Finally bought one S8+ today, from Samsung store.  rclxms.gif

No red tint issue. And yes, The edge got some blueish and greenish tint, but when I pusing the phone around, it will disappear. So ya. Confirmed it's a reflection.

Surprisingly, they accepted trade in of my 1 & 1/2 yrs old Note 5 by offering RM1000, which is higher than the price tag stated on their trade in website. I am lazy to find another buyer in such a short period. So the trade in offer is good enough for me. Inb4 if someone say it's my loss, well, frankly speaking, I don't really care. icon_idea.gif

Everything finished setup. First impression. Smooth and fast. It does have some small hiccups here and there, but it's hard to notice. I also had that kind of issue in my Note 5. So not a big deal. First time using edge screen, I feel so weird. Need some time to get used to it. LOL  biggrin.gif

Tomorrow will buy the official Samsung casing. And start my S8+ journey. thumbup.gif

Guys, does you guys s8 looks really red under basic amoled mode?

Mine looks good under adaptive but is really red when switch to other mode
*
QUOTE(benson92 @ May 5 2017, 05:42 PM)
same, basic mode is like red edition for me dy  sad.gif
*
My S8 under adaptive display no red-tint issue everything default settings on the RGB slider and 0 on *#15987#
While in basic mode, the screen gets warmer tone but not reddish.

So yeah I guess thats the advantage of having no red-tint issue in the first place, while those with red-tint on adaptive display are just masking it over, when you switch to Basic you can still see the reddish tint over it.. But then again how many will use basic mode right. I find it ugly. Adaptive mode spoiled me already

S8 is NOT a phablet. S8 is just a typical 5.1" standard phone that elongated to 18:9 screen ratio. its body size is not much different than S7.

S8+ is comparable to S7E and it can be considered as phablet. It is not huge too.
*
dont think he saying s8 or s8+ are phablets, what he meant is S8 having small form factor but giving screen sizes that could only be found on phablets.

Just let the staff from HAo and help you for the installation. Tell them that you need strong sensitivity, glue will be less but still full gluing for the stability. Damn sexy, trust me, you can fit with the SME de case gift, and you can showoff your phone by putting down the screen on the table.

snap pic post here la bro let us see how it looks like with and without case on rclxms.gif

Bro what SP is this? Cause the top part not so nice leh....
*
its clear-coat case-friendly version.

mine is clear-coat but non-case friendly version, so my top part not cut out like that, mine whole screen covered except for holes for the sensors/cameras only.

and it hides/blends very well into the screen so yeah.. not bad I guess.
