[OFFICIAL] Galaxy S8 / S8+ Discussion Thread

So, it turns out that my Anker Powercore was the culprit, as it's not compliant with the USB Type C charging standards, using the cable supplied with the phone would stop the charging at 84 percent. Going to sell it and buy the Powercore+

Have you actually had the need for a powerbank?

My phone gets me through the day with no problems at all. Haven't had to carry my powerbank around since I got this phone.

Not these days since i'm home most of the time, but I do travel every now and then, and mostly remain on the go, so it's always helpful.

Check this protector out. It is not glass, but it wraps around the edge and stick partially to the back. Allmytech is offering this at a reasonable price as well. But it will start shipping from the 5th. I have ordered one to check it out.

It was pretty obvious, a screen protector needs to be case friendly in order for it to work with a case. I'd suggest you by Spigen Neoflex, it comes in a pack of 2, and will work with your case.

If it's not case friendly, there's no point :/

Samsung released the AQE5 firmware which includes bug fixes, the new May Security patch, AND an updated rear camera firmware.

Now, I don't know if it's the placebo effect, but after clean flashing the update, pictures seem less noisy which is very nice. The camera is still very similar to last year's S7 edge, but any software based updates / improvements are always welcome.

As usual, due to the CSC differences, only a few countries have received it right now, so I downloaded one from inside the OXM CSC and flashed it, works great.

I bought s8 at first but due to poor screen condition after few weeks of usage, i end up selling my phone and bought s8+. Now i am worried about the screen. Currently i am using a pathetic leather pouch to protect the screen from the scratches. Anyone can please suggest me a screen protector which i can get within few days?

At the moment get a normal screen protector
To save the display
Then order some reputed protector and replace it when it comes

Yeah they are ripping off usually this same crap protector is for 100rs but since we want it for a new phone they charge so much.
