Arriving at The Royale Chulan Hotel Kuala Lumpur to a sea of yellow SCSL T-shirts worn by the staffs, I did not believe initially that on top of giving out the Mi363 for free, SCSL is topping up RM1 for each user. The Switch STAR NEO Mi363 is catered for users who want to realize the benefits of a smartphone for the first time.

In order to make the experience of owning the first smartphone a reality, Switch Star Neo Mi363 is being offered for free as part of the Pakej Komunikasi Belia Scheme. Offered to 1.5 million youths in Malaysia, aged between 21 to 30 years, it was basically a calculation of the phone price RM349 minus the RM200 rebate, and minus a further Switch Up Rebate worth RM150.

For non Pakej Komunikasi Belia consumers, Switch Star Neo Mi363 can be purchased at a reasonable recommended retail price of RM349. Simplicity is the key word here, which I do agree to an extent. The device itself strike a strong balance between performance and price, granting the user access to a range of smartphone features.

During the launch, Spice CSL International also announced its latest campaign which was in collaboration with Tune Talk Sdn Bhd. If it's from Tune Talk, we would be sure it will be something really unique and value for money. True enough, while the device is absolutely free under the PKB Program, subscribers get way more balue under the Tune Talk program.

Tune Talk will be giving away 300MB Data, 30 local SMS and 30 minutes of local calls, worth RM20 in the first month upon activation of the plan with the smartphone. In addition to that, subscribers who stay loyal will enjoy a further 200MB data per month from the 2nd to the 6th month. Now that's what I call value for money.
