Clear coat isn't 100% coverage and it doesn't cover the corner edges.

Was at Sunway Putra Samsung store just now. Black best colour! And also best colour if you use your phone when the lights are off. Other colours would be reflective brows.gif

Also saw one dood just now who was the first 1k pre order. Damn lucky sia.

Anyone can comment on the screen whether it displays white colour properly? My Nexus 5's IPS LCD has a darn accurate white. Compare this to the older Samsung phones like the S3 or S4, they are mostly yellowish whites.

Apparently basic mode has better accuracy, at around 6500K temperature which is the reference value.

Kinda disappointed because the phone cannot display white properly, it's yellowish instead. I've become accustomed to nearly perfect whites all these years using a colour calibrated monitor and my Nexus 5 using a IPS LCD can display whites almost flawlessly. Such a turn down..

Hey guys, just want to share, read up a bit and using Dark theme could save battery, due to Samsung screen pixel display, less bright pixel will not consume much battery.

There a theme called Material Dark, quiet sleek! You can download via Samsung Theme store @ Settings > Theme, search for Material Dark or click on this link http://www.samsung.com/global/themestore/i...rk&SITE_CODE=my

Was trying out the S7E again at the Samsung store just now.

Where is the option for "Easy Screen On" and "Assisted touch"?

All these version of tempered glasses are ugly. The cut-out not following Samsung wording, the light button cut out also ugly. For people that prefer to turn off the capacitive light button, this glass make it looks permanently there js like those cheapo Samsung phone.

Really hope there will be transparent version.

Click on the link. There is a transparent version..

Do you need to press the home screen to activate the fingerprint reading or just touch on it like the iphone fingerprint reader?

Even on the iPhone you still need to press it first to activate the fingerprint reading right?

Eh I thought iPhone just touch on the button only? It can be done without even waking up the phone.

Where got so long wo in real life, normal daily usage browse web, read mail, Facebook, whatsapp, make a few calls, less than 8 hours battery flat. I tried to tweak as much by disable most thing still same. I expect this phone when normal daily use can last me at least 24 hours interval before full charge again, it's impossible. Almost same like the small batteryiPhone 6 only....disappointing

Post your battery stats here including the graph and screen on time.

My battery is pretty poor. My device do freeze up at some point.

I don't think SC will entertain poor battery life for inspection/replacement. hmm.gif

That's bad. Have you tried asking Samsung Msia yet?

I really like this case

I say any case with a bumper is not revealing the beauty of this phone.

The samsung design team really done an outstanding job.

Had my eyes on this cover since s6 edge.

Not the most protective cover. But definitely makes the phone looks like rm4000 phone laugh.gif

Using Clear Coat.

But some may not like it because it feels 'rubbery' and it is not exactly cheap at RM160 (clear version). A glass SP or a high-quality film SP feels much smoother.

Huh? Clear coat and a case?

That case is a Samsung Clear View case right

From what I've observed so far, I think the thinnest cases are Ringke Slim and Spigen Ultra Fit. Anything better or comparable?

P/s: I know the Spigen Liquid is their thinnest case but it's a transparent TPU :3

I used to like it but the colour doesn't match a black S7 Edge. It detracts from that sexy colour tongue.gif

It's not an zoculus. Oculus Rift is another product costing around USD700 or something.

QUOTE(TOMEI-R @ Mar 21 2016, 10:51 AM)
That is the silicone type of SP. It makes the screen less smooth to touch open but its the only screen protector that will stick on phones with the Edge screen which is the only advantage of these type of screen protector. And for Rm160, its freaking expensive.  sweat.gif

Clear coat is a "full body" application but the coverage isn't 100%. I don't like it because it doesn't cover the corner edges of the phone which are probably most vulnerable.

Got this yesterday and so far liking it. Can give very good protection and nice feel too. The built is very solid. Top class quality. Also ordered Spigen Cystal Shield case.

Was going around and thinking on the slim cases but they dont give much protection. S7e is a very nice and premium looking phone but kind of prone to drop. I am not using any SP since so far. Cannot find any good SP that can solve the edge design. As for tempered glass, many bad experience from S6e users with tempered glass.

Still using without SP while waiting for a reliable SP.

It's kinda thick bro. You compare with the Spigen Ultra Fit or the Ringke Slim, you'll know what I'm trying to look for.

My casing from Baseus just arrived.

I like it due to the thinness. I have another one to let go, PM me if interested. smile.gif

Looks pretty slim and nice. Care to share the exact model name and link? smile.gif
