oh i dont take videos in 4k lah laugh.gif

even my note 5 only internal storage, 32gb.. still have about 7gb remaining laugh.gif

mostly photos for me

so i think if i buy 64gb, gonna be too much, plan to get sdcard for emergency storage only.. but 16gb abit low laugh.gif

so may opt for 32gb
what green line?
*
Ohh. haha. I recorded in 4K for 10mins, as note 8 only allow max 10mins, so i recorded in 4K, only 4 videos. HAHAHA. 20GB gone LOL. A very thin line not very noticeable. only in different colours you can see. Mine I notice sometimes when browsing facebook. very thin green line.

QUOTE(Max2006 @ Jan 14 2018, 11:04 AM)
How much is that?
Normal. All Samsung edge screen phones tend to have that "green" line on the screen side. Some said, it's blue, or cyan, or reddish...etc, which is quite subjective to each own perception. Anyway, it's a characteristic. It's hard to notice unless you concentrate on the screen side. Nothing to worry about.

Or are you talking about this (pic attached below)? If that's the case, then it means the screen is kaput.

Not that obvious green, very light green. Its not affecting me or anything, I just noticed it. hahaha. But I think it should be ok? Or should I go samsung to get it checked? o.o

I only set my video to 1920 x 1080. Not so much space to store QHD
*
oh. I dont record that often though. Haha. So thats why i leave it at 4K lol

QUOTE(Max2006 @ Jan 14 2018, 04:24 PM)
Perhaps you can take a photo and show to us here? But based on your description, ya. Most likely it's that normal thin green line which I mentioned above. If you still doubt about it, you can just go to Samsung shops and check their demo units. I am sure you will find the same thing on their display unit.

Okay. I'll try and take a picture and see. lol

I think this is normal for note 8, mine also got this 'shadow' line at both side..lol.

I remember i saw someone posted a video in the thread, the Youtuber said this is not the defect.

I have the shadow too. Not a defect.

Ok. Confirmed normal. No need to worry.

Speaking of this, that's one of the reasons why some people dislike samsung edge screen. laugh.gif

Oh lol. I didnt know that.. I actually did not notice it at all. HAHAHA. Oh well, I dont mind it too. Since i rarely look that way. hahaha.. At least I know its not a defect. hahah. Dont like the hassle of changing phones have to set up everything again hahaha

thanks!

tmr i will explore how to disable bixby and map it using bxactions or something (saw on xda)

not sure if it'll work but some reported it works when you disable bixby and it rolls back the update
64gb i think enough for me nod.gif

but you store your photos on the sd card or internal?

so far i put it on internal lol
thanks laugh.gif

tmr will be a bit busy on xda laugh.gif
*
