Unfortunately in Miri, there's close to zero third party casing available except for those really low quality ones. If only Lazada allows us to do reviews on those incomplete orders & sellers. I am not going back to KL until maybe in January so it's definitely frustrating when such things happen.  vmad.gif

Bro, cable also related. Adapter is source, if the cable insufficient to carry the source output, the link is incomplate.

If u had used Huawei Mate 9, 10 series with their exclusive 5A super charge technology then u know the pain.
Both Charger and cable need support 5A, otherwise wont have super charge advantages.

Update on my phone case..

sent it to Sunway pyramid as it was the nearest service centre to me.. thanks to everyone suggesting other service centre though..

they checked the phone, tried to hard reset and whatever reset they can and still the phone won’t turn on so they conclude the motherboard rosak already..

so they had to change the motherboard and I got my phone back 1 and half hours later. got it back like a new phone with nothing inside.. thank god samsung cloud auto backup my phone.. so now restoring the backup.

The only bad thing about this phone is it's ugly tall phone design and terrible fingerprint placement.
*
I think the fingerprint actually is good after few time usage.
At first i also kinda like "why on earth they wanna place beside the camera??"

But now getting used to it and find that actually is good position

yes i agreed. But then, iOS has their own strength, some apps just never make it to android, or it just not very optimized, dunno the developer reluctant to support android or what.. like facebook, ios no much prob, but android not very optimized.
*
So now my hands are busy cause i'm using Note 8 and IphoneSE, hahaha..

Hybrid user flex.gif

But personally i think IphoneX is just a crossing bridge or half baked device to test their marketing strategy

First: $$$
Second: The charger comes inside not support fast charge <--- duh ..

Haha.. after using Note 8, i change my working trousers cause before one hardly fit into it
The pocket too tight to fit it in that's the downside, i scare later sit down will bend it =X

Got my phone since 18 november, finally only this morning start to insert sim card and use out side my house.
Decided to sell and switch back to huawei.
Reason, the keypad is so tiny, i text a lot., very inconvenience for me.
And not used to samsung environment, mate series is better in my opinion.
Only officially use for 3 hours. Damn.

Bro, you can resize the keypad la ..

Go dig a bit in setting there > Keyboard and layout

Different gorilla, Note 8 is more toward shatter resistance than scratch resistance.

That's why you see drop from 1000 ft also no dmg on front screen

i think they are looking at practicality, because if screen scratched, phone still can work, just heartache for maybe 1 day? then u will dont give a fuk already. But if ur phone dropped from ur pocket and pecah(which most of the phone does), then ur phone cannot work already, ur screen is scratchless also no use if it easily shattered.

read this for self-explanatory article.

Yea, if scratch, still usable and pay $$ for screen protector

If pecah, cannot use and u pay $$$ to repair and next you also need $$$ for screen protector

F*ck me.

Any other alternative? wacko.gif

If you have spent RM100+ already ... will you mind to top up a bit for a perfect solution ?
***I also spent RM100 somewhere before getting Whitestone Dome

I dun really see any alternative, yet

Some forumer intro HAO or X-one, which i dunno those cause some require to go to the shop for installation.
