I gave them time pressure and requested them to do it within 3 hours.

(I dun want to give them enough time and space for investigation over my case)

It was the very first day Samsung issued the 400 vouchers which is tied to the imei.

I bet all parties (the system technician / voucher operators / customer service) are not ready and are not well communicated during that time and I keep claiming that the 400 voucher was not shown in my mysamsung app.

I gave them my imei number and ask them to settle it within 3 hours.

After 1 hour, I found a voucher was pushed into mysamung app.

By the way, I dont think this tactic works anymore as the system technician / voucher operators / customer service aware of this scam.

It's not about reaching for it. It's the placement lah. Almost every review is complaining about this. IMO, it's the only drawback of this phone.

Especially if you have casing on that's limiting the space for the finger to place on the sensor. You will regularly touch the camera and smudge it.

After using this phone for more than 1 month, I've already gotten used to the FP location. Never once have I mistakenly put my finger on the camera lens. Just need to get used to it, all about muscle memory haha

Hao glass protector is honestly the best I've used, yes it's expensive but it really makes me feel like I'm not using any glass protector. Clarity is great and touch responsive is superb too. Only small issue is that the after the adhesive dries up the residue will still be at the side of the glass and you have to keep wiping it off.

For the price I still think it's worth it, cuz if you keep buying those cheap tempered glass with only adhesive at the sides you'll eventually throw it out in a few days trust me. I threw my Nillkin tempered glass 2 hours after applying it, those side adhesive tempered glass feels like shit. Better just spend more and invest for a better glass protector. Lowyat member get 15% discount too.

Wouldn't it be better to pay for screen protection from samsung? Almost same price. No need TGSP and feels good at hand. laugh.gif
But to each his own i guess..

Mine is preorder unit so I already have the 1 year screen protection haha. I'm not worry about drops or screen crack, I'm just worried about scratches. I've tried all kinds of screen protectors, glass one feels best. Those with adhesive only at the side are the worst, you can feel the gap between the middle part and the screen, it feels terrible. That's why I went for Hao.

Just applied a small film protector on the fingerprint sensor on my S8+. Looks and feels like nothing is there and does not seem to affect functionality. Provides me with ample peace of mind smile.gif

Im using it. Noticed that sometimes it takes a while to initiate the smart lock when just reach ur set location. I guess it took some time to lock in ur location.
After that it works like a charm. And also seems to deactivate if phone not active for long hours.

Normally I leave my phone charged in the morning. So after a whole night of charging when I use the phone in the morning smart unlock won't work anymore sad.gif
