Ha... Can you believe.
I got myself a L925 now but in a way that I definitely would not prefer.

About 2.5 hours ago, I brought my wife to check out L925 in our local mobile store (non-Nokia), as I would like to show the obvious difference between L920 and L925. At the store, there are no testing unit such as those in Nokia Store or Authorized Nokia Store so customers could play around with it and do not need to worry about damaging it.

When my wife was checking out the phone, the phone somehow dropped on the glass counter and somehow a tiny dent appeared on the corner.

I clearly understood the consequence after that - To Buy whether you like it or not. Personally, I prefer L920. What I couldn't accept is they void my warranty and I have to buy at shockingly equivalent of RM2K.

We are currently working overseas.

It is very funny reason they are voiding my warranty as it is their policy not to honor Drop phone and its evidence is scratch/dent.

Okay. Enough of the Complaint and negativity.
I dislike the design of the phone. It looks like L820 on the front. Perhaps, it is due to my choice of Black. But I love the double-tap Clock feature. The camera is amazing at low light with flash, not too overexposure.

Congratz to you on your Lumia device though it's a bit unfortunate but "everything happens for a reason". wink.gif

Since it cost RM2k did you ask for free gifts (lol typical M'sians)? Put in a screen protector, ask for a wireless charger bundle. Hell, take the wireless charging cover too. rolleyes.gif

I don't have any of those. I am sad sad.gif

Sorry I've forgot when was the last time I visited Mid Valley, I've used to work there.

The only Nokia store that I know is just beside Samseng in The Gardens, right now it is undergoing renovation and moved, not so sure hows the progress now.

Since MV has a Nokia store, I should pay a visit there to get myself a Luna.

No, I'm not trying to say Malaysia has that bundle. What I'm trying to say is, you could have ask for free gifts at RM2k price, you could ask the shop to give you the wireless charging or the shell.

Typical Malaysians as in, asking free gifts when buying expensive gizmo things. laugh.gif

I don't really buy from shops so I don't have that habit of asking for free stuff.

They do not have stock for Nokia Accessories such as Case/Plate.

Anyway, believe me - not just Malaysian. Bruneian is the same as well.

I amazed by the low-light of Lumia 925 Amber update.
Indeed, more than your eyes can see.
The color represent more accurate, comparing to my L620.

However, comparing to my L620, I find L925 has a bit more yellowish "Light" background.
I don't like Dark background for all my Windows Phone experience.

Light in my L620 = Paper White. Very clear paper white.
Light in my L925 = Yellowish. If I tweaked through the Settings. It became Cool White. Still not the same as L620 Paper White.

Could be the AMOLED? Since it gives in a bit more saturated colors, you might want to check it on your monitor.

I was very surprised when WeirdGuy bought up the price offered by Superbuy, somewhat RM1.4k at that and I think he actually bought it at RM2k yesterday.

And no thanks, I'm happy with my 920. laugh.gif

Yeah, i was surprised too.
However, my first though about the price: "maybe...lumia 1020 could be under 2k then.". brows.gif

Anyway, sudah reply. tongue.gif

RM 1.5k is really a good buy if you still don't have L920.
