You will see Samsung S8 preorder coming soon. on the Samsung S8 screen picture it shows 11 April, 10 am as the time.

So it is very likely that the pre-order will open at 10 AM

I am also more a Note-series fan but my Note 3 really can't keep up with the recent custom ROM adopted from S7 and Note 7. Even taking a phone call will lag. rclxub.gif So will get the S8+ first and if Note 8 offer much more, will switch back to Note 8 later this year.

I noticed there's another pic from somewhere else which showed the Back button is on the left. I hope it means we can flip the position in settings.

yes, the position of the 3 "buttons" can be customised. But Samsung users are used to back button in the right. biggrin.gif

My favorite is always back at right...As far as possible I will always choose it to be on the right if there is such a choice to select eg on all HW , LG, Oppo, Nexus, OP phones. To me is best natural position for me as I always use right index finger on phone while holding it on my left hand
*
Exactly. I assume you are using your left ear to take the call too then. I can only use my left ear for phone conversation. Right ear always hear not so clear and natural, dun know why. laugh.gif

also due to the fact that samsung is following the footsteps of apple.  charging premium prices for its phones. 

RM3000++ for a flagship phone? 
other flagship brand phone not even near the 3000 price point. 

samsung knows alot of samsung fanboys will go after every single samsung flagship phones.  they mark up the price to gain more profit.

lol.... definitely not as much as Apple fanboy's fanatics and Apple's markup. Else Apple won't be so cash rich... the figures say for itself. laugh.gif

yes, i notice the shipping cost but he said share the shipping cost, so i assume USD9 + USD13.25/2 x 4.5 + RM8 poslaju = RM78.31. biggrin.gif

go and survey all samsung phone users.  you will be surprised that they dont even use those features.  or even they dont even know what extra features samsung has, LOL. 

im not saying samsung is bad or what. 

im just saying the price for samsung flagship is just marketing gimmick.    of so many samsung phone users around the world.  how many user do actually use their functions or features. 

yes their price point correspond to those extra functions and features no other phone makers has.  however, do we really need all these in a flagship phone? 

for me  i will get the best phone that suits me best.  and will not waste extra cash for that extra features that i wont be using. 

my point is, alot of samsung phone users are just like apple fans.  they follow what people use and just buy the phone instead of actually considering the purpose of the phone.
*
dun put your value on top of ppl's head. that's only your view point. How you know ppl dun even use those features? Yes, we can just buy a Samsung A7 or C9 Pro or whatever without those features at cheaper price.

It's good you know what phone suit you best but we also know what phones suit us best, so dun judge us and say that we dun know what we are doing. I use both Android and IOS devices and I know what pro and cons of each system and I believe a lot of lowyat members here are tech savvy ppl and know too.

Sorry, i dun like to argue but i just can't stand ppl thought they are the smartest around. doh.gif Yes, you think you are the smartest around and it may probably true but dun assume others are not as smart. wink.gif

Hello, does anyone knows the pre order free wireless charging dock is the same as the singapore pre order wireless charging dock?
And is this dual sim or only SD Card support?

thanks~!

i think SG one is the latest convertible version. What we will be getting in Msia is the old model.

No, i do know there is shipping cost but base on my calculation, if we really only share shipping cost (no profit), not so expensive. Sorry, din notice you are running a business here. sweat.gif

I doubt the pre order will be sold out as fast as previous Note7 mainly due to its unattractive offer. Samsung should also least offer a 10% discount! And despite all their previous indications, no special offers at all to ex Note7 users. The weakened MR leading to higher price could be a deterrent too
Well at least this time it will less attractive to those who just buy n sell merely to make a profit
*
yeah!! I hope so too. Going to grab it myself with mobile devices once I touch down at HK airport around 11am tomorrow morning. Finger crossed still have thousands of units around. wink.gif

I believe ppl from SG might come over and buy.
Especially those Malaysian that earn SGD.
Cheapest S8 in the world? cool2.gif
*
but SG ppl get their S8 much earlier, i doubt they will wait until May 4 for Msia pre-order collection. By then the hype already die down in SG. laugh.gif

the idea of getting the S8 from Spore did flash through my mind but even after deducting the GST, it is still so much expensive than SME offer and not much freebies too although our freebies sucks but better than nothing. We get the lowest price S8 (may be in the world?) thumbsup.gif

Btw, browse thru the pre-order page of Samsung Singapore for S8, they are so much more organised. You can make an appointment at particular hour at particular branch to collect the phone. And surprisingly their pre-order can last quite a while, maybe they are allocated more units?
