Lazada error laugh.gif ...anyway rm4488 is just so so for the price. Nothing too spectacular bro.

Not really a flash sale then. No wonder only one sold after 3 cancelled.


The X2 vs S20U ? I'd say the P40 Pro. tongue.gif A bro from this thread with the S20 Ultra turned rogue and joined the forbidden side and is very happy with his decision. laugh.gif

Wrong thread to ask for Huawei stuff dude. Go to the Huawei model specific thread instead.

Most likely is the high price and the processor they offered to the market lo.
People hate Exynos. Samsung is just can't accept the fact so blame covid19.  hmm.gif

Selling only the SD variants of the S20 series on their home market in South Korea is ultimately the "dumbest" move Samsung could make. doh.gif It literally proves to the whole world the Exynos version is inferior to the SD.

This one depends on our local pricing lo. Remember last year op7 Pro disaster local launch. 3699 when s10 also same price.
If the oneplus 8 Pro launch at 4k and above, most people would probably still opt for Samsung due to brand perception sweat.gif
It is good for those who wanna get sd865 flagship with all the bells and whistles though. Camera performance also on par with S20 this year.
One more thing is the warranty support on oneplus phones, not sure if they've improved or not. So far Samsung being the bigger company has pretty good service centres around the country.
*
The Oneplus is not going to be cheap for sure. So unless you are going for the Sd version of the S20 series, if not then it would not be worth comparing it against the Exynos version of the S20 series. Take note the comparision in the video was btw the OP8 Pro vs the S20 Ultra Sd, not the exynos.

Also bear in mind the S20 Ultra is 400 pounds more expensive than the OnePlus 8 Pro in the UK. The choice couldn't be more obvious.
*
400 quids is a lot of money.

QUOTE(clocksmolder @ Apr 15 2020, 01:59 PM)
I thought the S20 family only came in 128G with option of SD card

so how's the Snapdragon proc? better?
*
Nope. It comes in 128gb, 256gb and 512GB. Samsung may have the 1TB model for select markets too.

QUOTE(aizat22 @ Apr 15 2020, 02:04 PM)
samsung pay can use tak? what about warranty?
*
Yes. This has been discussed countless times before. You just need to change the region in the settings.

Thanks for the info bro,

Wonder where does the seller get his stock from? US? China? these are the countries that has the SD proc right?
*
The SD proc units sold here are usually from HK and China. US and a few other select countries also have SD proc including South Korea themselves.

Snapdragon S20 Ultra @ 120 Hz blows them out of the water.

Nice. But still Iphone pawns all. laugh.gif


The S20 Ultra beat the Oneplus 8 Pro and P40 Pro because of its 5000 mah vs 4500mah vs 4200 mah obviously. biggrin.gif

Let me share this on the other threads. nod.gif

It is indeed impressive. If set at 60 Hz, it will sure beat iPhone which is also on 60 Hz.

Exynos 990 Ultra version.

The S20 Ultra even had the highest capacity battery at 5000mah amongst all the phones in the test.

A good question would now be ...is it justifiable paying so much more for an imported Snapdragon S20/S20+/S20 Ultra ?

Ya. From SME. Changing back to 60hz solved.

I think its because many apps are still running at 60hz and 90hz and the phone is struggling to adapt to the different apps' display and hence the warming up issue. Have you tried then usual phone restart?

Hi bro. Yeah tried restarted multi times. Still same . And when in 120hz mode, the phone will heating up even when taking photo. 5 min trying zoom here n there then heating up. Overall I think the software still not stable .

Looking at your avatar, you should have technical knowledge on smartphones. What do you think the contributing factor to be?
Defective hardware, defective battery, software, a rogue app? I mean all these could be a contributing factor to your phone overheatingto What do you plan to do before sending in the phone for RMA?

Yo bro. I think just the software not stable. Before the first update, my phone will always popped up choose your network sim 1/2. After the update, this issue seems gone. Hopefully the next software upgrade solve this issue.

If a battery defective, u will have a random jumping battery percentage . If hardware defective, you will have a very quick battery draining even lock screen the phone will heating up. Mine if turn on 120hz mode, phone will starting to heating up but not those temperature sensor popped up.

Hopefully Samsung will take note on this and settle down in next update or else they hard to battle with huawei p40.

Samsung has taken the issue-ridden Galaxy S20 Ultra firmware off the air

"The Galaxy S20 series has received quite a few updates in a short time. Unfortunately, the last update that was released globally for the Galaxy S20, Galaxy S20+, and Galaxy S20 Ultra turned out to have too many issues, including the presence of a green tint on the display when high refresh rate is enabled and, in the case of the Galaxy S20 Ultra, slower super fast charging than what the phone was initially capable of.

And it seems Samsung realized the extent to which the last update caused issues on the Galaxy S20 Ultra: It has now taken the latest firmware for the device off the air. If you hadn’t already downloaded the latest update — software version G988xXXU1ATCT — on your phone, you will probably not be able to download it now, either over the air or through Samsung’s Smart Switch software for Windows and Mac."

This is totally not acceptable that Samsung releases updates that are half baked to consumers causing much inconvenience to users. Come on Samsung, you are the largest smartphone manufacturer in the world and you come up with these silly mistakes?

yes.5g and 12gb ram. the difference in price with exynos is around rm300.

but do you guys think that 5g will be ready in Malaysia in coming years?  hmm.gif  hmm.gif
*
It wouldn't make sense to get the exynos right now, unless its very low priced.

Earliest in implementation of 5G would be Maxis. They have mentioned official roll out to be Q1 of 2021.

Okok, thanks for the advice.

I'm thinking of going for this option but worried about warranty. Spending more with higher risk.

Find sellers that are going to help you send your unit back to the origin country for RMA. Some of the sellers do while some charges a small fee to do that.

QUOTE(dennis008 @ Apr 22 2020, 09:40 AM)
Yes... But what makes me still buy the exynos version is their after sales services...

Of course i hope they can bring in sd variant for note 20 haha
*
That would be optimistic. If Samsung still pushes on with the Exynos, Malaysia will still be getting it. Where else do you expect Samsung to dump the Exynos phones? Even the Koreans theselves who are hardcore supporters of Samsung rejected the Exynos chipset and hence they are getting the SD version instead.
