the processor not powerful enough.

You're right. I retested my playback settings and found that the first test I ran and thought that it was on software decoding was still hardware accelerated.

The Exynos isn't able to decode 2K video fast enough but on hardware decoding, it's fine. I don't think you'll want to rely on software only decoding as the power draw would be much higher than hardware decoding.

For any bro who is still curious, Samsung Mobile Singapore replied my post on FB:

Hi Alex Tan, the Entertainment Pack includes 3 free issues of SPH Magazines and two months of unlimited viewing on Toggle Prime at $1. Thank you.

I bought mine from samsung shop at Bugis, it wasn't plastic wrapped but the seal is there. I asked if it's really brand new cos I spotted an intact seal over another. He prob knew what I was thinking and he said samsung opens the boxes to do some upgrade of firmware and install some apps. He took out all other boxes to show me and yea all seals were intact.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for info...

Ya...i often see an intact seal over a cut seal on many electronics products...sometimes i will just reject the sale and go elsewhere....

yea the seal thing is kind of common for Samsung products I realise, if I see many many seals over each other, i wouldn't get it.. but since he showed me all the remaining boxes and it's just 1 seal over another, I took his words.. haha.. :)

Anyone want to swap 10.5' wifi 32GB (bronze) Tab s with my 8.4' wifi 16GB Tab S. I'm willing to top up the price difference.

I find the 8.4 too small and too light for my liking. Prefer a bigger screen.

I'm also willing to let go @ $50 less retail price of $598 (From Harvey Norman).
