yes, this is the right way to keep ppl within the brand.

if offered... i might just grab another Samsung phone as replacement... but alas... we should be happy if SME don't botch this recall.

agreed on point 1 and 2... personally, i feel curved edges is really useless. might look nice but not practical on phones.

might not be good idea to leave in drawer.

if you have those metal moon cake tin... put inside there...

else, if go up in flames, stuff in your drawer might fuel the fire.

wah... that's abt rm800... i think if this is really offered in MY, i might just grab a mid range Samsung to last me till the next Note or whatever they will call it.

oopps... ya, rm400... blur today...

depends... 7+ got good resale value.

oneplus3... good phone for that price... you get extra cash for makan2, etc...

it depends on why u sold off the s7edge... dun like it, too small, etc...?

if you have negative impressions about it, then no point. if it was just the temptation of a better device (note7), then i might consider... though the pricing isn't that good.

based on price itself (more expensive than when you sold it), i think i'd just stick with oneplus 3 until next year and wait for either s8 or note8 (or whatever it's called).

update 1:
just read the exchange details... well, ok also to go for exchange since can get rm300...

SME announced refund/ exchange process...

i think they are kinda fast this time around...

my impression. it's OK in the sense that i think it's like the minimal thingy they do. if they want, i believe they could do more, but well, even as it is... ok la...

i guess they know there's a good chance many of these pre-orders are probably scalpers anyway and not fans... so maybe that's why the compensation isn't something that would make me really happy.

but ya... from what i can see posted on the SME site... it's ok la... i have no issues to pick with it.

just dem... i threw away my dem receipts just 2 weeks back la... i still have the SP boxes... i wonder if they will accept... i bring the SP boxes back to them.

will i recommend friends to Samsung? after this fiasco, the things we all had to go thru... and just the bare minimum compensation, i'd probably advice ppl to consider something else. there are other good and cheaper brands out there... unless mati2 mau guna s-pen la...

agreed... only reason why i went with telco for note7 is due to the very attractive pricing for a NEW product.

telco bundles for old phones is usually not worth it.

i was doing some research on the phones i could get... and ya... really... other than S and Note series... Samsung somehow will put something really off on their other lines...

as you mentioned... A9... no LED notification (though some are recommending use of apps that will use screen for notification).

and... A series also considered high end... why can't they put wireless charging... hahaha.. i wanna reuse all freebies, if possible.

right now, wireless charging stand becomes a stand for my note2. yup, using it again... wiped and reinstalled my stuff... battery should be coming today... so, i'm all good.

caps lock broken?

and seriously... this is Note7 thread. just use the phone + apps to buy la... before returning the phone.

for this considering affordable phone options, good video.. sub USD 400 :

new permanent ban...

if ppl dun follow news closely, they might no realise this is second recall..

and till now, I've not received call or sms advising me to stop using Note7.

I'm surprised Samsung Malaysia didn't blast sms to all..they should already have our details

iinm, car output not stable..

not sure how good is car charger at regulating the voltage, etc..

haha.. true. he can't claim no social media since posted on Facebook.

but still, I'm surprised Samsung Malaysia didn't blast sms... they should issue warning via sms, asking ppl to power down the phone..

nothing wrong with blasting sms. it's not that expensive compared to this whole fiasco.

plus, it's in line with putting customer safety first.

they are calling ppl anyway. so, regardless of whether phone number is updated or whether is present owner or not, at least they try..

sms can say sth like please power down phone and use another phone. customer service will contact you soon to explain.

person who shared the fb post..

it was a screenshot, right?

see the green battery icon?

a few days back, I mentioned a scenario.. driving 100kmh on highway and Note7 catches fire.

someone said sth about highly improbable or sth?

I guess as long as not happening to self, one will think one is lucky and invincible...
