Is this model available after Chinese New Year? I could be retiring my Samsung Galaxy S II and getting this. Luckily my S II still serving me well over the years.

Erm...3 years++ if not mistaken. It's not long ago after they released it in Malaysia. Well, everything works well. I don't really have to change to Note 3 though. Nevertheless there's temptation!

There's no casing, no screen protector. Daily use. I kept it in a Samsung Galaxy S2 Leather Pouch Case. I'd must say the screen is made of good quality after much abuses taken from me.

If I really clean it, it will look like brand new set.

I stand corrected. Great to have a device that can last that long. No complain whatsoever.

Still the battery that comes with the phone when I first bought.

Nothing much changed. I charge it overnight almost consistently every day. Charge time is more or less the same. Could be a little bit longer but not noticeable though (for me). No bloating on the battery neither.

Charger used at home is the same. However, in the office, I uses S II charger, S III charger, Note 1 charger & Note 2 charger. I grab whatever I can in the office.

Thanks for the compliment!

How much is it for buying Note 3 outright (without any call/data plan)? I bought my S II outright on previous occasion and I'm thinking I'll be doing the same for Note 3.

Almost same as my previous purchase of S II.
