I'm a bit particular when comes to battery. This gives me a feeling that this battery won't last 6 months.
Try hao sp, if you don't mind paying the price

Just use the phone happily, don't check too much on battery. smile.gif

It makes no difference in nougat anymore since app developers by now have defined in app manifest whether they want to use software or gpu to render. If this was proven better than not switched on, then all manufacturer and rom builders have shipped OS with this switched to On.

Those who used this switch from KitKat to marshmallow will able to tell that most feedback given are placebo or due to bad app design which needs phone to force it to rely on GPU.

It is not placebo to me, I immediate notice the animation smoothness change.

Just discovered today that the rear camera doesn't focus at all except for near objects. Images turned out blurry & out of focus. It was ok when I first got the S8 on May 4. Front camera however is working fine. Tried restart with no effect.. ☹☹

Did you drop the phone? or hit something hard.

is Samsung Video Library samsung's video player?

and Samsung Music is the music player right?

If you mean below two apps, you need to manually download at Samsung Galaxy Apps.

Music - well done beautiful music player.
Video - a video player that support HDR playback in a single app to view all.
