    Pre-applied screen protector marked in middle already from earphones in pocket with phone. Might end up trying white stone dome after all...

    Did anyone get an email to confirm claim for buds, not sure if it worked

    I got an email today saying they are reviewing my claim and they'll get back to me in under seven days time. I had filled out the form yesterday evening via the website and not through the Samsung Members App.

    Claim can be tracked here, just need the claim ID and email address:

    https://20191.samsungpromotions.claims/ie/en/pages/galaxybuds/track-my-claim

    By the way, I received an email and a text from Samsung as confirmation for the claim.

    Just a couple of observations after 24 hrs with an S10.
    The screen is a bit cartoony but still messing about with it to get the right setting.It doesn't seem as sharp as my S8
    I really miss the LED notification light.I didn't realise that it would be gone even though the screen has moved up.It was also very handy to notify me when it was charging and fully charged.
    The battery life is incredible compared to my S8

    Haven't gotten an email or text. Does it take a while?

    Is anyone putting on a different screen protector?

    Any one go through cpw to pre order and hear from them.

    Pre ordered in Swords branch for an s10 with Vodafone.

    Friday came and no word so tried calling but their phone went straight to voicemail that the system says was full.

    Website has a big banner saying to wait for you shop to call you.

    I m assuming right now they have to wait on stock from the providers but just wonder what others have heard?

    Away at the moment so cant make the shop till next week.

    It's worrying that Vodafone are showing no stock of any S10 model on their website the minute the pre-order offer finished.

    With all the problems reported about their pre-ordering system (myself included), I wouldn't be surprised if there's not a delay with the orders made at their stores as well. Hope I'm wrong

    I had tried using their online system to upgrade but couldnt complete the process.
    Dropped into the store in Tallaght during the week and placed pre order there.
    Called into the store yesterday at lunch time and they hadn't received any delivery of stock.
    Called in again @ 6pm and they said they weren't getting any stock in, would be mid to late next week at the earliest - claimed they had got notification from Samsung that there were shortages.

    Went around to Carphone warehouse and enquired had they any S10+ available, they initially said yes but when I said it was a vodafone upgrade they said they had none for Vodafone.

    Received a call from the original Vodafone store 30 minutes later that they had finally received stock and phoe was available for collection - make of that what you will.

    As always with vodafone, great network but customer service has gone diabolical and left hand doesnt know what the right hand is doing(its gone downhill rapidly since the upgrade of their systems in the last year).

    Has anyone noticed that the 1st camera on the back of the s10+ does nothing?

    Was playing around with the cameras and I covered the 1st one with my finger and scrolled through the wide-angle, normal and telescopic one, and none of them were obscured by my finger...

    This is the camera I am talking about.

    Tried this and my finger blocked it.

    Edit: retried and its the same. The finger doesn't block it. I tried all modes and video too. What's going on there?

    Is the telephoto not only for when you zoom in a certain distance?

    Tried that. Went full x10 zoom. Tried pro mode too. Very confused.

    That is strange. Unless the camera knows it's been blocked and is defaulting to the other lens?

    Just tried blocking the other 2 lenses and switching to telezoom. At first it showed my finger blocking it but waving the phone around a little got it to switch to the third lens. The mystery lens :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,266 ✭✭✭Keith186


    Think I saw this mentioned somewhere else. It only does 30fps but if camera settings are set to 60fps it cant activate that lense.

    I don't understand that. Are you saying that's a video only lens?

    I just read the lense doesn't work for 60 fps but then you would expect it to effect video only, not photos, so not sure what's going on with your phones. Don't have the phone myself.

    You are correct, I was messing around some more. if you zoom in it will use the telephoto camera, but if it gets blocked it will switch to the normal camera straight away.

    The buds aren't actually released at all yet are they? Eglobal are showing as stock instead of preorder but Samsung don't even look to have stock at the minute.
