HTC Sensation XL on sale today, RM2,099 outright

Posted:  November 15, 2011   By: ccsoya   6 comments   

The HTC Sensation XL goes on sale today, no surprises there. DiGi is offering the device with its DG Smart Plan package for as low as RM1,399, no surprises there either. What is a surprise is the device’s pricing. At RM2,099, the HTC Sensation is spec-for-spec, too expensive.

For RM2,099 outright, you get 4.7-inch 800×480 pixel Android Gingerbread device with a single-core 1.5GHz Qualcomm processor with 768MB RAM. Of course there’s 16GB of internal storage, an 8MP rear camera with 720p HD video recording and a 1.3MP front camera as well.

But to price the HTC Sensation XL above the Motorola RAZR at RM1,999 and the Samsung Galaxy S II at RM1,899 and even the Samsung Galaxy Note at RM2,299 — all of which have faster processors, more RAM and shoot 1080p videos — will greatly affect the appeal of the device. HTC is banking on the Beats Audio technology for the premium pricing but how much emphasis do you place on sound quality over overall performance?

Update: We forgot to mention the HTC Sensation XE. At RM1,999 outright the Sensation XE brings a 1.5GHz dual-core processor with 768MB RAM, 1,730mAh battery and a 4.3-inch Super LCD Gorilla Glass display pushing 540×960 pixel resolution. You also get an 8MP rear camera that shoots 1080p videos, and you get the Beats audio feature as well. So what is the point of this lower specced yet more expensive Sensation XL then?

Also, how much better is the sound quality of the Sensation XL compared to the cheaper but more powerful dual-core devices? We’re no audiophiles but we’re guessing not by much. If given the choice we’d go for the more powerful dual-core devices that with the 720p HD displays and additional RAM. Better yet, we’d wait a little longer to find out how much the Galaxy Nexus is going to cost and maybe just get that.

HTC Sensation now at RM1,799

Posted:  October 4, 2011   By: soyacincau   No comments   

The HTC Sensation is also seeing a price cut with the outright pricing now revised to RM1,799 from RM1,999. When first announced in Malaysia, it was originally selling for RM2,299. Since Samsung Galaxy S II now selling for RM1,899 is a direct competitor, the price reduction is necessary to stay competitive.

In terms of telco bundling, DiGi has revised its bundling offer on DG Smart Plan 68 to as low as RM1,149 with 24 months contract while Maxis from as low as RM999 with 24 months contract of 3GB data plan. For more information, head over to DiGi’s HTC Sensation page or Maxis Android page.

Celcom & DiGi updates Samsung Galaxy S II subsidised pricing

Posted:  October 4, 2011   By: soyacincau   9 comments   


A few days back, Samsung has slashed the popular Samsung Galaxy S II by RM200. As a result, Celcom and DiGi has revised its subsidised bundled pricing which offers it as low as RM998 on Celcom and RM1199 on DiGi. This is a reduction as much as RM210 on Celcom and RM150 on DiGi.

So far there’s no change from U Mobile’s offering of RM849 on U Premium contract, which is one of the cheapest offering we’ve seen to date. Also surprisingly Maxis, the first telco to offer the Galaxy S II has removed all traces of the device from their website.

For more information, check out the Samsung Galaxy S II page on Celcom & DiGi.

BlackBerry Torch 9810 comes to DiGi

Posted:  September 15, 2011   By: ccsoya   No comments   

The BlackBerry Torch 9810 (RRP RM1,988) is now available on DiGi for as low as RM1,249 with its DG Smart Plan.

There’s really nothing out of the ordinary with regards to the DG Smart Plans that are on offer. You get to choose from two plans with two contract terms giving you four possible plan combinations. There’s the DG Smart Plan 48 with 1GB of mobile internet data and a flat rate of 15sen/min calls and 10sen/SMS to all networks for RM43/month. You can also purchase the Torch 9810 with a DG Smart Plan 68 which offers the same call and SMS rates as the DG Smart Plan 48 but offers 5GB mobile internet data. You can opt for 12- and 24-months contract period.

For both plans you will need to add RM10/month for BlackBerry Internet Service or RM20/month for BlackBerry Enterprise Server.

If you’re looking for a simple, hassle-free plan that comes with the BlackBerry 9810, DiGi is probably it. Simple and cheap. No guarantees on performance and coverage though.

DiGi offers DG Smart Plan 48 with monthly 1GB data

Posted:  August 17, 2011   By: soyacincau   7 comments   

Digi has revised its DG Smart Plan offering which now consists of DG Smart Plan 48, 68 and 88. This replaces DG Smart Plan lite which offered a pathetic 300MB data at RM33/month. With the new DG Smart Plan 48, you’ll get a decent 1GB data at only RM48/month, which is whole lot more for just RM15 extra.

Some their devices are also offered on Smart Plan 48 which includes Samsung Galaxy S II that’s offered at RM1,699 for 12 months contract or RM1,549 for 24 months contract with Smart Plan 48. This is a good move to offer phones with lower commitment contracts, which Maxis has started recently with Maxis Value First bundling.

The ever popular Smart Plan 68 remains unchanged and finally the Smart Plan 88 has been revealed on their site which now offers additional 50 minutes of call and 50 SMS within DiGi network every month. Call rates are the same for all 3 plans at 15sen/min for calls and 10 sen/SMS to all network. If your month bills reach a certain amount, there’s tiered discounts on your monthly commitments too. BIS services are an extra option at RM10/month while BES is at RM20/month. As usual, there’s a RM5/month rebate if you opt for auto-billing.

All 3 DG Smart Plans offer unlimited internet access where you won’t get charged extra for exceeding your usage but your speeds will be throttled. Here’s the interesting part, while DG Smart Plan 68 and 88 are throttled to 128kbps after exceeding, the lowest DG Smart Plan 48 will be throttled to a pityful 5kbps!

No doubt the Smart Plan 48 is a much more reasonable plan for low usage users with a decent amount of data. However we are still unconvinced with DiGi’s issues with their mobile data coverage and performance. When DiGi launched their 3G service, they promised consistency which offered an average of 700kbps at all times. Today we can’t say the same anymore and they seriously need to buck up and fix their network.

Samsung Galaxy S II now on DiGi from RM1349

Posted:  August 8, 2011   By: soyacincau   3 comments   


As hinted yesterday, Samsung Galaxy S II is finally available on DiGi.

It is offered at RM1599 for 12 months and RM1349 for 24 months contract with DG Smart Plan. As comparison, Maxis is offering the Galaxy S II at RM1599 for 12 months and RM1399 for 24 months with either 1.5GB/3.0GB data bundle. Surprisingly the Galaxy S II is more expensive than expected as the subsidy amount is less as compared to the HTC Sensation.

There’s a EPP Credit Card offer where the Galaxy S II can be yours from RM128.30/month for 24 months installment.

For the first 100 at their Berjaya Times Square & KLCC roadshows , you’ll get a free Bluetooth heatset worth RM149.

DiGi has hinted on their Facebook page that they will be offering the Samsung Galaxy S II with full details coming out tomorrow. This comes about a month after the Samsung Galaxy S II availability with Maxis. Usually devices are only exclusive to an operator for a limited time and this happens to be the case for the Galaxy S II.

It is expected that the Galaxy S II will be bundled with their DG Smart Plan with 12 and 24 months options with subsidised pricing to be similar or slightly cheaper than their current HTC Sensation offering.

Will DiGi offer a firesale for the first hundred units? All shall be revealed tomorrow.

DiGi offers 5GB data for RM88 with HTC contract purchase

Posted:  July 13, 2011   By: ccsoya   2 comments   

DiGi‘s got a special offer for all you HTC fans out there. The DG Smart Plan 88 is available for a limited time and comes with 5GB data usage a month. The catch is you have to sign-up for a 24-months contract and purchase a HTC phone which is not too bad considering for an addition RM20 a month over the normal DG Smart Plan 68 — which offers 3GB data usage a month — you get 2GB a month extra. The HTC phone subsidies are decent to.

The offer is valid at the following DiGi centre only and is valid from 11 to 31 July 2011
DiGi Retail Centre, Seberang Jaya
DiGi Retail Centre, Pulau Tikus
DiGi Retail Centre, Ipoh

DiGi tells us that they could include other centres in the future but this has not be confirmed.

Our only concern with DiGi is not the plan but the state of its network. Complains on Twitter of about DiGi’s sporadic data and BIS performance have been too common of late and it looks like things are not letting up. Let’s not forget that there’s also the incident where DiGI’s website was done for more than a few days last month. More worrying is that DiGi has yet to fully address these issues. Getting an explanation on what is going on proved to be even more difficult.

Thanks @tigervyh for the tip!
