If i get AP, what are the risks that i will be bearing?

yep. +1

you mean if i buy ori set, i will get ori stuffs? bundled ah?

if AP set, if the phone giving you any problem..you might need to pay to fix it
(depends on what the AP shop offer you)

if Ori, samsung will fix the phone for FREE , also no service charge needed
(of coz, depends on the failure mode and under waranty period)

in the next few weeks, many new phones would be launched.

iPhone4S, galaxy note, HTC rhyme, titan, (and maybe prime, running latest ice cream software).

so Similan expects the price to be 1000 - 1200.
that's how it is with android phones.

Ori you get warranty from samsung. AP you get warranty from dealer. If dealer run away your warranty also run away. Thats the only diff.

still, nobody told me this phone got what bad.. can someone mind elaborating? i found some review saying heat issue, yellow triangle and pink spot camera. any more bad about this phone?

Need to learn rooting/flashing to get most of it. If u treat as hobby, then ok but if u r busy wt other thgs, then get a droidnerd friend to help.

Gets very hot easily during games or tasks that require intensive processing.

Flimsy and plasticky design.

One handed operation may be difficult due to large screen.


But it's the best android phone so far in terms of hardware specs.

If 100% is perfect..I would say this phone is 99%

Heat issue? So far it didn't burn my pocket or my skin..even I play game while charging..

Yellow triangle? Lol..this is not problem..this is the warning from flashing kernel, ROM using ODIN..can be remove easily..

Pink spot? U always snap picture with white background in low light condition?

No phone is truly perfect, not even apple iPhone.

So it's up to individual to decide whether the shortcomings is acceptable or fixable or not.
