Also, any recommended sp? Don't really wanna go for clear coat anymore...

I just buy the el-cheapo thinner case (0.38mm IINM). Hold nice in the hand. Just RM12.

I prefer thin cases. Am extremely careful with my gadgets so casings are just a prevention better than cure thingy. The thinner they are, the better for me. Mind sharing what case yours is and when can it be acquired?
*
Same reason as yours. RM12 at Ustaz shop.

Thanks. I saw this before. The vendor was selling at RM20. I am using Vareo cases. Slim as well but silicon not tpu. Quality quite good. You should check it out.

Where's the nearest Ustaz outlet in PJ, you know?
*
I don't know if they got shop in PJ or not. Kota Damansara uptown has one.

The phone’s camera is a beast! Using telephoto lens to take this picture. Can’t get any near or similar with iPhone 8+ telephoto lens.

What kind of telephoto lens did you use?
*
Standard from Note 8, no adding 3rd-party lens or anything.

Winning on Mate 10 hands down also right?
*
Should be. I cant compare with Mate 10 as sold mine after a week of use. Cant stand their EMUI. Freaking unoptimized.

Can using Nova fix that?

I don't think Nova or any launcher can fix notification apps bar that big. Screen 2K but 2 notification apps bars almost half of the screen already. Touchwiz is better, every aspect is optimized.

You guys don't use Face Unlock? It's faster than Fingerprint reader. I less using the fingerprint reader as I see the Face Unlock more convenient and faster.

If face unlock dark place csnnot use.. iris much better
*
When in dark then just use other method to unlock, pin code or fingerprint reader.

As need to only choose one between Face Unlock and Iris Scanner. If compare which one is faster, then Face Unlock is the winner.

Damn, I just saw a scratch on my Note 8.

And its not hairline :/
*
Normal usage without a bump or hard grip using fingernail won't scratch it unless you put the phone inside the bag either have particle/dust/sand.

From my previous exp:
• Scratched by hard grip with fingernails as the phone slipped and automatically hard gripped it - iphone 7 RED
• Scratched by sand - Mi Max 2

Hi guys, visited Samsung store today to look at Note 8. Selling at RM3999.
Was told we can buy insurance coverage against cracked screen.

1. Anyone bought the insurance? Was told it costs RM100-plus.
2. For phones bought from Lazada, can we buy the insurance coverage at Samsung centres?
*
1. Yes the insurance is very good for those using the phone for long term
2. Yes you can. Within 1 month after you purchased the phone. Need to bring your receipt.

Did u manage to change a new set with the seller?

Mine was pre-order set, so self collect at shop. Unlucky for me, i already at home then noticed them. So they just changed the bezel not the new unit. If i inspect it on the counter and found it, i can get a new set.

Anyone know which Google Camera version works for Note 8 (Exynos)? Don't mind the portrait mode, just want the HDR+.

Anyway, why this thread still not close yet and open a new version? It's 6000+ post already.
