Just got my 930 from a forumer here, loving it so far!

One question, do you apply tempered glass SP for your 930?
I saw a number of them on eBay, but not sure how it'll look when applied.

Hi guys, where can I get this Lumia 930 from an official Nokia or Microsoft store around klang valley? Is it still recommended considering it's almost 1 year old since its release...I'm strongly considering buying this phone purely because of the display, camera and most importantly OS...I like the Microsoft ethos and ecosystem..and this phone should also get the Windows 10 update right? I presume it would be even better with the new OS soon.

Thanks
*
I've bought this phone recently,

pros:
- the camera is awesome, able to take good quality pics
- the screen is brilliant, very nice
- the phone feels very premium
- the OS is good to use, simple and easy to use.

cons:
- the battery life might not be able to sustain a day with an active data connection.
- the phone gets hot easily with data, other than that it is ok.

so other that the battery life and overheating issue, this is really a good phone to use. Nonetheless, I would recommend this phone as it is currently selling at 1.5k.

I use Arkon MG600 Tripod. The mount can be transferred to another tripod as well if you wish since the mount is using the same screw as the one on tripod.

user posted image

But, I think if you buy one of those monopods the mount can be taken off and placed on tripods too.
Any demo of the flicker?

1. It will always switch on when charging. You can't charge it while it is off.
2. Use Lumia Camera.
3. Your naked eyes
4. I use to use cover but then the cover breaks and now going commando. I bought mine on TaoBao.
5. Settings > Extras+info and Settings > about
6. I don't categorize any apps in there as bloatware as per Android
7. You can change the battery, just not as easy as a snap back cover. I don't know if stocking battery yourself is a good idea either as shelf-life is another thing that you need consider in stocking.

how much u bought it from taobao?

It has been quite sometime so I can't remember the exact price, but it's below RM20 at that time. Price might have changed due to currency conversion. It was Baseus transparent hard case. Built quality is pretty good but the thickness might bother you. The case itself is not that thick but when paired with the phone it makes the phone feel quite bulky.
I think if Cortana understand than it didn't sound fake... tongue.gif

But Cortana has the best voice recognition capability. She doesn't have problem understanding me compared to Samsung's S Voice and Google voice recognition.

how did u get it from taobao? we are supposed to get it through agent right?

I have the worst luck  cry.gif

So just a month after posting the above, I had one of those "lets go out without the casing" days today. And as my miserable luck would have it, I dropped my L930 in the carpark at work - it fell directly face down and now the screen is totalled. There are absolutely no scratches on the outside (gorilla glass super tough I guess), but I think the layer underneath that is done for. The display stopped working and is very much broken  - I only see a black screen with only green lines streaking across now  cry.gif

Looks like I need to make a trip to the service centre one of these days.

bro can let me know the price? i dropped my phone as well, now the screen cant see anything lol

Where did you go for that?

I just visited the SC in Amcorp. They quoted RM820 because mine is an internal crack. Bloody expensive!  rclxub.gif
*
what internal crack? is it because the screen turns to black?

QUOTE(mrl @ Nov 13 2015, 05:14 PM)
I guess I'll just get a new phone then............

I cracked the whole thing....

want me recommend the technician? but he will quote higher than my price coz he is my cousin.
