refer to above posts about samsung pay
it seems like so hard to collect and some more 6 months validity only
to me, this type of design more means to rich people or business who always spend/purchase a lot
just like credit card points

if like this, it is not my favor
future when it support the banks that i am using, i will use it also

it is hard for me to collect the huge number of points to redeem even the lowest points item

many shops at Malaysia are still not friendly for cashless payment method

Just wondering, pay wave and samsung pay is using the same technology right? so even though they dont have samsung pay logo at their shop or the payment terminal, we still can use samsung pay and act as a Visa credit card with pay wave feature?

i means, many shops not willing to accept cashless payment
1) don't have the facilities
2) set the min purchase amount
3) always charge extra

You are not alone. Mine also have a small "dent", which is located at the very bottom bezel. And I can assure you, that, it's not a screen problem. In fact, the small dent is a defect on the oleophobic coating. From what I read from other forums, it seems that the first batch of Note 8 has issues on its oleophobic coating. Some have small dents, some have weird marks, some surface are not even.

According to tech reviewer Erica Griffin, she did hear some complaints on the internet where some Note 8 have similar issue. She claimed that Gorilla Glass 5 is the one to be blamed on this case.

I am sure some users in here would have similar issue on this. But they probably won't notice it at all since it's not easy to spot on.
As for me, it's indeed annoying to look at. And I am a bit disappointed to know that such a silly issue would happened on an expensive premium device. However, since the dent is located at the bottom bezel, plus it's difficult to notice unless there's a light reflection. So I decided to ignore it. Afterall, it doesn't affect my usage at all.

Conclusion: it's normal for curved screen device.

some don't believe the truth and insist that it is quality issue

Hi guys, would like to share my day 1 experience with the Zizo Bolt case as it just came in today after about 3 weeks of waiting. Very satisfied with the overall purchase (USD 44 inclusive of promo code, shipping, tracking & insurance). It came with extra accessories such as a holster that doubles as a front cover too, lanyard that can be attached to the case, and the best item - a tempered glass that actually works.

My daily armor has been the Spigen Air Liquid which is significantly slimmer and lighter hence this is quite a change. Actually planning to use Zizo mostly for traveling (rushing leads to high probability of dropping one's phone).







The Good
1. Value for money - came with many goodies!
2. TG was easy to install, fits well with the casing (TG doesn't end up being forced out - was impressed that it even fit with my Spigen Air Liquid), no significant dip in touch sensitivity (not even with the SPEN).
3. Extremely solid build with easy access to the fingerprint scanner (even better than Spigen's cutout).
4. Color range is impressive.
5. Wireless charging works despite the added thickness of the case!
6. Good grip, and satisfactory protection thus far (phone faced down, the screen does not come into contact with the table because of higher corners of the case).
7. An inconspicuous stand which allows landscape viewing.

The Bad
1. Side buttons are not very responsive, you gotta press slightly harder than usual but I'm hoping this will ease in a couple of days.
2. Due to thickness/cutout of case, accessing the SPEN can affect the experience for some users with maybe uhh chubby fingers.
3. Phone can be slightly difficult to remove due to how secure the casing is.
4. Definitely bad match for tight pants/your slim cuts/skinny jeans.

Personally feel that Chrome is better. Hence, why I disabled the samsung browser.

when ask for card u will tap ur phone at the insert card area?

Really? You mean at the pump itself? Or need to go inside and pay first then only come out and pump?

Anyone can share how to register ewarranty at mysamsung? I read in this thread before and I lazy to find the information .

and how to check whether the registration of warranty is completed.

We can't use Samsung pay on things worth more than 250 right?

I bought it at 11 street from tesco. Should I request tax invoice from them or they will send to us? any ideas?

This is what worries me. Lag and reboot / restart.

They built phone so fast with impressive hardware, Mobo and architecture but the software / OS  / apps are below par. Which causes the phone acting weirdly.

I understand your predicament. It's annoying to users.

But to do daily erasing of partition cache and reboot are quite time consuming.

I only think if there are any other better ways around.

The designers of the softwares /app  need to comprehend with the needs of the end users / consumers. To ensure no hiccups of the integration between hardware and software on this flagship phone.

I hope they do a better job.
