Hi TS, please add the following info into the first page for the potential buyers' convenience. Thank you.
1.  Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ media conference will be held on 4th May. Venue is unknown at this moment, but most likely Sunway Pyramid/Midvalley/KLCC.
2. Roadshow (early birds promotion)

http://www.samsung.com/my/offer/s8-s8plus-roadshows/
3. Trade-up campaign

http://www.samsung.com/my/offer/s8-s8plus-tradeup/
Not sure why this time KLCC is excluded from the roadshow. It's a bummer since KLCC is much easier for access.
*
kinda sad and feel unfair that the roadshow freebies & 50% discount given is as good as those Pre-order..
actually i wanna buy the Gear360 also..

Any one here going to queue at Sunway Pyramid ?
can tumpang buy Gear360 ?

Well I am going but I am not planning to get the Gear360. Is it good? hmm.gif
*
what time u going Sunway Pyramid ?
help me to buy please.. can pay u extra abit..

u can find US people review the Gear360 in youtube,
quite alot of good comment, but provided u like to shoot video and post it online..
Actually i buy it mainly use for Car Driving Recorder,
coz few days ago met in an accident, now realize it important to have a cam-recorder in car when driving,
so this 360 degress video recorder is perfect,
when going vacation, can bring it out too..

What's inside Starter Kit for launch day? Same as the pre-order's Starter Kit?
*
yes, it's same with pre-order one..
quite sad that samseng treat their Pre-oder customer like that..
i standby at their website 2 hours before pre-order open..

at least samseng should open up the 50% discount for Pre-order customer also..

Please send message to their official FB account demanding th same discount be offered.  I already did so.  tongue.gif  Hopefully enough of us making noise will make them give the same offer.
My guess is maybe divided into morning and afternoon session?

difficult to brain this.

2500 lifestyle tax exemption for next year.. (including buying phone, laptop, book, badminton racket...)
depend on your tax bracket..
if your tax rate is 16% then 2500 x 16% = 400
so u pay 400 lesser tax..

when s9 release, sell the s8 at 2700,
2700 + 400 + top up few hundred then can get s9 again..
then claim next year tax agian.. continue the looping until government take away the lifestyle tax exemption..

so just pay few hundred every year, u got to use the latest flagship, change new 1 every year..
cheaper than shitty Maxis zerolution...

It's not extreme at all. You know what. Some people actually take leave and collect their pre-order unit. To me, that's more extreme. Haha. biggrin.gif
Hard to say. Until that time, the price will be much higher depends on our country's economy. Plus there may be no discount at all based on the offer of S8.
*
true, i'm one of the person take 1 full day leave to collect s8..
but samseng disappoint me by giving the 5th May early bird better promo 50% discount.. damn...

I just turn it off completely
WiFi problem? Do elaborate  sad.gif
Kingston always spoil on me, they never last
All screen warranty only first year, 2 year extended warranty does not cover screen replacement
If for in car recording, better just get a dash cam as 24/7 recording a Gear 360 file is going to be big and a hassle to clear it everyday. Plus, if 360 you're going to see yourself too in the recording, not just the road, lol
*
that's is the purpose want a 360 degree recording,
always kena people bang my car from the side and behind..
btw, the new gear360 upgraded with "loop recording" d, so no need to manually delete..
