FYI:
P1 2GB was RM1,199 last year

So, P2 at extra RM100 is a bargain to me. They managed to "control" the price despite of currency rate of Ringgit today vs Ringgit in Nov 2015. I was intrigue to know the intro is RM1,299. I thought RM1,499 to have similar price bracket with Huawei Nova Plus and ZenFone 3.

However, other manufacturers, the intro price has jumped between RM200 - RM300. Look at Asus ZenFone 2 vs 3; Honor 7 vs 8; OnePlus 2 vs 3 vs 3T; iPhone, Nexus vs Pixel, Sammy, HTC, LG, Sony, ZTE, etc... almost all vendors (except Xiaomi and LeEco) mark-up the intro price beyond my "expectation", including Motorola themselves. Moto Z Play is suppose to be RM1,599 but launched at RM1,999 and now drop to RM1,799....

Even in India market, only Xiaomi sustain the low-price strategy...LeEco is planned to walk-out from the party...India market is super-huge...very high volume and yet they decided to mark-up the intro price...


So, in Malaysia, the market volume is small, if vendor mark-up the intro price, I just say "Sorry... I'll choose to keep my phone or trade-in with Xiaomi....". But LeMoto P2 is "special" to me in terms of intro/launching price and my needs of longevity...

Any other devices that has close spec to Dual active 4G+3G SIMs + 4GB RAM + 5.5" Super AMOLED screen + Sony camera sensor + Texas Instrument Audio + Android Mallow out-of-the-box.....? The nearest "similar" contender would be ZTE Axon 7 Mini (but Snap617...it's the rejected SoC of the year 2015/16)

x pasti coz directly from lenovo supplier.

even my a9 pro only got sme delivery order, supplier cakap dlm rm1.4-1.6k for staff/special price or something naming, i assume lenovo should be less rm100-400 if special pricing

normal retail should be 1.1k-1.3k

ah thanks!

felt the urge to replace my oneplus one. it's still running good but i need newer gpu for gaming + more battery life.

Errr... GPU for gaming and reliable battery life is Xiaomi Mi Max...period! Unless you want to try Super AMOLED delicious colours.... When you test drive the demo unit, put your OnePlus next to P2...watch the screen carefully... as well as sound too... the Texas Instrument Audio module is for VR...

damn, brb reading reviews. but i don't like MIUI hergh

Oh yeah.. the "silly" MIUI ... unless you flash to Xiaomi.EU ROM... anyway, all the best to test drive P2 and let us know your thoughts....

battery life on mi max should be not much diff with a9 pro or even p2 imo

but gaming aspect, should have some differences imo

u can flash to other rom on mi max

for some reason most of my kwn (who did buy xioami due cheap price+good spec) normal user dun bother much about it, for them they just use other launcher.

In Malaysia, my hypothesis of "Benar-Benar Celik Peranti" is 10 out of 100... if "Agak-agak Celik Peranti" is 20 out of 100 and "Buta Peranti" is 70 out of 100...

No..cannot push the root companion via adb commands due to bootloader is locked....Anyway, it seems that GSAM app is not fully compatible with P2... it easily go wonky... i'll try to uninstall and reinstall for the next cycle...

well normal user mcm my wife using her note 2+zerolemon with the max storage full max is 70%, she did use the phone for 3 years lag free b4 migrated to RNPro 3 and then Mi Max

This P2 longevity is twice of P780...

GPS is yummy...can easily recommend to all Uber and GrabCar pilots out there...
