The Corp plan is std 2yrs - yes, revert to normal after 2 yrs (unless your Corp plan has other options)
No link since we were told at the counter (Pleasant surprise) of the discount and applied.

Actually a lot of things can be covered with the "name". Do you know how cheap is the manufacturing costs for a phone? Say iPhone for example. It's actually dirt cheap. You're paying for the "brand". So they can say the earphones are worth $198 coz its "branded".

Same goes to macdonalds. I heard the patty is only a few cents, like 2 or 3 cents kind. But we are paying for the brand~

Unless in shops if they sell for $20 then we really need to get explanation from LG already.

SRP is always inflated to allow mark up for profits.

However cost of product is one thing, cost of designing, prototyping and also production and profits for channel partners has to be factored in.

Branding is not just a name, it is an assurance you don't buy a lemon or if we do, get after service support.

Anyway, B&O has never been known to produce good value for money products. Usually can get better sounding stuff for less if you aren't into the brand.

I took this from the youtube video comment:

Iphone 7 cost my friend like $830.
Just say $300 phone
$100 development
$100 taxes
$100 stores, employees, etc

$230 PURE profit.

A lot to factor in, but in this case they are overquoting $20(worth) of product 10 times more. A bit ridiculous. Its like I give you a normal looking red apple but then I go paste Apple sticker on it sell you for $30, you eat already feel that no difference from the $1 apple, feel cheated also ma :s22:

for the price that is cheap, the replacement is still worth it. I already replaced my SBH 80 once and will continue using till there is even better one at an reasonable price

Any model intro?



My sbh80 spoil in a few Months. The buttons even drop off.

Any good earphone to intro for this phone? Prefer very bassy bass. 😊

Just bought B&O H5 today from Stereo at Plaza Singapura at $341.1 after 10% member discount ( where you can join at the time you make the purchase ). Very impressive sound but battery life only 5 hours versus most are 8 hours.

Gorgeous earpiece, but some reviews I've read mention the braided cable being too stiff which forces the earbuds to pop out of your ears...has that happened to you yet?

Quite stiff indeed but not to the extend of forcing the earbuds out!
