QUOTE(ace-user @ May 29 2017, 02:41 PM) I just got my unit yesterday. Probably the software needs some time to settle in? Right now I'm left with 60% with 1 hour and 51min SOT. Off charger since this morning 7.20am. Let a few charging cycle. Battery still new.

Good casing preferable to protect against drop. Even tempered glass sumtimes cannot prevent from screen crack

Only paid RM100 at Samsung service and tooks 2hours to fix it, huhu.. If dont have the warranty, i would take maybe RM800-RM900. Hopefully it would drop and crack again..

my 3 week old S8+ admitted to service center liao. The phone suddenly is unable to connect to the telco network to make/receive calls - everything else works fine, wifi, gps, apps, no red tint issue. Initially thought was a faulty SIM card, so got it replaced by DiGi, but the same issue persists. Brought to the service center, they checked and confirm its a hardware fault. The manager offered a 1-1 device replacement under warranty.

I'm facing this bug here:https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/help/facebook-app-problem-t3598349
I have my facebook icon on the homescreen, whenever I exit the app using the back button, my homescreen wallpaper will like zoom in and zoom out for a half second. Very annoying.

QUOTE(nexona88 @ May 29 2017, 03:34 PM) good they change 1 to 1.. sometimes they won't to that  Well, initially they were reluctant for an exchange, saying it can be fixed and estimated to take around 2 weeks. I did not agree and had to talk nicely to them and negotiate. In the service center, I observed there are also a number of s8 users with various other issues. This experience opens up the perspective and possibility to me that the new phone sold by certain resellers with an attractive low price below Samsung's RRP could be refurbished units which was returned. My phone condition is flawless and can easily passed off as a new set once its repackaged.
