Hi!
I have been following this thread for a while and finally i registered to ask you for advice. My situation is: i am from spain but i have acquaintances in KL willing to make me a favor and they are coming here on 23rd of march. The prices you are talking about are rm1800 or even rm1600, which compared with the ~rm2450 (540€) here, the safe well worth to ask for the favour

then my options are: order it from directd for rm1600 right now, but i dont have any reference about the store and i wont see the phone until it will be too late and too far for any claim.
my second option would be to hope it will be sold in the official sony store before 23rd and send him to get it physically. this would be rm1800, but it is my favourite choice, i am more confident about the official store.
so, would you bet they will be able to get it before 23rd? is directd trustful enough to risk to order it?
i also concern about the phone itself, do malaysian phones include english language by default? are they internationally standard? i guess in the sony center they sell it completely free of operator and unlocked, so i will be able to put any other rom when available without zone restrictions... am i right about this or all my plan is a big fail and i would get a very nice brick from 11000km away?
Thank you very much!
1)If you order it from directed it is definitely ap which means that the warranty of the phone cant be claim through sony,it only can be claim through the seller or ap company itself.
2)Directed is a trusted seller but if you were to ask about warranty,I doubt that the ap warranty service is bad.
3)The phone itself would be in English by default
4)If you buy an ap one it will cost you 1.6k but if you buy it from Sony or any retailer that is dynamics which means warranty from Sony itself then it would cost you 1.8k.
I hope that would help you.please keep in mind that ap and dynamics are original phone just that the warranty is different.
