for note 5, if covered 100%, it will be halo effect along the side of tempered glass as note 5 screen is qurve a little bit on side.so, its normal TG for note 5 is not fully covered the screen.

Majority of the tempered glass in the market is 90% covered only. However there are few manufacturer brand that successfully produce 100% covered Note 5 Tempered Glass.

Buy from this seller no Holo issue 100% covered. Dont even worry about the curve issue because this tempered glass covered everything.

It is recommended to update your firmware because each firmware update brings improvement, stability and solve bugs in the phone.

Most important is updates give you better battery life because of improvement.

but from what i see is that all the updates are always draining battery life.
Haha. So I am wondering about it. I love the battery life of Note 5. I don't want to have issues with it. confused.gif

Haha very subjective.

Last time when firstly i got my Note 5 battery SOT only 3 hour to 3 hour 15 minute.

Then the more i use, manage it properly learn the phone behavior and set everything properly i notice SOT increase to 3 hour 45 minute to 4 hour 15 minute then now it stable in between 4 to 5 hour.

Above 5 hour SOT time i only achieve it three times. Majority time now i got is in between 4 to 5 hours SOT depends on how i use.

By the way always remember to off GPS / Location if you are not using and play with Mobile Data / Wifi.

If got Wifi use Wifi because Mobile Data suck battery alot.

The level of screen brightness also play very important role in preserving battery. The higher the screen brightness the higher battery consumption. For me i always put it at 50% during day time / 100% during under sun light / 0 to 25% during night time.

Yup.

Also, if ur 4g coverage sucks, switch to just 3g. Constantly struggling for 4g will suck even more batt than u think

Alright, i think I will update it. xD

I do practice what you suggest for all my phones and I have always had very nice battery life for my phone. innocent.gif

And Note 5 surpasses them all because well, its capacity is already very high itself. hehe.

So i've tested my note 5 battery life because many are saying about terrible battery life after update.

Here what i got:

Attached Image Attached Image

On Battery Usage: 18 Hours 55 Minutes
Screen on Time usage: 5 Hours

Package Disabler Pro Enabled,
Brightness around 30%,
40% on Wifi and 60% on 3G,
Normal Usage: web surf, call, whatsapp and fb. No gaming.

This still good right?

Can I have some feedback from Celcom users here, how is the service when using on Note5? Got data freeze issue? Do you get 4G+ or just 4G?

Im thinking to change from Digi to Celcom to test out their network.
