u bought at directd also? so far so good? do you know directd i9506 brought in from which country?
QUOTE(S-Two @ Feb 8 2014, 09:00 PM)
In my words, in terms of speed, i9506 (Qualcomm S800 Quad 2.3 GHz) would be better than i9505 (Qualcomm S600 Quad 1.9 GHz). But in user experience, it's basically similar in both device. So, your choice is not bad just like mudkipryan94 said. nod.gif

I don't know about about DirectD i9506, but it's sure from overseas. Service is quite fast (I bought a Lenovo phone once from them) and it only took a few days for my unit to arrive. The letdown is their warranty service (Brandstar).
I've seen people complaining about their poor warranty claiming. Read this: https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2038836
. I bought mine from Korea.

ya i also aware of the warranty issue by brandstar, that's y it stops me from simply buy it. but a Snapdragon 800 s4 is really quite delicious. nod.gif

Guys, can suggest me casing that can cover every corner of this phone? Otterbox is too bulky. And flap casing, trouble some. I prefer back protector or something like back and front protector but not too bulky. Just want to protect from scratch when fall.
*
just go to lelong and search for s4 cases, plenty of choices there. personally i prefer spigen cases, nice design n good protection.

U want all those and slim design,  for spigen neo hybrid. If want thicker protection go for spigen armor. Go spigen. Com to check out the pics.
Make sure u get ori I used 1 year never regret as ori material is so nice to hold. Ori with promo As cheap as rm50 each in lowyat ground floor called "hotspot", just behind samsung  store.

QUOTE(Cavino @ Feb 27 2014, 10:30 AM)
Sure or not, unless you want due to cheaper price. S5 although look similar to S4, do have much stronger processor. Although only 0.1" bigger screen with same resolution, it has a new imaging chip that "enhanced the coloring" further, so technically should be better display than current model. Enhanced battery means longer lasting tho its heavier and thicker a bit. Being newer flagship means Samsung will support this model at least 1 year longer.
*
i9506 features a s800 processor dy, only slightly weaker than s801 processor. ya price is probably another issue since s5 gonna priced around rm2200-2300, and i can get i9506 around rm1800 now (cheaper after s5 launched in malaysia?) as for the screen and battery, no much difference imo.

Yea better get note 2 looks like S5 but not as powerful as s5 and lesser features but u can get a good price.
*
lol i dun care about its outlook at all. and i dun get note 2/3 becoz i think a 5.0' screen is best in size.

will i9506 constantly receives software updates like i9500 and i9505? coz seem like i9506 is very minority in the market.

if i buy a foreign set (malaysia no i9506 ori set), i can still receive updates rite?

anybody here using i9506, gotta need to know more about it. are the common problems like overheat(i9500) and camera issue(i9505) ever existing on i9506?

also how about the battery life of i9506, since it is running on s800 processor with same battery capacity as i9500 and i9505.
