My goodness, look how complicated and detailed these phones are. We are overdeveloped in Technology. I've just realised why. It's to stop us from talking and communicating with each other.....

nonyhaha, 31 Jul 2018VERY VERY VERY poor quality after about 6 months of usage. every 2 or 3 days I get a "no sim" ... moreUsing this phone since 2016, dropped it regularly (couple of times each month, twice yesterday) nothing is broken, everything works as good as new.
Try asking for a new sim card from our service provider, because it may not be fitted well enough.
If the problem persists, and you still have warranty on it, send it back for repairs. The pins that are reading the sim card may not be in contact with it due to some errors in the manufacturing process.
These things happen, that's why warranty exists.

I am not facing any of the issues that you are stating. I am using the phone since October 2016, & I can say the experience is pretty nice. Its looks are awesome, still fast & fluid, camera quality is decent & fingerprint reader works good as well. Your phone may require a factory reset or you can claim a new handset under warranty. I am still loving my phone & not thinking to change it anytime soon.

VERY VERY VERY poor quality after about 6 months of usage. every 2 or 3 days I get a "no sim" error, with the Sim wiped EVERY time I get this. The phone sits in a case and I NEVER dropped. Fingerprint scanner is the worst I have EVER seen! I tried adding more fingerprints of the same finger but is simply will not work, maybe one in 20 it will unlock the first try!

Anrhmii, 19 Jun 2018Yeah me too. I've tried to fix it to samsung service center last year, and now it happens agai... moreThat's generally caused after several software updates, the device gets confused whether to use CPU or GPU to for screen rendering.
To solve your issue, unlock DEVELOPER OPTIONS by navigating to SETTINGS, About Device, find and click on BUILD NUMBER several times until DEVELOPER OPTIONS gets unlocked. Afterwards you'll be able to see this DEVELOPER OPTIONS at the bottom once you open the SETTINGS.
Now, open DEVELOPER OPTIONS, find and enable DISABLE HARDWARE OVERLAYS, which will force the device to use GPU for screen rendering. Your problem solved.

the worst phone ever (in the world).
its not easy to open the phone. service centers always demands a hefty price just to open the device.
