    I didn't realise it had aluminum in it, I was blinded by the iridescence!

    Haven't bought a phone direct from a carrier in a while. Is the 3 version going to come with a nasty 3 logo on the bootup and bloatware?

    Am I as well to spend €70 extra and buy direct from Samsung?

    I'd go the extra 70. You'll also have the dual sim option.

    Cheers. Sold. Thought they were all dual SIM but didn't really look into it

    I doubt any of the carriers will allow another carriers sim into their phone so I'd say they'll nobble it. I could be wrong though.

    That sucks. Why didn't you order from Samsung or a network provider directly? Never heard of Exertis. You should ring them up and ask what's going on as something is wrong there.

    I'm sure though that Network Providers have plenty of stock to be released tomorrow.

    Maybe so but Exertis are Samsung direct. Everyone that preordered from Samsung on this thread ordered from Exertis.

    I got the Spigen Ultra Hybrid Crystal for S10+

    Looks good, do you have a link for the S10 or any ideas where I can buy this case for the S10?

    24th Feb.

    FWIW......3 lads I know had ordered ceramic models (and myself) from Samsung Ireland direct.
    Only one has had a shipment (a white 512GB).....no movement on blacks (2 512GBs and 1TB).
    Poor form, but it is what it is I suppose.

    That’s ridiculous. With that much time they surely could have gotten stock for your order.

    Spigen Ultra Hybrid with Clear Hybrid Drop Protection Designed for Galaxy S10 Case Cover (2019) - Crystal Clear https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07MCVW9Q1/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_myvGCbYZW6WTX

    There is also an "S" model with a kickstand but I prefer the cleaner look

    I was surprised when my S8+ wouldn't fit in it!

    Poor form doesn’t even come close. They have charged me for a product weeks before they shipped it (which they shouldn’t be doing anyway) and now doesn’t look like it’ll it’s making the promised delivery date no zero word from them!

    There’ll be words tomorrow lol

    I never bothered with them. Have my s8+ 2 years and its like the day it came out of the box. If it isn't in my hand its in my pocket so its spotless.

    Gonna try the one that's pre-applied. Supposedly retails for e30 separately so has to be some way decent.

    MKHB review is up (maybe it was posted already?). Very positive but he does say normal glass protectors don't work.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 26,611 ✭✭✭✭OldMrBrennan83


    That one Brownlee did the video of him applying yesterday looks like some faff but the fingerprint scanner worked by the end of it (even though they made a balls of putting it on).

    Can't remember the brand (probably mentioned in review) but it's apparently the only one that works with the fingerprint as they've patented it. There's a UV light thing for curing it that comes with it.

    If they hadn't messed up the adhesive by tilting the applicator frame too much then it looks like it'd be the job. His mostly worked without re-registering the fingerprint but you're supposedly meant to register again and it works bang on. Looked good.

    Three seem to have a lot of stock around. Myself and 2 others I know who ordered today are getting them delivered tomorrow. Tracking live now as well.
