[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] cpufrost:
The top speaker doesn't have as wide of a frequency response (in the lower frequencies) so it will appear to be playing lower. I'm sure it's getting a higher amplitude signal already as engineered due to the physical limits but there may be a way to wing the balance so it's even more biased. I wouldn't worry too much about it especially if calls sound OK now.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] Limeybastard:
Not sure about the top speaker ,but the back of the device certainly vibrates when speakers are turned up.

They don't directly ship it to you they send you the money for the case via PayPal and have you order it from Amazon. I got picked last week and got mine over the weekend. So far I'm very pleased. It's not overly bulky and it allows for samsung pay.

[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Trina9:
Got mine yesterday and so far I'm impressed. Good protection for the edges which always is a concern of mine. Edge widgets will require a bit of adjustment to work.

Only complaint is if you are going after the Defender or Unicorn Beetle Pro is you need a belt clip.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] csimms:
just got mine really happy with it have already dropped my phone and case protected it perfectly can notice i dropped it! the kickstand comes in very handy also!!
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] primus123:
Got approved for my case today, they paid me the 18.99 via paypal before i bought the case. i paid the extra $2 because i wanted a color one.

Said to just leave review on Amazon, and XDA.

So case will be here tomorrow. I will use it through the weekend and have a review ready on Monday.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] nugzo:
Eff these people. They want me to buy the case FIRST off of Amazon. Not what the thread says. Here is their email to me.

If you agree to make a review at XDA with photos and link to my amazon page,

then you are in!

A lots of people said yet, but does not want to fulfill the words

make sure you can do it, before we start it

Also, so many people just took my money, without buying it. the ignored my email

So here is why I am going to do, you need to go to amazon purchase it first, send me the order-id, then i will send the money via paypal within 24 business hours.

Don't worry, your money is 100% safe, as If we dont give you the fund, you can return it back to Amazon, and give us 1 star review.

No seller will take money over reviews.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] mistermidas:
I just got the same email, and bought the case...not that big of a deal especially when you'll get a refund for it later. Plus I used the 40% off code and only paid $13 for the blue case. Not that big a deal for a "free" case, IMO.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] king3opobn:
They sent me the PayPal funds. I'm receiving it tomorrow, I hope it's good cause I'm going to be honest as sh** after i use it for a week.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] SuperLeakTX:

[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] nugzo:
He contacted me and sent me the money through paypal. I guess i can understand where he's coming from. A lot of people got the money and didn't order the case. I got the case today. I'll try it out and leave reviews after i've had a chance to make up my mind. I do think he's going a little overboard asking for multiple reviews and posts with pictures AND videos on Amazon, Facebook, Instagram etc. That;s a lot of work for a case you weren't really looking at to start with. I'll leave reviews and a pic or two but i doubt i'll leave videos unless it blows my mind..
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] mistermidas:
I went ahead and paid for the case through Amazon, and was reimbursed yesterday for it. I got the blue case, and did agree with the seller to do a review, so I'll do one now with pros and cons and come back later to add photos maybe.

Pros-

1. Color/look -It looks exactly the same on the site as it does in your hand. It wasn't way darker or brighter than what was displayed on the photos.

2. Feel-The case itself feels good in your hands. And has grooves on the side which help you grip it better. I currently use a Youmaker case, and prefer the Otterbox defender, style cases like this which some people may consider bulky, but I call them protective.

3. Kickstand - the kickstand for any case I buy these days is an absolute must. I got an Otterbox case free with my phone at the Sprint store, but I still bought the Youmaker case later because it didn't have a kickstand.

Cons-

1. Side panels- Edge a little harder to get to using this case, because the sides of the case are higher than most. So for some people that might be a problem. Since I only sparingly use the edge panels anyway, I actually considered it to be a benefit because it kept me from accidentally hitting the panels when swiping.

2. The kickstand- The kickstand itself is great, but at the same time it looks like it could break fairly easily if you're a heavy handed person or clumsy. With as much as I use my kickstand now, I'd honestly be surprised if it lasted 3 months without breaking.

Really, that's pretty much it. Overall I'd give the case 4.5/5. Basically because of that kickstand more than anything. I do prefer my Youmaker case more, but the ArmadilloTek Vanguard cases are definitely a great Otterbox alternative for a fraction of the price.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] jsirgey:
I went ahead and paid for the case and never got another message from them, buyer beware. I'll be returning to amazon and be sure to leave a review on amazon.

EDIT: After posting this and replying to the email that came from Amazon, I got a message from TAO that he missed my email reply and the money is on the way. I'll go ahead and open the package once I see it and then post a review.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] wolfgrrl:
Thanks for this! Ordered the orange :)
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] LibertyMonger:
No pics? That was part of the deal. The kickstand will not break fairly easy. And I'm sure there is a warranty.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] mistermidas:
I agreed to do a review, not everything else including tweets, pics, reviews on multiple sites, etc. So I did what I agreed to, nothing more and nothing less.

As for the kickstand, there are actually Amazon reviews saying the same thing. Not even saying it's cheap, only that it could POSSIBLY break fairly easily. Anyway overall as I said I like the case. It's well made, just not perfect.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] LibertyMonger:
I had no problem with this. Worked just as they promised. You think they giving you money first is in their best interest??? LMAO. Like they said, they tried that and people just kept their money. Weasels.

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ayaza:
well as the title says i'm really curious that is it worth buying the note 5 in mid 2019 since i was in the market to buy a phone i can find s7 and note 5 to be in the same price tag and both are in good condition and (used phones both of em) i got confused which i should buy s7 or note 5 and my bet was on the note 5 until i saw both prices and i would like to hear your guys opinion that which one should i buy. ( i wanted s-pen features coming from note 3 ) :)
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guyinlaca:
The Note 5 was a great phone. The only reason I traded it in was the amazing Note 8 promotion. I found it to be every bit as fast as the S7 and the larger flat screen is much better.

The only considerations I would make:

-The Note 5 stopped getting updates at 7.0 Nougat whereas the S7 got 8.0 Oreo.

-The Note 5 does not have Always on Display and would require a third party app for this feature where it's built into the S7

-The S7 has water resistance, the Note 5 does not.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ayaza:
what about xda support well i was gonna buy note 8 but since it's still have 1000$ tag in my country rip :x so i thought note 5 would be a good choice but s7 was available to and have you rooted your note 5 with any Samsung experience rom along with Gcam ? The S7 has water resistance, about this i think i should be cautious since im buying a refurbished phone
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Faisal0000:
the note 5 is still a pretty solid phone and if you install a good rom you can get aod and other features too, but the development is pretty much dead, so I'd go for the s7 edge. It has a better low light camera and the xda support is comparatively better too. Also not to mention expandable storage. Have both currently and if you dont need the s pen that much the s7 edge is a better choice.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ayaza:
Thanks for the reply mate but s7 edge price is bit out of my budget and i'm coming from a stylus phone so kinda need s-pen :D
[General Questions and Answers] stormy1777:
This is a mystery. BLU Energy Studio, phone worked just fine, then started to flicker and show funny colors then turn off, after few minutes/hours of REST, it would turn on for a few seconds, again, fully smeared colors, and shutoff. Attached is a video:

https://anonfile.com/Ice0Ifk1n5/VID_blu-lcd-flickers_mp4

Ordered an LCD + digitizer, and replaced BOTH as one unit, however, phone still behaves exactly the same as before..

What else could cause this behavior? This is lollipop/pretty latest revision, phone was very stable before this happened, I highly doubt it is the OS, it seems hardware related, but can't think of anything other than replacing of lcd+digitizer, which was done already :) crazy :)

Thanks for any tips.
