Normally, we would have judged before the review, because we all knew, it's the same old exynos. But this time, we need to wait for review, for real. I guess it's a good start? Lol.

S21 yes , S21+ and Ultra is glass.

Plastic or glass gonna put casing so doesn't really matter.

Screen size + battery life important

Oh OK, noted on that. At least the S21+ is glass.

It’s not a matter of whether you put a case on it or not, but I think paying over RM3k for a phone with a plastic back is a bit much, no matter how nice the plastic “feels”. But that’s just me.

Thanks for the confirmation guys!

According to benchmark, seems like this time Exynos pawns Snapdragon
But as usual, will wait for review 1st

Based on the comparison I did earlier, indeed the Malaysian version is more expensive than others when compared with the same 256GB specs (+$50 in the US for example)

I actually want the phantom red but it's only for US

Arghh.......I feel it's either samsung or no phone for me.

Snapdragon 888 having overheat issue which kinda reminds me of exynos issue .

What you guys think of Oppo or RoG phone ?

Best bet is to wait for review. Samsung phones are notoriously known for value drop as fast as 2 months after its official launch. This doesn’t help with the facts that some employees who are eligible for the Samsung EPP buy them at cheaper prices and sell below RRP. Samsung MY should take note of this and ban those EPP products claimed not under the original purchaser to teach these leeches a lesson. cool2.gif

My observation

Korea - Their home country. Can't afford to lose the status of leader in their own country therefore offer the best spec.

US - Huge market, and apple home country, give anything less than the best will get them swallowed alive.

China - Stiff competition from dozens of home manufacturers huawei, oppo, xiaomi etc ditto with US

Other markets - Testing ground for their own exynos.
