Galaxy Note 8

Just something I noticed not sure if it's been mentioned but in the gallery when you open a image there are more settings for photo editor pro. Not sure why it's not there by default but has some nice things you can do to a pic.

what do you mean "it's not there by default"?

 

[faniebraai]

Any feedback regarding scratching? I assume it's going to be just as prone to scratches as the S8/S8+

yep

 

[satanboy]

yep

Wot??!! More than the older phones?

 

[Krypt0n1te]

yep

Do you use a screen protector Fanie, or do you like your phone like your women?

I mean there are editing settings when you open a pic that I feel they could of just put the pro settings there as well instead of having two different areas of editing

My Note 3 does not have ONE scratch on the glass.

the conversation sounded like it was easy to get a scratch.

Doing a little Googling around many S8/S8+ owners are furious about their scratched phones. Fanie is obviously a gentle guy. I can attest coming from a Note4 to S8 that I find it a nightmare.

However it is well documented that the S8/S8+ Oleophobic coating is much thicker than other phones and it might in fact be the coating that is scratched so easily.

Looking at my S8 I don't know what to do, aaaand I'm actually a gentle guy too.

Anyone using Google assistant and having difficulty getting it set up? I cant seem to get it to play daily briefing and goes straight to web search.

I am probably missing a setting somewhere. Changed all the languages to US but no dice.

Did you clear the Google app cache and data?

Did you clear the Google app cache?

Yup did that and reinstalled as well. Will tinker with it further this weekend. Right now it's search with voice pretty much.

Finally got it working. Had to uninstall Allo. Reinstall it an uninstall it again. Don't know why I installed it in the first place.

For some odd reason assistant was only running in Allo.
