The 4.6 inch screen can set always on display like the S and Note series?

The 7.3 screen is good for to use...but when on move (walking), high chance of drop due to knocking or sway from crowd.
This is where the 4.6" comes in handy.
Using the app continuity, it swap to the front
Since its small, a good hand grip is made...and could carry on enjoy the content

Ya same. But see the price I :eek:
So I think I will use the given case.

I will see if it will drop easily without peeling off the tape. Watched YouTube videos some never tear off and yet it sticks firmly

At first i wanted leather...after trying out the unco case, feels so good. Dont need leather

So far, I've been using the supplied case without removing the non-stick tapestrip, the case covers seem to be holding on fine without the use of the tape. I guess in time, when the case loses its rigidity somewhat, perhaps need to use the tape then.

That one..
It is a sticktly tape whereby it "paste" onto phone and makes it harder to be remove. I dont thunk it can be removed.

However, the case has a plastic sheet(those with some ad on it..) and needs to be remove. prior to it

Now the Mate 30 Pro also got people install Google Play Store on it despite there is no default Google Play Store

So what's the issue with the Mate X without Google Play Store? Don't know how to install yourself?

Sadly it is not as simple as installing anymore. UNLESS Huawei places Application stubs in the system there is no way to install such application due to the amount of system permissions required from them. No ordinary side load can side track that because Play store and Play services needs to be system applications with privileged permissions.

On top of that, Google is cracking down on OEMs that ship devices with Play services from Google to distribute apps and services. Resulting in lock down of the Play store and services.

There is a way to fix it for custom rom users but it requires root and rooting is generally not a good method for simple users and shipping a phone rooted is a huge NO NO.

Considering today is weekend so I guess stocks won’t come in. Monday may have chance. That’s why I say if StarHub Monday got black I after work I go down already as I’m on half day leave on Monday and my workplace is near Vivo

Anyone see any local shops selling Galaxy Fold cases yet? The Kelvar one in the box doesn't look protective enough.

Fold owners, what do you use to clean the main screen? The recent Samsung Fold safety video says to avoid water. So a lightly damped cloth to clean the screen also cannot?

I used microfiber cloth. I have also used a slightly damp cloth.
