The POS scren protector had to go today.. it was already looking like I'd wrecked the phone which defeats the object in my eyes.

Happy side effect, the fingerprint sensor is much better

My S10+ took 9 days to arrive.

Does anyone know if EE's Wi-Fi calling will work with the Snapdragon model from eGlobal?

Is this for the snapdragon model too?

Also, do you get an invoice?

The Snapdragon version is the one I have. Comes with UK plug and nice clear case.

I didn't get a paper invoice only an email invoice, isn't any VAT information on the invoice.

So the trade in return package from Samsung consists of a bag and a return label. No box.

Any reason why I couldn't have just been emailed the return label...

Saves people the hassle of having to print and stick the label.

I quite liked the trade in process - nice and smooth

9 days afrer dispatch email? Who was the courier when delivered in the UK? And was the plug a 2 pin to 3 pin adaptor?

Thanks buddy. The Snapdragon model is supposed to be superior in terms of performance and battery. I'm getting rubbish battery life on 4G with my Exynos version and seriously thinking about ordering from eGlobal. The reviews online are terrible but you received yours no problem.

Was it sealed and brand new?

March Security Update is out now for the S10

Just downloading mine for the S10+ too, says improved stability of the camera and Wi-Fi performance.

Yep, to both.

The hard case that comes with it as a bit naff, so I bought a Spigen Liquid Air case for mine and couldn't be happier.

I actually really like it. Its better than the TORRAS Crystal Clear TPU case that I purchased. Granted it doesn't offer much protection but I normally don't use a case on my phones so wanted something as minimal as possible.

Just for my own peace of mind, Snapdragon variants of the S10 will still gte OTA updates if used in the UK won't they? I've always had Exynos UK SIM free but can get the SD855 S10e for £529 and would prefer that version over Exynos as the 855 fairs better efficiency due to being 7nm.

GMac11 · 25 Mar 2019 at 16:13

I apologise if this is an absurd question but is there anyway to mute the camera shutter? I have searched the settings high and low and I can't find anything.

BananaDunka · 25 Mar 2019 at 16:15

Silent shutter? Yes, on the volume flydown bit, pull it down and at the bottom mute system volume. This mutes the camera sound. There's little importance to system volume other than stuff like this so it's all good.

That's the best I've been able to come up with so far. As you say system volume appears to be of little importance anyway. I always disable keypad tones etc as a matter of course.
Cheers.

The only issue for me buying an import is not being able to sell it to mobile recycle website in the future.
