Hotlink has introduced their new prepaid plan which is called as Hotlink Bagus. The starter pack of Hotlink Bagus is only going to cost you RM5 (including free 10MB data*) and the rates are better compared to previous Hotlink plans.

Now, what are the rates like for this new Hotlink Bagus plan? The call rate is RM0.12/min for calls to Activ10 numbers. If you call a Maxis/Hotlink number, you will be charged RM0.20/min if you have RM10 and above credit. What will happen if you have less than RM10 credit? Then you will be charged RM0.24/min. The same concept applies when you call a non-Maxis number where you will be charged RM0.30/min (RM10 and above credit) or RM0.36/min (less than RM10 credit).

The Nokia Lumia 800 and Lumia 710 were launched yesterday in Malaysia. The launch event was grandly held in Pavilion, KL yesterday.

Now, you can get these phones not only from Nokia stores, but also from some popular telcos in Malaysia. Maxis is one of them.

Thanks to DiGi, we finally got to know the RRP (recommended retail price) of iPhone 4S in Malaysia.

The price is quite OK if you ask me. Yes, anything above RM2000 is definitely expensive for me (probably not for you) but at least, it is very much cheaper compared to what the sellers of imported iPhone 4S are offering.

Furthermore, it is glad to know that Apple Online Store will be selling the phone too. This eliminates the price hijack, which was done for iPhone 4 – get it on a contract or pay premium (much higher than RRP).

Maxis is being very quiet recently. If we look at few months ago, Maxis was the most active telco where any latest phones or tablets will be 1st launched by them. It is no longer the same recently.

Finally, iPhone 4S is on its way to Malaysia. It was quite disappointing that Malaysia was the 1st to receive iPhone 4 but when iPhone 4S was launched, our country’s name was totally missing from the list. If I am not mistaken, we are the 4th or 5th batch now.

If you realise, the price of Samsung Galaxy S II has gone down tremendously since it was launched, and this is the best selling phone at the moment.

Have you read my previous article regarding the 6% service tax on mobile prepaid where telcos has decided to push to its subscribers? I have a good news for you (which you have probably read in the newspapers anyway). The tax which was planned to be implemented on the 15th of this month has now been deferred.

Finally, Maxis has started their sales for the Bold 9900 and Torch 9810. I was very surprised that it took them so long (nearly 15 days after others telcos launched these phones).
