Well not much negative comments on this phone this time?
Well there are always pro n con in any phone including the renown iPhone.
I will wait for price drop this time before buying it. I had always been one of the early ones on preorder
Looking at trend past 2 years I am sure a discounted rm300 to 400 is possible

I'm torn, I need a new phone asap since my Nexus 5x died 2 days back. I pre-ordered the s9+ through digi.

Can someone help explain how does Qoo10's deal work?
*
When you checked out you can see the various vouchers . Just download it and add into the coupon section
If you need rm400 try do it at 10am. Limited amounts offer and usually taken up very fast
Or you can download voucher first by clicking on digital offer banner and you make purchases later on. Discounted vouchers expired on same day

yes you are right!

unlike old days where samsung lags.. now 2015 onwards samsung never lags anymore

those who keep saying lag are most probably the old touchwiz user and probably never bothered to look back then in their mind it is still a "laggy" OS

should probably try again to experience the overhauled new samsung touchwiz (Samsung Experience now) and they may change their perspective on samsung nod.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

How old are you? 15 year old kid? From this point it seems like you are just making baseless statement.. u think only u ever used iphone here is it? Although i don't have iphone amymore now after i passed it to my wife since her iphone died, but i used it a lot along side with android since many years, now i still have ipad mini and ipod 6th, not too mention i own iMac and Macbook altogether, i can say i'm an avid apple user, so i know apple environment pretty well, so i strongly say your statement is baseless and rubbish.. go get a life..

Benchmarks don’t mean anything. As long as the phone works for you with no lags running the apps that you frequently use, then I don’t think you should worry too much about this type or article.
*
Such benchmarks only for tech geeks. Most normal users will not see or feel any difference
Our senses limit us to how fast we can feel or see
It only gives a feel good factor to those using a higher powered chipset.

Means what. Only phone bought during roadshow?

Yes. Offers during roadshow are often different from preorder. Don't expect best of both

So I supposed it would be same too

if the phone is covered with casing, will the wireless charger still work? Do we need to take off the case before put on the wireless charger?

It should work as in previous S8, Note8

Just go naked, I've been using my note 8 for around half a year without screen protectors only with UAG plasma case. I tried a few SP initially, after trying a few and gave up till now still no scratches, not even hairline ones. Even dropped a few times. I usually put my phone in a dedicated pocket, but sometimes i do forget and put them in my keys pocket but so far still no scratches at all. I asked a few friends who are using note 8 without SP all too have very minimal to none hair line scratches

We payed so much for the display, I think we should just enjoy it and not get ripped off by SP industry. Just my personal opinion.
*
+1. I just like you simply hate any type of SP on my phones. Had tried once TG on previous Note but took it off after 2 weeks. I only use SP on Xperia phones as the anti shatter film easily scratch
I had been warned umpteen times about not using any SP. So far in my past 8 years of using so many phones I see no need of SP. I won't let all the talk of possible accident damaging the dispay affect me.
My flipcases are good enough to protect the display

I hardly buy from oversea, so which method is more worth & more safe? Using Paypal or direct Malaysia CC during checkout from ebay?
*
I always use PayPal - is more secure and refunds are guaranteed in case of non delivery or cancellations. Just Google PayPal for more info

Hope this doesn't really turn out
After experiencing both ipX and ip8+ in the store I chose the ip8+. It doesn't mean what Apple chose to do is always good . I know many other Android phones had too copy Apple and follow it just to keep up with the latest trend!!

It surprising as apple indirectly announced iPhone x is phail product
Perhaps others manufacturer think it was mainly due to it high price points

Uncle Benny, u got buy s9+?
I'm curious about the battery life. Seeing a few YouTuber claim to have 6h ost with <8% left
Was waiting for v30 official in msia and users at v30 thread including frutie able to achieve 6h with >10%
Afaik, flagship level as of now jz v30 (5T?) able to have sot 6h with >10%
*
No interest on S9+
My op5t n Note8 : average SOT 6 to 7 hours. Happy with them.
Just bought a used Note8 few days back. Sold off my Note FE for it. Best Note I had used to date
