Just bought a QC 3.0 powerbank for my phone from Capdase for 1.7k. Tapos 5 minutes later I found a QC 2.0 powerbank from Asus for 1.2k. Sayang since my Note 5 supports QC 2.0 anyway

Well hopefully the powerbank lasts long enough until the Note 8 comes out which is most likely QC 3.0.

QC 4.0 is the rumored spec with the new Qualcomm 835... probably the new Exynos supports this also.

Still no Nougat for the Note 5. This is what sucks with Samsung, always late with the updates especially for the dual-sim models.

My Note 4 hasn't even received Marshmallow.

Question for LG owners: are they diligent with releasing OS/security updates for their phones?

S7e owners, what screen protector do you have on? I want a tempered glass one but was told it would have to be held by stickers.

i have the plastic protector, although short, its not covering the curved "edge". tried the tempered glass but difficult to press the letters at the edge of the screen during texting, throw it away...

I didn't realize screen protectors for these things could be an issue. Do you have the brand bro? Where'd you get it? Looks like I will also have to go plastic as my Spigen case won't allow enough clearance for a tempered glass one.

This one's nice but I don't know if available locally:

Havent used screen protectors for 3 years now. Sayang ganda ng screen if it's ruined by a crappy piece of glass.

I havent seen any conclusive evidence that screen protectors are harder than the Gorilla Glass on my phones. In the instances that the screen protector breaks, it's usually not strong enough to have broken the phone's LCD if it wasn't protected.

its generic bro, dont know the brand. i think any mobile phone accessories shop have them. i will have it replace soon with the right size that can cover the curved edge

Tempered glass or none for me. Iba ang feeling ng touch pag plastic screen protector. Ang pangit ng touch

Even the better ones do dull out the screen a bit. But to me a layer of protection wouldn't hurt. Specially for the s7e as no case will protect the edge parts. Even if the protection is mostly psychological 😁

Thanks bro. Will probably go with a generic one before I get the Armorsuit.

Same reasoning from my mom, sister, girlfriend, and brother. Until they saw how much more vibrant my phone was compared to theirs (almost all of us have the same phones). I told them to try it out just for a week without the tempered glass - if their screen develops hairline scratches, then they can buy again. So far none of them have bought tempered glass anymore.

I'm using Moxbii Metearmor, kasing nipis lang ng plastic film protector pero nagcrack kapag finold mo. Absorbs impact pero nag sscratch pa din like ordinary tempered glass, check niyo vids sa YT 🙂

Xperia XZ Premium still has QC 3.0, it's the first phone announced to be equipped with SD835, mukhang di pa ready and QC 4.0, di rin ako masyadong fan ng QC ng Qualcomm kasi ang lakas mag init vs other quick charging solutions.

bought an f1s upgrade. I like that oppo doesn't have any bloatware. Very basic Android app Lang ang installed kahit facebook or messenger ikaw pa mag install.
