So going by your screenshot there are up to 1000 to get ?
Or more! Remember to put some food out after you collect a cat, as the quick toggle plate is empty otherwise!

Strange, sure you're not on AQDG already? I have COW one too and it downloaded the update straight out of the box after connecting to Wi-Fi. Does it not show up if you go to check for updates?Anyway to force the update to the latest version? I'm on a SIM free carphone warehouse s8+ still stuck on the previous firmware
If I had an android phone, I would.Or more! Remember to put some food out after you collect a cat, as the quick toggle plate is empty otherwise!
Hi there, yeah I am still waiting - according to various sources and daily chats with the amazon team. The delivery date is anytime from a week to middle of June - yes JUNE !
Why not just cancel and order again through Samsung via Quidco/TCB for 3.15% cashback in the process?
No it doesn't, it did do one update a week or so ago but it updated to the firmware before, strange that yours has and mine hasn't I'm on AQDDStrange, sure you're not on AQDG already?

Done - arranged to return for full refund. Tis a shame they wouldn't replace it again, insisted on a 'repair'.
So wheres the cheapest to purchase from currently sim free pls chaps?
That is so completely pointless but amazing at the same time, love it!Navbar Apps, can't stress enough how cool it is at what it allows you to do!
Great thing is it works on not just music, but any audio output!
ive had a few probs with the phone being in my pocket and it seems to launch apps even when its locked. Bluetooth seems flaky too, it struggles to re connect or even initially connect to my car when i get in. If I stream music via bluetooth to the car or my BT headphones in the gym it seems to fail a lot and I have to restart what ever app spotify / tunein radio etc) to get it going again. Anoying as hell!
Havent really looked into the edge menu thing yet, coming from an iphone, but been busy so when I get time ill see if its something i'll use.
I dont see the point in having that dedicated side button for that bixby(sp?) function at the moment. doesnt seem responsive anyway when you do press it and it just gets in the way! maybe its something ill learn to love when it works and I start trying it.
Headphones that came with it are a millions miles ahead of the Iphone ones.
Battery seems great. After a demanding 14 hour work day it still had 40+ percent with no additional charging. The Iphone 6 would have needed plugging in to the front of a PC or USB port in the car during the day to keep it alive.
Had the odd weird things crop up, for example the torch would turn itself on in my pocket or the button to fix it in portrait mode / toggle to auto rotate etc, would just change, basically any of the icons in that drop down menu. I'm not 100% sure why these problem are cropping up when I clearly lock the phone before it go's back in my pocket.
Iris scanner, what is this voodoo? I have never really bothered with security lock screens in the past as typing in a code or doing some special semifor swipe to check an email quickly wasnt my thing, too much hassle! This eye scanner though, sometimes it will get me to the home screen so fast it doesnt even display the scanner interface. This security im sold on. I wont go back to not having a lock screen now I have this option. It's the way forward when its so responsive.
I ordered a 2017 gear VR headset with the controller that should be here in a few days so will give another update then if anyone is interested!
Cheers,
Matt.
What were the pink screen issues you had?

Apparantly samsung are going to fix it with a software fix - ROFL. They tried to reduce the red tint on my first phone but it was really bad. It was at the bottom slightly to start with, but as time progressed it got worse and you could see a clear pink tint all the way up to about the top 1/3 of the screen when held at a slight angle. They replaced this with a brand new one.
Brand new one started off the same - slight tint at bottom and right edges. The bottom tint has completely gone but the right side tint is clearly visible.
That combined with the charging issue I am now suffering (not 100% sure its the just the charger though) is unacceptable for a £700 product. Samsung have got quality control issues they need to address.
Not going to wait to try and get lucky the third time.
Gunna buy from a shop this time where I can just return it easily and get a replacement straight away. None of this faffing that the Samsung shop do. Their customer service leaves a lot to be desired unfortunately.
So come on chaps, whats the contender to the s8 please?
