Any photographers here? Is note 8 comparable to any beginner DSLRs?
*
if compare from various aspects, the answer is no
but it is depend on your purpose and up to what level is the quality that you want

Guys....

Any solution ya..
[attachmentid=9748434]

camera flare while taking photo facing strong light source is common issue for Note 8
i was the first one shared this
if you google, you will be able to find many complaint about it
no solution, not sure that is it possible to claim for a new camera lens or not, and will it solve this issue or not

btw, your case is very serious

Normal users wont bother checking it laugh.gif

I used to check it with my older phones from time to time

But now I've reached the stage where as long as the phone can last me whole day without charging.. im happy already laugh.gif

I dont bother too much about SOT now as long as my note 8 can last me whole day based on my usage haha
*
me too, not bother to check
because i am light user, so SOT vs battery consumption for sure look bad
but in fact, after 22 hours from my last charge, my batter balance still have around 60-75% before i charge again everyday

Yes, but that also depletes your battery life quicker with the higher charge cycles.

Having a full charge also doesn't necessarily mean getting higher % of SOT. Just sharing with you my experience. 👍✌
*
either you charge to 80% from 55% or to 100% from 75%, it is still count as 0.25 cycle
both after 4 times of charge, still count as 1 cycle

so it won't help to pro-long the battery life

my phone is pre-order unit, started to use since sept last year
full battery discharge cycles are 109 times and battery health is at 95.42% (based on Phone Info app for Samsung)
i charged it to 100% every night, 1 time per day for 95% of the time, remaining 5% are 2 times per day

No, it is samsung issue. We did test, i purposely send him whatsapp message, then notification come out, but badge no come out sweat.gif  sweat.gif

Tried even with phone in screen off mode, received msg, notification pop up, unlock phone, inside no badge, siang lo.. s9 also same problem la.. i search internet everyone saying this problem.. and all the setting on already give permission also sama saja..

that's why i said, if have to make u switch launcher, means the phone UI is shit man.. i prefer everything stock, u switch launcher u need to customize this tat again.

mine is working fine as long as the notification is still showing in the notification panel
will on gone after i swipe it away in the panel
in android orea have many settings here and there, so not sure that are those having problems missed out some settings or really a bug

yesterday, my cousin asked for my help to try a new full glue tempered glass product sample
turn out the design not fit so can't stick
my old cheap and nice tempered glass can't reuse cos dusty, so got a new side adhesive tempered glass, damn bad quality

end up, i contacted sakurazz today to install the T-Max
realized that size of T-Max is bigger than i thought
i am using spigen rugged crystal, the T-Max is left about a nail or less gap at both left and right side, a nail size gap for the top and more spaces at bottom but also quite close to the casing

Someone asked me about Full Glue TG from Shopee, I have ordered it since my 2nd TG has cracked at the edge.

And it came today and I just applied it straight away!  biggrin.gif

here is the link.

RM49
https://shopee.com.my/product/13664962/781951531/

This is for those who don't want spend RM150+++ for a full glue TG which gives you the same result by the end of the day.

- 100% sensitivity.
- Full Glue (of course).
- The black lines at the sides are not blocking the screen. (previously there is one TG i bought, the black lines are blocking my edge panel and made my screen looks smaller.)
- Full screen cover (you can still see your edge panel)
- Cheap
- Easy to apply (15minutes)
- Casing friendly, I am using Spigen Rugged Armor.

In general, it is a very good deal. To me it is almost the same as the one which is selling at RM79 (don't want to mention the shop name tongue.gif )
*
from the picture, its size look so big, especially for the top and bottom coverage..
but you can use Spigen case!!

( I dont know how to attach properly, very hard to use lowyat's attachment tool lol

wow, it fit until like no more space
i try to avoid this size of screen protector because its side will get press up from the screen under some situations such as using a very tight car holder, etc

my current screen protector is little bit smaller than yours, can see a tiny gap at both sides
not dare to try my car holder for now
because my previous screen protector which is almost same size, really get press up

just brought spigen liquid air cover and tmax tempered glass protector from Sakurazz. phone looks refresh again.
*
i am also using tmax from sakurazz
the screen protector just feel like glass, not like the those side adhesive SP which not really feel like glass
display is clear and good
after 1 week, you will need to use water to wipe the side of the SP to remove the dust stick on it, be gentle and not to remove the glue
it is more sticky to dust before first wipe
