justfying their spending is nature of human being. fanboyism come after that. lulz

my home theathre is sony, air cond panasonic, washing machine samsung , now phone also samsung but never be any products fans...

specs wise with good quality will get my priority

Blame the parents for not teaching the kids about the value of money. Spend !!! Spend !!! Spend !!! Daddy will pay !!!!

Would be near mid-April. Our country is one of the fortunate ones to have both Snapdragon and Exynos flavors

Ha! Ha! In that sense I am good at not spending such money on my children. My budget rm300-500 only on phones . And all my 3 kids used it till they graduate from university. The youngest graduated last year. Why would a student need a smartphone? They can do those FB/tweeter/email stuffs on their notebooks. Student should prioritise time to study and not play with smartphones. Call me old fashion. And my children never ask such stuffs from me. I will not hesitate to buy a rm5k MacBook air for them as is a more worthy investment

I'd say you have a rich dad and is willing to "spoil" you. I never believe in giving out easy money even I have it . I have trained them to work hard and earn for what they want in life. And best of all, all my kids never ask me for such stuffs except books ( I spend a huge sum of money on these) . They take willingly whatever is given to them. They don't ask for branded goods/stuffs either

that good lesson for people you want it go earn it

when you buy your own thing you feel more satisfied

yeah..maybe yes maybe not..is a question mark until they reveal the detail.. i also mentioned the size not the spec..

5k macbook after 3 years still feels brand new, fast, can tahan knocks and such (i'm living testament to that.. my 3-4 year old macbook pro is still amazing)

imagine a 3 year old smartphone :S

what can you do on it? word processing? hence laptop still better

my parents never give me money to buy hp.. my first phone was from my own pocket money earning from working part time while studying.. nowadays i always see the primary students holding sony, samsung..some even hold the iphone 4s before the 5 announced.. they are really lucky

same here

Like this, you will value your stuffs more. You will think twice, thrice before changing/upgrading
Those who can easily get money from their parents need not worry about such stuffs. They see something newer /better they will want to change as money is not an issue. When they come out to work, they will realize life is not so easy ( every sen count) unless they are benefactors from their parents business

that why young people struggle with credit card debt buying nice phone car

same here to me...student of my fren using Galaxy Note..even just a primary school only..teacher only using normal phone..pffft so lucky they to have like that...need to teach my children like uncle benny did one day..
