All our pre order unit are unseal and nobody make a fuss. Late owner make it a huge fuss.

On note 8 there not much defects while on s8 there was red screen defect so open box might be swap.
*
not all pre-order set
at least for the units that are sold by premium gadget, regardless pre-order or not, all or maybe almost all are sealed when receive

So basically, this was the update which already been received in other countries since last month. I wonder why SME took it so long for releasing it in here.
This line sure would show up for every single update. biggrin.gif

after previous update, i does feel that gallery is smoother now
for the rest, doesn't feel any difference

for this one, maybe wait for 1-2 days

I got my note 8 from this seller mygadget01 eventho i bought from other seller

11street system got mix up so he sent me the note 8

according to him the seller no need to open box for eWarranty

** NOTES: **
** BE CAREFUL OF RETAILER MENTIONED THEY REQUIRE TO OPEN BOX DUE TO WARRANTY ACTIVATION **
** eWARRANTY UPLOAD TO SAMSUNG MALAYSIA DO NOT REQUIRE TO OPEN THE BOX. **

something is not right here.....warranty activation? whats the problem if we as a buyer do it ourself? wont it be more safe without hustle if they didnt touch anything yet in the box?
*
last time samsung came out a policy that only the dealer can register for customer
but now, maybe due to some dealers not register on behalf of customer, so they allow customer to contact help desk to check and register

After experiencing hao 5D for rm350 with one replacement that cost rm100, I do not recommend spending so much on sp because the expensive once are as fragile as the cheap ones.

cheap one not as fragile as hao 5d that can simply spoil due to "pressure"

I hope samsung improves some of its core apps such as smart call, much can be done .

i am just hope that samsung can improve the camera app
it is known that exynos can do better than snapdragon but now it is control to the max quality of snapdragon variant
and the live focus is bad quality while low light but many other photo edit apps can provide nice quality photo when edit low light photo

Issit good to do the 800++mb updates?

i feel that the 500mb++ update make the gallery become smoother but phone animation feel like become slower (not lag) and battery seems consume more during standby
after did the 800mb++ update, overall phone animation become faster

that's my own feeling for my own note 8
others note 8 seems like perform different than mine

better change new sim card after getting new phone, only pays rm10
digi express got those machine dispencer to dispense new sim card, just slot in your ic and pay rm10, very fast
your old sim card will be deactivated and new sim will be active, try make first call.

new sim now got multi size frame, from nano to micro to normal size, so keep the frames/adapter in case u need to switch between phones
*
digi always need to pay?
i changed at celcom on last year, free
but some people mentioned that they need to pay RM5 to change at celcom
maybe for celcom, it is different for different stores

For those who kept ask Whitestone Dome any physical shop
The answer is NOPE, only Lazada currently selling in Malaysia.

I think mod need to put this Question on first page, else ppl keep asking.

Best Note 8 Screen Protector/Tempered Glass: Whitestone Dome Glass
Where to get : Lazada
Price : RM199 (As at 21/12/2017, the price is RM159.20 !!! )
Worth the price : 4.8 / 5

After using for 1 month plus, there still no hairline scratch notice on my Whitestone Glass.
Totally smooth glass till now.
*
even putting it on the first page, still people asking
because they never do search in the thread or check in the first page
just dump question saja

my friend bought his note 8 during pre-order from Maxis that come with all pre-order free gifts also

so i asked him to check his warranty period, is it 2 years
confirmed in both mySamsung app and via sms, his warranty info is showing one year only

last time, some people from here asked Samsung careline and been told by Samsung careline that the extended warranty will be updated within first month
seem like it is not true

for my case, after i requested them to update and send me the cert, my warranty info is gone from mySamsung app
checked via sms, it is still showing 1 year warranty only

I reply this issue many times.

Extend warranty only shown on certificate not on app or website. Go online and request for an e-warranty certificate
*
my first year warranty is from 18/9/2017 till 1/10/2018
but for extended warranty stated in my samsung care cert, it is from 18/9/2018 till 17/9/2019, instead of 1/10/2018 till 30/9/2019

Ok i read from cnet this:

Fast charging doesn't always work
                                            Taylor Martin/CNET
                                       
Even with this enabled, your phone won't always fast-charge, as Chris Chavez of Phandroid points out. If you are using the phone or the screen is left on while the phone is charging, the phone will charge much slower. In his testing, Chavez found that it took nearly 3 hours to fully recharge the Galaxy S8 with the screen left on -- about the same duration as "regular" charging.
*
about the screen left on, i noticed that when i run certain apps while charging phone, a message pop up to tell me that the fast charge is disable
