tbf the g6 comes with a 2-year warranty, meaning you could go to them when the battery life is going to **** to get them to change it...

batteries do not have the same warranty as their devices

more likely the battery warranty is only 1 year long, this is quite standard for many electronics including laptops, regardless of how long the device warranty is

you also do not know if battery's natural charge cycle decline is covered by warranty, they may argue it is not a defect as it is expected behaviour of any smartphone battery, previously when I took my G4 to the service centre to complain on the battery life brought about their marshmallow update they also didnt fix it since it was 'software related' (i.e. not a defect, simply bad OS optimisation by the software devs)

Oh you're right. Normally the phone is covered one year, battery 6 months. I'm guessing in this case only the phone warranty is extended to 2 years?

I just went Bugis junction telcos ytd. Singtel has ice platinum and StarHub has black demo. There's a Samsung shop nearby which have both s8 and s8+. I duno if the telco have the P10 demo (should have) but there's also a mobile shop at level 2 or 3 have P10 demo

Most likely is 1 year. The Apple Care plus warranty allows for up to 2 years warranty for the battery and can be changed if less than 80%.

Looking to transfer all my data (photos, videos, pdf, word) and apps from Samsung Note 3 to LG G6. Which application (pc or smartphone) have you used and works good?

Looking to hear from bro and sis. Thanks.

What I would usually suggest is:
1) Whatsapp - Google drive/microsd
2) SMS - cloud/microsd
3) Files - cloud/microsd
4) Apps - best is to redownload - if your Google account is synced with its app data, Google would ask if you would want to restore from your account when you sign in into the new phone. If chosen yes, it will auto-download all apps installed in your old phone (if possible).

I don't use those one-click backup type, never have the need to use one.

If you use Google drive for Whatsapp , how do you link back the existing photos and videos from the old phone to your Whatsapp in your new phone ?
