News & Reviews:   Samsung Galaxy Note II postpaid plan

With the end of the year 2013 looming ahead, DiGi are offering a number of smartphones that include the Samsung Galaxy Ace 3, Samsung Galaxy Grand Quattro, Samsung Galaxy Note II, Samsung Galaxy S4, HTC One, Sony Xperia Z and Sony Xperia C for FREE. The catch is that you have to sign up for either the DG SmartPlan 88 or DG SmartPlan 148 under a 24-month contract. For more details check out the table and links in this article.

With the impending release of the next version of the Samsung Galaxy Note II, the price for the existing version has dropped from RM1999 to RM1799. This has resulted in a price drop for the phablet under telco plans and DiGi's current Samsung Galaxy Note II plans now starts from RM669. You'll need to sign up for the DG SmartPlan 58/88/148 under a 24 month contract but if you're a long-time DiGi Postpaid user (more than 12 months) you don't need to pay the advance payment.

Maxis seems to be dropping prices on their smartphone bundles on a weekly basis as this week they revise their Samsung Galaxy Note II bundles so that you can buy one for as low as RM1149. Of course this means having to sign up for a contract under Maxis but this time Maxis are being a bit more flexible in terms of their contracts.

As the weeks go by, another major smartphone telco bundle drops in price and this time Celcom has decided to do that for the Samsung Galaxy Note II. While previous bundles saw the price dip down to RM1999, Celcom are now offering the Samsung Galaxy Note II from as low as RM1458. The lower subsidized price is available for their Celcom First Prime, Premier or Elite on the condition that it comes with a Mobile Internet plan and a 12 months or 18 months contract. See the table below for the details on all the bundles:

With Samsung churning out new models almost daily, it was bound to happen eventually and therefore DiGi has announced the Samsung Galaxy Note II at a very much decreased price with their new DG Smart Plan 88. When the Samsung Galaxy Note II first came out it retailed at a pretty high RM2299 so this price drop is a little bit more than RM1000 but according to DiGi you save about RM740 on the Galaxy Note II based on the retail price of RM1999. This savings is based on the DG Smart Plan 88 for a contract of 24 months.
