Counter is the keyword, my interpretation is same as you.
but samsung online chat is different answer which mean preorder from them is also eligible for tier 1 promo.
*
That is the issue with Samsung Live Chat, whether it is true or not the answer given.
They always give contradicting answers.
BTW the roadshow I suspect should be handled by Thunder Match Technology.
Maybe they can give the definite answer.
Plus in the TnC, it clearly states you need to have an email from Samsung, so in other words PO from Samsung only.
That what makes me not confident other PO customers which buy from other platforms besides Samsung are eligible for this promo.
That is why I am advising others to read the TnC carefully or you will be disappointed.

I get what u mean bro, mean on actual day 4th of Mar, purchase at the selected counter only entitled for the roadshow gift, if this is the real situation, so mean on actual day, the 120 units are divided into SES, Harvey Norman, telco n etc? :s so how the ppl Q on that day? Q at the merchant counter that set up on that day or Samsung Q, kinda confusing
*
Like my experience last year on Note10 roadshow, the roadshow gifts still limited as stated by Samsung.
All of you whether you want to buy from telcos or those other merchants, still gonna Q one line as designated by Samsung.
No matter what.
Then they will give the Golden Ticket from the first person in line until the Golden Ticket finished.
Once you get the Golden Ticket, you can go choose which counter you want to buy from.
Whether from the telcos, the other merchant or the main roadshow partner which maybe Thunder Match.
The most important thing is to get the Golden Ticket, then after you get it, you can buy later, buy now or buy at anytime during the roadshow.
The most important part is you MUST get the Golden Ticket first no matter what, after that you can do anything you want once you get it.
You want to go eat, nak pergi toilet up to you.
You ald secure your place once you get the Golden Ticket.

Edit: And you cannot sell your Golden Ticket ya once you get it.
They will ask for your IC in order to get the ticket.
When you want to buy it, they will ask for your IC to make sure there is no hanky panky happening.

Thanks so much for ur sharing bro, I am still clarifying with Samsung Care and wait for thier reply. Means that even the event start at 10.30am but after i get the Golden Ticket, i can buy at anytime on the same day with guarantee roadshow gift right? Not sure the Golden Ticket must be same IC as the preorder IC or not
*
That is what I experienced on the last roadshow.
Maybe they will use the same pattern like Note10 roadshow.
Because last year don’t have any issues that I know during the roadshow.
For PO, cannot confirm, but Golden Ticket must match those IC registered during queue.
Supposely you should get the gift no matter what once you get the Golden Ticket eventhough you buy it at a later time based on my last year experience.
And maybe Samsung will still use 1 queue line whether you are PO or roadshow customer because it clearly states first come first serve.
Goodluck to those who gonna go to roadshow ya.

Just wondering why some of you guys pre-ordered from Harvey Norman/Senheng/Senq when the freebies are the same? They are considered 3rd party retailers so I doubt they are part of the roadshow (?)
*
They will be part of the roadshow because they will offer other freebies like extra warranty, other free gifts and so on.
Based on Samsung TnC, only SenQ and Harvey will be joining the roadshow.

iPhone will always be king in videography.
Even compared my Note10+, I love the video taken from my iPhone 11.
That is only iPhone 11, not the Pro one.

Well for a smartphone camera it is impressive.

Going or not? I might go...because of the TV.  sweat.gif  I think go around 5am should be good. Need not be the first.

Possibly no due to increase of COVID 19 cases.
Now rethinking not to go.

At first I want to go queue for my dad, now considering due to COVID 19.

Ordered from Celcom and got mine today. No free case though? Although I already purchased my own casing.

How do you get the screen crack protection separately from Samsung? I had it on my previous two phones as preorder perk, but now dont have leaw =(
*
Go to any Samsung Service Center, you ask them want to buy Screen Protection 1 Year.
Or better take Protection Plus, got 1 year screen protection + extra 1 year warranty.

Wireless charge pad took almost 2 hrs to fully charged the phone. That was slow!

It is only charging at 9W.
Should not expect it to be fast.

Fast charging is around 35w on cable.. some 18w.. 9w sure slow.. hahaha

Well that should be expected from a free wireless charging pad give by Samsung.
It is an old model, so max 9V.
If you want a bit faster, you can buy the 15W wireless charger from Samsung.
You may try fast wireless charging from other brands, but it won’t go more than 7.5W due to proprietary tech used by Samsung.

But for me cable all the way la.
25W for S20/20+ and 45W for S20U.
Less than 1 hour ald full.

Read somewhere that 45W charging not that much faster than the standard 25W? Dunno of it's worth getting the 45W charger
*
Yep.
The only advantage using 45W for now is the first 30% of charging, after that it will slow down to prevent battery degradation.

Wait what you mean Samsung locked so that other wireless charger can't work to its full potential with their phones? First time hearing this

I think you can read from the internet and see the comparison of using Samsung owned wireless charger and Qi based standard charger.
Even their new Wireless Fast Charge 2.0 is using a proprietary tech.

Based on the certification for 15W wireless charging pad from Samsung that I get from Wireless Power Consortium, it is only capable to charge max 5W for Qi enabled smartphone.
That shows it uses proprietary tech to charge Samsung phones.

Below is for Xiaomi:

Xiaomi did support Extended Power Profile thus can go faster.

I have used many wireless charging especially Samsung, you need to buy only Samsung wireless chargers in order to get the full benefits of fast wireless charge for Samsung devices.
If you used other brands, you will be stuck with less than 7.5W of charging.

Went to sleep at 11 with 100%, woke up 9:15 with 93%. Get ready, didnt touch phone much just sent few whatsapp messages and dropped to 90%.
This is with 60Hertz and turned off Always On Display
*
That is typical Exynos.
The standby time have not been the best among all other competitors using SD.
Even my Note10+ lose around 5 to 8% batt life during sleep.
