It just seems weird to me when we laugh off consumers who demand lower prices so this is my 2 cents on this,


3. I believe everyone is familiar with the phrase buyers remorse. It a completely irrational emotional response yet it often creeps into our minds subconsciously. To people whom already bought and own one, perhaps seeing Asus sell it at a high price makes you feel more justified with your purchase? I just wanna say that the value of a product in terms of quality and price are two totally separable things. Yes, in this currently uncompetitive market the Nexus 7 at RM999 is still probably a bargain, but since Asus could sell it cheaper is there anything wrong in demanding for it to be cheaper? You still own the exact same quality hardware regardless of how much asus sells it for!


*
duno where you get the idea that current users that already purchased hoping that local price is more expensive.

this is not true. i hope the price is cheaper.
why? so more people buy, more users, more lively thread, more development, more accessories, more android users



i duwan to be long winded and keep repeating or quoting people.
so i make my point short.

n7=great tab, probably one of the best so far
in current msia market, best price for features.
ev1 hope 700+, but impossible.
if u feel expensive/cheated by asus, dun buy.

I am sorry if this has been asked before but I can't seem to find it. For those who bought your units from US, how do you charge the device?

I have ordered 2 units from the States but I have yet to received them. I was just wondering whether I need a special converter and if so, where do I get it? Or can I just plug the USB cable into any local "USB plug charger"?
*
go hardware shop buy international adaptor. very cheap less than rm10.
or you can plug to any USB charger. phone charger works but will take longer time to charge.
any android tablet charger with usb female input can work also. tested with samsung tab series charger and it works fine.

so... should i buy ap or the one brought in by asus? ap price at 949 bundle with a few accessories...

i think you go senQ buy better.

999, rm50 difference, but you get extra 1 year warranty from them.
much more worth compare to some accesories in my opinion.

extra RM200+ for the delivery to malaysia?.. hmm.gif but still damn worth la i tink
*
maybe 100 for delivery cost. the balance is profit.
249usd is the cost price that is only sold in US, being subsidized by google since they make profit from play store purchase.

you are the very rare one that feel its still worth at 999.
yesterday lots of people complain and cant accept the price. doh.gif

I think senheng is also selling the samsung galaxy tab 7.0 at RM999. Which one is better? Nexus 7 or Galaxy Tab 2 7.0?
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
you already listed out the pro and cons for both, you should know right? decide base on your preference.
samsung tab7.7 still got fighting chance, with amoled screen&sd card, but tab2 7 really lose la.

but let me tell you something, dual cores like exynos, they are quite on par with tegra3.
the tiomap ones are even weaker than exynos. the difference in processor for both device is obvious.
if you got chance to use both then you understand, scroll home screen, open a webpage.

samsung tablet wont get updated one.
galaxy tab10.1 last month only get ics, when the jellybean released for 2 months already.
samsung tablet very very slow update one. worst tablet manufacturer.
but they make good phones. i like samsung phone (s2), but hate hate hate their tablets.

Just want to share with all current/future nexus 7 owners : for your storage purpose without rooting there is an app call Nexus Media Importer which reads from any usb storage. Its just like stickmount except u dont need to root ! there's catch however : u cant write to usb storage, only read/copy. Its good enough for me to watch movies on the go. and for small files such as docs/pictures there's many cloud service free.
for VPN service, here's a little secret : cactusfreevpn google it plz....

thank me if u find it useful.


Added on September 21, 2012, 6:33 pm
superfree vpn is rubbish, try the one i just suggested.
*
I already added this to op.

But actually rooting is easier.
And stick mount is free.


Added on September 21, 2012, 7:03 pmLatest paranoid 2.13 has a bug for navigation buttons for phone ui,
Do not update to 2.13 if u r using phone ui.
