I just read few comment. Seems the red tint issue is real. Right?
Is it all S8/S8+ have this issue or certain phone only?
Anyway to rectify it? Or just can request to change the phone?
*
yes, red tint issue is real
not all S8 & S8+ are affected
yes, by typing *#0*#, can request to change the phone if buy / get the phone on the spot from Samsung store, not sure about normal phone shop

Of course it become longer and only the golden ticket can redeem the freebies that include starter pack. Else just free powerbank.

Samsung still not learn their lesson. Still 1 sale counter, 1 PWP counter and 1 redemption counter. Dafuq la Samsung. Pity those staff working really hard.

I've done ios to s8 transfer with smart switch, very fast given i have around 4GB photos and videos, the most time consuming process is not the photo and video part, is the apps and other settings  laugh.gif
*
I use smart switch to backup my note 4 to PC 1st > then restore from PC to S8
like loading forever laugh.gif

guys, is there a way to get one of buttons like in iphone/xiaomi to lock the screen instead of pressing on the power button? Thanks.
*
there are various, just search easyhome in play store
else, download any off screen apps, open it = lock screen
this is the one I'm using >> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?...a.screenofflock

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

lol how come trade in with higher value rclxub.gif
which outlet you went ? so at the end you only got free powerbank ?

Plaza lowyat. Not sure why they accepted it in higher value, may be I am so lengzai?  brows.gif LOL. Actually I think it depends on their final decision. Not necessary have to follow the figures on their website. Mine is no scratch, no dent, perfect condition. Perhaps that's the reason why they are wiiling to give higher value?  brows.gif

And yes. Only free powerbank.

Ground floor one ? but normally trade in only get lower value instead higher value
anyway welcome to they "grey" side icon_rolleyes.gif
