To all our customers, friends, members of the forum and partners, we wish you Happy Chinese New Year!
I just placed order for the NEO S…
Was debating btw it vs UHD3000 but with the current offer, it makes sense to top up the few 100s for the upgrade. I do wished I can insert additional storage… I guess it’s not too much issue to just plug a USB external storage, although cosmetically not ideal.
