The main point is not only about the registration, but more about the seller insisting that leaving it unregistered is impossible, i.e. registeration 100% must be done before shipping. So I just wonder the reason. smile.gif

instruction from samsung? no idea
because samsung always tell that its dealer will register the e-warranty on behalf of the customer because they can access to the system

Wow you seems knows a lot. Well your words kinda makes me feel better for my purchase, I was so regret of my decision after realized this issue
*
i am all the while using samsung smart phone only
when they started e-warranty, i found that no way for us to register it by ourselves and check the information directly
so read thru their q&a in samsung website lor
and also google for more answers

at beginning, still many dealers not register the warranty for buyer
so must be many buyers booming the samsung mailbox to ask about the warranty

this is what i did:-

1.) wait my current contract ended. (iphone)

2.) after current contract ended, switch to digi 78 contract for note 8. Got fren work inside helped me. later on tell why i as fren help.

3.) while digi porting in your line, you'll receive sms from maxis whether you confirm anot. answer confirm.

4.) after awhile maxis will call to ask why & you complain & tell them you dun need to use lots of data (RM128 package) + note 8 price @ rm3000+ only need sign up for digi RM78.

5.) they guarantee will counter offer. (mine RM2600+ before GST, RM2800 after GST + no need sign OnePlan 128. ONly use current OnePlan 98 + RM68 fees for 1st 3 months)

6.) Ask fren to cancel the digi application & recall back the maxis person in charge to get the offer.

~ seems fussy? all done in around 20hours (port in to digi @ 8pm, maxis called the next day 1:30pm)

~ can be done even with normal official digi outlet.
*
why do you still need to ask your digi friend to cancel?
if you accept maxis's offer for current phone number, means maxis will stop the number to transfer to digi what
if they can't stop it, then no point to call to offer you

The curved screen makes screen replacement hugely expensive. A S7 Edge screen is 6 times more expensive than a iPhone 6 Plus.  vmad.gif
*
the replacement cost is not due to curve design but due to the OLED
now the X also sky high cost to replace the screen

Same..  but since they still selling like hot cake
Samsung flagship ain't gonna abandon curve screen
Can't blame them tho. Sales figure never lie
Since still selling like hot cake, why change it.

But wonder why they don't aim customer like us.
Earn from both side much better.. weird
*
samsung is trying to push the full screen display to max but still want to maintain the slim body that is nice to hold
so curve screen is the solution

Err.. have u see mi mix 2? LG G6 and V30?
Does not have curvy display still nice to see nice to hold

I don't understand what curve screen have to do wit making device slimmer..
*
in fact this is one of the reason for this design and many people also appreciate it, even in many online reviews

people like me, might not like mix 2 and LG because although their screen size not much smaller than note 8 but it is slightly wider than note 8 and flat, so my small hand won't feel so comfortable to hold it and use with single hand

btw, i am not the fans of curve screen as well even though it look nice
that's why i don't like Galaxy S, Note look better because smaller curve

Yup.. gotta agree lots of ppl like the curve screen, if not it won't be selling so well.. and personally it does looks gorgeous.. but imo not nice to hold..

Tbh, note 8 too tall/long for my hand.. hard to reach top and bottom.. most of the phone I have no problem one hand operate, even with the note 3 5.75 inch display..

Oh well, until next time mr note..
*
it is too tall for me too
but with a smaller phone like s3, i am also use it with 2 hands
just when need to hold it with one hand just to watch videos, read novel, etc.. note 8 is best to hold with one hand and note 8 is hardly to miss touch edge

I just discovered something which could explain a thing about the sensitivity of the TG SP you are using.

Got a cheap case today, for the heck of it cos it looked nice. After putting it on, realised that the sides go all the way to the SP, just touching but not lifting the latter. Using other cases, there is a gap of about 1 mm. Then as I was texting I noticed on certain areas, my taps don't register as cleanly meaning the sensitivity of the SP is degraded.

So, I changed to another case which does not touch the edges/sides of the TG SP and what do you know? I do not experience the problem anymore. Do not know whether it's the case(pun intended) of the casing touching the SP, albeit just slightly but lifting it just enough but not visible to the naked eyes, to cause the issue. Anyway, this is my experience and I am sharing for you guys to take note and perhaps save those expensive SPs by changing the case before discarding the former.
*
some cases are due to the case push up the SP
some are actually the TP problem
i am using cheap TP now too

I did ask where he got it. Sucker dun wan tell. He made a group buy. few of us friends using note 8. But see his face, most probably from hong kong. he goes there every month. I'll post the result ASAP. see if you guys interested. No extra charge from me. Cos my fren going to hong kong in 1.5 week time (assume he really got it from hong kong). Maybe can ask him get some for u guys.
I actually asked him to get me another 2 sets. This 1 scratched exchange another piece.

full cover is conflict with my case

Korean have a variation of models. 64gb with 6gb ram and 256gb with 6gb ram. There is also some with 8gb ram but never heard it coming over here. LG U+ is the carrier in korea, also there is unlocked version and most seller imported from that source. Yes Samsung Pay can't be used here, better get MY set if you want it.

3.3k for 64gb, 3.5k for 256gb of storage for the Note 8
*
3.3k for 64gb korea AP set
to me personally, not worth it

i guess this seller don't have ready stock
they just sell and then only order
if samsung suddenly short of stock to supply all or late delivery, then you guys gonna need to wait for longer time which is not good

I believe when u change screen or they open ur phone, it is no longer ip68 certified because already tempered

they will re-apply the ip68
but you are not 100% sure that is the seal as good as from factory or not

They will go thru recertification again? I dont think so my fren. U need ppl to recertify ur phone is ip68 rated. Just like ex rated equipment, once tampered need recertify.

QUOTE(Xaser_3 @ Nov 16 2017, 11:47 PM)
Yes, what ben3003 said is true. I doubt any of the service centre's here are able to do the IP68 certification in house.
*
they don't do certification, they are just re-apply back whatever seal such rubber, glue, etc as per training
that's why i said that, you can't confirm is it 100% no problem
last time, during note 7 time, did have some owners changed the screen and then service center on the spot put it in the water for the owner to check during collection
not sure can they still do the same check or not now

If still not statisfy u can return it n wait for full refund with your statement.
I read the main post some seal n some unseal stickers at posted by buyers.
I wonder register warranty can refer to the box imei sticker instead open seal to check the phone.
Sometimes global market also need to trained well of skill workers.
Cheers bro.
*
samsung retail shop also unseal it to take IMEI from the body of the phone instead of refer to the box
maybe this is how samsung trained them
i guess it is to prevent the mistake of phone IMEI and the box is different
plus there are IMEI stickers in the box for registration purpose, if you do it at samsung retail shop, they will take it to submit for record
