Does the previous Z Flips comes with 5g? Can't seem to get the info from Samsung Malaysia website and their Lazada. Hmm
*
I think previous z flip in Malaysia is the non 5g version with sd855, 5g with sd865 not released here.
Wondering when samsung will release the pre order promos. This round seems like the z flip will be a good seller if priced right. Gf eyeing the z flip since last year but held her off it cause knew this version will be much improved.
She kena too much poison from kdrama sweat.gif

Yea from the Flip 3 videos, seem like Samsung is keeping the price low. Definitely not as high as the Fold. I'm tempted as well. Lol.

Just watched MKBHD and Dave2D's video, things look promising. High refresh rate, stereo speaker. Camera is the same. But I think shud be sufficient for normal point and shoot.

Any insider news on Malaysia's pricing? 👀
*
999usd same as s21 plus launch price.
So probably around 4299, if got good pre order promo eg with the new buds + some form of insurance / extended warranty might be a good pick up biggrin.gif
Agreed the cameras should be good enough for usual social media use.

Since Fold & Flip they already use Snapdragon chipset on every variants.

This round seems like using Exynos also according to Linustechtips sweat.gif
On the bright side this is one of the rare years where exynos isn't too bad lah.
Been using s21 ultra since launch and battery life/performance has much improved over the exynos 990 which was a disaster.
Not too sure how the battery would be on the foldables though as it is a smaller sized one compared to s21u sweat.gif

Ah thanks for this! Interesting indeed.
If really priced at 3999, imo not too bad for someone who looking for something different!

Rm6699 very nice price already, i would buy it but camera and battery is such a let down.. how come bigger screen phone but battery smaller than S21u? And camera is still 2-3 years old behind.. hard to accept in 2022 if thinking ahead
*
Like always it's better to wait for the next gen if can tongue.gif
This 3rd fold seems like samsung trying to keep cost down and try to appeal to masses so not much upgrade compare to previous fold. They just focus to improve the durability of the phone and design tweak here and there.
Expect bigger changes next year, probably camera etc also might improve next year but I think for camera tech they still will put their best into the S - series for now.

not really about quality, but in terms of flexibility of zoom and also lack of laser AF
cameras themselves are fine

Dual pixel AF is better than laser AF.
They only implemented laser AF cause can't get dual pixel to work on their 108mp sensors sweat.gif

Wow ..what is overtrade promo that can top up from rm505 to rm1.3k? Mind to share detail?
*
I think this is their usual promo for trade ins during this period. Last time when I upgraded from note 20u to s21U also got something similar. The listed price for n20u trade in 2.3k then got promo add another rm600 to that 2.3k.
Anyone free can go SES get a full price list possibly biggrin.gif

Got a dead rainbow pixel on my screen. Went to Samsung Service Centre in 1Utama and it seems like they're experiencing a lot of it as the guy had a script. Showed him my phone and a dead pixel and he said that is because the screen is cracked. Told him "but the screen looks good from the outside no?". He turned off the screen looked carefully and said "yes but the screen in these phones is very thin and it can be cracked by nail". Asked him "but it's normal for samsung user to have nail right". He said "i don't know".. I'm supposed to call Samsung Care on Monday but I feel like owning this phone is too risky. Understand if the ultra thin glass cracked..

Shouldn't it still be covered by warranty anyways? Regardless of cause sweat.gif since its premium device iinm Samsung bundles together with screen replacement warranty right

How’s the battery life for normal usage?
I got a deal 2nd hand for around 2600-2650, wonder is it a good deal?
*
Depends on your definition of normal usage. So far good enough to last full working day. I think SOT is around 4 hours. But if heavy use definitely will need to top up juice during the day.
I think if you keen for flip phone at this point I'd rather just wait for the flip 4. Probably incremental update only but so far every new gen of foldable seems to be better. Either in build quality with the hinge and the durability of the screen.


QUOTE(FazdRay @ Feb 18 2022, 01:57 PM)
Mine also need to change. Heard can get free sp change at samsung centre
*
Tried that, SC in Melaka don't do. They will replace screen if screen is affected. For purely screen protector problem what they recommended us was to just replace it.
Maybe if in KL can consider mobile outfitter since they custom cut the protector and if I'm not mistaken got warranty and can change anytime for small fee.
