should i choose
nexus 7 or tab 2 7.0?
1 is 8GB rm 848, 16GB rm 948 and tab 2 RM999 (wifi+3G)

nexus has better screen quality, resolution, processor
but too bad got no rear camera and 3G
*
If for just a stop gap solution, I would go for Tab 2. BTW, where do you get the the price for Tab 2? Some people I know manage to get it for RM920 during promo.

Just got mine at ioi mall.
At first go to senQ at ioi, but the stuff there don't even know what is Nexus 7...

So walk around the mall and Go to the area that sell computer stuff saw a shop with big Asus sign then went in to try my luck. The sales person in the shop say got stock, but have to take from Sunway, so I waited an hour, I use credit card they charge 2% zzzzz... so total is rm1019.00.

Since I use my new Cxtxbank card, Can get rm250 cash back, so total damage is rm769.
*
Tell me about your city bank card as I have friend with one. Perhaps I can ask my friend to get one for me if the card is the same as yours.

a shop in subang
the price suppose is considered as slightly cheap alrdy 999
maybe it's AP set not sure
*
I see. Do they actually have AP for this not so popular model?

As for the shop, could you provide me the name and location. Or any other seller in LYN who can beat that price.

I am still considering to get Tab 2 as a stop gap or wait (if I can ) for a better spec tab from other than Asus.

i asked for u alrdy
999 is ap ( 2 years warranty )
original 1177

then i think it's more worth to get N7
if u want original set
*
Thanks bro.

The 2 years warranty is from who? I forgot to ask my friend about the relative who got it for RM920. Perhaps it is also AP.

I need 3G version and I don't mind paying a tab at a fair selling price. The price for Samsung 7.7 is fair for me but it is a dual-core. I don't want to spend 1.6K for a dual-core model that I need to replace in less than a year. As for Nexus, even in US the price is just RM760 but here is RM999, which is not a fair price and perhaps if the 3G model ever launched, ASUS might jack up the price even higher which doesn't seem fair to me.

AP as usual is the shop lo
i see
if 3G is a need for u then no choice shld buy tab 2
even though i really find that N7 is more worth in term of price and spec
*
Yeah, I need 3G better.

As for the price debate. For me if it was meant to be sold at RM999, then I have no issue. But if is was meant for RM760, then ASUS jack up to RM999, then I have issue with the way they price the product.

Yeah, SenHeng ppl at Bdr Puteri dun even know what is Nexus 7. They said need to wait for 'Samsung' to confirm this model
*
Agree. SenHeng or SenQ don't know sh!t about nexus 7. For me I just need to have a look at it before I can safely rule it out and go for other tab.

At which point was it "meant for RM760"? Every other country besides US is paying RM900+ for it.
*
Our country have no tax for tablet (that is what I heard). So it should be no more than RM900.

Me as a first timer tablet user, are you guys recommend N7 ?

The main reason i am searching for a tablet is for study. (Browsing internet for articles, open my email, reading ebooks, open PDF files, open Words or PowerPoint documents and store educational documents)

So, is it worth it for me to buy N7 ?
*
If you think 7" inch is enough than by all means go and get one (not necessarily this overpriced model)

this is probably my last post about the pricing...

I think it's normal for us to have negative reaction to the local pricing...

AP dealers were previously selling at the same price. these dealers probably got their stock from a middleman who probably got it from USA. the N7 probably came from a factory in China. but you see, even with so many levels, everyone is making money...

in the local set from Asus, it's probably shipped direct from China, cutting down a few layers. yet, price is at rm999, what the AP dealers were charging then.

it's kinda obvious that Asus is being very greedy...

oh ya... i dun think Asus MY even mentioned about the usd25 credit for Google Play.
Totally agree with you. Its just pure greed. vmad.gif

Chill out bro. It was not directed to you. It was directed to those sweet and sour chicken @$$ guy who told you the story. For a market the size of Malaysia only 130 units? Just doesn't make any sense.
