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. |

Since MV has a Nokia store, I should pay a visit there to get myself a Luna. QUOTE(weirdguy @ Aug 2 2013, 11:44 AM) Brunei. No, I'm not trying to say Malaysia has that bundle.

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. |

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