Samsung Raya Promotion for S9 n S9+. Protection Plus FOC.

i know but it only mentioned extended warranty..

Q1. WHAT IS SAMSUNG PROTECTION PLUS?
A1. Samsung Protection Plus provides customers with a combination of a (1) one-year warranty extension plus one (1) screen crack repair at a minimal service charge.

but it does not mention anything about protection plus

and, side news note 9 gonna launch later and at note 8 thread, bundled with gear sport with 3.7k for the 128gb

guess is after remove gst price so become cheaper?
and why note9 preorder gift is gear sport? bangwall.gif  bangwall.gif  bangwall.gif  vmad.gif  vmad.gif  vmad.gif  mad.gif  mad.gif  mad.gif

One of the reason and due to competition
Although Samsung still number 1 in term of sales volume but if not mistaken, big market like usa, India and China dropped on yty basis.

Note 8 n S9 aren't selling as much as they anticipated..
The gear sport only worth 800, from shopee

You did not get this offer?

[attachmentid=9963507]

As long as you have the voucher and e-Certificate, should not be a problem to claim it.

Got
Hence my question, there's no confirmation from Samsung about the protection plus aka e certificate

Or that expired vouchers is e certificate?

64Gb is more then enough, as i'm still using note 5 until now with decent of storage still available, of course there is external micro SD extension for the S9+.

With 3.3k from Senheng, i'm getting 3 years warranty (I dont change phone yearly), seem a great deal on that.

Just the grip, extra thickness and height seem not that attractive from the note to me, maybe just my problem.
*
Paying 3.3k for S9+?
Might as well add 400 more to get the note 9
Extra year warranty, gear watch

Actually, senheng extra warranty worth it? Covers same as manufacturers?

Oh? Is this due to poor workmanship or issue with TMax?
Do Whitestone have the same issue?

Imo it was due to the glue haven't cure 100%

Since the glue adhere on the edges, bound to have extra..
Now after two month, my tmax don't have any dust

Initially I was irritated by the dust so use alcohol wipe the side.. since it was my 1st time uv sp, din know if use too much force the glue will come out..

now second week of usage.
OFF: NFC
ON: GPS, Bluetooth, auto sync samsung email, bixby, edge bar
Most of the time is under wifi connection, abt 1-2hrs 4G. Amazfit Bip smart band connected all the time. Using nova launcher.

check if your aggresive wifi/cell handover is off, i guess this took at least 5% of battery due to weak network area (high rise tower and underground building)

It will bet better after a week or two
As of now I'm testing battery life on fhd+

10~12%/h wqhd
Fhd+ 8~10%/h

Not bad actually.

Standby drain pretty much the same 1%/h since my area usually 2 bar
If 3bar, according to accurate battery app, 0.6%/h

I tried on GPS for half day and notice tat the standby drain aren't as much as expected, according to accurate battery app, only extra 0.1%/h

Urs standby not bad since auto sync and Bluetooth connected on.

Thr aggressive WiFi was off by default..

Dont want AP set la bro. Paying that much money already might as well top up a bit and get original set.
Are this sellers reliable? Do they really give original set or ap??
Bcs the rm3200++ one i was talking about seem like it is from Tesco, so i think it is pretty safe?
*
aiks.. looks like price are up, probably due to sst?

previously able to find high rating shop s9+ 128gb around 2.9k

this seems reliable.. anyway, check the shop rating..
