Just play the S9+, to be honest I really like it and it feel smooth even the demo set.

Any known issue on this phone? Feel like want to grab it.

If you are already on the S8+, not so much changes to make the upgrade worthwhile. Note 9 is on the way already btw. tongue.gif

Using the official Samsung Protective Back Cover
That's a lot of battery to be squeezed into a phone. More likely to happen in a tablet laugh.gif
If not mistaken our bro dumped his S8+ for the LG G6 biggrin.gif

Using dual SIM while roaming in Singapore, no games or navigation, just emails, web browsing and WhatsApp with occasional FB. Is this good or bad?

I would say this is considered ok by android standards. Those who claim 7 - 8 hours battery life are usually those who stay put a place with wifi connected most of the time.

Let's see what they pack into Note10. If suddenly they beef the battery up insanely or totally use Snapdragon, then we know the answer.

They definately wont lar. whistling.gif

1) Samsung will lose face.

2) Who is going to buy those leftover massive quantities of Exynos chipsets?

Battery life seriously below my expectations, ha ha. Other than that it's not that different from S8+ in terms of form and features, but it's as smooth as the Note 8. My mistake buying it - dunno why I thought it would be any different laugh.gif

What difference were you expecting bro? yawn.gif

Using hao5d now

Not as sensitive as normal sp

Isn't it hao hd? But it is a known fact that tg will reduce sensitivity, especially for curved screens like the S9/S9+, Note 8 etc. But many here said no issues, but myself experienced the same loss of sensitivity, especially on the sides/corners.

last i heard its hao5d during s8/s8+/note 8 era.

anyway, i agree. i feel its not as sensitive as normal SP. but it does look great. but i wouldnt recommend it lol

That is why Im back to square one, using cheapo silicone SPs that will peel quite frequently. But its Rm10 for a month or 2 usage. So Im not complaining.
