QUOTE(mhhee @ May 5 2017, 08:05 AM) Download any terminal emulator from Play store. Then issue command "cat /proc/scsi/scsi" will do. Now every Huawei phone owner must know this command. :-P if i just use androbench and see whether my read speed is around 500mb vs around 700mb, will that do?

QUOTE(Vape On @ May 5 2017, 07:30 AM) Better dont use naked  The Galaxy S8 is gorgeous but the Infinity Display takes away some rigidity. German testers from test.de have put the Samsung flagship in their special testing drum, and it broke faster than other devices. © Stiftung Warentest The German company has built a unique drum that lets phones fall from 80 centimeters over and over. This kind of drop test challenges the overall durability of the device. According to test.de, most smartphones went through 100 falls without significant damage, just some scratches or light dents. Yet the rounded corners of the Galaxy S8 proved to be a weak point. The phone got a shattered Gorilla Glass 5 after just 50 falls. The touchscreen seemed to work fine and the back panel looks unscathed, but still that's something to consider. Test.de suggests you use a case, but that will take away the premium design feeling that is a big part of the Galaxy S8 package. Still, protecting that €900 investment might be worth it. http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s8_...-news-24872.phpwill see how after getting clear coat done, if not slippery i will continue using it naked. if still slippery(subjective, will depend on myself how "safe" I feel) like right now, especially when it gets fingerprint smudges then i'll get a case..

QUOTE(Velocity @ May 5 2017, 08:14 AM) Prevention. Even u got free glass replacement I don't think they will replace the damage case. Anyway who use without case really have bug balls yeah its a risk, but I guess im willing to take the risk.. but im usually quite (ok I mean VERY) careful about my phones, and I have OCD too. I literally take care of my gadgets better than I take care of my gf.. So yeah.. Maybe i'll regret later about this decision but I guess when that time comes only I think about it, for now just gonna be careful and enjoy the phone

QUOTE(andrekua2 @ May 5 2017, 08:21 AM) Is it slippery? Well, if I had to compare with my S6e, I think I would prefer S8. On the S6e, the chassis bulge away from the screen itself, hence only gripping the 4mm or so width of the rim. S8 on the other hand blend ever so smoothly with front and back glass. You holding the chassis plus bits of the front and back glass. It just feel better grip overall. slippery when its dirty/oily. and yea since s8 is a very narrow phone, i can hold the phone and close my hands fully, which is why i feel "safe" going naked..

QUOTE(~C.W.S~ @ May 5 2017, 09:21 AM) So how did you guys unlock the phone using home button? Pressure press or double tap? i prefer and am using quick double tap method. faster and lesser effort, no its practically no effort needed as you are just literally tapping your screen lol.
