QUOTE(abcxyz @ Nov 8 2017, 07:27 AM) As long as you manage to shave the combined thickness below 1.4mm it will fit. I went as far as 1.2mm that is when the sim card failed. Also chamfer the sd card's leading and trailing edge on the printed side to minimize it catching anything when going in and out. |

Did you use a caliper? |

S8 and above the infinity display the side are really no bezel, only top and bottom which is ok since it is not a fuking notch and u wont notice the top and bottom. Apple really bring "Top Notch" design into reality.the other so-called curve screen / edge less phone actually not achieve the same as samsung they are just having full glass but not full display screen edge to edge but then, for samsung user, because we all go and buy those thick casing bla bla, in the end, the infinity display become pointless.

QUOTE(MasBoleh! @ Oct 31 2017, 04:17 PM) If you see the comparison video below, you will knew that iPhone 8 plus's video are warmer in colour. So i am curious to know, is it possible with Samsung to achieve the same with some apps? Or something? I knew this can be corrected with Software. So really no one can answer eh? Ok.. got it. |

Guys, I have an issue here.
The side of the tempered glass is so nonresistance to dust due to its curve glass..... It cause the dirt to go inside the tempered glass easily. How did you guys fix this issue? Will getting cover case with non-tempered glass ( normal screen protector ) help? Is there really any tempered glass that can cover the entire glass.... |

Just got mine over the weekend, Orchid Grey from Umobile. Extended/upgraded my existing plan to the Monthly RM90 plan and didn't have to pay any upfront payment. Phone price was RM2959 and they even allowed 0% 24 months installment.
Purchased from U Mobile Times Square. So far, not very impressed with battery life.. |
