Samsung Galaxy S23 series

[nuscape]

Last night i did the pre order from SES after seeing Samsung online keep pushing the date to March. At least with SES still can get it this weekend. Since i don't have EPP so through SES is cheaper with $88 + $100off Citibank. SES got no 1TB so opted for 512GB. Of course can't get exclusive color from SES but Green is not bad. You can call nearest SES to check citibank promo & when can get the phone. Trade up price at SES also higher compared to online, at least during this Feb.
Samsung online waiting time more than 1 month is really a joke.

Telco no free storage upgrade unless its Singtel. Voucher from M1 and Starhub is to buy Samsung products which are really over priced.

This is mine which I posted earlier.

Singtel XO plus 72 - $57.61 monthly (CIS)

Samsung S23 Ultra 512 GB $1020
- $100 new XO 72 Plan sign-up
- $80 Singtel Red
- $88 launch offer
- free caller ID and Auto roam
Total - $752

Total device and plan over 24 month period $2134.64

I initially wanted to get from Samsung Online @ $1640. But by signing up with Singtel over 24 month period, I effectively spend $20 monthly for my mobile service plan compared to buying from Samsung online.

honestly speaking, it is all in the mind bro... some see need to fork out 1.7k one shot heart pain, so they pay lower upfront fee and slowly repay monthly via higher phone bill. but i calculated, it is ALMOST the same. so i rather be contract fee, suka suka just port to other telco to try

Agree with you statement, Bro! - the cost is almost the same, but SIM only option gives the freedom to move to other service providers, while retaining the present mobile number.

Agree. It's almost the same. Even if there is difference will be very slight. Also depends if you want 5G, auto roam etc. MVNO can go as cheap as $15.14 for a similar Singtel plan I got.

Yeah, good thing is dun have to pay full price upfront and can get rebates from monthly bills via Credit card.

Still got alot of people go teleco sign thier plans why ?? as you noticed he posted CIS plans .. so most likely the company can claim phone bill also .. so they close 2 eyes no lose at all .

yup. even with CIS discounts, it isnt a big difference in the TCO for 2 years UNLESS your company sponsor your phone bill, then of course i HIGHLY recommend to go sign contract. company pay money why not?

you can try .. they only can reject or give you lower price value if they inspect the phone after

 

[Advancer]

I think the phone camera or lighting no good. The lime I saw in store definitely doesn't look like what you have shared.
