Anything new?

I thought you would say 'same light saber'

New SoC and price as usual

A key lesson I’ve learned that I would like to share is to wait at least three months after a product launch before making a purchase. By then, platforms like Shopee or Lazada often offer discounts that can bring the price down by RM500 to RM700 compared to the launch price. For even greater savings, waiting six months can yield further discounts. This has been my strategy since the Samsung S22 Ultra – avoiding the launch rush and getting better value for money

Ah...Better camera.

Isn't that launching freebies that can offset the high launch price?

wait for 11.11.2025 with discount.

Looks good S25U

How many of you planning to upgrade to S25? Other than the new SoC, the rest doesn't seem worth the upgrade

nowadays everything also got AI.

park

Some items are priced more based on perceived value than their actual worth. For example, a product from another brand might cost RM100, but Samsung might price it at RM200 because of its brand value. A good example is my Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra—it retailed for RM3,200, but I got it for RM2,200 with freebies.

Another example is the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra 256GB. On Shopee during sales, you can get it for as low as RM3,700, while the retail price in Samsung stores is still RM6,200. Why the big difference? It’s not that Samsung is selling at a loss—it’s about perceived value. The higher retail price makes it seem more premium, but online sales cut into that margin to attract buyers.

What I usually do is wait 2 to 3 months after the launch and then buy online. After that, I add Samsung Care, and even with that, the final price is still cheaper than the pre-order price. It’s all about being patient and smart with your timing!

need to know it is after 2 year

AI in phones right now feels like hype and just a marketing gimmick. Even on my iPhone, the so-called “Apple intelligence” is worse than the old Siri. The AI features, like the one that’s supposed to summarize stuff, just make things worse. Same with the Samsung S24 Ultra—tried using its AI to correct some text, and honestly, it turned out worse than if I typed it myself. It’s like they’re just using AI as a selling point, but it’s not really that smart or helpful for us users.

Wait 1 month aje after launch... drop RM1,500.00 terus.

Got my S24U 512GB in mid-February 2024 - RM5370 from official RM6799.
No freebies, but didn't matter anyway.

Buying process is also another issue. Have to add in this voucher, that voucher for discount, add PWP, trade in making the buying experience complicated. Why dont Samsung make it simple this round by doing pre-orders like the previous rounds by adding freebies on the purchase to make everything smoother and easier for buyers.

wait for lazada birthday sales which is around march

You totally get me, bro. These days, I don’t use Lazada anymore because Shopee PayLater just takes the cake with their paylater. Imagine getting a discounted price, stacking it with bonus vouchers, and then splitting payments over 6 months with 0% interest. My PayLater credit has already climbed to RM7,500

This remind me of unpleasant experience with S22U. Received preorder voucher but no stock, have to wait. 5k phone comes with just a box. Lousy unboxing experience.

So now we need to buy the rm400 voucher?
The rm400 worth voucher need to purchase now.

https://www.samsung.com/my/gift-card/e-vouc...-code-evoucher/

Nett : RM600 - RM100 = RM500

I do use spaylater but pay early on weekend for my credit card cashback

most recent lazada purchase is ssd as it can stack a lot voucher, after deduct everything, the ssd price in lazada at least RM 150 cheaper than shopee

pay RM 100, get RM 600 voucher

then I saw this

pay rm100 to get additional rm300 discount? lol.

Yup Samsung is fastest to drop price in name of rebate.
After 3 4 months will trade in my S22U for S25

Legend has spoken. What about the store name you usually survey in these platform?
This s25 max storage is 512gb?

It’s really just a Samsung marketing tactic. The voucher discounts are already factored into their perceived retail value, so while it might seem like you’re getting a big discount, you’ve actually already paid for it in the price.

This is the store I usually buy from. Bought this 1month after launched

zfold 6 ultra mana or special edition

Huh... you mean you got an empty box without the phone?

Take my money!!

Hi, I am planning to go for the upcoming S25U.

The current phone I am using, Nothing Phone 2, has been sent to warranty after only 1 year+ of usage, and they(The distributor) want me to pay for a replacement cost of RM2k++, which is unacceptable as it is still covered under extended warranty. It is another issue I have to deal with in life.

I would like your suggestions on the best deal or option based on your experience.

I am considering not choosing any telco plan option and instead purchasing using a Credit Card (RHB/HSBC) with a 24-month installment.

Also, do not trade in any phone.

I am choosing between official Samsung, SenQ, or other retailers offering better or similar benefits.

I am thinking of getting it from SenQ because, with the low membership fee, it comes with an extra year warranty.
It looks very tempting, but I might miss out on all the rebates, pre-orders, or other unknown offers that Official Samsung has made.

Also, after researching past-year models S24 and S23, I found that both Samsung Official and Retailer offer similar pre-order promos, such as double storage / PWP.
Official Samsung Online will give an online voucher, where the retailer will provide a free product, such as buds, a charger, or an accessories kit.

I have an EDU email for the program, and I wonder if that can stack up vouchers and save up more cost.

I filled out the RM200 pre-interested registration and saw another product that required RM100 to receive RM600 in value.

samsung.com/my/gift-card/e-vouchers/pre-registration-evoucher-z-code-evoucher

Does anyone recall Samsung having this "Reservation+ Voucher" in the past?
To reserve or show interest in buying the new series phone, you have to pay RMxx, and they give you a rebate voucher.

I wonder if this new thing has replaced the old promo campaigns like S23 and S24, where you pre-order, and they offer an RM400 / RM500 voucher instead of buying this Reservation Voucher first.

I'm unsure if this will replace the Pre-Order offer or if it is a new/separate thing.

Please let me know your thoughts.
I also plan to visit the Samsung or SenQ store at 1utama for more information.

I'm sorry for posting the same post on an older S24 thread. I did not notice there was an S25 thread already.

After reading what you guys shared on the first page, where the price drop is so significant, I am also open to waiting for 1/2 month after the release, maybe March/April.

The main purpose of this posting is to get as much experience as possible from you, which will help me plan accordingly. I appreciate any help you can provide.

As a new account user, this is my last post every 12 hours.
I will reply after I get my post allocation back.

how does spaylater works? auto deduct from cc monthly like typical installment plan?

I have 5% off Samsung EPP for first time buyer.



Can I stack the RM 600 voucher with it?

R u buying the 25 ultra bro?

nah.. its like loan kedai... shoppee give you some amount. like 5k spaylater. you use it... then they will bill you every month. until finish. get another credit facilities for user. beware that the late chargers are high.

SPayLater works kind of like a credit card but isn’t actually a credit card. it’s exclusive to Shopee. First, you’ll need to register using your IC, and once they verify your details, they’ll give you a credit limit. It could be anywhere between RM100 to RM5,000, depending on their checking la

When you find something you like, SPayLater will show up as a payment option during checkout. You can choose to pay in installments ranging from 1 month to 12 months, but not every option is 0% interest. Some sellers offer only 1-month or 3-month plans, while others go up to 6 months. So far, I’ve never seen anything beyond 6 months.

The best part is ? You don’t have to use SPayLater for the full amount you can split it. Pay part of it with SPayLater and balance with cash or other payment methods; it’s all up to you la.

I’m still deciding. Now, I’m pretty happy with my Samsung S24 Ultra, and even if I do decide to buy, I’ll probably wait at least 3 months after launch to think about it. Honestly, though, I’ve been leaning more towards the Apple ecosystem lately it’s growing on me more and more.

This post has been edited by aspire2oo6: Jan 8 2025, 07:36 AM

So the pre-order bonus is just.... either RM200 for registering OR RM600 (spend RM100 to buy the voucher, non refundable)?

Wonder any trade in bonuses....

Anyone have previous years experience, once S25 announced will S24 series still be sold on samsung website?

This post has been edited by LostAndFound: Jan 8 2025, 10:04 AM

Yes, once the S25 Ultra comes out, the older models will drop in price, and there’ll be even better offers later. Let me emphasize it’s never worth pre-ordering if you understand Samsung’s marketing. They follow Google’s ZMOT strategy (7-11-4) the S24 Ultra is already as low as RM3.7k on Shopee sales, down from RM6.2k.

I’ve also figured out how the trade-in bonus works it doesn’t really matter how much your device is worth, as long as you trade something in. I traded in an old Samsung Note 9 for RM100 (market value around RM400), but I still got a RM600 bonus.

Of course it came with the phone but that's about it!

Epp usually cannot stack other promo voucer

Sharing :

EPP for reference:

Samsung S24 Ultra (12GB/256GB) = RM6,299 - RM1,260 (EPP) - RM300 (Trade In) - RM400 (Voucher) = RM4,339

Samsung S24 Ultra (12GB/512GB} = RM6,799 - RM1,360 (EPP) - RM300 (Trade In) - RM400 (Voucher) = RM4,739

Samsung S24 Ultra (12GB/1TB) = RM7,799 - RM1,560 (EPP) - RM300 (Trade In} - RM400 (Voucher) = RM5,539

I also parking here though i less fazed with Snapdragon Elite as i think 8 gen 3 more than powerful enough for average use (mostly i YouTube and Netflix and HBO)

Haha i wait 12 months

Dont need the 25 ultra anymore

Yup also I think S25+ makes more sense than Ultra ultra no more promising only 5% people using SPen it's time to Samsung bring ultra camera to S25+ variant too

can i check if my understanding is correct? with regards to the RM100 for RM600 voucher. in the end we are getting RM500 rebate right?

The RM600 e-voucher is derived from an RM400 rebate, plus an additional RM200 rebate (if you have successfully registered your interest).

So, RM600 less RM100 to pay for the voucher = RM500?

not withstanding trade in rebate.

plus can purchase the voucher up til 23 Jan, still got time to decide...

Yeah that is my understanding

any sammy employees can let me in on EPP haha

Is it still worth to get S24 when S25 is launched, assuming the price will go down? Anything that I am missing not getting the latest S25?

SD Gen 8 Elite + 10MP and 12MP to 50MP

i bought during pre order event pay RM376*12 with 2 years complete cover for 512 variants

free gift only one charger 25W

EPP price + discount voucher?

How to get that price RM376*12?

Traded-in something?

Is this pricing was during Samsung S24 Ultra launching time or after a few months?
The RM400 voucher given for register interest?

This post has been edited by roybreaker: Jan 8 2025, 07:22 PM

This EPP discount price is on the current date, right? "Clearance" price preparing for S25.
It is not the pre-order EPP price for a brand-new release phone.

Asking for a first-time EPP buyer for a new release phone.
How much is the discount? 5% ?
And it cannot be stacked with any voucher, right? Not even the RM100 (RM500 worth) reservation voucher and RM200 registered interest voucher. Am I correct?

so if no buy the RM100 voucher only lost RM300 right? since the 200 is from register of interest.

That was the EPP price during pre order. I bought S24U with that price and discount. Yes you may eligible for discount vouchers also if buy with EPP price

rebate the RM650 only, i sold my S21U outside

That is a crazy discount with EPP.
I will add this to the list of questions to ask when I visit Samsung store this weekend.

Thanks for sharing.

Hi Guys.. Can i ask if one gets the phone from telco example celcom i see many of their deals they sell the phone much cheaper as need to sign package.. is that better or would buying outright from Samsung bebetter?

it's the same. they just add a safety apps firmware level in the device so in case you did not pay the bills/stolen they can lock the phone.

Is Malaysia getting SD 8 elite ?
If yes, is the consumption is significantly better than previous gen? Leak says the battery capacity remains

Thanks bro.. Is the price offered by Telco usually cheaper?

sd8 elite, 80w charging, starting rm2.5k , hopefully

Wrong thread is it?

S25.

yup. usually cheaper but they usually bundle with line+data package.

Telco plans are rarely cheap when you factor in the monthly subscription costs, which can quickly add up and become overpriced, especially if you don’t fully utilize the data every month. That’s why I usually avoid postpaid plans and opt for alternatives that offer better flexibility and value.

Used to be like that. But these days some Telco do offer cheaper offer even after add in subscription cost.

For instance, ip16pm 256 RRP 6K, under U Telco package 68 per month for 2 years, the phone now cost only RM5K. So it's one thousand savings for a subscription cost thats acceptable

Colour sudah keluar! Apa colour korang mahu?

azhar75, bro.. gonna onboard S25U too?

Poison poison.

Waiting for Note27 with 7,100 mAh Silicon Carbon battery, 65W PD charging and 300MP Automatic Idiot AI periscope 200x zoom. Tengah kumpul duit sekarang dgn Abang Elon... LOL...

Agree with this, Siri 2.0 on my 15 pro seems like’meh’ je

Really? Will look into that later thanks

This post has been edited by aspire2oo6: Jan 10 2025, 08:24 AM

colours look really muted and unattractive

Only like special color. Later mesti ada... Lime Green team. ahahaha.

ICIC hope can get the device at special rate with Telco, last time S23U was foc when S24u comeout since company/agency got XX bill with them.

still no SiC battery. gonna lose in the battery life department compared to Chinese 8Elite flagships.

i got my s24u 512 under telco package for 4k device price...

Color look lame. Samseng out of idea, need to hire new designer.

Yes. Got my wife one unit since I'm already using U68 package, so no extra commitment monthly

If your company is paying for your bill, then of course must buy from Telco 😂

45W, 5000mah, above RM 5000.

Guarantee DOA or price drop like rain after few weeks months

From my understanding, it is cheap/similar if you currently use an "expensive" postpaid plan.

For example, I am using U38 from Umobile.
If I have to opt for a contract with Telco.

I have to top up the extra monthly fee just for the phone deal and benefits, which is already more than I need.
120GB from U38 is more than enough.

So, I believe buying outright with a voucher/installment is a better choice.
Or wait months after release if you want to go for the patient game.

Other than that, I found a website that lists and compares all the telcos and their prices before/after the contract.
technave.com/index.php?app=telco
