Hi folks.
I managed to find a seller selling Asus RT-AC88U at RM795 after discount. He claimed it is new and comes with 1 year warranty but imported from China. Is this a good price? Maybe it is refurbished?
Thanks.

I am unable to view it since it is would be sent from overseas.
Refurbished also means it could be second hand, which indicates the warranty is supplier warranty?

I spotted another set at around RM900 from another seller but it is also from China.

So for these 2 prices, could these be China version but still new and authentic? Or they imported from Amazon or something?
Or these prices are too good to be true, such that most likely they are not new but refurbished?

Thanks for the advice!

The converter is not an issue. If no warranty at all, then it is too risky. Who knows it may be dead on arrival? Are you buying it there or importing via your contact?

That's a bit of concern. If it is an RM70 item, worth the risk la. But this is RM700+ thing.

Wah! Dahsyat. So are you going to import again?

HK warranty? So if it happens to go kaput (not sure how likely or how less likely), then you have to wait until your next trip to claim warranty?
I am using TM stock router. So far my wireless is reasonable. My folks usually use their devices in the living room and bedrooms, all well covered. May not be 100% strength but good enough since they are using it for chat and web surfing. Not so much for streaming etc.
I am now wondering if I should upgrade to a more powerful one (although not the most powerful one) such as AC86U.

Oops! What I had in mind, and what I wrote earlier was ac88u, not ac86u. Would ac88u be an overkill? Local retail price is around RM1500 right?

I don't have that many devices...just some smartphones, my PC (connected via LAN) and the unifi STB (i understand that unifi uses another VLAN, so the bandwidth is not that much impacted?). But I am scheduled for an upgrade, which I am still waiting like you folks out here.

Thanks for the info for unifi TV (ya, I was referring to that).
So although AC88U seems to be more powerful, AC86U is still better (and cheaper)?
Since AC86U is not cheap, the next best thing (and one step lower) is TP-Link C3150 v2? How much is it? Around RM700?

Ok.
How much is AC86U being sold here in Malaysia? RM1000?
