I thought the above issue is serious enough for us to bring it over from previous thread. Any new updates, bro woeikang?

Just my opinions on this, you're free to disagree, but here goes:

Honestly I dislike that the coating is peeling we didnt pay almost RM 4k for this, but I am not altogether surprised. If you paint any glossy paint on metal, or anything, it is bound to happen, it is just a character of glossy paint.

I would hate for it peel bigger, but I am fine with it. If it ia really thay bad for you, I suggest you document it, take pictures, the more it gets bigger, the more you have a case to say it is a defect. If not, just live with it

It is all about costs. I'm sure they can make a strong durable and scratchless glass, but it'll cost so expensive that phone manufacturers wouldnt want to buy it. This is especially true for consumer products.

hey!! just bought a note8 yesterday, i got a question regarding the screen color correction.

-my phone screen already install a hoda 9h screen protector.

not sure why my phone got a yellowish tint to it. i can tell because i put side by side with my xiaomi note phone. i can tell is abit yellowish compare to my xiaomi.

when i on the blue filter. the whole screen get super yellowish orange.
@.@
another thing when i go advance and tweak between cold and warm.
-slide to warm, the color become colder
-slide to cold, the color become warmer

@.@ what is happening. does anyone here encounter the same problem? or is this a problem?

thank you sifu!
*
As far as comparing screens, you should compare with another Note 8. Your Xiaomi phone can be calibrated more blueish so thats why you see the Note 8 as mroe yellow when maybe it is normal

Mgt also be your screen protector

But never heard of the colour slider peoblem. Sounds weird

my staff complain why such an expensive phone also need to do such primitive actions.
can't samseng/google improve the software? it's already version 8.

some more always battery drop at least 5% overnight.

Lol you are talking about 2 different things.

1) As I said, it is an FB app problem. Even for IOS. No matter what machine you are using, no matter what the OS is, if an app or any software is not optimised properly, it will disrupt your machine, even if your smartphone has GTX 1080 TI in it lol. You want to be angry? Go rate the official FB app 1 star on the Google Play Store.

2) Secondly, battery dropping 5% overnight is soooooooooooooooooooooo subjective. It could be affected by so many things. There are people in previous posts, that says their Note 8 standby barely drop 1%. Some say 20%. What does this mean? It means it is SUBJECTIVE to your use. You could have bad phone network in your area, you could have background apps running, so many factors, that eventually leads to you.

Saying you pay so much money for "crap" when the things you mention is not a Note 8 problem is..difficult to understand, to say the least.

all the 3D tempered glass need perfect installation even the whitestone
whitestone come with installation to help to align perfectly

TP is not flexible, alignment a bit out means gap between it and screen then issues happen
that's why i am always tell others that my cheapo TP need very good alignment to avoid all the common issues

but for sure that there are TPs in the market that even 100% perfect alignment still problematic

i knew people from another forum who bought the full adhesive TP to try and it is working fine for him

if really want a nearly perfect TP, then can go for whitestone and hao
crack one, enough for me to buy few pieces of the cheap TP
i will not go for those expensive solution for now, because we may see improve version of TP in future
*
Where did you buy chep TP? Sounds like worth a try for now 😁

actually consumer can't directly buy from his shop, that's why i didn't share the shop info
no idea that which phone accessories shops take stock from his shop

i install it myself, put the case on to help for alignment, at least i can see the space between 2 sides to know that it is align well or not

hmmm, if more people are interested to get it then i can help to get it from my cousin at once and then meet up at one place to distribute and gathering..
i am actually lazy to travel and distribute multiple times, plus hard to schedule time with people too because i am not a accessory seller like sakuraz so can't station at one place whole day to wait for everyone

i will try to borrow a phone with nice camera to take photo on tomorrow if i remember

Have you post the photo? 😁

I feel like I've given up on tempered glasses. The only good on is the Whitestone Dome, but you crack that once you say bye bye to RM 200.

The others it is either not touch sensitive, or too thin that makes it easily cracked, etc. The list goes on. It sucks

Test in dark and bright room... not really a reflection as you can see that the streak of fine white line of light happen after the border...both phone i test on flat surface had different light leak location that how i concluded it is light leaking between the border of the phone
*
It is definitely not light leak. I had the same thought a few months back and was so bothered by it. But it is definitely not light leak and is simply the light of the screen reflecting due to the curve.

I've tested so many times. What convinced me that it is not light leak is because the light pattern follows what is on the screen. Light leak wouldnt be that accurate unless you actually have a whole gap in your phone that allows you to see part of the display under the glass.

No one reported such issue in s8/s8+ thread, including myself, I used 2 different s8+ before no such issue . Those are curve glass too.

So many people reported the same. In fact a simple google search would reveal it. We are all Note 8 users, why would we protect samsung? If samsung gave defective products of course we would want it fixed

Afternoon.

Finally my dome glass arrived just now. Order 22/12/17..ETA 10/01/18, that fast.
Before arrived tempting to install, when arrived scared to install..LOL

Quick question - after install, straight used cases ? Or wait 2-3 hour ? Or better wait 24 hour

TQ

[EDIT - 4.37PM]

Already broken, fly away RM139  bangwall.gif  moneyflies.gif
The mistake is forget to put in 2nd case before pull out glue.
Still put in 2nd case & the result glass over shoot a.k.a terlajak ke bawah.
Try to pull out glass & crack..

demm...
*
I am not in anyway trying to put salt on your wounds, but this is exactly why I dont buy TP above RM 100, because it might be great but once cracked it is still a cracked TP 😥

I'd rather buy cheap ones ao that if it breaks it is easily replaceable.

But that is my personal preference only
