i don't use the iris at all though

bigger screen also a bit only

s-pen also use kadang kala...not heavily depending on it

i cam to similar conclusion... so now, i'm actually open to normal S series... though i'd still want sth that is 5.5" to 5.7"...

**sigh**

i'll see how...

Anyone called samsung careline to ask what's the next step? Really frustrated that this is happening to this phone. One of the best phones apart from the explosion issue sad.gif

Sadly to say, none, bro. Since you said available on sale in Malaysia, there's really not much choices out there. Some said it's iPhone 7, but that's in different system, so it's really up to you. Other than that, Oneplus 3 is the closest in term of performance.

iphone have good ecosystem and app. but their hardware are a bit outdated and features & functions too, also consider over priced.

But no choice will take it if Note 7 recalled

ahh... you need to define 0 and 10.

anyway, if 0 means not affected and 10 is dem affected till i cannot do my work. i'd rank it at 8. honestly, it could be 10 since we're talking abt the curved part of the screen and not the screen in general.

i cannot put a TP which helps me have a peace of mind when i carry it around -- i prefer to replace cracked SP rather than the screen itself.

i have never found how the curved screen made me any more efficient or effective. in fact, from my earlier sharing, it made me less efficient.

does it look nicer to me? nope... still the same. if wanna talk look nice, do away with front button. having used P9 for a month or so... i love the positioning of the sensor at the back. unlocking is also easy. and if ppl must know, if screen facing up, you can opt to use pin to unlock... smile.gif

so... ya... curved screen. useless. to me.

so you going for p9 plus / s7?

my advise... dun bother to call them yet. MY was still sleeping when this happened. even first recall... it was messy in MY.

my extra advice: if you have spare phone, back up your stuff, power down Note7 and use spare phone.

if don't have spare phone, then every day, pray harder... and wait for Samsung to announce their plans for Malaysia.

and in the meantime, think about the next phone -- very likely Samsung will just offer full refund. that way, if wanna buy s7 or whatever, use the refund money to buy. less messy compared to having to exchange for phone there'd usually be more paperwork within Samsung.

so... is this thread still going to talk about using the phone naked, which case to buy...? or...? or is it now that you finally accept, everyone else can talk about what they have been talking about -- note7 fire risk?

Wait for a bit bro. Later sure got some forumers will say it's none of our business, said we are spreading fake/negative news, said we are talking rubbish until so many pages, etc..

Now, Samsung official statement is there, instructions been given. Those are facts. If they still cannot accept, if they still say we are nonsence, then it's their problem.

i listed my criteria earlier. one of which is budget. either outright or telco plan, that's what i wanna spend. nothing more. already original budget was rm1.6k... went up for the note7... well, coz note7 is good. the rest... cannot justify the extra $$$...

p9plus... my telco not offering. and outright... just too much for the specs.

i see how la... stick back to note2... just get myself a new battery. then wait and wait...

With the latest issues on the recall Note 7, I have to relegate my Note 7 as my secondary phone again and promote my IP6S Plus as my primary phone again. With Samsung already halted the production of Note 7 I can see dark future on Note 7. All airplane will still ban the Note 7 and thats why I cannot use it as my primary phone as I do travel on airplane sometimes.

at this rate... unlikely they will redo note7. then again, really depends on the situation and what is the cause.

but note8 already in development. do they wanna take out some manpower just to fix this issue? and the note7 name already make ppl scared... is it worth the effort and time?

s8 is around the corner... they still have other mid range and decent phones to be launched soon like the A series.

so, better just to let Not7e rest in peace.

Note6 must be preparing a welcome party for the Note7

btw, P9Plus is a good choice. smile.gif

My only list of potential replacement phones are

- Note5 (because of the s-pen)
- S7egde (the nearest to note7 as of specs)
- Ip7+ (resale value)

Although I don't really prefer iphones (last iphone was ip4) but I need a phone that have high resale value because I still love note series and I would wait for Note8 next year.. So I need a phone that I can sell with good price to change to Note8.. I doubt S7edge will have high resale value next year??.. although i would love to change to s7edge because the specs are mostly the same..

If Samsung still want to redo Note 7, first thing they have to do is to let the people know exactly what's the root cause of all these mess up. Open and transparent. No more excuses. Without doing this, people won't buy it anymore no matter how hard they push the sales. People will not be able to bear with 3rd recall or 4th recall anymore. Samsung should not test the limit and patience of their loyal customers.
