First they pissed off the Note7 PRE ORDER owner, then they pissed off the S8 PRE ORDER owner to praise other potential S8 buyer. Not sure if you would call this a good move. Maybe good to you, but it is definitely a bad one for the company.

Abang, you are new to the Note 7 fiasco? go read some threads and understand it while I grown lazy to explain it over and over again.

Or you can pre order through Telco. They are the second best alternative and some telco (Digi in my case) will Courier the phone to you, the only catch is that it locks your contract for 24months. Personally I will omit Senheng/lazada/11street/etc for that after the Note 7 fiasco. They are simply not up to the mark to handle it if anything bad happened.

Agree. It is too naive when you think you can take advantage of bank. They got a whole team of financial analyst vs you. There is always the catch in their Terms and Conditions to protect their interest.

just full payment with CC. you earn CC points wa... carry [RM] all over 3k run here run there higher risk ler.

So no 1st hour kiasu open box from you huh

You can't put iSheep's logic onto andriod.

Dont be fooled. Even with the Sapphire Crystal it is still not scratch proof. There's lots of material can do damages to a sapphire crystal. Ceramic/Tungstan Carbide/etc. Imagine your dad's ROLEX undergo such action = GG.com

There are variables to consider in everyday life, of course. If you strike a sapphire with a hammer, given sufficient force, it will crack or shatter. The iron in the hammer is no where near as hard as corundum, but every natural material obviously has exploitable limits, otherwise we wouldn't even be able to utilize sapphire, tungsten, diamond, or ceramic for the things we do. Nothing is indestructible. What you're buying in a sapphire crystal is a greater degree of crack/shatter/scratch resistance to which other glass materials cannot compare.

In reality, there are FEW things that CANNOT damage your sapphire crystal given the correct circumstances. But if it were so easy that everyone could do it, the price upgrade for a sapphire crystal would be futile. Sapphire crystals offer a much greater resistance to everyday wear and tear. They are not impervious and shouldn't be thought to be so; it's not fair, since nothing meets that criterion. But don't be afraid that the world around you is out to get your watch. Sapphire is a resilient, durable, robust material, and you were wise to go that route. But like any fine jewelry, there are just certain steps to be taken in caring for a Rolex. That's not to say anyone's incompetent; stuff happens.

Anything can scratch the sapphire crystal if hit the "right" angle.... even diamond can be chipped.... just be more careful... cheers!

LYN's news.

S8 is NOT a phablet. S8 is just a typical 5.1" standard phone that elongated to 18:9 screen ratio. its body size is not much different than S7.

S8+ is comparable to S7E and it can be considered as phablet. It is not huge too.
