No need to clear up your phone. just do full backup to ur samsung cloud account and google account, for peace of mind.  laugh.gif

Thank you for the suggestion.

But damn I am still in dilemma whether I should send it to SC thru delivery or go to the SC on my own (which is far).

Hi. After using for a month. Battery life is like 9 - 12 hours before I need to charge. Is this normal for all note 8? Want to check to see if mine was faulty.

Like if chatting on WhatsApp and some light browsing can see the percentage drop quite fast.

Any help is appreciated
*
Mine can't even last 8 hours. Max I can get about 5 hours but I use really alot and before we can know your average battery life you need to verify the following

Auto brightness or manual brightness ( usually how many %)
Single SIM or dual SIM
WiFi or mobile data (% percentage for both)
Performance mode at (optimized, game, entertainment, high performance)

Background running apps ( do you clear running apps or restart your phone)

Smart lock on/off

Apps and email syncing schedule

Bluetooth on/off

Coverage signal at location

Mobile hotspot on/off

Apps push notifications

All this factor must be accounted for

Quite happy to see battery drain slowly compared before using this BK apps.

- Bluetooth on for Gear S3
- 100% Mobile Data 24/7 usage
- App push notification: Whatsapp, telegram, Outlook, Gmail
- Last charge: 12.30 am last night

Well I just want to change the phone's body because the color of the body chipped.  Mine was from the 1st batch.

for phone body replacement, it will take more time i believe. my friend got same issue like you. SC estimate repair in 2 weeks. if you are lucky, they might be do a replacement set 1 to 1 (this is rarely happened)

Wah. 700mb for security? Quite huge. Is it ok after the update? After the S8 oreo debacle, I'm waiting for a while before updating. Even security. Haha.

The shop where I bought note 8 said that they can help me to deliver to Samsung Center if i wanted.

I just called them. They said I need to send my unit to the center to investigate whether it was manufacture defect or it was my fault. If it is manufacture defect, they said they will change the body for me.

Retail is 3999

3299 to 3499 usually because of promotion with discount voucher.


It's the same but make sure you check properly that the cheaper one are original.
