I've pulled the trigger and gotten Samsung A50 Malaysia export set (6gb ram, 128gb) from Lazada. $358 after discount.

Note 7 priced too close already. Pay less than $100 more for a better screen and processor

Nice. Real diff between RmN7 and A50 is not the camera or processor or the price, is the screen. The super amoled is a daily joy.
And A50 is real available while Rmn7 is still playing hide and seek. Given the unconfirmed issues with their local distributor, if end of this week (when mi9 goes on sale on by Mi on Lazada) Rmn7 still no official launched in Sin, it may very well signal no Rmn7 in distributor's Mi physical store.

saw there are some people selling RMN7Pro in Carousell, is it safe to get one? Are those China set? And how's it diff with local set in terms of warranty and network band? I assumed we can flash the ROM over with international ROM. Thank you.

A50 best for the amoled display and new CPU chip.

But If note 7 pro sells for the same price as A50 then it's a no brainer not to get it.

Note 7 4/64 in Lazada going for $275.. After $20 Stanchart discount becomes $255 with 1 month warranty by seller.

Will you take up the above or go JB buy the same at RM799 which is $266 and receive 1 year warranty? Please take into account I go JB every month and it is not a hassle.

If Malaysian warranty is recognized here, $11 for 1 year warranty is very worth it if you ask me (battery itself cost more than $11).

Would go for JB's $266. Have used FB to msg Paradigm & KSL resellers, they don seem to carry stock and 'stock will come in next week'. So if you are successful in getting from JB retail outlet, do update us.

btw, RMN7 units from HK, do they have Global or Cn Rom?

I'm camping for a good sales price for Note 7 but I'm seriously confused, so need experts' advice here.
1. Those Note 7 Pro as advertised, are they genuinely available, since Pro is just launched in India but not in our region?
2. Those Note 7 sets (non Pro), are they using 48M camera? Or is it Note 7 from India is 12M only but units from HK or China are 48M? If Note 7 got 48M camera version, are these the Sony IMX586 sensor or the Samsung GM1?
3. Is it all Note 7 sets are non global rom and need to get sellers to pre-install Play Store? Since there's no global rom available (from what I read), any problems if continue to use China Rom?
Many thanks in advance. :)

1. Note 7 Pro likely export set from China
2. 48mp. China, MY and SG sets. All Samsung sensor
3. MY and SG sets using SG rom. China using China rom. A lot of limitations (read online)

For those that bought the Note 7, both the China and Malaysia sets. May I know what kind of charger you get in the box? High speed charger? Or 5v x 1A charger?

Suddenly everyone start talk A50, very tempted get this play play.

Haha, was thinking to get Redmi Note7, but just nice Samsung launched A50. Similar size and specs. Samsung also priced it along with Xiaomi pricing. So now we have other option. Screen definitely Samsung wins due to Super Amoled. Bad thing about Xiaomi, heard it don't come with fast charging adapter out of the box
