I finally received my red 1TB Ultra after re-ordering from a different seller after the 1st seller on Shopee cancelled my order.
Had some issues with Gmail, whatsapp notifications but fixed it by setting auto-start, associated startup and background power consumption.
Now I am left with my work profile push notifications. I cannot set the same settings as the personal apps above. Anyone managed to find a workaround? Not a deal breaker though and might be a good thing I am not always stuck on work. lol. Let me know if anyone has a solution. Thank you.
