    Finally got my Exynos Prism Green. Now for the battery life

    I don't understand how people are getting these SOT figures - my phone achieves around 3-4 hours max and is almost empty by 7pm after taking off charge at 6am. I've tried a factory reset, reducing screen brightness etc. My heaviest use is a couple of hours of Netflix (downloaded to view...

    How are your silicone palm rests holding up?

    I've spilled a splash of liquid on my left palm rest and it's stained unfortunately. Overall they look fine though.

    UK: Galaxy Note 9 Pre-Order Thread

    We do seem to get a raw deal. The new Galaxy Watch offers a free wireless charger duo worth £89 if you order direct from Samsung or Carphone Warehouse, but the only deal I've seen on the Note 9 is a free wireless charger if you pre-order through CW.

    UK: Galaxy Note 9 Pre-Order Thread

    FYI, if you pre-order from Samsung direct, go via TopCashback as they are giving 5% back on the price (5% appears to be before VAT) so I've got a cashback credit of £26.97. Every little helps as they say!

    Yeah, I've always ordered direct from them. Don't remember what happened with my S7, but remember being surprised with the S8!

    All Day Battery Life

    Fingers crossed this is my experience then. I often run down my Pixel 2 XL to around 75% before I even get into the office (mostly Netflix on the morning commute). It gets down to ~40% before I leave the office and I often don't notice it until I'm about half an hour away from leaving the...

    UK: Galaxy Note 9 Pre-Order Thread

    When I pre-ordered my S8+ last year it arrived earlier than expected. Maybe it was a one-off then. I'm sure I've read others post in the Samsung forums about receiving their devices early. I've pre-ordered from Samsung now. The blue 128gb model.

    All Day Battery Life

    This! I don't understand why Samsung have stuck with a charging standard that is a lot slower than the Google Pixel 2 USB-C PD and the One Plus Dash Charge. They've offered Quick Charge 2.0 since the S7 I think? I have a Pixel 2 XL and am moving primarily because of the awful screen, but I...

    UK: Galaxy Note 9 Pre-Order Thread

    Is everyone pre-ordering from Samsung direct? I know they usually dispatch a lot earlier than their official release date. Has anyone had any previous experience of pre-ordering Samsung phones from Carphone Warehouse? Do they tend to ship early or only on release date?
