Please go to the Samsung Service Centre

The S Pen sensor is attached to the motherboard, so if the sensor is spoilt due to the broken bits, then you have to change the motherboard as well

Just request a quote from the Samsung Service Centre. If the quote is ridiculous as it probably will be... then go fix it at some third party repair shop. I recommend iRepair. I've used them before on a few occasions and their services are good and their techs are skilful and careful.

After the latest update, I do notice an improvement in the battery life, but I also notice that the charging percentage and the actual percentage doesn't tally.
I normally off my phone during charging, when I turned it back on again, the percentage displayed is different.

Anyone has the same issue?

If they quote too high then you say you go Apple Store to get a better solution.

After the latest update, the phone seems to be running smoother. Besides the average audio quality, there doesn't seem to be any other reasons to upgrade from this good phone.

Other than the fact that the battery is slowly losing the ability to hold it's charge. I wish there's a law to make manufacturer to replace the internal battery cheaply so there'll be less wastage.

Shows you don't need a Leica branding to have better camera.

It's weird that the Huawei FB account put up a review showing their camera is not as good as it's competitor's but kudos to them for being honest

Normal la. Samsung and Apple phones can't age well. Software update always screws up your speed or battery. In this case it's battery charging screwed up.

On the flip side xiaomi just introduced quick charge 3.0 for their mid/low range models with the latest OS update.

Xiaomi and Oneplus for the win.

Likely you've reached or used up most of the battery cycles. So the battery might be unable to hold the usual amount of it's charge now.

Lithium-ion works in charge cycles, one charge cycle when you’ve discharged an amount that equals 100 per cent of your battery’s capacity and the capacity of any type of battery will diminish after a certain amount of recharging.

 

[arsonn]

Haha. Used it for abt 20months. Always gaming except when sleeping. Charge too often ba.
