Samsung uses every trick it knows without shame.

Coincidentally today secret documents released show that they lied about sales, as many have suspected.

      S5 is minor improvment over S4 so get that one for half the price..it's a great deal in my opinion..it's fast enough great screen good camera all you need

        No wonder. S5 has been launched in 125 countiries, while S4 just in 60. So taking into account this fact, I would say that S5 sales are poorer that S4: 2 times more countries and just 30% sales increase (not even sales, just supplies to partners). Samsung is trying to convince through media that S5 is very best and succesful device, but in fact it is not completely true. I belive that final figures by the end of S5 life cycle will prove that.

          TheNeighbor, 13 Apr 2014Sorry, but the XZ wasn't exactly so successful as you are i... moreif xperia Z wasn't that successful, then why this samsh!t made s4 active and s5 water resistant.....
          while overheating occur to every device with krait cpu and cortex a15..
          Z2 overheats only when you record a 4k video for longer duration..Z2 beats up S5 and m8 in camera department....and Sony has responded to gap issues by replacing or fixing the unit....so, stop lying..

                AnonD-168288, 13 Apr 2014I won't go and buy from where you buy, go to lelong.com.my ... moreYes I do prefer buy online on Lelong or COD at Cheras or Lowyat but usually they sell only limited colors only..

                Those price that i've posted are from expansys, ipmart, lazada or Superbuy I think..

                But what why so haste? Let us wait for ol good few months more who knows there'll be a significant price drop, such as ipad mini retina, compact z1 etc..

                In the meantime, i'd rather go for samsung ativ 9 with SSD 128GB now, the current price is just only for RM15XX, more value for money right?

                    AnonD-249431, 13 Apr 2014 2 gb ram ???? lolllllzzzzz even 1 year old xperia Z is ha... moreSorry, but the XZ wasn't exactly so successful as you are imagining it had been. Poor battery, terrible screen angle and overheating aren't positive features of the XZ. These even carried on with the Z Ultra and Z1. Although the Z2 has imprOved its screen at long last, those gaps and overheating aren't attractive.

You get the same warranty period anyway.

                              I knew this would be the case. I had really high hopes for s5. The only problem was just the build design. If that was fixed, this would have killed every phone out there. Dfinitely. This is from a Htc fan and a user.

                                    No phone is worth waiting in lines. Whenever I read this kind of news I lose faith in humanity. I don't know if it's just me but it just feels so stupid.
                                    Maybe I can understand kids that wait in lines for new console realeases but thats it.

                                      Yet so expensive here in Malaysia, same as Iphone 5s

                                      Samsung GS5 - RM2099-2399
                                      Sony Z2 -RM2399

                                      More costly than any midrange i5 ultrabook here with SSD 128GB..So go figure

                                        I believe most of the buyer is a broker, who resell the phone to another area with extra price.
