Doesn't matter really. No root since the bootloader is locked but other than that, both processors are direct competitors so you shouldn't really feel a difference in performance. What's the model number? N950U?
Should I get s8 with or without warranty, and do all with warranty ones include accidental coverage ? Also, does accidental coverage include original screen replacement by Samsung shops here ? Difference between with/without warranty seems to be 15000 these days.
All official warranty models include accidental coverage and some free data offer with Jazz 4G.
Accidental coverage basically covers you for 'accidents'. If you break your phone by accident, you have to go to the Service Center, fill out a claim, describe as best you can how the accident happened, and give them a few days to get back to you, if your claim is approved, they will replace your screen with an OEM part and return the phone to you. However, many people have said this entire process takes very long and sometimes they can refuse your claim, in which case you'll be required to PAY the full amount for a screen replacement, which for an S8 is very costly.
Entirely up to you, I bought the model with no local warranty, used it for 4 months, sold it at a great price and had no issues with the phone.

Hey Murtaza seeing as you have used the S8+ and are now using the Note 8. I wanted to know how are the battery timings on both of them? Will they last a full day on heavy use etc? I'm leaning towards a Note 8 but if it doesn't even last a day I might consider S8+.
I've been using Xperia Z2 for the past 4 years and the battery timings were great on this. I used to get 2 days of use on a single charge. But not it has dropped down to a single day which is not that bad.

It wont last a day on heavy use(Gaming or graphic intense) with middle to full brightness
Altough with moderate use it can easily last a day with full brightness as well

S8+ had an advantage because of its 3500 mAh battery so it easily gave me around 7-8h SOT and got me through the day with moderate to heavy usage while set to full resolution (1440p).
Note 8 although has a slightly smaller battery (3300 mAh), is running on Android 7.1.1 instead of 7.0 and has slightly better optimization, so I'm getting the same and sometimes slightly better battery than my S8+.
I'd suggest the S8+ since it has a larger battery and once it gets the Android 8.0 update by the end of this year, it'll be on par with the Note 8 in terms of software, so the battery life should be just as good if not better.
Anyone having issues with Google Assistant after Bixby came?
Google Assistant doesn't work on my phone anymore.
PS: My bad, got Google Assistant back [emoji14]

Another thing. Should I get S8+/Note 8 or wait for pixel 2? Would that be worth it?

I can't say yet.
Wait for the launch event today and then we'll see how that goes up against the Note 8/S8+.

Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming. -
SolitarySoldier:
if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff. -
SolitarySoldier:
Phil keeps talking about breaking barriers to gaming, making it accessible on all platforms yada yada, while killing competition and creativity at the same time. the fact that i actually believed him for a second lol

"These changes are not a reflection of the creativity and skill of the talented individuals at these teams or the risks they took to try new things" ... seems to me that's exactly what it is

Microsoft deserves all the hate they can get. Seriously i can't explain how much i want to curse them out. -
XPremiuM:
They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.
-
XPremiuM:
What's the f*** is wrong with them? I mean really? Have they completely lost it? F***ing retards.

XPremiuM:
So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.Necrokiller said:
