**** The Official Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Thread ****

[Cosimo]

I had the same issue, the web page was stuck on processing for me. I refreshed the page and got a confirmation instantly as well as an email.

It was stuck for over 15 minutes and a refresh lost it.

What did you use as proof of purchase ?

My paypal email uploaded as a pdf.

I had the same problem, I claimed just before leaving work and it hung on the "processing page" after submitting PoP. Thought I'd try again at home and it said the IMEI number had been used so no idea if it has worked properly or not and I have no confirmation as yet.

I tried again today but got the same with the IMEI. If no confirmation email arrives by Wednesday I will contact them.

Calling Three and getting a PAC code is always such a chore, anyway 30 minutes later and I have it.

However the guy on the end of the phone, as part of his pitch, directed me to Mobiles.co.uk T&C and started to explain that they could change my contact at any time as a third part etc. It sounds ridiculous, but did spook me enough to wonder whether the contract was legit. Or am I going to get stung later? Had another look on their site and on my contract with them and can't see anything suspicious... the contract is suspiciously good.

These were the specific T&Cs he was referring to.


Anyone bought from them before? Had any issues?

The contract is direct from the network, so you’re fine.

Thanks, I did a bit more reading and reassured myself too. Just underhand Three tactics I guess.

Hmm Battery has died now. After 3hrs screen on time. Definitely something wrong. I might factory reset

Definitely something not right
after 6 hours 15 mins OST I've still got 34% left & includes my S3 watch being connected to it

I would send it back for a replacement with it only being 1 day old..

4hr 50 minutes SOT for me on first full charge and I got 15% battery left
AOD has been on and I've been playing around with it a lot too.

Coming from a Nexus 6P it is quite different but the screen is much much better!

Similar story here, 3h 24 ost, and on 34% left, feel like I've been playing around with it all afternoon. Light gaming, internet browsing, Spotify etc. Heavier use than normal I would say.

Concerns about battery seem to be unfounded atm.

The camera on this thing is insanely good.

Anyone moving over from a S8 plus ? Worth the extra cash ?

 

[roysters]

id say only if you like the pen features. Some nice touches on it

 

[eggcup]

I love split screen!!!

 

[Soulja]

2 hours 3 minutes of screen time and I still have 58% battery left. I also have my brightness quite high.

 

[Egon]

I made it to close to 6 hours OST before phone died. I'd say battery is slightly better than my OP3.

 

[MLAM]

I had 5hr 30 mins before the phone shut down.
Better than my 6P even when it was new.

 

[Robzere31]

Phone finally died after 7 hours 41 mins of screen time. Very impressed with the performance so far.

Just installed the Whitestone done glass. First time I've done one, got a bit hairy at one bit. Apparently spirit level apps aren't as accurate as you' like in this instance.

The more you use this phone, the more you appreciate how good it is.

Does seem like a full on operation from the videos lol

It's actually simpler than applying a normal protector. The jig takes the guesswork out of it.

My surface wasn't level when I thought it was nearly lost adhesive over the side and the glass floated when dropped on the bubble and moved up. Good job I noticed and moved it back.
