Been a Huawei user before my note8. I had an infuriating time with huaweis UI. It was just unpolished and felt like a chore to use. The camera though nice at first is so artificial with the AI overload.

After switching to note8, been very impressed and best 16 months of smartphone ownership. If I were to upgrade it'll be purely for fun.
*
Mind sharing which part of Huawei UI disappoints you? I'm already grown accustomed to Sammy UI and I really like them since grace UX, so jumping to other brand is something I really need to consider, especially when it comes to UI. Never had any huawei phones before.

one of the point:
latest huawei model come with the UI that built in some "AI" functionalities
so it will auto determine which function to turn on/off, adjust while you are using the phone
then, it took away the manual on/off/adjust setting, means user can't control it
but in fact, it become annoying, many are complaining and want to turn these functions off

example:
if your phone ringtone suddenly become so loud while inside your pocket and bag
the voice of the call frequently changing low and high, impacting both sides
but you can't turn it off or adjust
*
God. That is seriously annoying. I love automation, but taking away the manual access is even worse. Thanks for sharing 👍️

to be honest... new phones come out like water almost every months now.... yes I am like... hey that note 10 is sexy.... 12gb ram... bla..bla..bla.. so damn tempting...

but when I look back my note 8.... and my usage... naaahhh... unless note 10 or 11 or whatever come out with something for audiophile... then it will shake heart a lot...
*
They just removed audio jack... I don't expect audiophile criteria have any place in sammy design wise.

Yes, sadly Samsung has joined the no 3.5mm audio jack bandwagon. Future as I foresee will be wireless bluetooth headphones....😱
*
Indeed, I believe a lot of people dislike the absence of audio jack in the current and possibly future note line. I'm least affected by it, but I really don't like notch, and having s-pen becoming an indispensable asset put me in difficult situation to move on to other brands flagship 😭️😞️

Well, we win some and also loose some. What can I say.

Thank goodness, Samsung didn't go down the notch patch for their flagship. I kinda love the double punch hole, therefore the infinity O for the Note 10+ shouldn't be an issue for me.
*
I'm glad it works for you, moving on shouldn't be much of an issue unlike some of us 👍️👍️. Oh well, looks like another year of note8 for me 😁️

Well, to be honest it took me a while to adjust and finally playing around with the settings and thanks to those creative wallpapers made me settle in with the double punch hole.

Initially was also very frustrated due to the lack of LED notification but I soon discovered a third party app which now works even better than the usual older LED notifications.

No worries Bro, I still use my Note 8, S-pen in particular for specific work related tasks. Like you said, it's hard to let go of an indispensable asset 🤭😉
*
As much as I'm complaining about notch, pretty sure if I get my hands on phones with notch with decent performance, it'd be only a matter of time to get used to it. But I'm still willing to wait for Note11. Loose some win some indeed 😁️

Didn't know lack of LED notification could annoy people that much. What third party app are you talking about btw to replace LED notification?

i have many samsung earphones which will not able to use on new samsung models
the notch is fine during normal use because it is situated at the notification bar
but it is not nice when play/display with full screen such as video, photo, game
*
You mean wireless earphones or the wired ones?

I do light gaming and I believe most most people can see that coming when it comes to full screen issue.

Note 11 will be exactly another year away, as the Note 10 just launched recently. Admire your patience to endure for another year, instead of going YOLO like a lot of people.

I am using Holey Light by Chainfire to get the LED notifications on my S10+. It is still in beta phase, but since it's by Chainfire and the app works remarkably, makes me a happy camper.

I admire how these app developers take the effort to come up with fixes which should have been done by Samsung in the first place.
*
Well if someone gives me a Note 10 for free, surely I will go YOLO like most people lololol. Its just that I don't have much solid reasons to upgrade and note8 is still performing exceptionally well imo.

Gonna check how holey light works. Glad chainfire hasn't retired yet since he opt out from super su development. Love his works. A remarkable developer indeed.

I'm guessing all those wired ones are starting to collect dust in your drawer from now 😁️, unless u r thinking to use type c to audio jack adapter.

the problem is I did changed the screen once, but I cant remember was it for Note 5, S7E, or Note 8  doh.gif
my bad, forgetful, will call Samsung Care Line to check first before going to SC
Honestly, I can't. That's why lah confident bawa Note 8 dan cakap nak trade in for Note 10+.
Then the tech guy do the RGB test and said "hey did you see the screen burn on top?".
I said "honestly I cant see any screen burn" LOL  blink.gif
yes the Samsung guy. yes exactly on the notification bar! and I use night mode somemore...
So the tech guy said: mostly due to
i) overnight charging
ii) auto adjust brightness which may adjust till max always.

which I did both  doh.gif

so I cant deny the screen burn lah
maybe a call would be easier if like that  doh.gif
better check if you still have the warranty!
*
Woah, just how bright do u guys set your phone? My s6e+ almost 4 years old still got no screen burn.

I'm holding on to my note 8...still love it after 2 years... so now thinking of getting sony wh1000mx3 headphone...

My question is have any of you guys owner of note 8 tried listening to 1000mx3? How is the music sound quality from spotify for example?

I used to have iphone 6 paired to audio technica msr7...and I really love the sound quality... but ever since hopping to android, I can't get the same sound quality as iPhone 6 and at msr7....
*
I don't have xm3 but I did play around with xm2 with my Note8 and my father's iPhone 6 plus. In case of xm2 I noticed sound quality wise Note8 is slightly better due to LDAC support (listening through tidal hifi), the detail is somewhat slightly enhanced but the bass, mid and high gain are more or less the same between the two phones. Unfortunately, I absolutely have no idea how it fares against at-msr7 though.

Have you tried it yourself in local stores?

You also suggested Note 10+, so why not up car onto the band wagon 😂🤣

Audiophile enthusiast spotted. Sometimes those headphones can cost equally as much as our smartphones.

Too bad Samsung did away with the headphone jack but their USB C to 3.5mm converter has built in DAC. Have you tried the sound output quality yet?
*
Nah, not really an audiophile 😅️, I'm just an average consumer who really loves to listen to music.

Funny how lately I end up listening with my Sabbat E12 wireless earbud, which doesn't even support aptx, let alone aptxhd or ldac. Actually we're in the same boat, looking forward for audiophile guru to review those type c dac. Im guessing the performance wouldnt be any different from the built-in dac that Samsung used to have. If only those Samsung dac could drive more power to high impedance headphone...

QUOTE(Masculine @ Sep 1 2019, 10:16 AM)
Thanks for the feedback...if the sound quality is comparable between the 2 phones,  that is what I'm guessing all this time.  Wireless headphones using own dac while wired one use phone dac....
*
Indeed, bear in mind that was xm2 experience comparison, not xm3. But your guessing is just the same as mine when it comes to xm3. But still, as you already know, your best bet is try the real thing yourself at local stores.

Estimate sometime in 2021. As we already know, the 5G pilot programmes are being conducted but mainly in Klang Valley. Would take a while before they start expanding beyond
