't even tell the shop name. Kept telling Georgetown, Georgetown.

Now, the only question left is whether this YM Cellular is Mobile Spirit? Can someone there in 1st Avenue go check their shop lot number if it's 2C-K-06 & 07 or check with 1st Avenue customer service?

They think they can start selling it right away if there's already more than 300 ppl in the queue. No point waiting until 3pm for that. If someone come at 3pm also queue over 300.

I saw from their facebook that they are giving waters and newspaper for those in the queue. Not bad at all.. at least

I just got my SGS2 from SEP at 1st Avenue, Penang. I've asked and confirmed they are Mobile Spirit, Samsung Elite Partner. YM cellular is their shop at Perangin Mall. The phone comes with 2years warranty from Samsung.

no wonder I can't find the thread just now. Searched all the way to page 3.

Here's my SME set screenshot on the firmware details

I paid deposit last week. I only get screen protector. Heard other is getting a car charger. Might request from the boss again.

I just received a SMS saying my SGS2 is registered with e-warranty which stated there for 2 years. So, it's confirmed that SEP gives 2 years warranty.
