Samsung Galaxy S8

So does anyone know why Vodacom only has the Grey version on their website on contract?

Doesn't make any sense to only offer the black model for Pre-orders and not on contract.

Hi

The s7 edge was not great and also didnt stick across the whole glass. It seemed to crack easily as well and reduce the touch sensitivity. I have not had any of these issues with the s8. The only thing I suspect is it may reduce the screen beauty a tad.

Does dust gather? - too soon to tell.

Does it fit with any case? - yes! I have it with a uag case. Bulkier than that you dont get.

The downside - the cover with the protector make the edge difficult to use. The glass doesn't quite reach the edge as well.

The glass seems to have settled overnight but attached a photo of the s7 edge same effect where it doesn't stock properly.

Hey. Thanks for the response.

You mentioned that the glass + case makes the "edge difficult to use".
Do you mean with regards to screen sensitivity or just by how it feels?

If it's a sensitivity issue I think I'll go with the TPU since I already ordered a very bulky Spigen Tough Armor case.

I didn't know this was also prevalent with South African devices. Hopefully, XFA (non-Vodacom) also gets fixed if it had the same issue.

Yea I think maybe because it's a small update and Vodacom didn't need to load their c**p on it

I noticed the red tint issue when you choose any setting other than Adaptive Display under "display settings" ,"screen mode". Maybe other guys can confirm if same happen with devices other than Vodacom.

I am installing update now. Will report changes

Thats why i insured my phone. Full comprehensive cover.... Not taking any chances

 

[skinndeep]

Mine was just delivered, can't wait to get home and set up

 

[marine1]

Ouch :/

And not insured
Surprised the ADH isnt covering screens ut heard from a reliable source, this "product" isnt making the money it once was for example on the S5 and S6 so.....

Same, always insure my phones

I actually noticed that it was not listed here when I looked the other day, thought it would be added but it seems ADH is over now. Really scary stuff. Better take real good care of this thing.
