that because there not much competition in the market but now there alot of competition things is different now

i have HTC one x to dispose for 808 later on. i'm not sure to sell directly or to trade in, i think better trade in, no hassle.

Neverever trade in for mobile phone. I learn a lesson in life they sell lower to you just because you buy their phone so actually they make money in that trade. Their method is buy low sell high.

If you want to have a better deal sell it to forumers like on lowyat then buy a new one.

you're right, with samsung s3 RRP is only RM2199. i think the right retail price for 808 is RM1899 in order to compete.
if you bought outside of nokia store i think you can shave off like RM100-RM200? or maybe more?

it depends on how you look at this. Currently there is nothing to compete with the Nokia 808 pureview. The camera is one of a kind.

808 - 41MP
Other phone highest 16MP and havent launch

Sensor size - F1/1.2
Other phone biggest also F1.83 aka Nokia N8
Pureview - Only Nokia 808 Pureview
Good lens - Carl zeiss optics only Nokia

I buy a good compact camera also cost about 1.5k. Now you pay for a phone + amazing camera + amazing social integration + big screen + HDMI output + FM Transmitter and etc so even its 2.3K , 2.5k its still cheap.

Its only expensive if you have alot of competition like android.

Just imagine

Ipod + tablet + phone + phone + GPS + PSP and etc the hassle you need charge so many devices and maintain it

But now

Iphone (gps+phone+gaming+ Email + Music Player + Mobile hotspot+ Movie player) + tablet + one portable charger


I only go for ipad for the gaming experience and the fludiity + good resell value

i believe it will drop faster to RM 1500, but then .. maintain at RM 1500 for a long period XD

very well said

Last time: iPod Touch + SmartPhone = Hassle?
Now: Tablet + SmartPhone = No Hassle?
No difference, when no tablet time, people said hassle carry extra item. Now with tablet, bigger and heavier, people can carry. So, the argument becomes invalid. Haha.
In short, as long as the person happy, it won't become hassle, suddenly they have good reason and mindset can change.

iPad can do same thing as iPhone, no need to get iPhone already, can get other REAL smartphone.
If get iPhone, then can get other tablet non-Apple.
But some people prefer same and only use the same OS.

So, again, it depends on individual; The person happy can already, hehe

AIO thing really depends on person.
As a gamer myself, I despise game quality at mobile..noone were epic.

Btw, any news from other Nokia store regarding PureView 808?

Nice

a good camera with a average smartphone attached versus a good smartphone with a mediocre camera attached. Hmm..

Hm... How do you define good smartphone?

iPhone not one. It's more like a media phone; What people like is the smoothness, apps and games and... BRAND.

Android? It's also nothing special compared to Symbian? It just comes with more apps/games and customization.

So, in short, most people wants apps/games, and then the smoothness like iOS.

A smartphone should be able to deliver a good mobile computing experience, which was what it was since the beginning, which Symbian and Windows MOBILE (or PocketPC) comes from since the beginning and now Android.

smartphone? a phone that makes you looks like smartass.

808 has apparently gone on sale in India for Rs. 29,999 (about RM1685).

Anyone have jalan to bulk purchase from India?

Interesting Video comparison between Iphone 4 vs 808:



Note that the microphone recording makes a hell lot of difference. That will be important for multimedia fan out there eyeing the 808.

For sarcastic or jokes; Smartphone for dumb people. Yay! We're all dumb...

i would like to say 808 is king of multimedia phone haha...

since it is the main selling point

This is true andy. My recent 'experiment' with my recent Kopitiam reader app (click here) shows that pipu using android/ios CRAVE for apps in their phone.

Fixed

Added on May 30, 2012, 5:15 pmIt seems the joke is slowly coming true. if you notice if people have a question they use google beside that more and more ppl are staying indoor separating reality and virtual. People are getting more dependant.

I even feel todate people cant even tell whats good and bad due to the constant brainwash by media and people.
