Question Why are there slight indents on S21 FE's sides? - Samsung Galaxy S21 FE

What are these slight indents supposed to be?

Antennas I believe. 5G if I remember correctly.

What about these lines?

Part of the antenna.

It's an aluminum frame at least. Plastic back though. Apparently the S21 also has a plastic back - didn't know that, but aluminum around the cameras (and slightly better cameras). I picked one up at MetroPCS for $99 which seemed like an insanely good deal.

On my S21 FE Snapdragon the frame is perfectly smooth with no indents.

GSIII Screen Protector

http://androidcommunity.com/galaxy-...-by-korean-screen-protector-company-20120501/
Seems to fit perfectly with what SamMobile is claiming to be the GSIII.
http://www.sammobile.com/2012/05/01/this-is-the-galaxy-siii/
I am so ready for the 3rd!
It seems likely that Samsung is going to launch 2 devices on the 3rd: GSIII with the physical butttons and shaped like GNex (which this screen protector basically confirms), and the i9800 which is the device leaked without physical buttons.

The bottom cutout makes it look like there will be a physical button. :O! Yet it seems to be placed way too far down.
What do you think?
Sorry if this is a double post. Looked around for ten minutes and couldn't find anyone talking about it.

Samsung confirmed the presence of a home button a few weeks back, plus the leaked pics of the S3 already confirm the shape and placement of the home button.

The i9300 doesn't appear to be the S3, as confirmed by the low screen resolution here. I would say the original prediction of Galaxy M i9300 is correct, with the S3 being i9500 and the third device being the N8000 Note 10.1. i9800 seems to have disappeared completely from the equation, replaced by N8000.

Rdf's aren't very reliable. I feel they are just copy and pasted from past models.
Fair call, it would be easy enough to manipulate as well before posting to a blog.

Hmm...

could be for? I mean, what could be at that position?
To me it looked like a hole for a stylus at first

Smooth rounded edges around the perimeter like this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2797094
Rounded Borders: The edges are tapered to be chip resistant and more durable. See this one (for Note 3) http://www.spigen.com/brands/samsun...te-3-glas-tr-slim-premium-tempered-glass.html
Round edges will feel smoother to the touch.

I'm sorry, but they look exactly alike from what I can tell (at least as far as you can see on Amazon).
And in all the screen protectors I ever saw - they just go along with the devices' shape, that's why I don't understand the question "does it have round edges?" - if the phone has round edges, so will the screen protectors (again, at least in all the screen protectors for every phone I ever saw).
Also, relax.

To get back to the original topic, did you buy the Nacodex and, if so, how is it in terms of quality and your user experience? I've seen zilch on XDA and the OnePlus One forums about this particular screen protector.
And by the way: This is why the second poster asked whether the protector had rounded edges:
People have received a square-edged SP from Nillkin that was marketed for the OPO but didn't fit.

I think what he's asking is whether the edges/sides are rounded off vs. being a sharp, square cut. It sounds like the misunderstanding is which part of the screen protector we're talking about. I took it as the edges/sides, but it sounds like you're thinking corners?

Meh. I say just get a band that you like and put it on. Maybe we should get people to post pictures of their M360 with their aftermarket metal band along with a purchase link and any special information so people could get one if they like it? But only bands that are actually confirmed as compatible and being used by the poster. Not to hijack or anything.

Yes, of that I am quite aware. Anyone who buys that ugly band...I deeply pity them - it looks like trash compared to their original (beautiful) render. They didn't even get the right dimensions when they created the connecting point. Have you seen the Engadget pics of it? It sticks out so far from the watch as if it's some cheap attachment.

The really interesting thing about that photo is it shows the official band doesn't just clip in, it has some sort of plastic adapter. The iFixit review thought that the outer steel casing was grounded to the internals. Motorola claimed metal bands can cause interference. If that's the case, maybe this plastic adapter is to ensure the metal band never touches the metal case, since the case may be the antenna?

This could very well be true or just a fabrication so that people only buy their metal band. Just look at all the bands everyone is trying/discussing and successfully using. Moto knew this might happen, but probably didn't expect it to this degree. So I guess, the only story for them to get any sales at all would be to say something like this plastic adapter only comes with and fits our metal band. So if you don't want interference, you can only buy our band, until some company makes a plastic piece themselves and charges 3-5 dollars for it. Then, their argument is completely shot, lol.

I like that stock metal band, it looks very nice. I think the reason it looks nicer than any aftermarket one is that it's oversized, you can see that the band is wider than the slot it fits into. I'd guess it's at least 24mm and also it doesn't taper.. It's such a huge watch it needs a very wide strap otherwise it looks cheesy.
I can see the attachment point looking odd if you have thin wrists, as the person in your pictures does. Then when it exits out it makes a sharp 90 degree turn down and looks like it doesn't belong, a curved adapter like many watchband have would have solved this. I'll bet it looks good with a thicker wrist though.
Here is a pic of the moto band unattached, I don't think its a plastic adapter at all. It looks like the attachment points are simply tapered down arms.
I got a relic band, it's stainless steel and I have had it on for about a day and no issues with any signal or anything

Hey guys,

@egren58 They've got a new version shipping Nov 7th. It is wider 1~1.5mm than the older one. Contact them through Amazon and let them know it's not satisfied and they will offer a refund or the newer wider version. They're correcting it and looks like they've got good customer support.

The company YooTech which is probably the same as Pleason, is sending their version 2 protector to me. They said that it is slightly wider. When I get it, I'll try to remember to post pics.
When I remove the protector that I have applied now, I'm going to lay a straight edge across the screen because I can't see any slight curve. This screen looks to be flat as a pancake. [emoji1]

When you do lay it across long ways at the bottom or top so you get 3 of the edges
There is a slight curvature but it's still a good amount of distance from the edge of the display. You can see the curve when you hold the device in an angle and put it in direct light the reflection will show the angle. But there is still space to go wider.
I have a dial indicator at my work. I'll use it to see exactly how much of a curve we are dealing with. Not that it matters, I just want to see.

It's very minimal. The o e plus 3 had more and they managed to get some decent tempered covered the display and a bit more
I've had one of these ordered about 3 weeks ago from Pleson through Amazon. Said they shipped it 10/18, but they 'forgot' to provide a tracking number and can't find one now, but are sure it shipped. They were good about offering a refund, though. Of course, the original picture they were marketing it with - showing it with the Pixel XL - also showed the camera & speaker areas as cutouts, not whole sections cut to the edge, which was one reason I ordered theirs vs all the rest that look essentially identical.
I'm waiting on Intelliarmor's PRO glass - it's the only one that went essentially full edge-to-edge (less about 0.5mm) on my Nexus 6, which had similarly rounded edges.
