Kiasu never ending.

Samsung has been using Sony and Samsung camera sensor combination for so long. They also use Snapdragon and Exynos for different region for so long.

Just like whoever getting an iPhone will always compare the yellowish tint to blue tint due to screen from different manufacturer. Now even worse, compare soc made by Samsung vs TSMC.

Depends on how the test was run...

Sometimes I wonder how they would run these tests. Run them a fixed number of times or keep them running till it totally deplete the battery.

Besides they are testing the Snapdragon 820 version which only had 4 high performance cores instead of another set of power saving A53 cores that the Exynos had.

For those who miss out on Samsung offer, Celcom have come to rescue you...

I wonder those already sign up First Blue/80 can get discount or not.

There's also a chance to get it free... Maybe 7th customers in every branch?

Update:

I just tried for fun and it seem like although Celcom listed First Blue but the prebook dont have First Blue as option. Not sure if it was mistake by webmaster or it is not eligible for the pre-book/lucky draw.

A bit too bright I think... even the walls are reflecting. If compare 1st and 2nd, the 2nd looks more natural...

For data, not sure... great for my area. For calls, no problem at all so far.

However, given Malaysian preference for Maxis (like its some branded stuff), Im not surprised.

Apparently my fren who got his S7 Edge in Singapore told me the RAM management issue still persists.

He tried to open around 7-8 websites and the websites needs to reload everytime he went back to the first website and so on.

Anyone can confirm that?

Malaysia havent sell... how to confirm?

If you manage to preorder with Samsung, you get freebies.

For Celcom? Nothing except the discount. And it is funny that First Blue can get the phone cheaper. I hope it is an error.

12months vs 24months commitment.

Mate 8 vs S7 Edge : a very close "fight" !!

The thing is though... Exynos 8890 features Mali 880MP12 (I believe this refer to the number of cores) while Kirin 950 only has Mali 880MP4. Some of the gpu benches also show Kirin 950 losing to Exynos 7420 because it has Mali 760MP8 (8 last gen cores versus 4 new gen cores on Kirin 950)

TBH, I told myself I won't bother buying S7E if the price tag is above ~RM2.6k.

Had my eye on Mi5, and even followed Mi5 MWC presentation.

But the first batch of pre-order was a Hot Deal not to be missed.

RM3099 * 20% =  RM619.80
128 GB Evo +  = ~RM300
1 year add warranty = RM???

Basically, you are buying a premium well branded, well known brand for
3099 - 619.80 - 300 = ~RM 2179.20 WITH an extended 1 year SME warranty. Can't blame if some of us are ecstatic about it tongue.gif

That is like the price tag of Mi5 Pro, but will better branding and curve edges.

I'm sure that someone had already math it out, but, oh well. tongue.gif

Warranty is worth nothing if you are not going to utilize it, dont you think so? Hahahaha...

That's why I wonder why reviewer waste time comparing milliseconds difference in launch speed when all it matters was the gaming experience itself.

The selling price is more important than the warranty itself...

Ask ur self, phone with SME warranty prices lower or None warranty Higher resale

To be honest, I choose lower price... LOL

I never been to Samsung to claim anything except for my Note2 screen that has gradient problem. Just become kiasu that day and bug the Samsung technician until he changed it for me, even though I knew the replacement would still have the problem. LOL...

S2, S3, Note, Note2, S6E... never once being bog by hardware problem.

No way... expandable memory is back, bigger battery is back.

In order to call it a failure, one would have to wait till the device's end of life to decide. You cant really call your life a failure when you are still living and trying to improve upon it.

BTW I don't know why you guys still bother to reply certain trolls with a newly registered account. They already show no intention of getting the phone yet they keep on nitpicking and posting stuffs that highlight the cons of the phone here

Just ignore them and move on. I haven't posted in the mobile section for quite a long time until recently and it seems the situation is still not improved compared to few years ago.

Chill bro... I dont think he's that bad. At least he backed it up with facts. No some sort of hatred.

S6E is obsolete but it is special now. The only 5.1" Edge'd smartphone from Samsung.
