QUOTE(attw @ Apr 12 2017, 08:52 AM) Yup, I use the iPhone as my primary device but keep a secondary Android device going, and for that purpose it's good to get a 2nd hand previous gen flagship - can get savings of up to 50%  50%? Not with iPhones. Unless u talking about 2nd hand sets.

QUOTE(Andrewtst @ Apr 18 2017, 08:27 PM) Boring? I don't find it boring at all. It looks very gorgeous. S8+ looks great and this also look very great. S8+ back actually not my liking. For now, only LG G6 back is very gorgeous. Let's just hope the red tint screen issue doesn't impact ip8 as Apple is getting oled from Sammy also.

QUOTE(Andrewtst @ Apr 19 2017, 11:20 PM) I think I probably buy S8+ first, too far already. Now wait to touch it 1st and later decide. Don't expect good 2nd hand value ya, especially near ip8 launch date. Wouldn't it be perfect if we can JB iOS into s8?? This post has been edited by 666devil: Apr 20 2017, 09:10 AM

QUOTE(MooTikPin @ Apr 20 2017, 12:01 AM) The guy in the video is purely an Apple fanboy. The first point is false. This time Samsung do ask u if u wanna install Samsung apps during first setup. The point of the updates have been there between android and iOS since day 1. Not a good reason specific for s8 mode. It applies to all non vanilla android brands out there.

QUOTE(Andrewtst @ Apr 26 2017, 10:37 PM) Haha! I still in consideration, who knows I wait until ip8 just change. Exactly what I felt when changing to Sammy for 3 years. iOS is too steady and bored. It just works. As human, we tend to complain when everything is ok. Want more excitement. Then we changed. After with Sammy for 3 years, complain kao kao. Cannot tahan then change back. That is the cycle of life. But it's good. U get to experience best of both worlds. And it will help u appreciate more of what u already had. Go ahead and change. Don't be an isheep. Life is about adventure. It's the journey that counts. This post has been edited by 666devil: Apr 27 2017, 07:45 AM

QUOTE(Andrewtst @ Apr 27 2017, 02:38 PM) Note 7 had nothing to do with me. I didn't even preorder it I change to iPhone 7 Plus because the black color make me want it. Now I buy phone based on look only as all is very capable now. Then more reason to get s8. Its all about design and look.

QUOTE(Andrewtst @ May 5 2017, 10:02 PM) Actually I already feel like bashing Samsung. Haha! They is two thing in S8+ need to be bash.  Soon will give review.  Went molest s8 in shop a few times. 1) Excellent hardware design! Sexy. 2) Still can't get pass the non-vanilla android. So unresponsive if compared to iOS. Pls Samsung jut put in android without modification if possible. 3) The fingerprint sensor, oh my. Which designer decided to put it so small beside the camera, should be shot. 4) feels very fragile. If drop, even the back glass will crack. Just YouTube to see. Need good casing and front protector. Then all the sexiness of the design gone.

QUOTE(Andrewtst @ May 7 2017, 02:38 AM) Huh u have issue cannot update apps if screen off? No such issue here. No other ppl complain about smoothness bcoz they are so long with android, used to the non responsiveness already. U fresh from ios go android, of course feel significant difference. Same as me when molesting demo unit.

QUOTE(attw @ May 8 2017, 11:57 AM) How's the day to day battery life usage bro? I've also advertised my 7 Plus to swap for a S8+ just to try and play around with it till the next iPhone comes along but I think I'll miss my iPhone's battery life, ha ha... U can go to the thread read for urself. Not good. Android not famous for battery optimization. Furthermore the battery capacity has shrinked in s8

QUOTE(attw @ May 8 2017, 01:13 PM) As long as thy don't move the fingerprint sensor to the back. It's so dumb idea. Will cause ergonomic issue to the hand/wrist. I rather they remove the feature totally than put at the back. Be patience. Good things come to those who wait. This post has been edited by 666devil: May 8 2017, 04:59 PM

QUOTE(aiplom @ May 11 2017, 10:22 AM) The iphone design is timeless and most matured that's why is great. no doubt many geeks/nerds/simple-minded would be attracted to the samseng s8 design but after the initial nerdorgasm has been reached, all the half-baked features will haunt the user. Or they are sick of touching the finger on the camera, and having to wipe. Hey at least the face scans work ok? Last time their feature of scrolling the screen using eye movement, got my eyeball all tired ok?

QUOTE(soitsuagain @ May 11 2017, 09:43 AM) I am still getting a 7. I know this current design was since 6 and it has been boring but I am more boring with Android haha How can u be bored with android for so much flexibility to customize? Heck even some settings u set also the phone won't follow instructions.  ios same old boring screen unless u jailbreak.

QUOTE(yayiyu99 @ May 12 2017, 08:34 AM) Agree with you. IOS is so much fun. I tried few times to make my Huawei Mate 9 & S7 Edge as my primary phone but I keep coming back to my IP7 Plus as my primary phone.  I won't say fun. It just works and kinda boring bcoz minimal customization allowed unless JB. But it works for me. Now u go s8 thread see, all talking about battery drain and applications not obeying settings. Those are the things I wanna avoid. Feel like a slave for the phone to keep disabling backend services to save battery. while phone should be out slaves and just works as we have set it.

QUOTE(piglover @ May 14 2017, 08:43 AM) Yes. We pay for perfection and not making us engineer to troubleshoot the phone problem. Apple is almost perfect phone so far compare to others. Yup no perfect phones out there. Just as near to one as possible. Now give me s8 body and iOS. That is what I will call perfect.
