from past experience, normally Note series has no major issue after launch.  My Note I and 2 Note II still working like new up today.  But the S-series seems to have many issue.  sweat.gif

Here you go - https://www.dropbox.com/s/oq8e3xw9z83smwx/N...20-%20Photo.zip

The rest photos is at PhoneArena site.

I just check the Exif, wow! All outdoor most at ISO 50.

Even that indoor shoot (not using flash light one) only picking at ISO 250.

If phone camera can select own aperture, then it will be much awesome! tongue.gif

There is phone can select iso. Used to own one. I-Mobile 902 smile.gif

1) not really wanted the free galaxy gear, just wan cover the phone price by resell it
2) not finding loop hole at all
basically I learn this way when I was in Korea, Korean people usually sign-up for expensive plan for first 3 months, and change to cheap plan afterwards.
I don't know why no one in Msia use this way, and I not sure whether it will works here or not.

but again, it is not "finding loop hole"
*
it is finding the contract loop hole to cover the phone price.

Why it is consider a loop hole?

1)I need to pay the penalty
2)and need to wait 6 months for the advance payment to be used up

This is a very fair practice
I fulfilled every terms and condition set by them
*
i take back the loop hole. I didn't really read thru everything because i just find it funny tongue.gif

Just wondering, does it make your phone any cheaper ? laugh.gif
well well, in the business world, time is money. wasting the 6 months for that probably 500-600 bucks cheaper phone ?
6 months later, the phone already depreciate there about the price tongue.gif

Not wasting 6 months at all,
in the 6 months you still using the phone and enjoy your RM148 plan (6GB data, 600mins free call etc)

If you think the act of trying to save some money is funny, then I have no choice because I am indeed poor. cry.gif

But anyway, I still haven't bought it using this way, because DIGI website keeps giving error when check-out.
*
in that 6 months, do you use up to RM 148 worth of value given ?
If not, you're wasting your own money. If you monthly bill only about 80-100, you're paying additionat 48-68.
in 6 months time, you're wasting about 288-408

having to sell your galaxy gear at eg RM 600, does it justify your 6 months effort ? laugh.gif
you probably earn nothing as you still have to pay for penalty

Remember this, if a company can make it listed / thousand of employees, do you think they're stupid enough to give away 1k worth gear ? smile.gif

Yup you are absolutely right.
My monthly bill probably less than RM50 as I seldom make calls.

It is why I haven't press the PAY button yet.
still considering, while waiting for Digi facebook to confirm there is no penalty on the free galaxy gear.

In comparison,
buying a RRP phone @ RM2300, and 6 months bill (50x6 = RM300) = roughly RM2600
vs
buying Digi package @ RM1319 + 800 advance payment + 148 advance bill + 910 penalty - 800 resell gear = RM2377

the advantages here are roughly RM300 cheaper + 6 months of 600mins free call + extra data per month

not a HUGE advantage, but still some advantages

RM 300 laugh.gif
