Just received the Ringke Fusion case that I ordered from the official store on Lazada on Monday. Ordered Crystal Clear but received the one with purple bumper doh.gif

Luckily my phone is purple as well so no big deal. Thinking of getting a UAG case though for better protection.

I joined the s9+family liao got the 128gb midnight black version. Few hours ago I was asking about where to purchase but after that I went with my friend to lowyat to walk but then we passed by a shop that has leftover preorder units so I decided to pull the trigger. Got a UAG case and now I need a TG protector. Sifus please recommend thanks

UAG case bought at lowyat? How much was it?

No . Xone don't fit UAG . Whitestone is fullly covered , using it on my Note 8 but since it's fully covered, UAG dont fit at all . Need to be case friendly which is slightly smaller and not fully covered eg Hao , Hoda both from Tw

I saw a video review where an S8 with Whitestone can fit the UAG Plasma so I think we should be good. I'm getting this pair.

Last time my s7 edge 1 month use screen crack..change 3 times in 2 years.

Now want to protect my precious device..currently working in contruction site so need proper protection for my phone..

Can COD with this guy if you need protection urgently. Bought a bunch of stuff from him over the years, since the Note 2 days if I'm not mistaken.

I thought this phone charging speed should be faster than my previous s7 edge.. Turns out it's the same speed

Still the same Quick Charge 2.0 technology

When making purchases overseas or online, always choose their default currency. Never let them convert to RM from their side as it is always more expensive. Let your local bank do the conversion.

Just wondering if there would be any difficulties to remove the Whitestone Dome glass or any similar others, if it need to be replaced. Anyone has any experience on that?

Saw a video on this before, just use a hairdryer to loosen the adhesive then you can pull it off easily. Without heating it up first it will be very hard.

How much space does the system apps take up by default? Mine says 30GB. Is it normally that much?

Doesn't sound normal. I did a restore from my old phone and it took around 20gb only.

Just installed the Whitestone TG, very easy to install after watching it a few times while waiting for the package to arrive. Installation is very simple with the supplied try so if you have unsteady pair of hands it wouldn't be an issue laugh.gif

I have the Ringke Fusion but haven't used it yet after installing the TG. Will probably leave it till the morning before touching it further. The UAG Monarch is still in the shopping list hehe...

Omg guys, strangest thing happened!
Remember I told that I ordered Poetic Cases way way earlier than the S9 S9+ announcement?

And how the parcel cannot be tracked or might be lost at customs?
Poetic refunded me.
But I received the 3 casings today!

What am I going to do with all these cases, 3 Poetic, 3 Ringke hahaha adoi..

Wanna sell the Onyx cheap2? Haha...

My phone fell on uneven concrete and chipped the Whitestone TG doh.gif

No marks at all on the UAG case.

These are simple and similar items, a piece of tempered glass fixed to you phone using liquid adhesive. They might even originate from the same factory so for the TG quality itself I'm quite confident there's not much difference.

However, Whitestone comes with an installation tray which makes the installation super easy. No manual alignment required.
