Thanks for the info.  That's good to know.  I've ordered Audioquest's own OTG cable called the Dragontail, although it's not very clear from the images on Amazon or their own website whether it has a micro-USB or a USB-C connector.  I will find out when it arrives tomorrow but hopefully if it's micro-USB it will still work with an adapter. Either that or I will have to return it and find an alternative. ... View more

I wouldn't bother contacting Samsung. You'll get an anodyne boilerplate reply. I suspect we'll also be required (or at least be easiest) for each person to submit their own claim as pursuing class action probably more difficult. I ended up not pursuing as the hassle to chase whatever I paid didn't seem worth it in the end. That I said I feel strongly about corporate injustice so might just be bloody minded enough to pursue. The irony is Samsung Pay lost now and miles away from Google Pay ... View more

We recently purchased a UE55NU tv and having the same issue. We watch tv in a dark room all the time and all dark scenes in any HDR content has changing/flickering brightness. So annoying we avoid HDR content and go for Full HD insteaf. Wish there was Full HD tvs to buy still at 55” but had to go UHD. The tech on samsung just doesnt seem ready for it. Turning off subtitles helps a little but with them on its crazy. Everytime a sub i displayed, the brightness jump up drastically to then just drop as soon as text dissapears. The theory it being the sensor reacring to the light in the room makes sense. As an example, found The Ranch Part5 on Netflix that is HDR content with many dark scenes. Utterly unbarable to watch on the TV. So was The Ozark on Nerflix in HDR. Please fix the software and providenan update ASAP. ... View more

@BandOfBrothers I managed to lose the S pen for my Note 3 as it rolled down the front of my car's dashboard. It's still there lurking somewhere behind my speedo. Fortunately I was able to use the S pen for my Note 2. When I get my Note 9, delivered but I'm abroad on holiday, I will be thinking about that hidden Note 3 S pen, now my 3rd S pen... ... View more

@Riyaz wrote: I've purchased the S9+ and received it on Friday (09/10/2018) as I've pre-ordered. I've noticed that HDR videos that I have on either the Micro SD card or copied to internal storage DO NOT playback the videos in HDR via the native video player. I have the S8 too and it is able to do so.    Obviously 3rd party apps like Youtube may need to release an update before HDR works there so that's understandable, but for the S9+ not to have this out of the box for the native video player is disappointing.   These clips are short 30 seconds recording on the Xbox One X and are full 4K HDR (Tomb Raider, Horizon 3 or Destinty 2 clips), and they play as they should on the S8 with 'HDR' showing when playing. However, on the S9+ it shows 'HDR' in bold near the title when the video plays, without the actual HDR enabled. I've contacted Samsung, they've taken my details, serial number and IMEI number. They said they'll get back to me this week. Just a heads up to everyone. I have the UK version, Exynos. Riyaz     [Edit: 27/03/2018 - I do have colour grading issues, I was watching a HDR video at 1440p by Digital Foundry on YouTube and I can definitely see a sort of grainy presentation of dark and black areas of the screen. Black Crush is definitely present.

They have escalated to their Product Support team as their Chat Team was unable to help and their other frontline support. They mentioned that they don't know when that team will get back to me as it's the first time anyone has raised it. I guess many people can't tell the difference and think HDR is working or it's actually working for them out of the box.]   Same for me mate! Give a shoit when have a solution please ! ... View more

The bottom lens is the telephoto lens.  If you keep your finger on it and press 2x, the cam detects low lights and simultaneously switches to the primary lens at 2x digital zoom. To test this..first press 2x..then cover the the bottom lens with your finger...you will see your finger on the screen for a split second before the camera switches to the primary lens. Make sure you do it in day light..because the camera tends to avoid prefers using primary lens in low light. ... View more

Hi guys. Just to update, our R&D team have confirmed that there are no current plans for a Force Touch Swipe feature on the UK Note9. Unsure whether that's also the case for non-UK Note9's though - so for those of you from overseas, I'd advise getting in touch with your local Samsung teams to enquire with them. ... View more

@SithLord wrote: Yeah but let's be honest here, more than a few times, the high capacity popular colour iPhones that were pre-ordered, never materialised for weeks.   Taking a look at some of the Networks and Apple's forums over the coming days I've always seen and expect to see people's posts detailing experiences who have had their orders delayed, cancelled or very little communication being offered.  It's been the same situation with every iPhone launch.    I've not seen that very often with Samsung flagship launches as far as I can recall.    That said communication is key and as such as long as a customer is kept in the loop they are more compromising.    I pre ordered the Black Note 512Gb very late on the 23rd from my local bricks and mortar Samsung Experience Store and picked it up the very next day i.e launch day.    I can't speak for online orders but the High street Samsung Experience Store had quite a few units for sale.          ...

Hi, @TheTampra. As previous users have said it looks like a third party app. To figure out what app it could be try this. After the problem has recently occurred, open the Google Play Store, then go to: Menu (the three lines on the top left corner) > My apps & games > Installed. The Installed apps will show in alphabetical order by default. Tap the lines next to 'Alphabetical' to change the sort order to 'Last Used.' The app causing the overlay will be high up on the Last Used list. ... View more
