I think Samsung should know better now looking at the poor sales of the much anticipated Iphone X by Apple. It proves to show that no matter how high the anticipation, how well played your marketing strategy is and how your branding works, if you price your product too high without much innovation amd improvements to it, consumers will not play into tune. Simple to put it, consumers are not sheep anymore.

If it gets listed in Qoo10 and if the pre-order features some discount just like the Note 8, then don’t need to wait a month, haha. Some of us bought the Note 8 at 3,178 with Qoo10’s voucher at launch
True. Did you know that Brighstar, Official distributor for Oneplus Malaysia actually delayed the stocks to Qoo10 sellers because the seller accepted prerorders with the Rm300 discounts. So buyers got their phones 2 week after launch and the sellers could not get new stocks anymore. Not sure if Samsung will do the same to their dealers this round.
Hahaha - I doubt you’ll be able to resist. Anyways I too may stay away from Android flagships this year, maybe just play around with the midrange ones.
For android, Im taking a rest for now. Im waiting for the plus size iphone X or XI. Hopefully its going to be good.
According to serial leakster @evleaks, the Galaxy S9/S9+ would be priced at 841 EUR (about RM4,036) and 997 EUR (about RM4,785) respectively. It sounds like a staggering amount but it’s common to see higher prices in Europe when compared to Malaysia. As a comparison, the Galaxy Note8 is priced at 999 EUR (about RM4,796) but it retails at only RM3,999 in Malaysia. Meanwhile, the Galaxy S8/S8+ were officially announced in Malaysia at RM3,299 and RM3,699 respectively, and it’s recently slashed by RM600.
Read bro... read. Don't shoot only. Told you many times this is not K.

Ok la tu, iPhones have looked the same since iPhone 6
Bila cakap Ifag, marah pulak.
Anyway, no breakthroughs or innovation worth mentioning on the S9/S9+ which was already expected of Samsung. The S8/S8+ was already a good product, hard to improve something which was already very good.

According to Yoon Soo Kim, the President & Managing Director of Samsung Malaysia Electronics, the new flagship devices will be made available at these prices:
Galaxy S9 64GB: RM 3299
Galaxy S9+ 64GB: RM 3699
Galaxy S9+ 128GB: RM 3999
Galaxy S9+ 256GB: RM 4399
Three colors will be made available for each devices including the Midnight Black, Coral Blue, and Lilac Purple. Pre-order customers will also received a Harman Kardon Onyx speaker.
I don't think we'll ever see another 4000mAh battery from Samsung in a flagship after the Note 7 fiasco. And also they will claim their newer processors are more energy efficient. It remains to be seen.
I would prefer them to improve on their tw, especially on the battery drain part. My Note 8 still have yet to get oreo and it drains around 15% battery life overnight with everything turned on.

Oh wow SME only give Harman Kardon mini speaker for PO? I see it will be a trend from now on from SME. No more % discount. I bought the bigger one for RM400 2 years ago, and this mini priced at RM699. I will pass this time and will wait for Limited/Special Edition. Maybe around June.
I strike u a deal bro. I buy the phone, sell you the box for Rm400. How? Deal?
