QUOTE(sam_x @ Oct 6 2017, 07:32 AM) Had a minor drop and my screen cracked so easily... I've been using a Note since the first version and never this happened.... Googled this and it is becoming an issue. The screen is very fragile even with casing or screen protector... Beware of any kind or drops, even on carpets.... This is the damage of the minor drop on my floor while sitting down This post has been edited by sam_x: Oct 6 2017, 09:01 AM Attached thumbnail(s)

QUOTE(andrewtho @ Oct 5 2017, 10:21 PM) Bought a screen protector called And0 or something at Digital Mall earlier - around RM120 after discount. Very responsive and feels abit like Clear Coat (previously used their service for my iPhone and Apple Watch). It's an almost full body wrap (covering the sides and buttons too) - plastic casing will have issues with this SP. So far so good, works well with S-Pen too. can share some pictures here bro? |

Especially if the phone impacts on the edges like andrewtho's phone. This post has been edited by TOMEI-R: Oct 6 2017, 10:59 AM |

I'm a bit skeptical on hard case. It makes me feel like they won't absorb the impact. When drop, the hit and impact is 100% transfer to the phone. For soft case like tpu and rubber types, they have elasticity which make me feel like they can absorb the impact and reduce the impact that transfer to the phone.

This will be my 1st android phone ever i am still waiting for qoo10 to confirm with cashback for my cash back since 7 sept qoo10 is really taking too long to confirm it can just confirm and then start the 60-90 days countdown instead of put it as pending which don't know what will happen in future |
