exynos not good. i prefer snapdragon eventhou we don't have wider range of bands compare to other countries. i stick with S3 with 6.0.1

i wanna get mi5 but is cripple 820 doh.gif

So... both the exynos and sd820 are both "crippled", your s3 is still better than them? I guess you can start making your own chipset then. Make sure its not "crippled" then. laugh.gif

The only advantage of qc chipset is aosp custom rom I guess.

Most people wont know shit about the chipset they are getting on their phones. They just say they want a certain chipset because "my friend said this..bla bla bla".

From report they said only us region got snapdragon
*
Yes, usually at certain regions that are more in favour of the Snapdragon chipsets will get them especially the US. Remember the big hoo haa about the chipgate issue plaguing the Iphone 6/6S issue?

Previous SD chipsets were used in the Galaxy S4 LTE and S5 because back then, the exynos chipsets could only support 3G and not LTE. After the S6/ S6 E, the exynos chipsets were LTE capable already and I dont see any reason Samsung would put a SD on the new S7/ S7 Edge anymore. Its like you are buying a Honda Car but asking for a Toyota engine inside. laugh.gif

Actually the #ChipGate on the iPhone 6S is nothing to do with Exynos Chip.

The Apple A9 SoC is made by TMSC and Samsung. But the one made by Samsung are got some problem which not noticeable by common consumer, and there goes the #ChipGate story goes viral.

If I remember correctly, now the Samsung 14nm fabrication are 2nd gen compare to last year. So the SD820 also made by Samsung as well.

The only couple reason why Samsung market the SD820 on the western market is because couple reason, 1st, they are western people, 2nd western people are biased toward qualcomm. everything else like Mediatek, Kirin, Exynos, they boycott, and they started to complain closed source lar, no custom rom lar, this lar, that lar. Oh well... end of rant.

Actually it has everything to do with a Samsung chipset. Apple fanboys just couldn't accept a Samsung Chipset on their Apple Can Do No Wrong Iphones. Typical IFags. laugh.gif

Err.. where can i find tempered glass for s7e that cover edge to edge? I really hate smudged of plastic screen protecturr already.
*
Actually, tempered glass which covers the S6 Edge is already available. So I dont think there is any issue making one for the S7Edge as well. Problem is, the sides still lift after some time and its driving me crazy. I have tried all types of SP and glass for the S6E and trust me, all of them still lifts. Currently I am on the Spigen normal SP which costs Rm130 but it still lifts. Only good thing is you can reapply before dust gets in.

Apparently only 32gb units will initially be brought in for Spore. What is Samsung thinking now ? Many potential buyers will be dissapointed with such a move
*
As usual like with all launches, they will bring in the smallest storage first to gauge the market demand and then bring in the higher storage ones later like they did for the s5 and s6.

u r correct for our weak currency~ however, i've noticed that there is growth in sale of car (eg. Mercedes,perodua & etc) in year 2015. i feel weird about this, bcoz a lot of ppl saying drop in malaysia ringgit, but still can afford to buy car & luxury thing & etc ~

just to express my thought .

Market is bad.. slowing down. But the middle upper and high income earners are still coping well because they are still doing well, not to mention they have savings and cash at hand. The ones suffering are the middle and lower classes where their debts and loans are high and they have not much savings to spare for the rainy days.

Why are you guys talking about weak currency? Samsung trades in Korean Won so it's less damaging to current prices. Just look at the Note 5. It's 849USD in the US which is the equivalent of the iPhone 6S+ 64GB there. Can I buy a 6S+ for RM2699 here? I don't think so.

International trade is in US currency. rolleyes.gif

off topic... to be fair, the weakening of our currency have not been reflected in car price in 2015. in fact car prices reduced in 2015 due to the implementation of GST. but starting this year, many car manufacturers had increase their price, citing the main reason was due to weakening of ringgit.

Car prices were reduced in 2015 because manufacturers anticipated a slow down in sales after gst was implemented. So manufacturers gave discounts and incentives to push sales. They were still selling cars where the components was brought in here prior to drop in RM in 2015.

Yes International trades tend to favor USD but why is Malaysia's Note 5 is priced at RM2699 and in the US it's 849USD? 849USD does not equal RM2699.
They have different pricings for different regions around the world.

Hi benny, would like to ask u , is it better to use 3rd party launcher (like nova , google ) comparing to touchwiz ? Any benefits ? Phone become smoother ?

Just believe us when we say the current touchwiz is smooth and slick. Especially on the current hardware. Just try one out yourself. smile.gif


Even my hardcore "Nexus vanilla android fag" friend sherwyn admits touvhwiz on S6Edge is slick and fast. laugh.gif
