QUOTE(h@RT3r @ Mar 22 2019, 11:48 AM) Collected the pre-ordered A30 at Senheng yesterday, after redeeming points and whatnot, nett price is RM653. The free gift Samsung MicroSD is the 100mb/s one, nice. The phone came applied with screen protector, and there's a white transparent TPU case included in the box. Minimal bloatware in the phone, and most of them, can be disabled if not uninstalled by the user. A quick check of the rear camera, quality below average, can't even select resolution for photo quality. Screen, battery endurance, One UI are all awesome. Well camera so so quality is expected.. U not buying Samsung flagship phone... Give & take... U can't expect perfect phone at this pricing right...

Nope, I don't blame Sammy on this, the phone is for my parent, mostly for social media, web browsing and media consumption. At this price point, full HD AMOLED screen, USB Type-C, fast charging, big battery, 4GB+64GB+MicroSd support, OneUI are enough selling points for me.

Btw, what's the point of M20 really? At same price with A30, it has no AMOLED screen, no Pie 9 OneUI, only a bigger battery. Am I missing something here?

QUOTE(hirota @ Mar 22 2019, 11:20 AM) oh wait... my colleage s9+ also cant see, could be the router problem... i go home double check this. Ok bro, awaiting your feedback  QUOTE(nexona88 @ Mar 22 2019, 11:50 AM) Check the SOT too.. Want to see how long can actually last 😎 My gold standard for a 5000mAh battery is still my ex Zenfone Max Pro M1, 48 hours standby and 10 hours SOT, still got 15% battery left

QUOTE(ChaChaZero @ Mar 22 2019, 11:20 AM) It probably has ads. Even the S10 has ads but you can turn off/disable the Samsung Push Service to stop them ads from appearing in the notification bar. hopefully wont be as painful as disabling xiaomeme
