Guys, what kind of screen mode that you guys are using?

Adaptive? or AMOLED Cinema?

In fact, is there any difference or pro for using other screen mode?

Also, should I update my Note 8 patch? Is it stable or buggy? Just wondering.

Is there a good and quality clear view casing for note 8?

I got the default clear casing when I bought the Note 8 but it was clear that the quality wasn't great to begin with.

But seriously what is the general and popular casing that people are using for the Note 8?

Weird question here.

Is the Always display mode "clock" position will move randomly every time you screenlocked your phone?

Asking this for future reference.

Let's assuming that my Note 8 battery died on me... and in this situation what and how am I supposed to fix or change my Note 8 battery? Send to Samsung store and phone-less for few days?

The service time is fast, provided they have parts in stock. Usually within 3 hours.

So I was right that only Samsung Store can fix it?

As for the screen protector how's reliable was sticker type protector actually? And why was the sticker protector that I am installing for my Note 8 seems open up (slightly) at each corner of my Note 8.

Am I not using the designated note 8 screen protector or it was the back casing's fault?

Sticker sp aka silicon film, good enough to prevent scratches on screen, but not crack when u drop the phone. Sp lifting issue is not casing issue, it is bcos of the curve edges. Only soft liquid pet film like clear coat can stick well on the edges. Another is expensive TG that is fully adhesive.
*
So does this means cheap silicon film will always lifting up due to the Note 8 design huh and to solve this I need to buy an expensive screen protector huh? Ummmm... that sucks.

Also, if the silicon screen is no good, then the tempered glass(or whatever it was) that designed for Note 8 is the only choice here?

Thanks again though for the valuable information.

if you always swap between cases, even full adhesive tg like the whitestone also will lift at corner and wouldnt stick again, many report from xda, reddit, youtube.

i also share before 1 cheap PET film works great too.
*
Hmmmm...I guess this is the flaw of the curved screen huh?

At last I know that whitestone is a legit and expensive screen protector now. May considering getting one when my financial is stabilized. Had been spending so much money in this month.

As for the screen protection plan where can I get it? Samsung store too?

ya, i create a few, mostly is going office which set my brightness/ mute volume, or morning to set volume and play youtube, or goodnite to clear recent apps and show my alarms.

maybe some of us can share more how they interact with Bixby, there is update for it too yesterday.
*
Yeah. I am Bixby for activate the blue light and reduce the brightness when I go to sleep. I also use it to the disable WiFi and then activate usb tethering instead of manually go to setting to find the USB tethering option.

Bixby was very convenient tool.

Only American gets Snapdragon.. Exynos is actually safer anyway. No slow down issues reported.
Snapdragon altho better in benchmarking has slow down issues after a few months.

Good to hear that. I hope that Exynos doesn't have the 0% battery issue.
