Has anyone been able to figure out the volume on phone calls? I keep clicking down on the volume, but I'm pretty sure my next door neighbor can still hear the person I'm talking to.
Must be a bug cus I had something like that. Kept pressing volume down and it only goes down to like 1/3 which is still too loud. The person had me on speaker though if that had anything to do with it.
Other than that like the other replies absolutely loving the phone. The display is so amazing. One of the many reviews I read mentioned it having like an insane level of RGB coverage way better than the s10 for example. Maybe that's why it looks soooo good.
It's weird but I kind of want my phone to be able to do as many things that my desktop PC can, as possible. To that end, the 12GB of RAM, and SD 855, and ginormous screen, are great. I definitely feel it's much more a desktop replacement than my previous S8+.
It's great having Amazon Prime for things like cases, since you dont have to pay like 10 shipping on a $10 case. So far I got some generic kickstand case for 8 bucks which seems pretty decent and to provide better protection than the included gel case, and also just in general I tend to like kickstand cases. I'll probably pick up the Spigen case when it comes out since everybody here seems to like Spigen and it's like ten bucks.
Ok having said that I'm gonna engage OCD mode, the ONE thing that bugs me a little is on jerryrigs everything video teardown, he mentioned one standoff being made out of a "brittle alloy" and he knew that because he said he shattered it to pieces at the one plus 7 live even teardown he apparently did. Then of course he quickly moved on to the next thing in the video. So that kind of bugged me like oh, did they skimp on the screws? LOL. But really I have no idea if the standoff is unusually low quality vs other phones (Samsung may have the same), or if it matters even if it was. But I was thinking, if you dropped your phone and internal standoff shattered, that wouldn't be good...
But that's just being OCD and 99.99999999% it'll never matter, if it ever could. I aint worried about it.
oh and also jerry confirmed every opening has a gasket. So that doesn't exactly confirm an IP rating but, certainly seems positive.
