I'm probably the first person to crack the S21 screen sweat.gif

Was working, phone on top of the table, didn't noticed it and accidentally pushed it off.
Usually would be fine as table only around 1m height but screen hit the edge of the table feet which
was metal.

Thankfully, phone was covered with screen crack warranty, this wasn't the Samsung
Screen Crack warranty though. 3rd party one that my SES gave out under Etiqa if I'm not wrong.
Claimed the warranty. Had to wait 2 days before sending to SC as they didn't have the parts.

Great experience with the Samsung SC as usual. Kudos to them, only took 2 hours
to change the screen. Apparently the screen and the aluminium sides come in a set so
my sides were changed too even though it wasn't damaged.

Hi. I am interested to know more about this Etiqa warranty. They seems cheap at about RM80 only. How do you claim? Where can you claim? At original Samsung service center? Thanks

Don't really know the details of it actually. Seems like it was a promo the SES is doing to encourage people to buy from their store.
Yeap claimed from original Samsung SC. Have to get the claim approved first, which was done by the SES guy who helped me with my phone when I picked it up then proceeded to do the repair at the SC. I think Samsung's own screen crack warranty around rm100+/- too might be less hassle since no need to go through 3rd party approval.

no casing or screen protector applied?

On ringke onyx casing. No sp. Casing saved the back glass I guess.
Probably a tempered glass would have saved the screen but can't stand using tempered glass too much hassle with the glue etc and the off chance that the FP sensor might not work properly. Will just have to be more careful now! No more warranty. Can't imagine the cost to replace the screen without it. sweat.gif

Thanks for sharing. Sometimes, even with tempered glass, it wouldnt save you. I got my LG phone with tempered glass installed. Kids drop it from sofa to floor ... 2 feets... TG safe, but screen cracked. I was shock.

And Samsung screen still cheaper. Iphone X Max ... .. replacement cost rm1800 for screen. Have to bury it and not worth to replace it rclxub.gif

What is SES?

I couldn't find Samsung's own insurance. Those I Google are 3rd parties like Etiqa etc.

Wondering if 3rd party adapter will heat up or not. How about your cable? Are you using Ugreen cable too? I wanted to get this, https://shopee.com.my/UGREEN-Fast-Charging-...3440.5004537420 but not sure if it supports Super Fast Charge and will heat up or not.

my ugreen charger has 4 ports (3 usb C PD, 1 usb A) - 65W
so far no encounter overheating or any issue with it.
- if 1 device connected, SUPER FAST CHARGING (in the phone screen)
- if 2 or more device connected, FAST CHARGING (shown in the phone screen)


make sure to use with 100W capable cable (20V 5a is ok)
the shopee one is ok

Yeah .. Could be. Maybe speaker not capable for max. Try not to max the volume. 90% maximum. I believe all phone will have same problem. Better use headset.

Are you using S21 ultra bro? If yes means
1) Yes it has macro mode since now ultra wide lens has autofocus mode switch to ultra wide and bring your phone closer to subject it automatically switches to macro mode
2) For me was it’s really has better vibration motor than other Samsung devices in setting you can disable or change vibration mode
3 ) infrared light? Do you mean that red one in rear camera? That’s one is laser autofocus system( sorry if I wrong in this question but others 2 might help you)

You see the red dot at your rear camera. That is not infrared red. That is laser focus.

You hear and feel something moving.. that is your camera lens OIS ... move around... That is normal.
