The S10+ was just delivered to me. I got the 128GB S10+ in Prism Green - the G975F/DS (dual-sim) version from eBay(never-msrp). it seems to be a Latin American version (as the initial startup screen was in Spanish).
Unfortunately, I have to run for an extended meeting so will not get a chance to play with it till the evening. Let me know if you have any questions that I can answer.
I want that green! Looks good! Wish the US would have had it
huh? that quick?
It looks kinda blue (not green) to me. Congrats on your new toy
Notification light?

Congrats! Can you check Ram? Is it 8GB? - hope it is but 'FX' is a demo unit, here is a link to check all references.

This times a million. Notification LED ring around camera. If you can - try and install lightflow, see if it picks it up.
I just want to know if you can get google camera installed on it and if night sight works.
If this is the exynos version need your opinion about speed and lag and stutters etc.. specially compared to something like iphones and one plus devices

there were early reports of this phone only having 6GB since a bunch of "demo" devices were showing that. Samsung confirmed they do in fact have 8GB.

Demo units are stripped down to bare minimum to save money. Since they are just for a 'tease' they don't have to be fully functional to every detail.

According to pre-release sheets they made some other builds. I got confused too, I wanted 8GB/128 S10 at first, but it looked like only the 512 S10 has it and I even preordered that. Then they corrected that, saying all S10/10+ have 8gb so I cancelled S10 and reordered S10+. That change cost me 2 weeks delay,my orig spot in waiting line was 3/8 now it's 3/22.
That's where the demo units must have been projected:

FX is not a demo unit. It’s just ‘X’. The demo unit is SM-G975X. At least it is here in Europe anyway as the single sim version.

Hi guys,
I'm planning to get the note 7. Just wondering if anyone can post an image of a brand new unit if you got one. Does it really have the letter S mark? Or the black mark? Thanks!
It has a bomb with an X over it

Mine was the canadian version. Has the black square.
Wow that's it? The black square? OK it is good to know, but those out there with malicious intent, selling defective units on the 'Black Market' can easily draw up a replica symbol on the label to pass off as new 'Safe' units.
You can check the imei on samsungs website

Unfortunately I haven't opened it or made any other observations. I sold the new one on Craigslist unopened. I wanted an exynos version so will wait to get my hands on one of those after after the dust settles from the recall.
What I did notice was that the label with the black square was on top of the original label.
So my assumption is that these units were old stock, but Samsung knew which units had the unaffected batteries and therefore just relabeled them with a new identifier(black square) to know good from bad.

Only this letter was included in the shipping box with the new phone box.
It just tells me to drop off old unit at a Samsung store. On back side of letter it just names all the locations that i can drop it off.
No mention of what happens if i don't or no mention of any deadlines to drop it off by. I originally bought my unit from Samsung.ca.
They probably have my credit card on file and would just Bill me if they didn't receive my recalled unit

Hi guys, I'm about to receive my starwars edition tomorrow.
I'm surprised to see no threads related to it.
I'm just wondering if the development of StarWars edition and 64gb version is going to be same.
Can I just start meddling with it straight away, with the roms available for 64gb version?
Or do I've to wait.
I personally don't like the design of OP5T but still bought it because of development love it gets.
(I'm more of a Xperia guy)
I'm gonna return the mobile without even opening unboxing and will get the regular op5t, if the development is poor for this model
Thanks in advance for the response.
I don't think that change anything. If I'm correct, that's the exact same phone and same rom.
You can even unlock the StarWars "bonuses" on the normal 5T.
It's the exact same phone in a different case.
But the Ram is 8 GB.
Will that make any difference?

It will be treated just the same as all the others. The only thing special about it is the col,or option which was done just to make a little more money from countries where they know it would be bought.

Bought this color just bcoz it is masking those hideous iphonish antenna bands.
Apart from that all i know about starwars is that its a movie. xD
The best thing about this variant is that it has the sandstone finish instead of smooth back. I with the black model had this.

Bought it from Thailand. It is officially available in many countries in South East Asia. Here it is sold together with MPen.
The only model available here is 128/6 GB. Google assistant works well.
I still havent play much with it so I could not really tell all pros and cons. One thing I notice right away was that the display is grainy, though higher ppi than iPhone Xr but its noticeably grainy I would say. Coming from LG G7, I do hate Huawei Emui launcher.

Yes it is. Earlier I talked to many people about this and many say its ok. I just tried to say that it looks worse in comparison to iPhone Xr but its your eyes to decide if its ok or not. People coming from WQHD might notice this more I guess.

It is a more feminine lilac in my opinion. Even the fingerprint reader is a very light purple. I sold my Chinese silver and bought the international model which only comes in midnight blue from Splendor for $868 USD.

According to another member, no the camera stuff has not been implemented yet.
I installed it a little while ago. No new camera stuff, but on June patch now.
The new update for the exynos is a major one for the camera and also the kernel ... no more jitters and frame drops way faster and smoother now
hm did they release asf3 and asf7 simultaneously?

Did you look at the pic in the OP? Yes it's S10+. Its on Samsung.firmware.science as an upgrade.
ah thank you. but its SM-G975U, i am on SM-G975F.
Lets see if there will be an update for this, too.
As far as I can tell ASF7 does not address the battery drain at all. It's just a security update and a new bootloader.
Note ASF7 is for the U.S. SD variant.
ASF7 kernel version is .78
ASF3 kernel version is .85

I'd say deffo worth it. Just looked on Mi store but couldn't see it for this price - £329 only. But yeah, if you can get one new for £250 it's for sure worth it. A while ago I paid £200 for a used one on ebay with a scratch on the screen, that was when they were selling for £300+ for a new one, so your £250 is great. Much, much faster and better built than the Alldocube iPlay 40 it replaced - even though this had more ram, the ram as a guess was slower. This Mi Pad is snappy. Let me/us know if you have any more questions

Fair do, think that's what I bought my dad for birthday. Yeah, it's not too shabby either. Couple of extra GB ram in the Mi pad though, unless you have the 128GB version - think that's got 6GB too. Hope you like it, not bad after selling the Lenovo, getting the Pad 5 for about £100 - niice!
You gonna flash another rom or leave it stock for a while? Running AwakenOS on mine, I'm told it's the best rom for now, even though it's an initial build iirc

Hmm, I'm no expert but I would recommend updating to last MIUI 13 before the upgrade to 14, just to be safe. In theory, though, it shouldn't matter, as you'll be flashing the full rom so it should go through fine
