those who using Galaxy S8+, how was the battery ? Is the battery life in the acceptable manner ?

I compared before my iPhone 7 plus with my friend who using S7 Edge, found out, it has better battery life if compare to i7+.

Not sure how it perform in S8+ ?

wow, official Samsung preorder already got some out of stock. the demand is slowly picking up but surely slower than what S7E and S8 had achieved last time. with no discount means no scalper this time which is good and reflects the true picture of the local market.

Yea, I still remember during S7Edge pre-order time, it sold out within 30 minutes. Then it come with another 2nd round of pre-order with less discount and lower capacity of memory card.

Any one know which version we are getting S9+? Exynos 9810 or Snapdragon 845?
Will be getting my on 9th March. Being changing phone from S8+, then to LG V30+. Now to S9+ in less than a year.  Hope I am not regret change to this one again. Will missed the wide angle lance and Quad DAC from LG V30+ though.
*
Any reason you change your S8+ and LG V30 ?
From S8+ to S9+, not much different in design except some improvement over camera, loud speaker.

Yesterday watch a youtube video, there are comparison on battery between various handphone such as S8, s8+ iphone x, pixel 2, S9, S9+, LG V30..
Best performance is LG30.

Just tried with my old S8+ screen protector which came bundled with Starter Kits during previous pre-order. It matches S9+ perfectly. No need to hunt everywhere for screen protector already, yay.

I remember I read the review on S9+, there is some slight changes on the screen, S9+ smaller bezel if compare to S8+

Anyone here bought S9+ from Digi? I got 1 Digi set but notice the included case in the box does not fit the phone perfectly and it even cover the fingerprint sensor. See pic below.

My wife also using the same phone but her unit was preordered from Samsung. The case included fit perfectly.

switch from iOS to Android. Tried to install Soda Crush to test the gameplay experience. First of all, the loading is faster than iphone 7. But somehow the gameplay experience is not as smooth as iphone. Feel lag during gameplay. Not sure the game not optimize for Android.

Still undecided whether the S9+ worth buying now or not. I read the previous post, but after that no more people report to have the dead spot issue any more. Any user that having the dead spot problem please report here.

I wonder it is happened on specific manufacture date of S9 only or it is random. Mine is produced on 11 Feb 2018. No issue so far.

another firmware update is already gone live for few countries which fixed the call quality and some improvement.
I read on some forum, it did also improve the touch screen sensitivity.
