QUOTE(Wind82 @ May 31 2017, 08:42 AM) Use shopback and you can get 2% cash back for your HP, around RM 60++ My purchase with Qoo10 was not tracked by shopback. Launched a complain... havent heard from them since. Luckily the one I bought from Lazada during preorder was tracked. If you got PBB VS, another 6% (max RM50) for online shopping.Combo with cash back credit card, you are not loosing much. |

Did you use their app? From my experience, if using app almost 100% can track the transaction. |

QUOTE(LordDenning @ May 31 2017, 01:18 AM) seems like S8/+ has quite a few hardware issues, dont know its because of the unoptimized software between the OS and apps or memang hardware problem.. my s8+ so far so good. got non of the issues listed above, apart from the gorilla glass/fingerprint sensorThese are the prevalent issues so far (can be seen on reddit and xda of many users complaining about it): 1) S8/+ glass (front and back) very easy to pick up scratches compared to previous generations. 2) S8/+ fingerprint sensor also gets scratched easily (not glass) 3) S8/+ red-tint displays 4) S8/+ camera's OIS gets stuck quite often, have to shake the phone quite roughly in order to "unstuck" it. 5) S8/+ LED dying out of a sudden issue 6) S8/+ random sounds cuts from the speakers 7) S8/+ randomly rebooting. 8) S8/+ random vibrations after unlocking the phone via hard-pressing home button. (like it doesnt register immediately when you're pressing the home button to unlock, so the vibration comes later after u unlock the phone and touch anywhere on the screen) then there's a plethora of software bugs between the OS and certain apps. 1) edge lighting not working with certain apps 2) facebook zooming in/out the wallpaper when exit the app 3) whatsapp LED notifications not working sometimes 4) whatsapp images received when open it, its zoomed a little. |

Even though the LED failure issue is covered by warranty, it's just unacceptable how a flagship phone can fail like this. WTF, Samsung? My S3's notification LED works just fine until today. I don't want the SC to remove the phone components and compromise the water resistance or damage my clear coat.

just sold off s8+
for me the advantage of s8+ is only camera and display. for user friendly, i give 6/10. difficult for fingerprint sensor. phone are too long. not smooth overthought using latest hardware. using back mate 9 and looking forward for note 8. |

QUOTE(squall_kay @ May 30 2017, 08:10 PM) What do you expect actually. Just curious.hehe. Assuming 2hrs 45 mins on with 50% left. By the time reach 0%, 5.5hrs SOT. If 100% on wifi perhaps average or not that good, if with current state mixture with 4G like 30-40% wifi, balance on 4G consider pretty good. QUOTE(angel-girl @ May 30 2017, 08:27 PM) QUOTE(eddmecha @ May 30 2017, 07:27 PM) Actually ur phone still haven't learn your usage pattern and if u didn't touch the optimisation setting ur phone will start to put ur less active apps to sleep as default is 3 days.btw like velocity said,it depends on users,u can never achieve 6 hours sot if you don't stare at your phone for 6hours a day.unless ur work is depending on ur phone then u might get ur "expectation" result.just use and enjoy ur phone to its max instead of scare of batt drainage,the phone also charges twice as fast. QUOTE(haziqmck7 @ May 30 2017, 08:08 PM) Bos. If u just leave the phone ideal then hard to achieve 5 to 6 sot. Try play game or you tubing. For sure achieve..just relax and enjoy your phone. Haha. My point is that the standby is really poor. I'm can leave my phone for a while not touching it and it drains quite quickly, hence less battery to get better SOT. I was expecting better standby time given Samsung even have their own battery optimisation and nougat got doze feature but still the standby time is terrible.I recalibrated my battery yesterday by draining it to 0 and recharge back to full. Will see how it goes. |
