In general, everything is not bad, but I expected more.

In general, I like the device, mainly because of the camera. But, as it turned out, reliability is lame. A curved screen is not needed, but Samsung did not have models with the same characteristics and a normal screen.

As for the battery, they complain here, but it seemed to me that everything was fine with it, comparing with similar android devices, Samsung even works a little longer. I charge every 2 days, sometimes 3 if I haven't used much. An hour of active surfing on the Internet and a YouTuber in the subway - they put down a battery of about 10% percent. On the 8th android, by the way, it worked longer, judging by the statistics here, I think the reason is in Google services - they basically eat a lot. in the background. And one more thing - I have permanently turned on increased energy saving (but not the maximum), while everything works fine. Bluetooth, Gps, Wi-Fi - when they are not needed - I try to turn it off.

2 years have passed, in general, everything is as before, in the last half of the year strange battery discharges have appeared - i. E. the phone lies, is not used, except for Google services there are no other active applications, but the battery is still discharged (linearly) - left the phone for a couple of hours and a half of the charge, it is dead, you do not have a phone. Haven't been able to do anything with it yet.

Pros

+ The camera is fire, well, it’s very pleasing, it shoots, in my opinion, better than everything that was on sale that year from a similar one. Night shooting is especially pleasing (1.5 aperture is great) - in the photo I see more than with my own eyes. Fast focus, color reproduction, sharpness. I got it, pressed it - the picture was taken, no long adjustments, correction, focusing. + The screen is quite good, except for the curvature, the brightness and colors are impressive, it needs more settings in the software. + The work of gps, wi-fi, bluetooth, mobile networks - everything is great, I was especially interested in positioning (I often go to the forest, on lakes) - the device did not disappoint, it searches quickly and accurately. + Samsung software is generally normal. + Warranty service is excellent (see below for breakdowns).

Cons

- After 8 months of very careful use, for no reason at all, a strip in the touchscreen came up, in total - the taps began to "fail" in this part of the screen + at the moment you click on the dropped strip, it registers it as two taps. But in the guarantee they changed the entire screen + Akum in a day, there are no more problems with it. - Oddly enough, their main feature is a curved screen, very inconvenient and WHY ? On sites where there is infa on the sides, this is a direct problem - it is extremely difficult to poke where it is necessary, and watching movies / videos also becomes peculiar. Of course, I understood what I was going for, but I did not think that it would be so inconvenient. * bixby button - not needed, bxAction works so-so. BUT, in the latest ates, finally, praise to Cthulhu, they added the ability to reconfigure it regularly, so consider this not a minus.
