Just wondering, all these here are with wave option? I was just wondering about Maybank Amex since it does not have wave.

Also for loyalty cards such as Aeon, Bonuslink and Bcard, how does it work since these cards are the swipe type, not wave?

Haha, thought so. Was with my wife at a shopping mall yesterday evening and I took a few shots with her iPhone X and my S9+ to compare and somehow I still prefer the iPhone's processing (or lack off it). Anyways, good cameras nonetheless.

Dear all,

I am using a S9+ Black biggrin.gif , am thinking of getting screen protector and casing. Have shortlisted Ringke based on earlier inputs/comments and also pricing

Shortlisted the following combo:
a) Screen protector: Ringke Invisible Defender (full coverage) 3-pieces pack. RM 44 on Lazada
b) Casing: Ringke Onyx Black. RM 56 on Lazada.

Initially wanted to get Ringke Fusion, but think it might look weird with the screen protector above.

Anyone have used the above screen protector or casing? Can share your experience?

Thanks a lot!

Hi guys, just wanna ask whether anyone facing issue with DUAL WHATSAPP by samsung itself?

I'm using the Dual messenger for my Whatsapp and I'm facing incoming msg notification issue.

It seems like for the 2nd whatsapp incoming msg, it always won't show any notification at all IF i didn't open the 2nd whatsapp to check for msg...

Any sifu here can give some suggestion whether I missed out some setting or other alternative ways to have dual whatsapp? Cause I'm using dual sim with my S9+...

Many thanks in advance~

I think I might switch to Google Camera for pictures next time. I tried night shot and I was blown away by the app vs Samsung camera.

Google app:

Nevertheless, one thing bad about Google camera is not so stable. The shutter speed is slow and lack of a lot of features / filters. So I guess I will switch better them.

hi guys, today marks the 3rd day of me using the s9. until now, I'm still haven't fully explore everything this phone has to offer, but i think I'll get there eventually 😁

gaming and media consumption on this device is top notch, it is really great to be back gazing the beautiful amoled screen + dual speakers.

battery life is a bit better than my previous htc 10. although, it is because of me setting the screen to its highest resolution, and also due to me gaming heavily everyday.lol

Gosh, is this some bug or what?

But today I try using my another number to whatsapp my 2nd whatsapp, 100% got notification alert everytime....

Strange part is when I'm doing this purposely, all the incoming msg can come through without any issue, hence the notification also work properly...

I only notice this issue is because my client's whatsapp msg appear in my 2nd whatsapp app, but that particular msg is not fully downloaded by whatsapp, so it didn't have any notification for it...

I shall do more trial & error and hopefully can find out the root of it....

Wow so fast selling it. You should wait a bit longer. I've been using it for a month and really love this phone. I like the AOD so much which rally make my life easier. The battery life is also quite good even with AOD on. One feature that I really like on this phone is the Smart Caller feature which able to notify you if the call is scam or from telemarketer. Now I can block all the telemarketer calls which was very disturbing before. biggrin.gif
