**** The Official Samsung Galaxy S8/S8+ Thread ****

For those with the red tint - I just got my replacement handset today and the difference is night and day.... or dusk and day...

Also they told me to just put the phone in the box as that's all I'd get... now have another set of..... $90 headphones.... ;) lol but more importantly another fast charge usb plug :)

feel so much better now :D

Does anyone know any negatives.. Not updated my s8+ yet been using for a full day it's fine.. no lag or red tint. This won't bugger it up will it ?

No it won't, the red tint comes out of the box. more over - can you guys tell me if you got TWO security tags when opening the box? I noticed both had 1 stuck over another which was already broken........

I would be surprised if firmware could fix it... but yes my firmware is add while yours is aqc9.

I called WE tech support, they give next day delivery with UK MAIL despite me calling at 12pm.

Regarding my Spiegel case, I have noticed it has slacked at the volume rockers and is no longer flush, this may be because of the times I took it off.... is there a way of tightening it?

Still cant decide whether to send mine back or not... the phone is pretty much perfect for me and I love it but when scrolling on websites with white backgrounds I keep getting distracted by the red tint on the left side of the screen only and it being white on the right side... That seems like an issue that no software could fix because its not even across the whole screen... if it was red all over I could just dial that out but the fact its red only on the left side.

Send it back, I spoke with EE - I received my replacement within 24 hours and I can tell you it is noticeably different!... couple more explanation marks to emphasise the difference!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do it.

There's a reason, they just don't work well with these types of screens mate. If i were you I'd put faith in the glass on the phone and go without one :)

I tried the tempered glass from iPro on amazon - what a pile of crap, advertised case friendly, I put the glass on, it wasn't even flush with the phone, I put the case on - the glass popped right off.

the glass wasn't the only thing that was popped right off.

Yup AQDD has flagged up on my S8 so I'll wait until I get home to download that one :) My device has been so stable from day one that I suppose further stability and performance imorovements won't be noticed by myself :p

yeah just send it back, when a software fix has to set your phone to -6 while everyone has 100%, why settle for second rate on a £750 phone?
 
I've had 3 spiegen (transparent, slim, hybrid), 1 ringke, 2 others from amazon. The ringke is good - but just so you are aware, over time the matt texture does peel a little on the corners, but it still feels and looks great all around.
