wow this NOTE 2 forum really moving fast now at version 10... reached page 100 and soon going V11 ha.. freaking hard to follow..

anyway i would like to have a NOTE 2.. but then thinking is it ok wait another 5 months, but worry NOTE 2 technology could be outdated after 5 months.. what extra features we could expect if buy after 5 months.. ? any significant improvements for current drawbacks ? increase of storage ?

or just get it now ? what u guys opinion ? ofcoz getting after 5 months the price wont be same.. do you guys think, price at TELCOs which comes with bundle, will be drop or they maintain same price even after 5 months ?

confuseeeeeeeeeee

I am on celcom. Trust me it has very good coverage and speed in the place I am at. I think the highest I got was like 2.5m or something.

Again, I don't check on these very often. Do it on free time ni. Reason is because celcom internet speed is really superb fast when you have H+.

Again, it depends on your location.

oh thanks for the advise bro, ya looks like DIGI coverage at my home not optimum.. if i go for DIGI internet plan i believe wont receive good speed, previously used maxis.. network coverage was good inside house..

CELCOM and MAXIS should be equal in term of coverage and mobile internet speed, im not sure enlighten me

When choose telco consider which place you spent most your time and are
U relying most on data for Internet or most of time on uniifi
I never get below 1000 Kbps since I bought note 2 two months ago
Using digi. Check overall cost of data plan, phone calls, SMS
If your friend stays near your place check what speed he is getting
On his telco
What may be good for bros here may not be the same for you
*
MAXIS voice 50 + data 3GB 68 = 118
CELCOM voice 40 + data 3GB 58 = 98



basically we pay that voice plan for nothing, unless we reach the quota always.. believe most of us less reaching that voice.. since already talking via wssup, skype and chatting on dataplan..

how nice if they set pay per use, like DIGI.. so we dont waste money on their fixed voice plan..

ya i agree mobile internet speed wise, MAXIS rules followed by CELCOM.. both anywhere can get coverage..
i dont understand what P2P some talking about here, is that downloading movies or something ?

Getting from TELCO MAXIS, any free gifts we getting for bundle package ?

so if its 12/24 months contract.. we pay the phone price and also the upfront payment right.. not the whole amount for subscribe period am i right ?

example..

surfmore 75 - 12months - phone price 1649 - upfront 250 ?

so i pay 1649+250 ? or 75 X 12 + 1649 + 250 ?

not sure what is the upfront for surfmore 50/75...


but i see for another bundle in maxis stated like below..



Please be informed that effective 10 August 2012, advance payment for all smartphones (except iPhone) will be as follows.
This is applicable for postpaid customers who have been with us for less than 1 year. Amounted will be credited into your monthly payment bill over a 5-month period.
12-month data contract: RM 50 x 5 months = RM 250
18-month data contract: RM 100 x 5 months = RM 500
24-month data contract: For devices with RRP below RM 500: RM 100 x 5 months = RM 500
For devices with RRP above RM 500: RM 200 x 5 months = RM 1000

Usually batch or just bad luck I guess

what kind issues for the phone purchased at MAXIS, so current batch having issues ? should wait for another batch ? is that like first batch manufactured and quality checked at KOREA so phone more solid, and now manufacturing and quality checking done at CHINA.. we seeing issues ?

this is what happened to GALAXY S 2 9100G my colleague bought it hell of problem, and he complained till money refunded he bought MOTO RAZR...

the first batch GALAXY S 2 9100, other 3 colleagues bought which came from KOREA fine.. when 4th friend bought the manufacturing shifted to CHINA where no more 9100, its 9100G.. which problematic..


anyway most of the phones now manufactured at CHINA, so what we can say.. maybe the chipsets was giving issues..

S 2 9100 uses Exynos chipset ....... S 2 9100G uses TI OMAP 4430

Any MAXIS users here signed for surfmore plan ? im just wondering is that really true MAXIS never charge if quota exceeded, and they just throttle the bandwidth...

how about the bill.. no addtional charges like tax and extra ? apart from the voice and data charge...

CELCOM vs MAXIS.. ppl saying CELCOM coverage is even wider and internet speed better.. im not sure how far this true..

anybody here tried to download movies online via NOTE 2, using mobile internet data plan ? is it works ? some saying P2P torrent not allowed in TELCO data plan... then how to download movies.. in case having 5GB data plan...

samsung dont hv 1 to 1 exchange policy. is jus bcoz my phone faulty NEXT DAY after i purchase, so i hv the rights to ask for 1 to 1 exchange but still subject to their approval.

head ache head ache.. what... is it TELCO no stocks and just pushing back those faulty units to new subscribers, to get more business ? i keep hearing more SGNOTE2 issues...

one get refund, another few same as me waiting exchange.
we all get from maxis in pass a week time.
on the spot test is ok, no problems.
back home install and sync the phone still ok.
night i sleep n next day wake up, LCD go crazy dy~ no drop, no crack, no knock on anything. just happen out of sudden.
*
quite weird how those faulty units could drop at MAXIS, is it randomly getting those units.. you and others happened to be the luckiest one to get those faulty units.. sure those getting from CELCOM / DIGI might face similiar or some other issues.. what u think ?

if we put blame just on MAXIS does not make sense, since they not manufacturing the devices.. just importing from CHINA.. so basically quality never checked properly and approved for shipment.. then drop at MAXIS and you got it..
maybe if i go and buy from any of the TELCO.. chances to have bad units still bright.. we believe getting from TELCO are perfect but its not..

my Bro in law just got NOTE 2 white at DIGITAL MALL, samsung warranty ori for RM2200.. looks good so far..
there is samsung dealer just opposite, selling for RM2300...
