due to the GST imposed in Malaysia, so i estimate 1099 for C4 and 1299 for M4 aqua.. i do hope both of these will different from estimation price around rm100..
due to HTC Desire 826 which almost the same specs as M4 aqua come with RRP 1399/1299.. so i guess more or less the same price.. but C4 surely cheaper than M4 due to mediatek processor, cheaper cost in making.. not sure. but i guess sony mobile MY will announce in coming.. hopefully soon

M4 Aqua should be price not more than 14xx, same like Honor 6+ and Desire 826
Although it cant fight against Mi4i and Zenfone2 in terms of pricing, but dont go above 14xx which is Samsung's overpriced territory

Haha yeah.. do have AP set of Z3 dual here.. but i dont like about AP warranty..just in case if any problem, warranty coverage is different.. better choose ori set and covered by sc warranty in msia.. so far so many phone i used before, only my ZL enter sc once to fix the motherboard and battery due to death issue.. others, still stay strong.. i do have AP set of Xperia NEO before.. but still work well until now.. just recently do have some symptom that the phone refuse to charge sometime..

QUOTE(Jay Chua CC @ May 18 2015, 12:50 PM) If ap set mobo died within warranty period,will they changed it? if no mistaken, warranty 2 years only limited to software, which i can do my own.. for hardware parts, some 3 months, some 6 months. wont more than 1 years.. warranty easily get void by certain circumstance.. at least ori will qualify in 1 years on all parts..
