QUOTE(mafioso @ Jul 3 2018, 09:27 AM) haha Exactly, $7 is no small cost. Btw I bought a spigen thin fit for my blue phone. Tried to get a thin fit 360 but the price difference is too much so bought the one without 360 instead. So far I'm quite satisfied with the new case, kinda solid and love the "thin" feels.extra 7 bucks thats like around 20-23 bucks difference can pay for 1/4 of the shipping cost already hahaha |

QUOTE(mafioso @ Jul 3 2018, 09:34 AM) haha... at the end of the day, its still back to cases I heard there's only a few spigen cases that go well with hoda/whitestone. But I'm not sure for both thin fit cases. Maybe sakurazz can answer that since he can recommend which case to buy when using those SP. skins do look nice but due to different style of usage, it may or may not peel off after 1-2 months of usage my the side peeled off after just 2 months.. sad, it was a nice skin. then i just accepted my fate that case is the only way to go. anyway, i thought thin fit 360 is gonna be unusable if we use hoda or whitestone glass? as the bottom and top definitely interrupts with the case cover With that said, I haven't bought any SP till now, no SP on my display, haha |

QUOTE(mafioso @ Jul 3 2018, 10:49 AM) its fine if you're a gentle user tho i do have a few friends who did not bother to put SP on their note 8/s8+ and no scratches at all. as long as you have a good case, you should be fine cant wait for my incipio NGP case it will be my first proper case... not too thin and not too thick QUOTE(un_id @ Jul 3 2018, 10:52 AM) Me too, used to use it totally naked, but starts to see very fine scratches cropping up.. then i start to use cheap sp on and off (obviously bcoz the sp gave up after sonetime or i just dont like it looks and taken off) and use casing on my rough days.. actually i really prefer aluminum/steel back like the iphone rather than glass la, glass get scratches, dont tell me gorilla or godzilla.. Well I'm not a gentle user though. It's just that people like us, most of the time, are ok with micro/nano scratches. How long your incipio will reach you? One week? One month? |

QUOTE(mafioso @ Jul 3 2018, 02:51 PM) anyone experiencing super slow call connection with maxis lately? on the note 8.. or its the telco in general? meaning to say: 1. you tapped on the contact you want to call 2. the call only manage to connect through after like 10-15 seconds (sometimes even longer than that) QUOTE(Julteh @ Jul 3 2018, 03:02 PM) actually i've been experiencing slow internet for the past couple of months. quite unstable up to the point that i have to use home wifi. ugh. Kota damansara - Rawang - Serendah area, all maxis connectivity seems pretty solid lately. Be it Internet or phone call. |

QUOTE(khainiz94 @ Jul 4 2018, 12:35 PM) What I also noticed is that maybe Maxis is reassigning the 1800 MHz band for LTE. I see. That could be one of the reasons.Maybe that is why the network seems problematic in some areas. I check via *#0011#, it seems for CA they allocate the full 20 MHz bandwidth for the 1800 MHz band. Previously is was only 15MHz. |

Was expecting cloudflare dns would fare better than maxis dns. Oh well. This test is just for fun, not speed competition between telco or anything. Just between maxis preconfigured dns and cloudflares'. And don't ask me something technical cause I suck at it.
Both on mobile data, with maxis on higher download speed. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « |

QUOTE(WaNaWe900 @ Jul 5 2018, 02:34 PM) Guess more to this side of Seksyen 6/7/8 not so good Maxis 4G, maybe the trees boost the 4G+ signal possible ka Seksyen 11 coverage is just OK. The place where I live in KD is surrounded by trees too. Stability and speed is a whole level in serendah, but still in KD there are times where maxis phone broadband becomes faster than my unifi at home.notice certain apps request access to the camera and usually block it |

QUOTE(un_id @ Jul 9 2018, 03:03 PM) for me i dont mind exynos, but i cant figure why there is 2 version either SD or exynos?? to be fair exynos is samsung’s, so totalky makes sense why it be used on samsung phone.. the US market mandatory require must use SD is it? QUOTE(Superformance @ Jul 9 2018, 03:14 PM) Sound like political issue to penetrate market. Otherwise, samsung might have gone with Exynos for all galaxy models I think. But that's just my opinion, a baseless fact from me. |

QUOTE(mafioso @ Jul 18 2018, 12:58 PM) https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/4620839 if this is the Note 9 then its worth skipping looks exactly like the Note 8 QUOTE(Xaser_3 @ Jul 18 2018, 12:59 PM) Rumour has it that the Note 9 looks pretty much identical to the Note 8, just with thinner bezel. I am definitely skipping, Bro. I'm joining u guys. Count me in. |

QUOTE(mafioso @ Jul 18 2018, 02:25 PM) to be honest still very happy with the note 8 despite it being a 1 year old model next month 2 years is a good time to change to a new phone, 3 years is the max for me so lets see if note 10 will attract me enough to upgrade. or note 11 haha QUOTE(Xaser_3 @ Jul 18 2018, 02:28 PM) Same here, really happy with my Note8. If the rumors are true, Note9 is kinda lacking "oomph" factor compared to upgrading to Note8 from previous generation phone, although I know its still early to tell.QUOTE(un_id @ Jul 18 2018, 10:10 PM) Hehe its also already my plan.. Skip and now trying keyone.. If ngam maybe want to get keytwo to get through the year until note 10 Can't deny you on that, keytwo seriously looks tempting for some including me. But Im gonna wait for Note10 instead, my first time skipping phone upgrade every year On my gut feeling samsung is reserving all bells and whistles for note 10.. Little innovation will be given to note 9.. Also, if many fan skip note 9, then a year later note 10 can be a big hit with fans already misssing the note series.. Marketing strategies? |

QUOTE(un_id @ Jul 19 2018, 12:06 PM) when kyone launched earlier, i thought the silver one looks ugly, based on pictures from internet.. Judging from your wonderful experience with keyone, I see no reason to not upgrading to keytwo. Clearly keytwo is better choice. Note 9 can bid farewell to us for now. Thanks for your sharing your experience with keyone btw. I might consider key line in future but now i got the bronze one, i think its beautiful and a well made device.. as usual Bb devices always have those little features that makes it more suitable for professional uses, even in android platform, it still have that Bb feelings in terms of UI. it also boast its more secure os, which is even more appealing.. i felt as safe as using apple device already.. lol.. if they slap in latest SD proc and better camera, i think i dont have anything more i wanted from this phone. but the battery life also makes me ignore the slower proc, i get through the day easily without even checking how much bateery left, put it on charge when i wanted to, not due to the battery is red already like on my Note 8 if i ever wanted to upgrade to keytwo, the only reason could only be to get the faster processor.. everything else is not much different on ketone, even camera is not much improved on keytwo.. for keyboard, i personally like the more recessed look on keyone than the broader keyboard on keytwo **sorry this post deralied from note 8 discussion |
