Some useful information about the Pre-orders:

if you didn't register the email voucher can try the codes below courtesy of our local tech news sites:

AMGS23R - amanz
LWGS23R - lowyat
SYGS23R - soyacincau

Guys,

Those who trade in, I believe the email link you received is broken.

I contacted Instacash (0186692697) myself to arrange for the pick up. Surprisingly they can arrange the pick up tomorrow. Quite efficient in this matter.

Below is the WhatsApp reply after providing the details:

Thank you! We have arranged your pick-up accordingly. The logistics team will contact you directly on the exact time of their arrival. Please expect a call or Whatsapp message from them.

Order ID :
Date : *03/02/2023*

*Note : Presuming unable to pick up the device, our logistics / rider will notify you by call or Whatsapp to arrange back collection*

QUOTE(kongkkm @ Feb 3 2023, 03:27 PM)
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.

QUOTE(RedDevils88 @ Feb 3 2023, 01:55 PM)
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?
*
QUOTE(kongkkm @ Feb 3 2023, 03:35 PM)
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

Same same Samsung S22 Ultra's ultrawide, zoom, 4k, 5000mah, 45W, 70 mins charging, screen, design. Only difference is 8 gen 2 & 200MP.

This year I might buy a CN set instead. 240W, 8K on all cameras including zoom & ultrawide.

I actually welcome their current approached. The phone already has very good technology, so it is to better focus on what the customers want, just like Apple.

Increase the battery efficiency, resolved the camera stutter problem and improve the UI animation and interface for a better user experience.

S23U already $100 more expensive than iPhone Pro Max, I would say the selling price already reached the ceiling.

The S23U will be worth if SME offers good early bird promo.

Meow'd get the SME's S23U if SME offers :
1) Free Care+, and/or
2) 40% Trade-in value of S22U 256GB, and/or
3) Current gen of Galoxxx Smartwatch.

Don't want those other silly accessories....

I am only hopping for a Galaxy Buds and not the smartwatch. They just reported losses, so I will not have high hopes

if samsung charging additional $100 over S22 follow iphone step. Ask them go fly kite.

Other than pre order, we all most probably will wait for discount before our purchase anyway.

And Samsung knew this, that’s why they need to place the price slightly higher to maintain the profit margin.

And also why customers that pre ordering also expecting better free gifts bundle together

But to be honest, their product indeed overpriced, hence the sales are not as what they expect 😛

like to preorder one, how long to get the device ?
*
Based on some members' feedback in the past, some buyers got their phone 2 weeks after the launching (the official release day), however, some buyer said their phone took more than a month to arrive due to selecting exclusive/unique colour.

So colour plays a factor on when you getting your phone. tongue.gif

Overall, shall be getting from 2 weeks to 1 month + from the preorder date.

7 important changes in S23 series.

1. ⁠Lower buttons (The S23 side buttons sit slightly lower than those on its predecessor).
2. ⁠Smaller hole punch (The S23 models will get a small punch-hole on the front screen).
3. ⁠Wider frame (Samsung’s Galaxy S23, the Ultra and Plus seem to share a metal frame and glass cover design).
4. ⁠Improved speakers (The speakers in the Galaxy S23 Series reportedly get a noticeable bump in quality for a better listening experience while also offering better bass as well).
5. ⁠Improved cooling (As per the recent leaks, the Galaxy S23 models will feature a cooling system that is 1.6 times better than the Galaxy S22).
6. ⁠Big camera improvements (After 3 generations of using the 108MP sensor, the South Korean tech giant is finally bringing the jump to an even more impressive 200MP sensor).
7. ⁠Massive performance improvements (The Galaxy S23 series will feature Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset

I actually just worry that s23 will use the customised 8 gen 2 chip that has higher clock speed, that will be make from Samsung fab.

I also have to add on. I think current Android generally also have better application management. So there won’t be tons of the apps actively running in the background choking the ram.

Got rumours saying that the ultrasonic fingerprint sensor is the same as s21 and s22 series. It will be a disappointment if they are not using the latest qualcomm 3d sensor

Yea, seems like they going to save it for S24.

Even the recent leak mentioned the same. Continuing using the old sensor

I feel like every time they changed the design or something, they will screw it up and then required multiple release to rectify the flaws or bugs
