Damn, I was late... again. Two unboxings already.

I called the shopkeeper and he said it'll be with warranty, but when he dropped it off, I really wasn't expecting anyone to still have the ridiculous pre-order boxes. But anyway, guess I the free headphones and powerbank.

Anyway, here are the pictures:

Congratz, I though you hated punch hole, I guess it looks 1000x better than a notch.
Can you please share the price, I am also looking to buy one, preferably without warranty. On ebay it is going for $820, but for some reason it is not accepting my Standard Chartered Credit card.

I do, but if I got used to notches, I can get used to this as well. Even though it is quite an eyesore.
However, when most of the apps that I use have dark themes, it's kind of hard to tell it's there.

Where it really sticks out most, is when you're watching a video.

I got mine for 165k, with GreenTech warranty.

Without warranty, in the market it's available from anywhere between 120 to 140k. Imported from Malaysia, Thailand and weirdly enough, I saw a lot of units from Afghanistan and Myanmar as well. The Gulf (UAE) ones are really hard to find, I was initially looking for that since it was a lot cheaper.

If you do buy from eBay, how do you plan on getting it here, and then getting it approved as well?

Can you recommend a place from where I can get S10+ without warranty at like 125k ish max new/box open?
For the ebay part, my friend is coming from US and has a slot for 1 pta non compliant device so I guess that will not be a problem?

Congrats bro and the Prism Black color looks dope
Thanks. And yes I agree.

Definitely wasn't a fan of the white this time around. It looked very odd.

The green was nice, but I didn't feel like buying it.

The black looks a lot like the Onyx black from the S7 edge. It's not the same deep black like the one on the S9/N9, but it's sort of grey-ish.

Many congrats brother!!! Looks awesome in prism black... ENJOY!

P.S: Can I get those AKG headphones now? :p
Thanks Saad bhai. Hope the Note 9 is working well.

As for the headphones, I started using them and I can safely say they're no different than the previous models other than the look. The same overrated garbage. Sound quality isn't impressive at all.

Congrats! How's the battery life? I got S9+ in nearly 70k from Gulf. The battery life is not good though. Currently on 12% and Screen time is 5 hours 43 minutes. If I turn off one sim, it extends to another 30-45 minutes. Everyone's complained about this in Exynos models.

Too early to say, but it's not bad right now. I've got 1 hour and 10 mins of SOT, and 90% remaining. Even my Note 9 didn't manage that much.

Battery life did take a hit on my S9+ after Pie as well. But the weird thing is, having 2 SIMs active on another phone doesn't affect the battery life as much as it does on Samsung phones.

However, almost 6 hours SOT at 12% isn't bad. Most people don't even get past 4 hours with Dual SIM.

Nice phone.

Why not get that green color? Or is that not available with official warranty?
For some reason, I just didn't want to buy another coloured phone. The Note 9 was blue, and surprisingly enough, I got bored of it.

I saw the green in real life though, and it is quite fascinating.

It is available with official warranty.

Plus, now that they're using silver frames instead of the same colour as the glass, I'm not sure I'd like green+silver as much as black+silver.

Gifts were different. You're lucky you got the wireless charger, I'd have preferred that over the stupid 3 year old headphones.

    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.
