QUOTE(TOMEI-R @ May 27 2017, 11:38 AM) You still harping on your S6E till now huh.... Huh?Just get rid of it. 32GB is just not good enough these days. I already bought one from Butterworth mobile... I dont really care about storage and camera that much. I want performance and some battery life. Those who have storage problem should learn how to organize their stuffs instead of dumping everything into their phone. |

QUOTE(TOMEI-R @ May 27 2017, 11:57 AM) Then quickly switch over, there is nothing that the S6E can win over the S8 in terms of performance. Maybe the only advantages of the S6E has would be its smaller size. I already switched over la...Files and apps are getting bigger and bigger by the day. Picture files are getting better and better because of technological advancement in camera performance. You can be living in the past. Otherwise how I know the battery life good? Same game on my S8, battery can last 3-4hours... more if on wifi S8 is smaller than S6e... width wise... This post has been edited by andrekua2: May 27 2017, 12:07 PM |

I don't use FB and I also turned off auto updating for both Galaxy App and Play Store.Max Power Saving Mode - 2% Mid Power Saving Mode - 3% No Power Saving - 6% |

QUOTE(j88j @ May 27 2017, 05:56 PM) Guys, Managed to find my previous reply on this. may i know how much balance left for storage once you reformat S8? Im thinking running dual sim card with dual whatsapp, wechat, facebook in S8 using the secure folder feature. So it's impossible to add new micro sd card. It's 54gb for my wife S8+. Should be same. |

QUOTE(powerangah @ May 27 2017, 05:45 PM) I'm having at least 15% battery drain overnight, wth la Samsung. Will try to factory reset when a new update is released Then you should leave your phone on wireless charger overnight. I think you should at least try disabling things that would autorun like auto updating apps on Play Store and Galaxy App. |

QUOTE(LordDenning @ May 27 2017, 08:49 PM) check their red slider settings under Display and also dial *#15987# and see the Reddish value set at 0, -3, -6, or -9. Yo... my S8 brings me luck... the imei last 4 digits net me RM1k gain... hahaha...Most display units had their units updated already, and also the settings adjusted to hide the red-tint for those units that had it. In Gardens during pre-order and launch day got 1 or 2 unit had red-tint, then after 1/2 weeks all of them doesnt seem to have anymore red-tint. Then when i check the settings, it appears they have adjusted it. So yeah.. |

QUOTE(Nick Zelos @ May 27 2017, 11:17 PM) Basic mode will be yellowish white. The red tint would be more apparent like on my wife S8+. I really don't see a point because most likely you won't be using basic mode if you're so picky. Even I who uses basic mode on my S6e can't stand how the basic mode look like on S8. I'm using Amoled photo. |

QUOTE(LordDenning @ May 28 2017, 10:29 PM) ask andrekua2 help you. I'm playing another game. Mobile Legend should be less demanding in graphic compared to what I'm playing. he also experienced lag, and found out the lag is not caused by the phone, but caused by your LTE line.. Unless you are playing your game with wifi... First, you need to download Game Tuner. There's no device that would run 2K gaming smoothly. I had mine set to Qhd+ in Display Settings, but for gaming, I set mine to Balanced Power Saving with Game Tuner which lowered it to 720P 60FPS. This allowed me to bump the graphic settings to medium for some eye candy. Secondly, if you're on Maxis, you might want to set your preferred LTE band if you're not getting 4G+. S8 seem to prefer Band 7 for whatever reason. Band 7 offer higher speed but wall penetration is poor. You would need to set it to default to Band 3. To do so, you need to dial *#2263#. Select the Stack for your data sim. Then Band Disable>LTE. Press reset. You will see an asterick next to all the LTE. Press everything once EXCEPT FOR LTE 3. That would tell the phone to pick Band 3 first. |

Tested a simple snapshot of my living room with S8 vs Pureview 808.
S8 brighten the shot a lot, more appealing. Colours looks great. Focusing seem good on nearer object and getting worse as distance increases. The clock on the wall 20 feet away looks awful and the wall detail is gone. One word for one of the box was captured as black instead of red. 808 shot looks dull but is exactly like what my eyes saw. Details were better on the walls, clock and captured the red words correctly. Less sharpening and noise reduction, can see it's a bit noise but more details. Maybe one need to download third party camera app to try and see how much Samsung is destroying its own camera software. |
