        Aadrian, 08 Sep 2018You mean the latest security patch update?No software updated mentioned bug fix also

          The percentage counter does not tell the real battery capacity at all, folks. The battery degrades after chargings and usage cycles over time. My battery on my Note8 can only now hold some 3100+ mAh instead of the original 3300 mAh.

          Pro tip is to avoid charging up to 100%, trickle charger the battery to 80%, avoid not going down to less than 40%. Turn off or avoid fast charging add it can degrade the sealed battery faster.

          I tried to maintain between 40% - 60% charging to reduce wear and tear to 10 times longer longevity of the battery, but it's too much hassle. So I keep charging to up to 80%. AccuBattery's notification to remove the plug is passed on to my smartwatch. Convenient.

          As for the S7 Edge battery replacement, I'll have the battery replaced since it's 3600 mAh capacity - pretty decent.

I also installed the app on my workhpone Huawei Y560 and it shows 77% battery health, not so good after 2 years of heavy use.

                  The AccuBattery app is pegging my Note8 internal battery up to 95% efficiency. That is after 10 months of use. Still very much excellent.

                  I used the same app to measure a 29-month-old S7 Edge, and shows 77-78% efficiency. So, the story is, Samsung is charging almost $90 for labor and material to replace the sealed battery. It will take 3 days.

                  This is the caveat of sealed batteries. 3 times more of the cost than a removable battery you can replace yourself, and 3 days of waiting. I've never had any of my Galaxy Note phones wet, or in rain, so water proof is never an issue.

                  At this rate, I expect I'll need to replace my Note8 battery on its second year, when it reaches some 85% battery efficiency.

                        While I highly recommend to anyone who don't have a Note8 to get the Note9 instead, there's very little reasons for Note8 users to get the Note9.

Basically the S7E is the Note7 without an S Pen - been using it as my main phone to see if I can live with a smaller screen. It's certainly small and better to hold.

                                  I still reach for my Note8 to for my writing and sketching needs - I would choose the Note8 if I had to carry one phone. But there's something as compact as the Note7 or the S7E. Right now, the S7E has only 78% battery efficiency after 29 months of use - I will have to change the 3600 mAh sealed battery at a legit Samsung service center. This is the bad thing about sealed batteries.

I used the Nokia Lumia 930 for more than 3 years… I don't see reason to upgrade every year anymore as I liked to do so in the past, and I like high end phones which are incredibly expensive as of last years. But the Note10... who knows...

But I don't use it as my phone, I have the Note8 for that, better and faster updates and a more future proof 18.5:9 screen and double camera. I am using the Microsoft Launcher on the Note FE and I have quick charge turned on on the FE, whereas on my Note8 it's turned off. I use the FE more to try things out.
