Just to add on some comments on GaN charger recommendations. Not all chargers will support 45w even though it has >45w due to PPS compatibility.

Previously was discussed in S22 thread, there is quite a number of brands that support, such as Mcdodo and few more but I can't recall those brand.

But normal 25w charge speed is almost same as 45w.
Like difference in minutes.
Small knowledge :
Fast charging = 15w (charging logo is green)
SFC = 25w (charging logo is blueish green)
SFC 2.0 = 45w (charging logo is blueish green)
*
Which means it's actually the same? Good share.

the RM1325 3rd part lai, ambik, then bayar you separate from the order/checkout of your new S23
So checkout dapat the RM600 rebate saja, technically betul la, 1325+600
*
Oh mcm ni. Then worth it. I traded my phone RM 700, I thought i only got RM 600. so is RM 600 + RM 700. Good info.

I'm using ugreen gan charger for my S22U, so far no issues. Not bothered with the "45w" charging status. So far full charge from 10% around 1 hour.
Samsung haven't implement any proper fast charging like the China phones. The 45w charger and normal 25w charging very minimal difference. Shouldn't even be advertised as a feature imo

very true, kinda funny flagship phone have this kind of charging speed. anyway will look at ugreen gan charger since the ori samsung 25w charger cost that much already smile.gif

I experienced the same. Check out page stucked at loading. Try to buy different stuff like TV still the same.

Lastly, I use guest account and able to proceed to check out.

After that I suspect is the 'Saved Address' that caused the problem, so login my account & removed my Saved Address and then click like usual pre-order steps & manually key in my address.

Check out page is able to load this time, but too bad I already placed my order as Guest account.

ordered already... ss email confirmation on orders liao. can proceed once i check the optional box for marketing news.. ok liao.. now looking for phone case rclxm9.gif

Third party fast charging got different colour "ring"? Or is it only unique to Anker?

This is what the Anker FAQ says but idk if other third-party fast chargers also got same thing.

good infor - thanks!

i still feel it is dumb for samsung not to incl a charger with their phones. frankly buying phones from samsung or iphone is a poor experience compared to brand like xiaomi/honor/oppo etc. you have everything you need when you receive the phone - fast charger, usb cable, a simple case and factory installed screen protector. dont have to set aside additional budget to scout around and worse, getting suckered when buying overpriced casing and screen protector biggrin.gif .

Just an update for trade-in.

Instacash just drop by to collect my iPad 2 Wifi Cellular 64GB. The estimated trade-in value is RM22. However, after checking they gave RM55 and receive bank transfer within 15 minutes.

So the value still varied according to your phone/watch/tablet condition. Anyway, still a win win for both side.

To confirm, you also able to get RM600 off your bill for trade in right? So in total you got RM655 for trade in.

Were you able to schedule the pickup time in the link they sent you via the email? Because when I try to open the link it shows error 404 at the website.

guys, i just realized i got a RM600 immediate discount for trading in my note 20 ultra.

and my note 20 ultra has an extimated trade in value of RM1325.

does that mean the total value of my trade in is RM1325 + RM600?
*
Technically right. The breakdown can be explained as below:

The RM600 is a "gift" by Samsung.

Instacash will still come to your place to check your phone. After that they will do bank transfer to you. So not necessary will be RM1325. cool2.gif

Yes. The RM600 is deducted during the purchase of the new phone. The RM55 is bank transfer to your bank account.

For second question, can refer to my post Post #511

Related stuff I found from Google just now, I thought it will be good to share here:

TLDR
In summary, the following prerequisites are required to achieve Super fast charging 2.0 mode:

1. A USB-C to USB-C cable rated at 5A (100W)
2. A Samsung phone supports 45W fast charging
3. A 45W or powerful charger that follows the latest 9V/5A PPS charging protocol.

Hi, can I check with the gurus here since I can't find conclusive answers online. Thank you.

I have this 15W wireless triple charger from Samsung. https://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/mobile-ac...ep-p6300tbegus/

If I were to buy this transparent case with magnetic ring, can I still charge wirelessly using the above charge pad?

Did you contact them to make the collection? Or they contacted you instead when they came to collect it?

Yes it can. The magnetic ring is just to attach the magnetic wireless charger to it.

Only thick casing or stand attached to the phone that causes a relatively longer distance from the charger pad will make the charging process not possible. For example, pop socket (but it can be removed).

Thank you for your reply. Because some online answers state the magnetic ring will interfere with the wireless charging. Some says no. Have you tried it yourself and will it affect the charging speed? I can't find a decent transparent case without the ring....
