the roaming data quota follow your local data quota.  So if P70 having 15GB, you will have 15GB for roaming.  I think the video-on, music-on etc no applicable for roaming lah. 
around RM400 i think for a pair of 128GB Sandisk microSD.

how much did you get it for?

U guys think the bundled clear view cover good enough to withstand fall?
*
If it's the same as Note 7 clear view, it's really flimsy sweat.gif

QUOTE(talzer @ Apr 7 2017, 04:51 PM)
is the preorder package disappointing?
*
I think quite good for first time pre-order, provided you haven't pre-ordered the Note 7

sorry dude please name me another flagship comes close to samsung

Which flagship or iphone have iris scanner?
Which flagship or iphone have certified rating ip68
Which flagship or iphone have infinity display or close to bezeless with curve edge ?
Which flagship of android have their own AI assistant? even SIRI cant scan item and search
Apple fanboys even you give him a brick and say its iphone they will be in love while we can justify why we pay so much

So you being a fanboy does not apply to ALL.

Not sure is there any S7e trade in program
*
Last time around SenHeng had a trade in program for S7E, not sure for this time. But I think definitely have to wait for the release to confirm it. Samsung's official roadshows should also have trade in program

Does it affect screen quality or touch screen sensitivity?

Also, is there a noticeable layer around the phone?

Not sure what's the usual screen protection option for curved screen phones. Seems like clear plastic screen protectors is a no-go?
*
Clear plastic screen protectors are the only type that works actually

The 10000mAh unit given free during Note7 days was quick charging type. I wonder whether this is similar too with quick charging?

Supposedly yes, can't find anything official but I had to turn to a leak to try and confirm this.

With these taller 2:1 ratios, one handed use will be a total pain. I had problems swiping down the notification pane on the S7Edge let alone on the taller S8

Nova launcher, swipe down any location of screen, can pull down notification panel. not a hurt tho..
*
I don't feel like installing a launcher just for one feature sweat.gif worried about the performance and battery life. I do however use themes to get black coloured system panes, I ditch the wallpaper and use whatever I like rolleyes.gif

QUOTE(xDragonZ @ Apr 9 2017, 09:21 PM)
If I not mistaken, you can swipe down the notification panel using fingerprint scanner.

The fingerprint scanner also so far up hmm.gif

it's just 1 cm longer than iPhone 7 only

http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPho...4&idPhone3=7945

contrary to the verticle (length), most people esp girls would have issue with fat phones (phones with wide width) for their thumb have hard time to reach the other side lol, which in this case, S8 is a relatively slim phone

1 cm also make a difference what brows.gif

Comparably though, the overall body dimensions are smaller than S7Edge though. However the screen dimensions are bigger. Also interesting to note that it has a thicker body, but way smaller battery hmm.gif hmm.gif

btw, the screen protection got time period or any time can claim for one time once it is broken?

Isn't it just first year?

Unless you have good voucher code to share, or the telcos give a better offer, I don't see any reason not to preorder from Samsung directly. Unless of course... going to collect the phone from Samsung is inconvenient.

Or if want subsidized price. tongue.gif
