Samsung should just FOC DEX instead.

Personally Im not that interested with S8 but I really want to see what it is capable of with the 20 shader core G71 GPU. Huawei Kirin 960 already beat Samsung to A73 + G71 but when I looked at the history of Kirin SOC, seem like their GPU always sucks because they are using way less shader core. I was about to buy a Mate 8 since it is on sale right now but when I looked at the GPU, it was about on par with my S6E despite using the newer Mali T880. Exynos 7420 has 8 shader core but slower T760 but Huawei decided with 4 shader core but faster T880.

No foldable phone from Samsung this year. Confirmed by Samsung Engineer.

Bezeless display is doing very good for Samsung Display.

Kirin 960 is just a bit faster than Oxynos 8890 but much more expensive (P10 plus vs S7E).
Although Huawei P10 is a decent phone, I still think it's too expensive. Should not be 2499.

If irenic's leaked price is true, then P10 Plus is not appealing at all.

However mainstream people may differ. A few people asked me regarding what phone to buy, I can say most people want to avoid the Samsung edge display. They are scared of breaking it...So it may backfire. And the Leica brand marketing strategy is really effective. Everyone is talking about it.

But kirin 960 is 16nm
S8 using 8895 10nm and running apps and game will not heat like s7 edge
Performance sure better then kirin
And malaysia dont have DEX i think... because too expensive...

You don't get it at all. Even S7e slows down when overheat. Kirin 960 had A73 which is what Snapdragon 835 and Exynos 8895 has. It's all about sustained performance. If you only do benchmark and not gaming, then you won't know what it's all about. You want higher peak performance or higher sustained performance over a longer period of time.
Look beyond the process node. It's the same architecture inside 960 and 8895. Yes, it's will be slightly faster due to it being on 10nm but Huawei planning the same on 970.

haiz
if have 6gb is better
but too bad our country dont have 6gb

okeyla. but this one is not confirm ya. They are still in the initial stage of discussion. normally 2 or 3 days before pre-order starts only they finalize the price.

GS8 @ RM3199
GS8+ @ RM3599

The thing is, my informer is also not sure yet. The teams are still discussing. On contrary to what most people said here in regards to Samsung Malaysia wants to gain more profit, actually SME wants the price to be as lower as it can to make the phone more 'reachable' to mass, but there are lots of factor and a principal they have to oblige thus they cant finalize yet.

If its 3599.

S7e now is about rrp2499.

Rm1000 difference.

I say s7e is a bargain now.

GS8+ @ RM3599

the price are not bad, but I expecting s8 RRP is 3099
don't forget we have weak currency
but I still saw s7 edge RRP is 3099

If this is the price, then I start itchy already... awesome price if true!

huh
i though they say got rm 500 discount or cut off rm 500 price
haha but not dare go for s8+ cause the screen size and battery 3500mah
worry cant last long 1 day

I need to see in actual S8+, from video it seems a bit too long.

Probably S8 is enough.

it is not that really long i manage to play with s8+ during my visit at vodafone, westfield.. the height is just like the iphone 7 plus, but it really comfortable at my hand. i thought i'm holding the galaxy s8 until the lady told me the set is actually s8+.

But still prefer the S8..
