Dai Gor, u think marketing is such an easy job meh.
Just see the flow of FB, contest, setup of website, user testing event, launching event, cooperation with Lazada, SuperBuy, logistic, hiring of personnel, material printing, not even mention everything also need to comply with M'sia local law, etc.

I am quite sure Huawei planned this project since last year, or even back to 2012.
That is why this 3C project is running so well.
As a marketing person, I give Huawei marketing team 10 out of 10 for this project. Almost flawless.
Of cuz, even before this, Huawei already got root in M'sia, it helps a lot.
And 3C is a really good phone, may be the best phone with this price range.

While Xiaomi can simply launch Xiaomi in M'sia just to catch up with Huawei 3C project, while not everything is completely setup yet.
Simply setup a website and sell their phone.

Then what will u guys say then?
"Hah? After start selling 2 weeks then only got launching event 1 ah? What a joke"
"website so sucks. Huawei website much better"
"Pui. Bad customer service, call x 3 no one answer one."
"Kanasai, after order 10 days only get it"

blah x 3

Faster is not necessary better. 3 months ago, everyone go for Moto G.
But what happen now? Everyone is crazy for 3C.
Even one of my fd who bought Moto G about 3 months ago is considering to sell it and go for 3C.
Who knows what will happen when Xiaomi launch?
Give Xiaomi team some time la bro.

Well, you get what you paid for 499.
And then don't compared to your HUawei G600 only.
Try to use other 450 ~ 550 phone to compare, then it will be fairer.

But if your attention is not complaining, but just to let others know about the bug/issue about this phone for good intention, then I salute you.

Hi Calvin, the Honor 3C is priced at RM499 and exclusive only at www.vmall.my

Hi Chris. Note that currently there are no plans on revising the price so the RM499 pricetag will remain and exclusive only @ www.vmall.my

Ya, those sales or dealer shop who set price @ 539, 599, 699, or 899(!?) , may be really due to retail price and online price is different (However Huawei din mentioned it officially at all ). However I really think they simply just cunning consumer using market high demand as excuses only.

But no matter what is the reason, just try luck at Vmall first, if it is not urgent. Since Vmall price the cheapest.
Next batch is just 2moro 3.08pm. No warm waiting 1 more day.
If really fail, and really cannot wait, then 539 i think is acceptable.

3C is good bcuz of his 499 low price, if selling more than 599, then it is not worth d ...
