Ordered casing: Cafele, Nilkin

Now exclusively using wireless charging (itian) from s7e days.

Love the iris scanner, trying very hard not to do the setup similar to s7e, but difficult

Last time i bought fake sdcard from ebay. got te refund through paypal. i use the log from fakeflash test:

The one received is very slow and cannot even complete the test.

Have been using clearcoat from day 2 of my s8. So far so good, the feel is different then naked glass but touch sensitivity and wireless chargingb is not affected. Today I got my 1st case for the s8, which is Nilkin nature TPU. Look nice, but from my past experience TPU case last at most one month before turning yellow.

But then when its new I always buy TPU case.

Anyway have been using clearcoat for my s7e previously and the past year i change the coat about once every 2 months or more. I even change the clearcoat when its not compatible with cases that i buy or try or at the shop. So yes for the price its worth it considering that before that I already spent 200++ trying various brands of SP and GP.

However, if you do not live in KL then cannot help lah.

Not on mine, after the 600MB++ updates which get the phone warm, I do not feelthe phone overheat, even 1hr ++ on waze. I not a gamer so cannot comment on that part

Just got my Cafele casing today. Much thinner then Nilkin Nature TPU case clear which has turn yellowish (3 weeks). Cafele is black, so no more clear case for me.

I do not recommend nillkin nature, not only it turn yellowish but is also leaves marks on my clearcoat. Need to go and change now.

I also receive elcheapo m7 smartwatch, and work wonderfully well with s8. just that it cannot use samsung health to record data.

got my cafelle on Thursday, yes its so thin. Look much better then my Nillkin Nature (which already turn yellowish). However, on Cafelle seem to be very slippery.

I also ordered Nillkin Frosted Shield and BearMotion case. Still waiting for both.

Congratulations! Looking for coral blue last time but no stock. Happy with my midnight black.

Coming from s7E, the setup of my s8 now, has slowly morph my s8 to s7e again.. all the settings, widgets etc...

Depending on your location and your inclination to experiment. I recommend ClearCoat SP, with lifetime warranty. Only two outlet Sunway and Pavilion. For reviews you can do a search in the thread

gave up on samsung keyboard, use swiftkey

last time i use gboard is ugly. swiftkey you have many different themes can change

the prediction wise after some time is similar to swiftkey,

Hehehee.. too long not use gboard may be will try again...

Any method of displaying specific folders and not displaying Instagram, Facebook pics?

Just a quick review of my el-cheapo smartwatch@band that I pair with s8.
http://www.lazada.com.my/m7-blood-pressure...0.0.kZCieI&ff=1

a) this watch look like a watch but really is a smartband which focuses more on getting activity data
b) I bought this as the watch claim it can also read blood preassure, and as someone with hbp. The reading for hbp is good and accurate (similar to my omron)
c) Other measurement, walking, heartbeat, sleep etc. also good.
d) Able to receive notification on calls when connected via bluetooth
e) Charging one every 9-10 days
f) Cannot change watchface or install any application (not smartwatch)
g) Cannot use Samsung Health to get the data, so need to install another app.
h) the watch is smaller then I my old Samsung Edifice and much2 lighter
i) outdoor very difficult to read


Overall, if i can connect the watch to Samsung Health I am more then satisfied, but as of now... not so

As mentioned in the review the reading is similar to moron. As for Bluetooth camera I don't think it has this function. If do still cannot find.

Got bearmotion case due to good review nearly everywhere. It's a little thicker then cafele case, and feel more rigid. The feel is similar to oneplus one thus giving S8 more grip. Also the case fit better then cafele.

Sadly the packaging feels so cheap.
