I didn’t face lags but would face abnormal battery drain even in max power saving mode sometimes. But like you said, a restart magically solved the issue.

might be some bug in the OS but curious why samsung didnt release an update to fix those issues
but i didnt face any battery abnormal issue
as i know there are a security patch just released but not sure will fix this issue or not

IINM, iPhone X gets higher score due to their new A11 Bionic chip, not because of the amount of ram.

Sadly to say that after so many years,  Android still got a lot to catch up with IOS in term of processor speed. However, if you don't care about the scores and if you don't do mobile gaming, you won't notice much difference between Note 8 & iPhone X  in real life usage.

Is not fair compare iphone with android in speed and processor sometimes,do remember apple are the 1 who is taking of the whole production line which start frm designing the chips and os but android phone did not do that cos there are tons of hardware around for android

Just like samsung or huawei,they designed their own chips but they are not designing the os,compare to apple which the os can be design to maximise the usage of it own chip

Here's what I did when Samsung recalled the Note 7. I was sad it was gonna leave me because I loved it so much. I brought it swimming. Pool was no more than 1.5meters deep. But I definitely played in the pool for more than an hour (bringing out of and into the water). Came out, first thing that I realised.. Shit..no sound.. Then I thought.. Oh well.. Gonna give it back anyway, not my problem. Went for a shower and saw the speaker holes being covered by water. Blow dry and tadaaaa.. Working like a charm again
*
as i know u need to turn on the music loud for the speaker after u submerge the phone into water to let the water come out, so do my friend phone sony z5, the speaker sound will be lower for a period of time after submerge to the water

Anyone have the similar issue? Auto brightness on. When under direct sunlight the screen will look slightly grey then will turn back to the vibrant colours
*
Notice the same thing also under bright sun

My note edge ( camera area) never got any scratches, and I was thinking whether it was also made of gorilla glass.

Most of the time I used my fingers to rub off the smudges of sweat and oily stains.

But on the finger sensor scan area got a lot scratches. Because on note edge we have to "rub down" our fingers on the button to unlock phone.

I didnt use much fingerprint scanner on note 8,still it got light scratch

today went to apple store to touch the IphoneX, one lady tested infront me , and told his husband, the entire phone i dont feel special but overpriced, only thing that impressed me and look into it is the wireless charger. i was like err. hahaha

but tbh iphone x LCD is so much better when they put along side with iphone 7/8
*
I like the screen too,look nice and the screen design is more towards bezeless compare to note 8 which still having small area on top and bottom

But in terms of productivity,note 8 still the best

I thought it is supposed to be fast charging. Not expecting fast as in adapter style but at least faster than normal cables?
*
it only fast charge with the adapter, the usb current in pc is much lower current than using adapter
even normal phone will charge slower using usb form pc

I installed accu battery and found that the adaptive fast charging happens at 1amp, not 2amp. At that time the battery is at 72%. Fast charging is highlighted as the charging option. Using the adapter and cable supplied with the phone. Is this normal? Or after 70%, to protect the battery, the current will be dropped?
*
The fast charge will only be working when battery under 50%
