Have been using S8 since last Thursday and notice the following;

1. Slow waze GPS lock in - S8 takes about 1-2 mins to acquire GPS location. All previous phone never have this problem
2. Slow Wifi - Copying files from NAS via AC router to SD card gets the speed about 2-3Mb/s. Nexus 6p can yield 7-8Mb/s

Anyone experience the above issues?

No gps issue on mine. Did you click agree when you use waze? Other wise it will not use high accuracy mode .Attached Image nothing special. Just google being polite to spy on you.

basically Samsung can change specs, even after it was announced, etc...

reminds me of the screen recorder and 1-2 more functions that were supposedly coming to Note2 but ended up disappearing.

How is this relevant to our discussion here?

Are we missing something?

anyone using HAO 5D tempered glass? just got my phone yesterday, haven't use it since I want to ensure enough protection before use the phone. Plan to install those TG, and was wondering the casing that suitable with the TG. Based on my checking with HAO team, they mention we can used the Samsung official casing (they didn't mention which casing), mercury case, otterbox commuter and symmetry case.

The screen crack warranty just for 1st year, not 2 years. Only can claim once within the first year warranty. Please take note of that...

I checked with service center.

1 year screen warranty if you buy the insurance separately. Rm149.

If it is the whole package rm248. It is 2 years.

1 time claim of course.Attached Image Attached Image

anyone know how to check your S8 warranty ?
i bought it pre-order but receive Samsung SMS saying 1 year warranty only..
*
Extended warranty is separate.

Even if you go service center they need to check separately.

Its not written there 2 years. Need to remind them you have extended warranty. Then only they open the open tab or something.

this is s8/ s8+ thread, right? oh, need to spell it out clearly, isit?  innocent.gif

basically, it's a "disclaimer" by Samsaung that whatever they indicated on their website is just an indication and it can change... example: UFS2.0 vs UFS 2.1, etc... even features, hardware specs may be changed.

The actual free gift cost would be much lower considering its buy in bulk blush.gif

It's volume game after all..

It actually means those seller know its hard to sell 3299 3699 phone in their shop.

So they willing to lower profit and get back their money.


Apart from people like us. Who would get a 3399 3699 android phone?
