hi, for most of the users here, do you take extended warranty?

I opt for screen replacement warranty. Lesson learnt from unfortunate event during my time with S8.

Update for the drop call issue.

To be more specified, I encounter call drop when I'm using Bluetooth to pair with my car player.

So far I never encounter any call drop without any Bluetooth connection.

Yesterday I tried to use another phone to make call to my S9+, there is no call drop for call more than 25 minutes.
(This is without any Bluetooth connection)

Today I tried to use maxis sim card in stead of digi sim card to make call again via Bluetooth to my car player. The same issue happen again. Call drop more than 3 times in 20 minutes call.

What I suspect now is it could be the Bluetooth issue.

Anyone here encounter call drop, is your phone call is connected via Bluetooth ?

Please comment.
*
I'm connecting my phone to my Bluetooth car audio. Usually I'm taking my work related audio-telcon in my car during early morning and didn't encountered issue. The only time it will drop call when crossing Penang bridge at the center area which happened to my few previous phones also (S8, mate10p, OG Pixel).

The drop call you mention at center Penang bridge is due to the location in middle of the oceans telco line is weak and unstable.
no matter you use Maxis or Digi it will 99% happen.

there is nothing to do with your phone.

yes im fully 110% knew and aware about that. u didnt understand the meaning of my previous post when im replying. lol

Interesting.. planning to get this or v30
My place signal lte also only 2bar

Mind sharing usage? As in like gaming hour, browsing hour?
*
FYi, i dont play game on phone.
most of the screen on time based on web browsing with Samsung Internet Browser beta.
im using Swipe Pro as facebook replacement, and using Messenger Lite for FB message client.
i dont use instagram/google plus.

main usage:
1. whatsapp (incl. via PC thus causing phone to always in "wake" state
2. web browsing
3. youtube (vanced version)
4. spotify during driving
5. call the most 1 hour/day. usually few minutes/day.

battery life for me is just average. smile.gif

The UAG Monarch in Red is really nice and not bulky at all... And perfect fit with Whitestone Dome TG... With the full protection, I can start putting my phone at back pocket jersey during long distance cycling.

bought replacement glass for my s9plus to replace my whitestone. it's not broken but due to my OCD, noticed last installation didnt align 100% perfect.
when remove and clean it with acetone and IPA accidentally broke it cry.gif

so, bought generic one from AlieExpress.

fantastic. as good as genuine whitestone. no sensitivity issue.
im using whitestone tray for this installation. it's own tray kind wooble abit.

at 1st, i'm shocked that thought no plastic layer to protect the glass and noticed kinda scratch (i also help to buy note8 for my friend; noticed got thin plastic protection covering the glass). refer below picture. contact the seller, they mentioned got plastic protection, double confirm and feel relieve.
