Dont bother with the smaller one, once you get used to big screens, there is no turning back.

You ordered from the right company. BBTECH is not giving away the free HK speaker.

You've ordered yours, bro?

No bro. With only the speaker as a freebie and I heard stocks are still aplenty, it might be a bit hard to dispose of the unit later. No advantage on a preorder unit like extended 1 year warranty and 1 year screen protection unlike last year's.

Agreed, for me personally I just need a discount considering how fast the value drops. Would have gone for it had there been a preorder discount, coupled with the Qoo10 voucher would have made it easier to dispose later.
*
Nevermind the discount, but the extended warranty and 1 year screen protection would be more important as a selling point.

I’m not sure the HK speakers are that easy to dispose of to convert to cash, otherwise they wouldn’t be giving it away as a free gift.
I had the Note 3 too bro, but I had quite a number issues after a year and it drove me nuts biggrin.gif

Other than aesthetics, it wont serve much purpose. laugh.gif

There is one iPhone user who will always say Samsung lag and his reference point the old S3. These people doesn't know Android had improved tremendously especially in last 3 years. I would say all the high end Androids easily match and some even better in no lag n smoothness vs ip7+, ip8+
I still have ip8+ as secondary phone while main one is always an Android
*
Ah... the Iphone threads are full of these people. When we call them Ifags, they get upset. laugh.gif

Anyway, I do agree. Current androids are already up to the level of Iphones in terms of fluidity and slickness. Not to mention, some could be better. But android still needs to improve on a few security issues and also app developers on androids needs to do better.

Actually 64gb internal is more than enough. Even my s8 and note 8 haven't reach limit still got 20gb++ spare.

Better you spend rm200 on 128gb sd card.

Note 8

S8+

I would think otherwise. With the Rm200, it would be wiser to get the 128Gb instead. Nowadays, you can install apps on your SD card it would be better to have a larger internal storage. Like mentioned, android developers and phone manufacturers are slowly doing away with sd cards.

Cause there's nothing new in this S9, not much of an upgrade from S8 apart from some improvements. The design is still the almost similar. Until they come out with some groundbreaking designs and changes to the device, which I have a feeling they are saving it for the X, then perhaps we will start seeing not enough stocks problems by then. haha!
*
To be fair, its hard to improve on an already great product. So improvements will trickle in, though slowly and marginally. If you are upgrading from older models such as the Note 3, S4, S5s like many of those here, then there would be huge improvements. I personally dont see a point of upgrading if you are already on the S8/S8+.

SME knows their unit will still sell like hotcakes in Malaysia given by S8 and N8 record. Hence no pressure on them selling without freebies. If pre order suck then maybe they will counter during roadshow but some ppl saying pre order pun dah many SOLD OUT, so they already are in good business now
I understand your point here but maybe you wanna post it in your iPhone threads wheere you'll gain supports and not here to reduce toxicity. Appreciate it man. Cheers!

Ignore the trolls. Every time there is a new launch, this kuli will show up with a dupe account to stir shit here. andrewtst Kuli is back yo!

Or go for the official launch where you will get the same or even more freebies.

Me here. I have already got used to no fingerprint sensors in the front. Makess the phone look so much better. Moreover who needs fingerprint sensors when you have facial recognition.

maybe he wants to use the speaker but dont want the phone. LOL
lol true.. somehow i've always preferred the Note series over S series since Note is more refined after the new release from S series.
*
Ya... especially considering the size of both S9+ and the Note 9 wont be of much difference. Might as well go for the Note.

QUOTE(attw @ Mar 4 2018, 11:05 AM)
Well, if he bought using Qoo10 voucher then he scalped the speaker AND also earn RM400 laugh.gif

Nevermind lar. Let people cari makan abit lar. laugh.gif But I would reckon not since there is an oversupply of stocks. Scalping will only happen when there is not enough supply + high demand.
