The viewing angle is a hardware stuff. Specs of XZ display stated 160 degree and there is nothing much you can improve on. Software yes, but not by much. It's a hardware limitation, not a software. There is only so much software side can do.

Yes. hardware problem. Have to live with it. But will get used to it.

Already contacted them, stock will come next week !!!
I dont want to open flips for charging !!!
They confirmed the price though, it will be SGD 38 !!

They had very very limited units for the pre-order people. They had 2 leftover, me and another dude both snapped them up fast.

But large volume shipment is next week.

I find the screen ok, white not yellowish leh.

If you are used to the blue-tinted Samsung AMOLED, then a normal, correctly calibrated screen with neutral whitebalance will look yellowish until your eyes get used to it.

Day 1 Review

Z really finger print magnet, LED lights work fine.
Batt 20% depleted after 1 hour usage. 40% depleted standby at night for 6 hours. (this one not very good)

The power button doesnt seem very reliable, feel like it gonna drop anytime soon with rough handling. This remind me of N97 side button.

Because of waterproof thing, BT headphone will be appropriate as it is trouble some to open and close the lid especially for people who like to listen to music on the go. But then i dun like to bring around headphone... sigh...

There also many gaps between casing and screen which trapping dust.

somehow there seems to be more and more not-so-good comments?

I used to have this problem, turns out a app was sapping it. uninstall and issue gone. can u check what is using the batt? then maybe troubleshoot from there.
