Can't be too careful nowadays. What can they do? Swap out ori charger, headphones, cable with RM1 OEM versions? Anything else?
Also the hassle of returning them. I think many ppl will just accept it due to this.
Maybe, swap ori with fake. And true, returning the items is quite hassle. Seller said return it to Lazada, but Lazada system need 5 days for Seller response and they didn't really help much.

If you bought from a legit seller and it's ori with SME warranty? Yes, it's normal that they break the seal.. It's for warranty registration purposes.. Shouldn't be so, but it's so. Same happened with me and if not all who bought the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 during the pre-order stages. Both watch and phone had seals broken and warranty registered. Till date no issue. If your seller did the same, you should have gotten an sms directly from Samsung's warranty system about it being registered and covered. If so? Check the IMEI..confirm a it matches and don't sweat it.
Yes. I didn't like it. But it's what it is. Sellers say it is a measure imposed by Samsung Malaysia. Normal users like we can't simply register our devices any longer.

Seller mentioned to me they broke the seal for warranty registration, but I'm afraid they swap something. Upon checking with
Samsung Malaysia Electronics (SME) Sdn. Bhd., distributor said the seal shouldn't be broken. Check the phone IMEI it is a original phone by Samsung Malaysia.
Is it because the warranty book with sticker inside the box?
