Damn the poison. Maybe will get this phone due to free Gear Sport. Essentially I only add around RM600 to RM800 if buy from Qoo10. RM250 coupon + RM800 Gear Sport sell off + RM1800 sell Note8 which still in warranty and cashback from Qoo10. Thinking to get the Ocean Blue colour. Is it nice?
Ya, I'm thinking either sell the Gear Sport for 700, or sell the phone for 3000
ok, I ordered the phone last night...after 1 hour, the store sms me to collect the item, quite surprised btw. rushed to the store....picked it up...bammm, I think I am the first one in this country got the phone lol...

Really like the fact that we're getting an out-of-the-box clear case (VERY important because usually the better looking accessories aren't released so soon) and another pair of AKG earphones. Gone are the days of throwing away the earphones.

read in reddit...some aussie guy said he ordered the 128gb and got auto upgraded to 512gb and got a free tablet thrown in as well! best pre-order gift so far.
Lol, just pre-ordered a blue 128GB at Qoo10. Offer seems to good to pass, RM3,699 possibly cheapest in the world, got RM250 voucher, shopback RM74 cashback, that's it la bbb.

for real!? That sounds too good to be true but good for him. It's like early christmas & birthday!
No bad experience with the free case that came with the N8. Probably also because I did not use it for long?
Have you guys looked at the new official accessories for N9? The one with the stand looks pretty cool.

Bro, I'm quite concern about the dual sim, as I'm travelling between SG & MY weekly. Mind to share, is the memory card using different slot? or it's hybrid slot?

about free upgrade its true, during pre-order you will get FREE upgrade to 512gb, but price is too high compare to Malaysia. Basic 128gb model is priced AUD1499 (=RM4470) and 512gb version is priced AUD1799 (=RM5366).
Bro, I'm quite concern about the dual sim, as I'm travelling between SG & MY weekly. Mind to share, is the memory card using different slot? or it's hybrid slot?
hybrid slot; means you can't use 2 sim card and extra memory card at same time

it has 128gb internal. if not enough go for 512gb.
Uh oh. It seems the preorder website has crashed. I csnnot sccess it via my iPad.
It took it so long before the sites crashed. I remember during the previously PO's, it crashed in the early stages. Guessing sales must be slow or they upgraded to cope with the heavy traffic.
I may not even go to Note X if there is nothing interesting.
Of course the S-pen is handy but note 9's s pen features are more gimmicky than anything. Definitely can live without.
Note X should be the foldable phone
Anyways phone tech has been pretty stagnant for the past 2 or 3 years d. Last years slim bezel was the new thing but this year is the “S” year where they just incrementally upgrade. Good for people who didn’t upgrade last year. I think phones these days should last at least 2 years unless hand super itchy to upgrade This note 9 is a great upgrade for those who withheld from last years offering. Probably S9/S9+ is a good buy too if prices drop some more Next year should have something big

Yes, I am holding back till next year to await the foldable Note 10/X or at least with a on-screen finger print sensor.
the main reason I upgraded from note 8 is the battery..4000mah is standard for flagship android nowadays...gave my note 8 to my father...now I'm on QHD all day...
Hahha. Yep it can be opened on my Note8. Good troll Samsung.
Nah, use a different browser like Firefox or Chrome. You can still access it, but not with Safari. It could be that they block Safari from accessing the pre-order page haha, or Safari can't support a plugin or something, needed to access the page.
There was only Smart Gadget this morning, but now Premium Gadget has entered the fray No need kua, it's just RM 5.90. Besides, Maggi is unhealthy, hahaha...
Hey bro u oso PO from qoo10?
can u check ur address at order status, is it in full or just poscode, city and state ?
LOLz.......seems like we do have fence sitters who are contemplating. Just Do It! la Bro!
I have 5 hours and 42 minutes left
Anyways, that's my so-called pattern, hahaha. Will think long and hard before finally pulling the trigger. But I'm more or less 70% more likely to do so than not at this point
Exynos SOT battery only great if start using from 100%.
BUT If user moves around alot from A to B to C, during standby/idle, be prepared for serious abnormal battery drain, my Note8 drains around 8 ~ 10% in this situation. Inside my house during idle it drains 3% every 1hr 45mins. The drain is even more serious if i cincai install apps from Play Store. Hav to reset & wipe data many times & carefully install apps that i urgently used only end of rant. thxbye & fcuk exynoshit
Lol Stupid plan If now I on MOP 158 Sure I upgrade to 188 Difference between both is RM1300 One month I pay additional RM30, 24 months only RM720 extra, less RM1300, I still save RM580

You sure? Mine just got a whole motherboard replacement and battery for free and the problem that I having just like you just gone. Now it only drain around 3 to 6% after fully charged around 11 pm. Unplugged until 8 am. Sometimes it is better to refer to Samsung CS on your problem.
malaysia always get exynos. US doesn't allow exynos in their country for security reason, so Samsung distributes exynos to those not so important countries.
Dunno the SC nearby my place got so generous like your SC or not ?
My SC so far is the best! They don’t ask much. I complain about constant battery drain and they said just replace the whole motherboard. Then I politely ask them to replace the battery also and they obliged with no asking. Maybe you can try ask your nearest SC.
Just done my pre order, can't wait now. anyone can suggest which casing and screen protector best for Samsung?
The best glass SP is Whitestone Dome but I cannot confirm it is available ald or not. Or other alternative is Clear Coat. But not so good for S Pen travel on the screen. For casing I have always used UAG Monarch cases. The best case ever made by them.
How is the battery life? Is it a huge improvement compared to Note 8? I know on paper it should be much better, but the real life situation could be different....

Seremban Terminal 1. Good customer service. Fast too. My problem solved within 2 hours. That includes water resistance testing, change motherboard and battery.

S-Pen needs to be charged. Sounds a little stupid! Previous gen of S-Pen needs charging?
> Charged S-Pen only for remote features. > Pen features would still work even when running out of power. > 30 minutes of battery life for pen. > It charges to full in 40 seconds once back inside phone.
I think that is already the best design for the S-Pen if you ask me.

u can't reason with nitpick .... they find everything is flaw without understand how thing work.
Blue match with yellow pen is new thing but not that match as looks weird Bronze color is nice but you'll feel bored Black color is normal color but you won't feel bored look at it.
I used to buy S8 grey, the end 2 months I already bored The end I stick to black even Note 8 is black

I think somebody need to experience note 9 on hands only can give opinion on battery performance?
And this phone just launched in a day.
4000mAh definitely better than S8/S8+, S9/S9+ and Note 8. Whether it can last for the whole day as claimed/published would still be questionable till put into real test.

i think last one day should't be a major problem la ..... if can't last one day, than me kena kau kau (i have 5/7/8 note in hand), i buy cause of battery and good prices ...

Actually bro @afiqsabri already got his phone in Arab Saudi today and using it now. That's why i asked him about his first hand experience. You could check few previous pages. Anyway, I guess he is still busy with playing on his phone.

there is no a perfect phone...every year all manufacturer will produce new SOC and chipsets....it is how the economy works....
Agreed, kudos to samsung for giving among the best overall package in a flagship phone. Till today my 32gb s7edge is still running good...just only my hand is itchy to try something new.
I will wait till i get my hands on a demo unit this time to decide further or wait for any trade up program by samsung to poison me further.
How do you find the new Spen so far? Aside from the camera, i find the other functions of that bluetooth to be quite gimmicky.

trust me, my hands have been itching every year...lol...just go for it...then save 300/month again and get note 10 next year....
Mind to share what bug you were referring to? Seldom hear Apple user complaint.
Where do i start
Random freeze of apps like insta and even safari. Camera app hang The app screen format lari (especially safari at the notch part) Lag in games Sub par battery life
Aside from the os being unstable and not optimised (YET) for the ipx, the phone is good in terms of build quality, display, etc etc.
Most dont complain because they need to justify that 5k price tag hahaha, but trust me, who used both android and apple, when i say that s9+'s software is more refined compared to ios in ipx, in which ios12 will greatly improve its performance, hopefully

I heard some 1 said with extra 32gb sd card... Is that true?
i dont know about SENQ offer. But i PO at senheng. Other than the same package SAMSUNG SME offer, i got extra 1 year warranty and 32GB EVO microsd card.

Saw some write up on the the Note 9 and which I thought aren't exactly new.
Note 8 could do this the day it was launched. A new feature on the Galaxy Note 9 that makes the S Pen more obviously useful is off-screen memo. Pop the S Pen out of the Note 9 when the screen is off and it'll automatically launch a note-taking feature.
Any 3rd party USB-C to HDMI adapter can already do this. DeX itself is easier to use on the Galaxy Note 9, as unlike on the Note 8 where a physical dock was required for it to work, this time round all you need is a simple HDMI dongle for the PC-like desktop experience.

*Ouch* Ifags on the IPX thread are going to rage because of this statement. Btw, I dont find it too bad. Definately not as bad as you mentioned. But yeah, I pretty dislike the small screen and the poor battery life.

1st statement.. yup, its not new.. even my note 5 able to do it..
2nd statement, its true. its a new function, where note 8 need a dex docking station... and note 9 is having a prebuild-dex within the phone. so, note 9 only need a cable. and not the whole station.
Not yet also. Pre-ordered via Samsung Malaysia website, but I quickly printed the receipt.
Upgrading from note 4 32gb to Note 9 512gb.
Your note 4 getting old & slow 😂 Same here, still using note 4. A bit reluctant to PO when i saw note 9 still using QC 2.0 same as note 4. Plus I will be missing the IR. Still thinking though.. 🤔
mind you the extra 1 year warranty is only for member. If you don't have membership, just spend RM12 to make one for yourself. Every ringgit u spent give u senheng loyalty points too.

something different from note8.
With Note 8, you don't have to use DEX
Should work for Samsung Note 8 or other Android. Just a hub to hook up your phone to TV to get desktop experience.
not same as dex.. the way you mention is same just mirroring if im not mistaken.
From what I understand, you hook up your Note 8 and keyboard and mouse to this gadget. Then this gadget hook up to TV via HDMI. And you have desktop experience. This gadget cost about RM 100 vs Dex RM300-400
From what I see on youtube, the only difference is, you can use the Dex Pad as mouse etc. So you may be laptop experience, not desktop experience.
Now with Note 9, you also have to hook up a keyboard and mouse to get desktop experience. That is why i say I don't see Note 9 as having new features.

Some third party adapters do let your phone to change into DeX Mode instead of mirroring. Usually the adapters need to support external power coming in to do so.
I know because my adapter for Nintendo Switch will activate DeX Mode on my S8 when plugged in with power, while will only be mirroring without power.

Dex is desktop experience and it is not a screen mirror, of course screen mirror also allow you to work on the external screen, but Dex is a desktop experience.
My note 8 I used Melopow, which allows the note 8 to turn into Dex more on external screen, but I would have to connect power to the melopow adaptor.
For note 9 presentation, it seems like no need to rely on special adaptor (hopefully) and that simple USB-C to HDMI could project Dex on to external screen.
Had trouble accessing Samsung preorder site . After selection I kept seeing icon circling. Had tried since yesterday Fedup with it I bought from Lazada instead - swift and easily done

See this video. Without the Dex, you can also get Dex logo on the TV screen. With so many connection, of course you need power source or else your phone battery will die fast.
And I am sure, even if Note 9 doesn't need Dex, you still need to connect a physical keyboard and mouse to get desktop experience, right?

you raised a good point, i started to think that, if we use that simple adaptor that Samsung introduced, USB-C to HDMI, how do we charge our phone then? erm...

Works well without power connecting to it, but after samsung launch the phone updates, now need power to connect to the adaptor to turn on Dex. Without power, just screen mirror.
If u are travelling, you either bring your laptop or Dex. And all hotel rooms have TV anyway.
does it have full office capability ... i dont think it has the X86 or X64 architect to do it, not that I know off...afaik...the office its still the *.APK

Anyone pre-ordered with Celcom yet? Can confirm it comes with gear sport or not?
i also order from celcom, don't think it come with those freebies since it didn't mention in the checkout & there is a huge price gap too.
but i found 1 thing interesting is in color selection i choose black, when it come to checkout it turn to blue color, i have try it 2 times with the same result, so don't care just proceed. Nowadays hard to get a flagship phone with such a price.

does it have full office capability ... i dont think it has the X86 or X64 architect to do it, not that I know off...afaik...the office its still the *.APK
well...i might try them tonight...
Don't think 100%. Have you ever tried spreadsheet on phone? Real pain.
True also, as long as cheap ppl will probably buy Gonna be a ton for sale in garage sales soon

mostly maybe free dock cable or free wireless charger during road show , but do come on mind. the holiday tax almost end already
Ya didn’t factor in the tax holiday. I am thinking later on after the po they might still be giving out the watch, but by then better online vouchers may appear.
a picture worth thousand of word. if you minus the rm350 advance payment will deduct in your bill it's lower RM2K. If you love / like / need all those freebies then can go for it, i just feel i don't need it so i just take the phone will do

i try to avoid to do any work on phone, to read and quick minor editing then email them it is fine for me ...not to mention I need to use Autocad sometime, for sure this phone couldn't it.

Haha. Of course we don't want to work if we can avoid. Going on holiday, it's either dragging a heavy laptop or a Dex.
For those who hesitates to change to Note 9 coming from S9 plus, S8+, Note 8, p20 pro or pixel ( i used all the phones except pixel)...mark my work..it worth every penny. This is my second day of using it. Though the UI is almost similar to S9 plus...it is a trade off compensated by the battery life, which my main key feature for me.
On my S9 plus... I have to keep using FHD resolution to have all day usage. Changing to QHD will give me a bit of anxiety that the battery wouldn't last a day.
P20 pro is just fine by me , lack of wireless charging and headphone jack is a bit a trade off. Not to mention the "glorious" Swift keyboard which I hated it most. I need to suck it up and treat it as my interim phone (already sold it by the way yesterday)
I tried some xiomi, asus, iphone and trust me... samsung always the best...SC in kota bharu also was very fast, this is might the added point to use samsung product.
As for the gesture...Android Pie already has this gesture feature... idk samsung will adapt it but the current samsung navigation might be outdated in due time.
Everything is all excellent, the AKG speaker quality is nice, but it is not as loud as other phone, this is due to small membrane for the water resistance.

Does the box come with an extra case? I think Note 8 did right? Just wanna check so that it has some protection before the cases arrive. lmao. How come it doesn't come with HDR recording?

Currently using S7 Edge since it launch. Phone still running fast due to consistently flashing custom rom. Not sure worth to upgrade?? Because heard of Galaxy S10 or Beyond going to be something innovative..hmmm

you raised a good point, i started to think that, if we use that simple adaptor that Samsung introduced, USB-C to HDMI, how do we charge our phone then? erm...
Nothing the old Note can't do. Still need a keyboard and mouse to get desktop experience. Only exception is, you no longer need an power source.
I think after the Qoo10 RM500 voucher, we paid RM31xx, which was alright Yeah, I thought you weren't going to since the reviews you shared mostly said it was not worth upgrading from Note 8
Unfortunately for malaysia its the shitty exynos… prob is most will not care cause all they do is suft nasty net utube fagbook insta etc in which every phone can so now so dun care if it a shit soc like exynos…
Prob is for power user like me n u who care about power for reason like multitask games etc we want sd845 not that shit exynos… only way I see now is ap import… u want to do it together maybe I plan to buy the sd845 note 9 as well… hope more pipu join
Yeah yeah you so super power user we all shitty noob user. Now go play in the jamban alone with your massive over inflated ego and superiority complex.

how do you guys get rm500 discount from Qoo10? rm250 is from the coupon where's the other rm250? still in dilemma 128gb or 512gb the only gripe is 512gb only have black. thanks

That was a year ago bro. Since then Qoo10 has reduced the value and quantity of vouchers drastically over time. It’s now RM100 or RM250 vouchers regularly, and sometimes on special occasion can get RM400 vouchers.
Scroll at the Note9 page and you can see the RM250 coupon. Click the voucher. If limit exceeded, make a new account.
Thanks bro! Made the payment. Got the Midnight Black 128GB with 6GB RAM. Used Shopback 2% + Qoo10 RM250 Voucher + Using my PBB Visa Signature Card RM38 cash back + I just applied this PBB card to get the Shope RM288 campaign. So will get another RM288 Shope Voucher afterwards

Wow lucky you. More savings! Congrats for the new Note9.
If anyone join the HSBC Credit Card Lazada Campaign, it will be more worth it because as long as you achieve 2k spending for your new HSBC card then you can get the RM500 Lazada voucher
I unplugged the handset at 100 percent yesterday afternoon. I texted, listened to Spotify, took photos, downloaded and just generally attempted to live my life on the damn thing.
Just under 22 hours later, it gave up the ghost and after much notification-based consternation about a critically low battery, the screen went black. Like I said, it’s not crazy battery life, but going most of a full day and night without a charge is a nice little luxury — and the sort of thing all phone makers should strive to achieve on their flagship products.
22 hours is more than enough, for me, unplugged at 06.30 and it will last before bedtime again....

That's what Samsung has been openly published: all day, all night (whole day experience).

Yes, I agreed. If can last from the moment I start using until goes to sleep. That's perfect for me.
Well, it's all about trust. I bought my previous few phones from Lazada.
what do you mean trust? i just wonder is it buyer need to register anythings online? like i bought calculator online, after getting it i need to register to for warranty, is it samsung also the same coz i dont know is it seller done it already or no need...

Some seller will register for you. In case otherwise, you need to register the e-warranty with SME yourself. You can always call SME or live chat with them to check for warranty registration. They're pretty helpful in assisting you.

ooh. ok. thanks for you info. just waiting for my credit card to come then can buy it and gain another lazada RMM500 voucher.
i dont know about SENQ offer. But i PO at senheng. Other than the same package SAMSUNG SME offer, i got extra 1 year warranty and 32GB EVO microsd card.
Hmm.. i tot both SenQ n SenHeng the same.. But SenQ only offer 32gb sd card for 512gb...
Ok maybe I put it to bluntly but sd845 is better… less bug too more rom support and emulator works 10 times better…apa salah I prefer sd845 Outdated info lah go check the latest test
Tak salah to have a preference, but putting down others just because they dont happen to share your preference is juat egoistical.
Yeah yeah you so super power user we all shitty noob user. Now go play in the jamban alone with your massive over inflated ego and superiority complex.

No, TOMEI-R and I were reminiscing the good old days during the Note 8 pre-order
Maybe a good thing they stopped the RM500 voucher... it made me spend a lot of money!
Ya man.. All the impulse purchases because got those damn coupons.
for those who still not able to purchase note 9, try SME in kota bharu...i am not biased, due to purchasing power, with that high price, some people would prefer cheaper phone...

I don't think there would be a shortage of stocks like during Note 7. There were more than adequate stocks for the Note 8 last round.

for those who needs it on this thursday... ill be back to malaysia and arriving thursday morning from Saudi Arabia...just for hardcore fan...due to currency difference..its a bit higher than Malaysia of course...lol...check the link below..
After thinking for a long time, I finally PO'ed the note 9. First time spent more than 2k for a phone. Hopefully its worth it for the price I paid. Haha

when i bought n5, i told myself this is last 2k+ phone .......... until 7,8,9, xzp n bla bla bla
Anyone here own Note 1 to Note 8 never fail and now plan to own Note 9 too? 😂
I start from Note 3 and never stop since. And Note 7 aka explosive phone is the best industrial design for me. Now my hand itching to get Note9. Damn the poison. Will decide this Monday because got extra money this Monday. But my family start from the first Note. My dad use the first Note and my brother use the Note 2. So essentially I have tried all of them.

i have been using black phone for years...since Galaxy S2, then my S9 plus is purple...after sometime... you kinda miss black again...
you know they say...once you go black, you never back....
yeah i think black is very professional, and you won't get bored looking at it. haha! I like the black on my Samsung S8, really makes everything looks "infinity".
any sifu can advise celcom or digi plan better? using maxis now but seems like it offers the least
Check the coverage of the telco where you live, work and play first. You don’t wanna sign up with a telco that doesn’t have good coverage or network speed even if you can buy the device cheap.

1+
Forgot to advise this also. For me i been using celcom for 10++ years.
Digi phone cost RM2899 with 120 plan. Maxis even expensive. Celcom cheapest so far bro.
oh... sorry i didnt mention i'm taking the most expensive plan celcom is cheapest but digi free phone A6+ (for existing customer) so if i port over then only take the plan can get the free phone? hehe maxis is a let down again

Ah i see. Then if you using Digi, then is better since A6+ retailing rm1299 if im not mistaken.
Celcom on the other hand right now people complain about speed issue. 4G but slow, and intermittent 4G coverage.

Well, I started with maxis, then tried DiGi, Celcom, and even U Mobile before returning to maxis. They are the most expensive by far but they are the only ones with decent coverage for me. Then again, I use to pay RM128 for 3GB data but I get 40 GB now for that amount. Shouldn’t be complaining
Wah..if can get both free gift really nice la. Good luck
So total how much did u pay at digi? Upfront?
I think get free Ferrari is better bro lol ..... I pay upfront RM 3269. I get the lowest plan which is RM90 per month. Good enough.
QUOTE(OOtaii @ Aug 10 2018, 11:11 PM)
Sounds Very good deal if confirm can get A6+.. Btw which plan did u choose?
Actually just before you pay, there's a page that shows everything that you will get including Sim card, delivery charges (which is 0) and also the A6+. If you don't see it there then don't pay. I choose the lowest plan RM90/month.
