LTE version not available today. Probable in 2months time. So sit and wait for news.

Thats what samsung guy told me which i think is true. 2 weeks time black mist stock will arrive so probably take some time to clear octa version first? Should be early or end of June.
Oh anyone know which memory card is good for phone? Prefer 32gb. Any recommendation?

shoot... do i have the patience sad.gif

Thank you sir! Very useful information to decide whether to get i9500 or i9505..

GPU-wise, it appears i9505 with Adreno 320 is faster :
https://gfxbench.com/compare.jsp?D1=Samsung...alaxy+S4&cols=2

However CPU-wise, from your score vs gsmarena's AnTuTu benchmark of i9505, it appears i9500 is much faster..

i9500 27844
i9505 24716

Source : http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s4-review-914p6.php

Both got pro and con there.. so the deciding factor for me will be how long we have to wait to get LTE S4 in Malaysia.. LTE is important because all major providers in Malaysia are starting to offer it or moving to LTE :
Digi - speed not specified - http://www.digi.com.my/tomorrownetwork/
Celcom - 50mbps - http://www.celcom.com.my/first/data/celcom-4g-lte.php
Maxis - avg 10-30mbps, max 75mbps http://www.maxis.com.my/4GLTE/main.asp

If S4 LTE will come soon, can wait for it for future compatibility.. but if in June.. too long to wait

Was at QB mall justnow .. digi roadshow was full of people and still many phones availavle. The salespersons are lack of knowledge. They say all got 4G. I was "what the". then I ask about SView cover and they show me the std flip cover and reiterate that I need to pay extra for it. Interested but looking to get with SView cover. Maybe tomorrow will need to go to PranginMall and check out.

yap, dunno why, only in Malaysia? i remember during s3 launch there is free case, free sd card, free battery those item for freebies in Taiwan and Singapore

because in Malaysia, people tends to just walk away... that's why the shop/dealers dare to make their own rules and not getting punished... this need to change.... protection are better for dealers/suppliers rather than customers... only in Malaysia

Was at maxis center just now and was told that the LTE version will be available in 2-3weeks time. I know most of you guys are getting bored with this question but my concern is when Penang will get LTE.
Canceled my contract with digi and ported over to maxis. The rm400 penalty I paid is worth with rm500 phone rebate from maxis with 12 contract on surfmore75.

why Samsung didnt produce vehicle dock for specific model like S2 and Note1. Now need to use the universal dock kit that comes without car charger.
anybody using the vehicle dock kit? any comment with it?

Man, they've got so many models, it won't make sense to produce a low volume accessory for a specific model. There are also so many 3rd party dock/clip accessories available.

ya, but the car mode and audio out feature is very useful.
anyway, has anybody using the universal dock kit? how is it?
