Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017)

[Habrosus]

Has anyone spotted a blue A5 2017 at our regular retailers like MS Kasia WM? Can't seem to find from their websites.

I was disappointed that the usb c converter bundled with Samsung (A7 2017) only works for charging but not reading otg drives. After researching online for a while, I finally found a micro usb to type c converter that works on my Samsung A7 (2017). It also supports fast charging.�

anyone knows where to buy matte screen protector for A5?

no tempered glass please.

I used the bundled adapter from note 7 and it works well leh.

Could it be because of your casing which doesn't allow full insertion of the adapter?

Got it from Ringke seller on Qoo10. The group buy price is $12 now. Good quality & cheaper than local stores.

No leh. I tested the adapter @ the shop I bought the phone. The phone was without case then. Hmm...maybe I should bring the original adapter to the Samsung store and ask?

is it TPU jelly material? tight fitting enough?

i just got my A7 from singtelshop.com however the seal is broken.
Is this normal as the CSO said that the seal of all samsung phones are broken for them to do configuration.

Not soft tpu jelly. Comparable to spigen clear case. Yes, tight fitting

i thought the bumpers at the corners and borders are TPU material? can confirm?

 

[JadziaK]

What i meant is the material is not those filmsy soft case from ah beng shops. The corners are are very well protected. I have used Ringke on previous phones and it worked well.

thanks bro. i think the back panel of the case is hard plastic, while the borders and corners are TPU (jelly) material.

i wonder if it yellows over time? ><

seal broken? as in you see it as being resealed for the sticker huh?

all products from singtelshop should have the authenticity seal sticker. but if you notice they resealed back is actually normal, especially for samsung products..

ya this phone the capacitive keys no vibration.

another bug is sometimes when got notifications, the notification pane will appear at the top of the screen and some apps support reply, sometimes the reply button cannot tap one.

Hi all,

I had a play with one of these at Changi and quickly noticed that there is no Haptic feedback on the capacitive keys.

I did notice however that the phone *can* vibrate on incoming call so the capability is there.

Vibrate option was not present in the built-in Samsung keyboard but my question to you guys who have one is this: if a third party keyboard e.g. Google Keyboard (GBoard) is installed can you get Haptic feedback when typing?

Thanks in advance!

 

[DigDub]

I'm using smart keyboard and can set the vibration when typing.

 

[ifor.evans@gmail.com]

Awesome -- thanks. Deal breaker for me to have no haptic feedback when typing.
