I don't know.
What I observed is that each time I screen off, the position of the clock is at a new location on the AOD.

This is a known improvement set by Samsung to prevent burn in. Even the home button moves by a few pixels.

Got my cafelle on Friday. It's the perfect case for almost naked feel. Suitable for when you want your phone to look good like in parties...or when you're going out.
My Spigen will be for work (Heavy Engineering) and cafelle or naked when I'm going out

Really? Urs must be the clear type and not matte

Yes. the clear type. The matte types reduces the viewing experience.

Dont recommend it. Despite able to fit most cases, it sure isnt worth rm89.

I can see worms, finger nails like lines under certain angles..

Same with most of the soft films. My clear coat suffers from the same problem. how is Samsung SP?

QUOTE(benny888 @ Jul 28 2017, 08:04 AM)
Mine naked since mid may . Tested the supplied Samsung SP but took it off after less than 2 weeks. My phone is in flipcase and seriously I dont like having any SP on all my phones. I had been warned zillion tines that I am taking a risk. Well I had never had any hairline scratch for past 8+years on all.my phones. Some users even go to extent to protect camera n finger print ??? Seriously just unbelievable to me!!
*
I work in heavy engineering. My hands have grease, rust and dirt most of the time. Imagine constantly touching the finger print sensor and sometimes the camera lens with it.

Hao5d is ofeering two types of sp now. One is at 190 and another one at 290. Considering for lyn members, it is only rm246, im quite sure that the later one can go down below 190 maybe. Both are full adhesive.

"full adhesive" means it will stick in the middle?

Even clearcoat has it. The matte type will be wrinkle free I guess.

What are you trying to say? The future is 'button-less' front design. Even the iPhone is heading that way.
Software will eventually be stable enough to not fail at all. In fact it is already there now. A hardware button has more chances of failing.

QUOTE(mrl @ Aug 2 2017, 01:13 PM)
I'm having love-hate relationship with that button... i like it because it feels so canggih but at the same time it keeps on waking up in my pocket and goes to emergency number dialing screen, and it's already at lowest sensitivity...

I hate Samsung for not using real pressure sensitivity like iPhone's 3D Touch...
*
The home button area is pressure sensitive. But the haptic feedback on iPhone is better and more realistic

Just replaced my clear coat to make it case-friendly but the guy installed it too much to the right. There is a visible gap on the left now. sigh...why are they so incompetent.
