1st time using expensive phone without any protection. No casing, no SP. lol
But after 29/9, must apply both la. tongue.gif

the in-hand feeling for note7 really nice.
so far after 17 days of usage without SP, so far no scratch yet.

fully aware about it. thats why i had ordered armorsuit case friendly (favorite SP since installed it on S7E), waiting for delivery to install on new phone. now just a temporary phone, so just enjoy the feeling of real glass and im surprised despite people said it prone to scratch, somehow it's not in my case.

Not sure which part you seen the dual lens is gimmick, the sample post at Cnet is already using digital zoom as 5x is already digital zoom and it still clearance than last year one. As for the maximum zoom which is 10x and this is digital zoom. If digital zoom 10x can be clear then no point having optical zoom anymore.

Next year pretty sure Samsung release dual lens, you better said is gimmick as well.

Beside HTC the earlier did dual lens and nothing much helping, others company dual lens is really useful.

  • Huawei P9/ P9 Plus - you get pure black and white photos thanks to it black and white sensor.
  • LG G5, V20 - you get extreme wide angle photo where no phone able to.
  • iPhone 7 plus - you get same clarity 2x optical zoom output as without zoom. This 2x optical zoom also directly helping the 5x digital zoom clearance than before.

*
for me, the iphone 7plus really excel in the zoom part, the clarity is superb (from CNET pics). the night shot and indoor shot can riva/lbeat galaxy 7 series (still like win some, loose some).

even though samseng dont use dual lens yet on their phone, but from news, chinese phone maker start to purchase dual lens module from samseng.

my cousin recently bought P9Plus, play with it for more extensive time, the B&W really2 nice along with manual/pro mode. but for direct point and shoot auto mode, P9Plus kinda let down with its dual lens system.

Using the matte one. It have the case version. It should fit properly if using with case. But mine is UAG. So have to trim a bit in the corner to get no lifting issues. Other than that is perfect.
But the only thing is money. Terbang RM180... biggrin.gif
Anyway got lifetime warranty so no issues for me.
*
the matte one have glittering red/blue or rainbow effect?

You think too much, the exploded issue will gone pretty soon but the banned in airport might not be that fast gone, it needs to assure 100% safe then just can withdraw it.

It is normal when something happen, sure everybody talk about it and this not means people talk about it is hater. No surprise people posting here as well, but once it get settle then nobody will talk anymore as no news about it anymore as well.

The scar will only be there unless the replacement still happening explosion or others big hardware issue.

By the way you mentioned one of the person here never post any good news and only appear here when something bad happen, nothing wrong also, what he post is just a news where everywhere is talk now, some people only post hot topic, but that does't means he is a hater, if those news can scared people also never is a bad news, now really is not a good time to using Note7.

Here is open forum not Fanboyism forum, why need to so protective when heard something bad on your purchase phone. It just a phone and it is real news now Note7 can exploded, once this gone nobody will take about it.

Your friends (I forgot is you or another member here mentioned) said don't closed to me if you using Note7, this is real common, it is just a humors + some possible self protect. Maybe the user don't care and not scared but does't means surrounding people also want to take the risk where the phone possible exploded anytime.

i would love is Samseng can give option in their camera for color and sharpening mode like they provide screen color temp option.

Bought the official leather case yesterday.
I do wish that the black leather slightly in darker black.
Have nice in-hand feeling. Much better than any spigen case that used before.
Top portion only have slight raise lips, while bottom part pretty exposed.
Pictures as below:

I also have it and love it very much.

I only using it occasionally because the protection is not as the TPU Transparent Back Cover which I almost using all the time.
*
For TPU I preferred Spigen Ultra Hybrid Black. Too bad the back easy to get scratch and easily attract fingerprints (ringke fusion even worse).

Now waiting for below case to arrive. Maybe in 1-2 weeks time

Uncle Benny, when you bought note7 from courts, did they gave micro USB traveller adaptor aside from usual powerbank and wireless charger?

Feel nice and good. Pretty slim, comparable with spigen thin fit.
No sharp edges.
Actually the leather layer not that thick, but good enough. Still have leather smell

This item is not stated in the preorder
Some buyers get it while some didn't
I was surprised it came with the phone

i see. thanks. smile.gif


QUOTE(mydragoon @ Sep 18 2016, 10:53 AM)
standard package in the phone:
* phone
* manual
* charger + type-c  cable
* usb adaptor
* microUSB

from the power bank, there's another microUSB adaptor, besides cable (microUSB).

then there's the travel adaptor with microUSB cable. this is meant for use with wireless charger stand.

if you don't have the above, means your box had missing accessories.
*
the box was sealed and complete with in-box accessories.
just dont have additional box of travel adapter.

It is in my signature - Huawei P9 Plus.
You do a wrong way on your original post, the video is not playable because you put as https://youtu.be/seSJvwF68-0, the correct way is put as seSJvwF68-0.

Wrong

Guys, still remember that Samsung claimed that Note 7 China version is totally safe since they are using different battery factory? Well, it seems that China users could not escape from the fiasco as well.

Today latest news from China, still is mandarin article at this moment (I will try to post the english news once it's out). According to the owner, it was happening during he was browsing the phone.

http://item.btime.com/36blblj753890j8rfb248a1j3ke

Pics and proof of receipt attached. From the pic itself, we can see that the battery was swelling up.

Multiple of assumptions out there. Mostly assume either Samsung China battery also has its flaws as well, or the root cause is not the battery itself. Anyway, this made the 1st Note 7 battery explosion case in China.

Hmph. This is dangerous. Haishhh
