your clear coat case version is the earlier version or new?
the new one should be good, the old/earlier version will encounter lift up for all 4 edges.

I just install it on 23rd May at Pavilion. Guess this should be the new one right?

Don buy it, waste of money... i had try it and it makes the screen look ugly with the double sided tape visible on the side when screen is on also the black border below will block some small portion of the screen... vmad.gif

Look at where my tempered glass is now.... not on my phone screen but at my wall of fame.

Slight red tint that annoys me laugh.gif so i just bring it over and ask for assistance from them, and yes, still water resistant. They did "water testing" after replace the screen.
Yeah, slight red tint issue..not much but it really annoys me.
Yeah but the red tint not that bad compared to numerous red tint pics on internet..they did mentioned about 1 to 1 exchange but no midnight black atm, so i opted for the screen change (i just love the one im having  atm  laugh.gif )
the indian lady is cute though..she speaks mandarin better than me hahaha

after u changed the screen,
now your screen is better than those demo units in samsung shop ?
because i saw that 99% of demo units in shop also have red tint issue,
different is how much level of serious of the red tint.

my unit also red tint problem.. but not so serious,
but still make my eye pain every each time my screen is showing full white background..

now your screen is consider perfect ? 100% color accurate?

im trying to discover where red tint, blue, green & on my S8+.
is the tint smudged or where exactly? 

[attachmentid=8846349]

the red tint actually look like pink + purple,
at the very very side of the screen,
can be at left or right or top or bottom..

dont put full brightness, put 50% brightness easier to spot..
if still cant see it,
put your phone side by side to a accurate white color monitor display,
then u will spot it..
also try tilt left right abit your phone screen angle then u will see it..

not normal, let me share the variations of screens I've seen so far are:

1) perfectly fine, no red-tint on any part of the screen including the edges.

- to truly test this out, select any modes other than Adaptive Display. Example Basic Mode is the best to test. It should turn warmer, in a yellow-ish kind of warmer. NOT a reddish kind of warmer.
- Some sets that do not have red-tint in Adaptive mode, but once change to Basic mode the red-tint becomes very obvious. But IMHO this is still acceptable as most of us will be using Adaptive mode anyway.

2) perfectly fine, no red-tint whatsoever if viewed 90 degree head on, but the moment you tilt it slightly and viewing it from an angle, you will see reddish tint.

- Now dont give me the reason of because you viewing it from an angle, because I've seen demo sets in stores and my own set included that doesn't shift colour or show any hints of redness, even if tilting the phone and viewing the screen from an angle.

3) red-tint ONLY at the edges, some are throughout the edges and some are only on one side of the edge.

-(maybe this is your case) << annoying but still acceptable depending on the user.

4) red-tint on top part or bottom part of the phone, making it like a 50/50 mixture of red and white

<< the worst case of red-tint IMHO.

5) no red-tint whatsoever, but the edges are green-ish or blue-ish.

Take what you may from what I've observed and experienced. This is just my 2cents. Depending on whether your case is 1-5 and how bothered you are by it or how willing you are to accept the phone's condition.

As for me, I find 2-5 totally unacceptable. And as such I made sure I exchange my unit to one that satisfies my criteria as I stated in #1.

Call me fussy, nitpicky or OCD; but I paid 3.3k for the phone and I ain't letting Samsung screw me over in any way.. Yes I was a tough customer to satisfy when I was collecting my phone during the pre-order day, but I believe with manners and politeness, it helped me get what I wanted. Do note that I did not do anything more than just asking, and the staffs were surprisingly cooperative as well.

Using rock pure series for s8+ biggrin.gif. Price quite cheap but it certainly feels durable. Dropped mine on the floor by accident but no damage whatsoever. And it doesn't lift the original sp at all.

Thanks for the recommendation. Anyone using their guard series? Wonder if that is compatible with Samsung original SP too?
