Question for T32, Daxian, and M88 owners...

Do your phones also have the dust behind the touch screen problem? or is it only M88s? within that, is it only my M88? lol
I had to tape up every hole on my phone and just use a bluetooth headset. The dust builds up pretty quickly if there are any open holes and you leave the phone in your pocket. I have opened it and cleaned it 3 times already now (experimented trying to figure out which hole lets dust in). There is a little foam seal around the screen but it just doesn't seem to do the job.
Even right now all taped up there are a few errant pieces of dust annoying the hell out of me. They are hard to notice with the screen on but they still annoy me... You can NEVER get all of them off of there when you take it apart and clean it but you have to try when it gets bad.

Same problem on my M88
I have similar case, how do you can open the front cover?
Thanks
Rodolfo

I have the same problem,
Can you post a video how to do the job cleaner please?

Anyone else scratch their screen too easily?

I got like three scratches on my screen yesterday and I have no idea why. I never ever have put it screen down. I am 100% sure nothing was in my pocket including any dirt OR sand. I guess there MAY be a very faint chance that my keys were in the same pocket for a second but I truly don't think so. I am extra anal about this thing, laughably so. I buff it, I take my pocket inside out and smack it around, I make sure the screen is facing out in my pocket. So I'm usually very conscious of which pocket my keys are in. I hate scratches and do everything in my power to prevent them.
All that said, anyone else in my boat? Got a scratch you can't explain? My whole point here is that if this is really Gorilla Glass, I shouldn't have any scratches let alone THREE! Certainly not from keys. I'm really bummed about this. The fact that I don't know why makes it worse LOL. I'm gonna see if ghost armor will hide it I guess.
So if anyone is listening, get a screen protector. I'm regretting not getting one big time

gorilla glass is very tough but not impervious. keys will still scratch it.
Sand is extremly hard and even 1 grain will make a mess.

You're probably just not looking close enough That's what I thought too, but I can see hariline scratches at a certain angle.

Sooo, if you can ONLY see them if you really look for them, what's the problem?

im looking at my screen right now there are no scratches at all my phone still looks the same when i bought it

Just noticed a very small scratch on mine tonight. I thought it was dust under the screen but you can definitely feel it when you run a finger nail across it. No idea how it got there. It's either in my hands or in a microfiber lined leather pouch. Time for a screen protector.

I've got a hairline scratch on mine that can only be seen under strong halogen lights or fluorescent lights, under normal lights or daylight it just isn't there, so maybe people have more scratches than they realise.
The annoying thing was, it scratched by my wiping the fingerprints off with a microfibre cloth. I was cleaning it under the halogen light so saw it happen. Must have been a speck of dirt or something on the cloth.
At least it doesn't show up 99% of the time so I'm not too bothered about it
So what's the best way of wiping off those fingerprints, if microfibre cloths can actually scratch it?

Let me quote my comment from the previous thread about gorrila glass screens...
"I just love how people on this board are so utterly misinformed. The problem is people believe it is indestructible. You can and will scratch your gorilla screen if you don't properly protect it. Anyone who believes otherwise deserves to have their **** scratched."
Harsh I know, but some people really do think gorilla glass can't be scratched.

Does the clear view case still scratch the screen?

With the S6 Edge, the clear view cover scratched many screen. Is this the same with the S6 edge+?

Not really
Hello there
I've been using Clear View cover for about a month or so, and so farl not getting any signs of scratching the screen, however the case itself suffered more than a few scratches which is a pretty good fail since this case isn't really cheap. So answer is no, I'll be watching to see if it does.
Cheers

Hi,
Using the clear view case for about a month now. Not a single scratch on the screen or the case.

Don't know about the clear case, but the s view cover is scratching the screen slightly. Had this issue with the official s view cover by samsung. Switched over to Rearth Fusion one.

No issues for me, have been using the S-View case for a few months now.

Does anyone know HOW it is scratching the screen? Is it a design flaw?

All I know is it put scratch all over the curve on my display, got the screen replaced free of charge now using a Spigen Case.

Not a scratch on my screen...had Clearview case since day 1

Did you ever play with a balloon as a kid, rub it real fast, back and forth a bunch of times against your shirt or the carpet and then held it up on top of your head? If you did you'd notice that your hair suddenly is attracted to that balloon, as if it's a magnet. It's because rubbing it against your shirt or the carpet created static electricity and now your balloon full of negative charge. If you run it against anything with a positive charge it'll attract it, like a magnet.
Same idea with the cover, except that the balloon is the cover. The materials it's made of after awhile of opening and closing it begins to create a field of static charge, similar to the balloon and it starts to attract dust, sand, dirt, the tiny little particles inside your pockets or purse. Now all that crap on there built itself up along the inside of the cover and since your phones in your pocket, as you're walking around, its shuffling inside your pocket there...
And guess what happens when there's debris stuck inside that cover as you're just going about your day...?
Give up....?
You get scratches on your screen!
A speck of sand is tiny, most don't even realise it's there, yet it can cause some damage on a screen.
Basically the materials Samsung used to make that cover is rubber like, which is prone to building up static, so an expensive screen, tiny dirt particles and static prone materials are not a good mix.
Ways to avoid this?
1. Wash your jeans more often
2. Always have a clean/dirt or particle free purse
3. Avoid using the cover unless Samsung remakes it with static free materials.
I wonder if throwing a dryer sheet in your pocket works to eliminate static build up?
Hmm... well, if anything your phone and anything else down there should smell fresh and clean.
The cover looks really cool but not cool enough for me to risk my screen.
I'd feel pretty stupid to spend $60, with the intention to protect my phone with something that actually increases the potential to damage it.
Heard Samsung is aware of this and replaced screens free because of it, so maybe they reformulated the materials in it? Can't imagine they'd continue selling it, knowing they'd have to fix every screen that bought the cover. The cost to replace a screen is likely more than profit for the case, I'd think...?

According to three local shops here in NL Samsung did a massive recall of the first series Clear View Covers and replaced them with a revised version that apparently solved the scratching.. The version I bought today definitely looks different from the first generation I had on my normal S6

Does the 1+6 have sharp corners?

So... Noticed the other day that each corner both on the bottom and top is really sharp. If I drag my fingers over it feels really rough. But on the middle top, sides and bottom its flat and smooth.
So the plastic frame between the metal and glass are uneven on the corners I thought.
So I sendt it in to repair since I thought this couldn't be right just to get the feedback it is normal...
So my question to other owners out there.
Are your corners sharp as well?

Could this be the screen protector that the phone comes with. Its applied very effectively so that you might not notice it.

Forgot to mention that. No. It's taken off ?
Every Google search I found said that

Mine has no sharps. But sharpness is in the eye of the beholder. Put a protective bumper case on it ! I found this to be a "must" because ( for me ) the stupid thing was always slipping out of my pocket.

I get that. I also got a case for it. But I am afraid dirt and debree gets in the easier because of it.

It could be a problem if your job exposes you and your phone to grit... I would still say 'install a protector' but then be on a regular schedule to pop it off and rinse it off. They pop off pretty easy, right ?

Nah. Actually prepared this phone with a nilkin back case and a full Adhesive screen protector. Plan to have this a long time. But it's a shame if mye phone is... "inferior" to everyone else's device

I know what you're talking about OP, and I noticed it the first day I had my op6.
Sharp probably isn't the word you're looking for to accurately describe the issue which is why most people are saying no. But there is a very rough transition between the frame and the glass. It is normal on the two op6 I have used

Appreciated for the confirm. It's a shame though

Each corner the plastic rim is slightly raised above the glass so that it might prevent direct impact to the fornt glass in case it falls.

I also noticed it the first day that I bought it and maybe it's just me but I feel the "sharpness" in every point of the border.
It was annoying to use the phone because the way I usually hold it my finger lays on the border and it hurt a bit, luckily with a case you don't feel it anymore.
Maybe reading these post about the problem made me think too much about it, because I just checked and it seems even a bit worse so now I don't know if I should contact OP or not

I've had my phone in the carbon case since day one, took the case off to clean it the other night and felt the "sharp" edges and wondered if I had either bent the frame or if the case had compressed the glass. I'm glad I'm not the only one to notice this, as I didn't notice it in the few minutes of having my phone naked at launch.

Question a lot of clothing lint on phone anyone else get that

Hello Everyone. Does anyone else in here get a lot of clothing lint on their phone screen, I have a clear acrylic case on my phone and I just seem to get so much clothing lint on my phone screen from my pants and it mostly accumulate at the top, it's like the lip of the case catches all of it, I have not seen that on my other phones before but there I did not have that type of case on, but can't say if it is case related at all, just an observation.

Pure cotton pocket liners do that. Polyester/cotton doesn't. I keep my Buds case and in part my 10+ in my bdu pants thigh pockets because of this.
Some cases have anti static properties too like the Zizo Bolt. They don't attract dust or dirt. Unfortunately they don't make any cases for Pixels I believe.
Otherwise the only thing that you can do is turn the pockets inside out when washing/drying. That may help a little.

Thanks mate, I will try that, I was just afraid that the lint might have been why there was dust in my selfie camera so I had to RMA the phone.

You're welcome. The phone is ip68, no dust should be able to get in. Bad seal or not assembled or serviced in clean room conditions.
Good call sending it in...
