all my samsung note, note II, S3 bought first batch on or before first day launching - all no problem (touchwood)..... so buy the first batch, coz they have more time to QC it, else after launching, orders keep piling up, less QC is "required" coz need to rush it out.  tongue.gif  just j/k...  laugh.gif

I would say more than 50% of the time I get my phones before official date available n more than half are AP sets. And about half of them deal through postage
I am very lucky as till today I have yet to get a defective set out from the box.
Even phones I buy from UK n tablet from USA had also being a very good experience.
So I hope my luck still stay this way.
Btw I never have black clipping issues on my Note1 ( AP set) n I think these are limited hardware problems.

Alieamin is a highly recommended trusted seller. His prices usually at least rm100 lower than official. His shop (SEP outlet) in Klang but he is willing to meetup buyers in KL/Pj/Subang
I have deal with him once face to face while 2 times through poslaju

Rm999 seem overpriced a lot, RM399-Rm599 is reasonable  brows.gif

Too high lah. I will not even want to pay rm200 for it. Samsung is selling n pricing it as novelty only

Not so much difference as the wages are quite low in malaysia.
not everyone could afford ipad, which is myself for an instance. tongue.gif

If you don't convert, dollar for dollar Malaysian gadgets are comparatively more expensive. Our earning power is much lower n gadgets eg this phone is close to 100% of most starting graduate salary while is less than 50% in, say Singapore.

Phonearena comment on the Note 3 4K video recording :The Samsung Galaxy Note 3 can record video in 4K resolution. That's 3840 x 2160 pixels, meant to match the native pixel count of those new, fancy 4K TVs. And the footage does look pristine – smooth and with tons of detail.

I completely disagree. The 4K video to me is horribly lousy and worst than even the regular 1080p recording. How this reviewer can give such comments. No wonder many people says PhoneArena is always bias/favoured to Samsung

And being quite "blind" to camera shots quality , I'd say overall all the photos looks crap to me !!! Disappointing is the word

if u do not like the feature, then u can opt not using it

I didn't say I don't like those features. Only saying the reviewer is just being bias/favouring Samsung
He even has the nerve to say the photos "Yet they did turn out pretty good," - I cannot believe it. As said many times I am quite "blind" to camera shot quality but overall his camera shots are very bad even to me a noob !!

Andrew I watch the 4k video on the web on my iMac. I watch it again on my Windows desktop.
I will still say is horrible lousy vs the 1080 version. Details better? ?? I don't find it so. Anyway is just my opinion
