Anyone tried x.one screen protector? May I know what's your thoughts on it?
Or any of you is currently rocking the S8 naked?

USING.
PRO- no comnpotability issues
Con- quite hard to apply, decrease screen quality(grainy), oleophobic coating wears off very2 fast

Honestly I've used Sandisk before - and it got corrupted beyond repair and since I no longer have the original receipt I didn't claim for warranty - been using Samsung Evo plus and no problem so far for months already ...if you google seems like Sandisk seems to have a common corruption problem...not sure why

Extremely unhappy with the treatment to the pre-order customers by Samsung ma...

Least competitive free gift if compare to the cash rebate (discount) received by those who bought the handset recently.

So.....claim as much as I can from samsung lo  icon_rolleyes.gif

pre order get extra 1 year warranty with screencare+ powerbank+wireless charger+ sp+clear case. Already a very good deal i think?

I got the Tax Invoice today from Lazada. But they still didnt reply me yet regarding whether i will get the full RM80+ in SV or just RM4+ that i paid the seller. If it's the later, waste my time to do all the hassle.

No offence and jst my two cents.

One can get the cheapest S8 Plus at around 2800++ which is 900 cheaper than the pre-order set.

Meanwhile, he able to get another 400 raya voucher with a total of 1300 rebate on the top of retail recommended price.

3699 - 900 = 2800

2800 - 400 = 2400

In my personal point of view,

1300 cash/voucher rebate is much better than screencare+ powerbank+wireless charger+ sp+clear case.

Preoreder customer suppose to get some privilege or discount but the truth is the other way round.

screencare (not a must to me)
+ powerbank (not useful as I have a few powerbank alr)
+ wireless charger ( i seldom use the wireless charger, still prefer to charge the phone with wired, use less than 5 times)
+ sp  +clear case  (not a must to me as I bought the case from other company)
*
Haha. true that. Anyway i bought mine 1 week old preorder set with all the freebies at 2.8 from a forummer. Not that much lost

Hey guys, after a sick night of research on SPs on LYN, Amazon and Taobao
I found these.
Thin Film - Thin, Clear, easily-scratchable, Little to no protection
Tempered glass - Smooth, smash protection, scratch-resistant, easily fell off (due to adhesive only at the edges)
"Wet" Film - Rubbery, draggy surface, minimum protection, "self-healing" scratch resistant, rainbowy screen.

I did not mention about

What I want is just clear (no rainbow, no matte), smooth surface (gaming) and scratch resistant. Screen protection and fingerprint is nothing of my concern but there doesn't seem to be some middle ground here. I'm leaning towards the "wet" films for scratch resistant but some said it's draggy which it's bad for gaming.

Any thoughts here? what's your recommendations? (My S8 Plus is coming today!  rclxm9.gif )

Hao tempered glass. Fits all your requrements

i just applied the hao 5d tg this evening. The glass touch feel is top notch compare to clear cloat and x-one sp. For me, the worst is x-one for its lousy quality.

guys, exynos S8 does not support quick charge right?
Thinking of getting the Anker Powerdrive instead of Samsung's dual port car charger.
Or any other recommendations?
