Whatever mentioned, Im not paying more than Rm100 for any screen protector or backcovers for my phones unlike last time during the Iphone 5 days. laugh.gif
I have been hanging around these threads to long enough to know better. Same things happens each time there is a new phone. While I dont want to 'kacau' others' rice bowl, putting down other brands and other sellers when we know you are promoting your own products is just unethical and not to mention irritating.

i am willing to pay more around 100-150 if it is really good and last for few years
before i go for it, i will use those that are quite ok one for few months to 1 year and check the feedback for those expensive one

get the tax invoice/receipt from senheng and then directly deal with samsung to register your basic first year and protection plus warranty, faster

senheng is also register these 2 type of warranty with samsung

for the protection plus, you will still need to chase samsung for the certificate as proof after registered, senheng will not able to provide it to you

The note 8 battery usage monitor tool is not really showing everything
example, the battery consumption of the phone radio, data and wifi
so i installed an app just to check for this consumption information only
and it show that the phone radio+data actually consume battery a lot too which we can't know from note 8 monitoring tool

i bought this app when i'm using note 5....

now like not working...keep on calculating....... do you need to activate this app again when you install in note 8?
*
i am using the free version, only pro version need to pay
i am just install and then start to use
for the app battery usage, it did ask for extra permission and i didn't give so i can't see the individual app battery usage, just lump sum

This thread is infectious. Was at Mines today to get my Note 2 power button fixed and I managed to play with the Note 8 display set. God it felt good holding one and I was quite surprised how easy it was for me to reach the fingerprint sensor. I got home and stared at the Note 8 page thinking how should I get the discount voucher. I saw Tac2000's post and decided to give it a go. Can't wait to celebrate Deepavalli with it. Gonna be my phone for the next 6 years.

Now to hunt for a proper screen protector, but looking how everyone's experience here with it on is bad I'm kinda having second thoughts now. As for casing, I'm trying to get that heavy duty protective cover which looks pretty solid.

you can give a try for the few ones that i posted at few thread above you if you can find it
then help to give review and feedback brows.gif

Nothing. Naked since day 1 (pre order)  Still scratchless day in and out diving out of my pocket.

Been testing the free casing about a week now. Makes the phone look ugly. But greatly improves the grip.
*
well, some members at here got hairline scratch on their phone after few days to 1 week usage
and yes, they don't put anything into the pocket together with the phone
so still no idea how can it get scratch

so it is not 100% safe as you say, still depend on luck no matter how careful you are

Unless you're very extra careful person, feel free to use it naked.
If you're someone that heavily used your phone in various condition, sp/tg is a must. I also very extra careful person with my previous S7e but still cant avoid hairlines. Anyway, how careful person can be is subjective.

Another option if user took screen protection plus from SME,  maybe they can use it naked, smash the screen before the protection expired and claim new screen from Samsung.
*
that will cost 100 to claim
maybe to some people, spend 100 to use the phone naked for 1 year is nice
to me, i will avoid as much as possible because you will not know that will the technician make mistake when replace the screen and spoil the ip68 or not

i am also extra careful person, my phone is still look 80-90% new after 5-6 years usage
but still can't avoid minor scratch that i don't want to see if i use it naked

Just installed the original S8+ screen protector from Samsung onto my Note 8.

Really superb fit, though one must be really careful to align it properly.

[attachmentid=9203783]

It actually feels much smoother on the surface compared to Clear Coat (which I used for my S7 edge before) which is like 5 times the price.

Also, after reading recent reviews by some forumers here on the sensitivity issues with the RM200+ Hao glass screen protector, I was reluctant to get that too.

Thanks to all the earlier forumers who shared their experience here that lead me to get one myself. Cheers! thumbup.gif

last time i have bad experience on note 7 samsung ori sp
after apply, the screen color look a bit yellow, marks are obvious, etc

so this time never think about it

This is the damage of the minor drop on my floor while sitting down

it is not because it is fragile, i means the whole screen
it is common knowledge that curve screen is easily damage if the impact is direct onto the curve area, especially at the corner

can only say that you are unlucky, direct hit at that area

Just placed an order for note 8 through qoo10 using the 16% cart coupon.
total damage rm3670 - rm450 - rm73.40 (cash back) = RM3,146.60  rclxms.gif
Can't wait to receive it next monday/tuesday. 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
