You can.

Samsung official website will allow you to get the trade-in discount immediately, regardless of whether you really trade in the phone or not later. Of course, that is assuming they don't change their procedure.

Trade-in will take place later with a 3rd party, Comp-Asia. They will find you to inspect the phone and give you an official valuation on your phone. You can choose the accept or not. Either way, the trade-in discount for the phone you received when you place your preorder will not be affected.

You mean the rm600 trade in discount will still apply even though at the end we did not trade in the old phone. If this is the case, it is no brainer, one should select trade in in the first place, and later quit the trade in smile.gif

Correct. Last time the value for ANY phone (even if broken or cracked), they give a RM600 trade-in discount for you. You just need the IMEI code if I am not mistaken. Later the 3rd party will contact you to ask to meet up to inspect the phone. Even if you then say you don't want to continue the trade-in, the trade-in discount is already in effect.

Or if you do meet with them and then the value they gave is unacceptable to you, you can also choose not to proceed.

I remembered someone mentioned they entered their old useless Redmi phone also can get the RM600 trade-in discount.

Well for this year, will have to see if the process is still the same or whether the value is still RM600.

So technically, when they call you, it is just to collect the trade in device from you where you have enjoyed the trade in discount upfront, right? Unless you tell me they are going to pay me again?

They will pay you again for whatever they value your gadget is worth.

So basically you enjoy RM600 trade-in discount upfront + whatever trade-in value they give you.

Samsung gives the trade-in discount, where as the trade-in value is given by another company, CompAsia. They have an app on Play Store, see the link provided by the forummer above my post. It will give you a rough estimate value of your phone.

CompAsia business is selling 2nd phones (all brands).
Quite legit, I bought a 2nd hand Samsung Galaxy A52s from them before. Also I did traded in a Samsung Galaxy S21 to them before. Maybe you can sell a bit more on Carousell or LYN but I lazy to go through all the hassle of meeting people here and there.

Can we combine evoucher or any preorder discount with trade in?

The Kevlar Pro for S23U seems has better protection at camera area compared to S24U version. I wonder what is the purpose UAG changed the design for S24U.

I get from this buyer, 324 after discount

They omitted the individual camera cutout in S24 series. If they keep camera cutout as of the S23 series, that would be perfect. Wonder if it is due to camera issue.

optical zoom always better than digital zoom... the s24u "seem" can get better result purely due to heavy twisted post processing which just the sw tweak...  hmm.gif
the one ui6.1 mostly tailor made to compensate the downfall from the 5x zoom lens...  whistling.gif

This is like a no brainer kind of thing. If you fix both phones with tripod, exact same spot, and exact same time snap a picture with 10x and 5x zoom, the optical one will surpass the digital one when you further zoom in the picture.

According to this review (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ZmZZuwq11s), S24 Ultra the screen a little bit curve and the edge, for glass protector, need 3D to fully cover the whole screen.
