do u have the link? seems like all i found is more than rm50
currently using x-one stealth armor but seems like the screen got 'orange skin' effect

price at 50-60+ is reasonable for full adhesive TP
even you directly buy from taobao, after add-on the delivery fees, min will be around 40-50++ too

The company earlier announced that the beta program will be ending on Jan. 17 and that the final release could be coming out by the end of the month. They also said that they will do their best "best to distribute the official S/W version in January as soon as possible."

This could come as soon as under two weeks after the end of the beta program, the same way that the Samsung Galaxy S7 got its Android Nougat final update just 12 days after the beta program came to a close.

Even if they deliver it during CNY,  S8 is the one to get it first. Note 8 will be taking longer time. Can't blame them since note 8 OS got a lot of stuff to test.

For the phone case, this is essential to protect phone from dropping to floor. For SP, this is not necessary for me. For my practice, I always keep my coin or key at left pocket and phone always at right pocket so it will never scratch my phone.

Anyone experience screen scratching by coin, sand or key or hard item?

many note 8 owners only noticed that their note 8 got some line scratches after a while
and totally no idea that how and when scratched by what

gorilla glass 5 is easy to scratch. Even im a super careful user, spotted a few micro lines already before applying tempered glass. Need to see very detail or under strong light to spot the scratches. Am sure those without sp have scratches but not noticeable only.
*
it is just a basic logic for scratch vs crack resistance

higher scratch resistance = lower crack resistance
higher crack resistance = lower scratch resistance

so far, non of the screen material for mass production able to have both high resistance
so older gorilla glass better for scratch resistance
latest gorilla better for crack resistance

Flip case very troublesome if wanna selfie and take pic, last time i use wallet flip case , end up give up haha , maybe it doesnt suit me
Whitestone dome glass if u wnna diy , else go for hoda by sakurazzz
Bro, the case doesnt cover the button , u can just grab from shopee actually for rm15

https://shopee.com.my/ckystore/485235644

But in my opinion i found that slim case + cover button is better than this
I use on my note2 , note 5 without problem, but not everyday use, only when im going out station and mount for Waze

it is proved that magnet will impact the screen "sensor" (not sure the proper name) that is use to detect spen
with magnet attach to your phone, your phone screen can't detect your spen when you are using spen

if lucky, after remove the magnet, everything back to normal
if you are unlucky, then it will cause permanent damage

even those case come with magnet, many can impact too

some lowyat members also tested and proved it

Based on myth busters explosion at petrol station are cause by static charge release by our body not mobile phone itself.

The fuel is not flowing outside and it's not making a call. So tapping to make payment should be fine. Explosion are caused when nozzle is pump into your car then trigger the explosion
*
one of the proven theory, when started fueling, don't go back into the car
or let anyone who just came out from the car to walk near
pump, finish, put the gun back and then only leave or do whatever you want to do

Are you sure ?  shakehead.gif

How following explain ?

Classic example

Example 1

Example 2
*
Classic example, it is accumulating many calls to have enough power to trigger the fire

example 1, car engine is running, door open and close, etc so could be combination of many causes, can't just blame the cell phone

example 2, read the comments, sound right


yes, theoretically cell phone is possible to cause fire but... watch the below



best practice is still to avoid using cell phone while fueling even it maybe not the root cause for 99.9999% of cases
using means not make/answer a call

Since Note 8 is dual Sim, will it consume more power if activate two sim card instead of one Sim or power consumption will be the same regardless of activate 1 or 2 Sim on the phone?
*
theoretically it will, depend on the signal strength and more activities from the signal of 2 sims

guys normally the charging speed will degrade after certain time? let say last time u need 1 hour to fully charge from 40 - 100% , after a long time period then need more time to fully charged
*
charging speed can degrade?
i thought it will become faster when battery degrade, so it will become faster and faster

Hi guys....I just got this phone a week ago. So far my standby time is pretty bad. I don't have screenshots right now but I using EXKM app and it's like more than 1% per hour drain. (WiFi or data also same). Everything off (Bluetooth, location etc) just either using WiFi or data. Worse when on data. AOD off.

Is this normal? Does anyone have bad standby as well? Wondering if I should ask for a replacement phone ...thanks

besides of those that you mentioned, you need to check all the apps installed in your phone too
