Greenhills sold samsung smartphones: how good a deal really?

**wowiesy** · February 14th, 2013 08:31 AM

Nagtanong tanong na ako sa mga shops sa gh ( dun sa theater mall ba yun or sa shoppesville- yung may foodcourt sa baba na may mannhann dati na now ay vietnamese food na).

Also did sa mga SM Cyberzone shops... Samsungs are about 3k to 5k cheaper sa gh vs sa cyberzone...

Ang question ko, how can both claim to give manufacturers warranty 1year for that big a price difference?

Ano ano pa ang ibang angle na dapat tignan?

Ano bang mga models ng Samsung, bro.

Last time I checked sa isang Samsung outlet sa SM, Note2 is P28K and S3 is P25K... (cash only)

Magkano sila sa GH? P25K and P22K respectively? Good deal kung ganoon!

wow! 21K na lang Galaxy S3. nasa 30K pa yan sa Samsung store.

Ang difference kasi ng mga stores na nasa GH compared sa Cyberzone is yun warranty. Karamihan ng mga nasa Cyberzone ay may Samsung PH warranty. Yun sa GH, yun iba doon Samsung PH warranty, yun iba naman store warranty (grey unit). Yun sa mga online stores naman kaya mura, eh grey unit phones din. Another factor bakit mas mura ang nasa GH is yun rental cost. Alam naman natin na mahal ang renta ng pwesto sa SM compared sa GH.

May mga Samsung Outlet sa SM? Nag google ako wala ako mahanap sa Makati. Sa Digital Walker P29.990 Note 2. Mas mahal pa sila sa Samsung???

^^^ Sis,- there is actually one here at SouthMall,- third floor...

At that price(compared to S3),- purchase of Note2 is a no brainer.

Any Samsung Phone that does not come with a NTC sticker are likely grey market phones, probably sourced from Singapore, Australia or even the Middle East. Their chargers are not the local two flat plug. They do not come with Samsung Philippines 1-year Warranty. Samsung allows change unit if proven defective. They are cheaper, but only come with 6 months store warranty. Most probably repair sa tab-tabi sa VMall...

kung 3-4k lang naman difference ng grey phone compared sa legit samsung phone, eh dun ka na sa samsung phone covered ka pa ng 1yr warranty. Baka hokus pokus lang warranty ng store sa grey phone.
