TCool, 15 Oct 2017Be consistent. Stop giving false information. No heat whatsoever when using wireless charging.Even Samsung's official manual of the Note8 says we should expect it to get hot while fast charging or wireless charging.

Stop giving false information.
No heat whatsoever when using wireless charging.My experience is different. Tried wireless charging including note 8, it heats a bit compare to when I charge with wire. It is not a flaw in phone and is something to do with technology i believe.
Off topic:
Saw many opinions about iOS and Android.
Here is mine - please dont complain I am Apple fan or Android fan. I always keep two mobiles for years (one Apple and other Android - mostly samsung, htc).
All of us agree iOS performs faster with smaller RAM compare to Android. However for the price paid by us Android manufacturers are providing doubleor more of the RAM to cope up with Android OS. So no big deal of it.
Over the years I see iOS reliability reducing and Android reliability increasing.
It is not right to compare Android eco system with iO. At a time, there will be more than 1000 models of Android devices compare to 6+ iOS devices. People complain no proper updates to many devices compare to Apple devices. Android ecosystem is complex with Qualcomm, Exynos, Mediatek, Kirin, Intel etc.. processors and a dozen manufacturers. Many manufacturers avoid updating devices because of complex eco system. What this complex eco system provided us????
Many benefits:
- I wanted highest resolution of selfie camera which is possible with Vivo and Oppo devices because of Android openness
- I wanted the best possible battery in mobile which is possible with Xiaomi mi max 2 and lenovo with larg3 battery etc...
- I wanted to take notes on mobile which is possible with galaxy note devices
- I wanted my phone look like iOS but with lesser price which is possible with miezu, oppo, mi devices etc...
- I wanted a dual sim mobile
- I wanted best processor with affordable price which is possible with Oneplus, Xiaomi
Many devices are built with different funtionality in mind with affordable price is only possible with such complex Android eco system.
With a simpler eco system Apple provides regular updates and make the OS more reliable as it releases one set of processors every year. Due to its closed ness nature, we as consumers loosing benefits as described above.
I see value in both each have its own complexity, problems and benefits.
A manufacturer not providing updates is not an issue with Android OS as such.

The.Neighbor, 15 Oct 2017Yes, you keep using fast charging, and keep using the face recognition unlock. I'm not stopping you.one of my friend has the s7 edge, its already a 1year-old phone. the fast charging? that is one of the best feature that Samsung can provide, I don't think its the fast charging that makes your phone stressed, its when you are using the phone while its charging, based on the researched held by different organizations, a phone will not last long if you keep on using it while its charging or if you'll charged it once it reached 5% battery level. you can compare it to a scenario where in you are in a dessert with one bottled water. that bottled water has 3 holes at the bottom. if you keep on opening the lid and you just let the holes around the bottle,water wont last long. try to asses yourself on how you use it, well I don't care if you don't treat your phone well but what I care about is how you spread those negative things on the said phone. try to watch or read articles about handsets, Samsung always satisfies people on how the phone works.:)

I'm happy to report that there is a slight tilt input with the S Pen, however only for two apps I've used: Samsung Notes, and ArtRage.
You can see it better with the ArtRage drawing app's pencil function. Just too bad that ArtRage only offers 2048 x 2048 maximum resolution. I'll do an art piece to show this in the future.
The tilt is not that wide as I want it, and not as smooth as I have hoped. Nothing like what the real Wacom Pro or Apple Pencil can provide. Added bonus for artists.

I noticed that there is no more options to turn off fast charging! I wanted to use the black charger that came with, and I was looking for the setting to turning it off to avoid adding stress to the battery. My experience is it's there on my wife's S7 Edge that I turned off for her. I don't know if it's three same for the S8.
Sneaky, Samsung. Really sneaky. What this means is they're trying to ruin the battery faster just in time for next year's model. So, it's fast charging all the time unless you use a non-fast charging one. I've been using the Aukey multi-USB port charger at home (avoiding the fast charging port), and using a regular powerbank.
My friend fast charging his Note 4 every morning ruined the battery in 12 months. All he had to do was buy a new battery to replace. Here we have a sealed one in the Note8. Really sneaky.
