I don't think I got a lemon because I checked it carefully after purchase knowing this issue (because I was leaving for UK. Was back here for a short CNY break late Jan early Feb). That time official SME set still not available. So I bought AP set (6 months local shop warranty). Who knows, after two weeks in UK, I spot the issue after checking again one night. So I rooted it and install honeybar lo. Couldn't claim warranty. Felt a bit tulan back then.

Duhh..sorry to hear that bro.
I really no experience with Tab 7.7 but Uncle Benny using it. Maybe you can ask him.?
So far i have no issue with all my Amoled screen phone except the screen is a bit blueish..that's all hmm.gif

but the units on the unpacking is not running on finalized software, so there might still be room for improvement, still, best to wait retail unit review on that

It needs to improve, the score was too low for S600, anyway that was US edition only.

Others country will be Exynos.

The same can be said here bro..it happen to you doesn't mean all will be that way. I'm not saying it cannot happen..it just that not all user have this issue..so for me it's an isolate case or random case.
Yellow tint issue..yes..i know quite a lot of ppl having it and yet again it was on random. Samsung even change to display FOC for you if you have bad yellow tint.

yes, even the Exynos version is far too weak in benchmark when A15 suppose to have higher performance than Krait. For most cases optimization is one of the last phase for software development, so I guess the pre-released software they have tested today has not gone thru optimization yet.

I wonder if the benchmark scores are not good because the apps do not fully support the big.little architecture?

thats why i said you should google it and i also told you it's a quite well known issue. Meaning it's not actually an isolate or random case. but instead you go and say

No need to Google lar..

Just to give you an insight of what this issue is about, when this happens is not directly when you buy it you can check for it. It happens after a period of time where the pixels start to burn out and then it causes imbalance on the whole screen, example, some parts of the screen darker than the rest. and after an even longer period of time, the burned out pixel will become a dead pixel which of course will be a bigger problem.

that was b4 the official unveiling, but if you see the version number its clearly version 3.2, whereas the one on phonearena is using 3.0.x might have some difference? hmm.gif

waiting for hand-ons and benchmarks 1st to see whether the Exynos 5 Octa could live up to the expectations. smile.gif

cool stuff, just hoping perhaps they would sell the 32GB version at around RM2.2K at launch.

HTC One is great too, but judging from past year One X 1st build, gotta wait others to use em 1st and see whether got issues with it. Then let the judging begins!
