Nokia 7 plus

I can actually provide sort of useful feedback on the screen brightness issue. It seems to be related to the phones that come with the Novatec screen (you can see what type of screen you have in the "about phone" section). That dude is right, it's like staring at a lighthouse in the dark, really frustrating even though it sounds quite silly. I am one of the victims.

I dealt with Nokia Support via the app, and got nowhere. I then dealt with Nokia Support via Facebook and got more help from them. Apparently someone from Nokia Support will contact me to organise a replacement for my phone. I am still waiting.

How did you find the screen description? Touch panel version?

Ah. Mine says Goodix
 
I got mine from Hi-Online @ R5399 at that time. Had a 10% discount voucher. So basically Foschini aswell...
 
Got the vrou's one from Cellucity will check it later. Alpha cell called me yesterday to say they've reduced the price of screen replacement from 2700 to 2400 I think it was
 
Which camera app do you guys use? The builtin Nokia camera app or the Google Camera APK?
 
Any one else get the phone to hot warning?
Noticed it a few times - seems like some protection system it stops charging until its cool enough - and phone was outside the other day did it as well (wife did leave it in the sun though :D )

Nothing on the two here.
 
In the last week I've had two pretty major hiccups with the phone (pie)

Once, it just flat went dead black on me. After holding the power button for a while etc I googled and discovered I needed to press power and vol-up together which reset it.
This happened when waking the phone with a double power button press to jump to camera.


The other was early this morning where I fingerprinted to turn the screen on.. and I thought it hadn't worked.. except it had. The screen was like on 0.1% brightness or something. I barely realized it was on. I can't make it that low manually. I switched screen off and on, and it was back to normal. (In the panic I didn't think to try adjusting brightness to see what happened)
 
Small things happening but I definitely mine is not working as well with Pie.
 
Yeah I expect to see some stability improvement updates in the coming months.


Anyways, here's a comparison :


Took a shot of my mess of a TV room with the regular camera on regular mode and then with pixel on night :

Installed the google camera app too. Wowsers

Check the difference between normal app and Google. IMG_20181115_223236.jpegIMG_20181115_223025.jpeg
