AnonD-754570, 27 Apr 2018SAMSUNG NOTE 8 or S8 ? If you were me, which one do you thi... moreS8 is quite cheap these days to get and has almost everything Note 8 has in terms of specs.Note 8 is still expensive and honestly it's the same price as Samsung S9 or even the S9+ on discounts. I would take the Samsung S9+ when it drops price.Until then,wait.

The game looks fantastic by the way.

      is this device's fault or game's ?

          On secound thoughts, I could say try this and that but I would be inclined to approach Samsung straight away as even if it works after a Factory Reset or whatever... I would not feel fully rest assured that the phone was 100%. but l hey that's just me.

          Best to be on the safe side. Get to a service centre.

              Updated S8 SMG950FD last week and now all the sensors are not working. No Iris, gyro, light sensors and GPS too.
              Never dropped the phone. So no way to cause a physical damage to hardware.

                  AnonD-260677, 04 May 2018deos anyone feel something difference after oreo update ? i... moreI can't say for sure that there are any improvements in performance following the upgrade to Oreo as I don't have any scientific evidence to back that up. Would be really interested to see any comparisons between Oreo and Nougat. If anyone could point to any I would greatly appreciate :)

                  What I can say for sure, and this is only from my perspective, is that I have genuinely found this phone (S8 Plus Exynos) has handled anything that I've thrown at it. I regularly play games daily and even though I haven't played the game that you refer to, I have played games that I would say are just as demanding. VR games though I have found can result in the phone heating up, not to an alarming temperature, but it does heat up but hey, perhaps that's to be expected.....I dunno.

                  I certainly would not say overall performance has decreased since Oreo, on the contrary. I feel (notice that I say feel, as I can't say for sure, this is not science!) BUT I feel that there HAS been an increase in performance overall since Oreo.

                  Even though S8 and S8 Plus users have had to wait much longer for Oreo compared to some other phones on the market. For me the wait was been worth it, as it has worked really well from the beginning .... the phone has been a joy to use.

                  In short: I can't say for sure if there has been either a increase or decrease in performance since Oreo as this phone has always been fantastic. Beyond expectation. Class.

You don't need to be a genius to know that glass may break when it is dropped. I sympathise with you but you need to protect your phone.

                                  [deleted post]Well is this not a bit like someone complaining on some car manufacturing website that they have to fill up their tank twice a day? It could be posted from someone who works as a sales rep and travels the width and breadth of the country each and every day for all I know.

                                  It's a bit of meaningless statement without knowing your full circumstances.

                                      Worst phone ever. Only one fall was enough to break the corner of my phone screen. It is weak. Do not buy this phone. Believe me. I wanted to change screen but costs almost more than half of money that I spend to buy this phone. Do NOT BUY!
