The Galaxy Note 8 (2017 edition)

not really, it depends on how you handle your phone. I've been using curved screen phone for quite awhile, from Note Edge, to S6 edge, S7 edge to Note7 and now Note8. Must have a good protective cover

Depends on your usage.
Ever since S6 edge, I have never cracked any screen before.

Or rather should I say al phones I used never crack any sceeen

i nvr put any SP since S7. I am using spigen slim armor case. Just dropped from table height today, nothing.

Dropped it on first day while getting out of my car. dropped in toilet at wrist level, all not issue

to add on, i've dropped my Note8 out of the fast-moving buggy and fell down the concrete slope before. It was without screen protector, but was protected with a spigen casing.

Thanks folks. The default given case you think can tahan?

The default case don't not protect the sides well. Don't use if you have buttery hands.

My note8 just flew out of my hands and landed screen facedown . It survived again

Spigen Note 8 Slim Armor Case. Orchid Gray, to let go.
Used it once, dont like it.

How do you take pictures with flash on? My light turns on momentarily but when the actual picture is taken, the image turns out dark/without flash.

You can have a lit flash while you take a picture. You need to Ensure the flash is set to auto or on then the flash will be activated once the shutter is released. The output photo will be the moment when flash is shot.

If your picture appears dark, check your settings. Make sure you’re not in manual mode where u closed up the aperture by accident or increased the shutter speed by too much..

I have tried for the past 1 year using different kind of screen protector, some normal price and some ex, currently I give up and been using raw. The touch sensitivity is so good. The downside is got to be very careful.

Use Whitestone.

I have been using Whitestone for my Note8 since day 1 and no issue until now.

Dropped my phone and the screen cracked Lcd screen ok though.

Anywhere to recommend to repair it cheap and good? Quoted price outside $260+. Don't mind travelling to jb to repair if it's significantly cheaper.

Whatsapp couldn't backup to google drive

Whenever I press backup, it will prompt a message "Unable to back up messages" when it reaches 100%. As a result, the Google Drive backup date stops at 1 December 2018. Anyone has encountered a similar issue or able to provide some advice? Appreciate it.

Lost my S pen for Note 8 during my trip last week. Anyone can advice where can I get a replacement at a good price as I understand the original from Samsung shop is quite costly?

Thanks.
