Revainrating 3 out of 5

There are some variations, but tolerable on the whole.

Paid 4.02 for it. on pre-order to succeed my previous Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus. Even after the release of the S8 Plus, I swore that I would never buy another Samsung smartphone. However, after conducting research on the market, I discovered that if we exclude Chinese brands (well, I don't like them), there are fewer options available. In summary, the phone is not terrible by any means; nevertheless, there are three significant buts: Autonomy - I got the phone's battery up to 100%, used it to surf the web on Chrome for half an hour, and it only had 84% of its power left. E. Charge dissipates right in before of your very eyes. It warms up - at the same time, in the previous use case, it also warmed up to the point where it was uncomfortable to hold in your hands, again, it is not apparent - it would appear that browsing the pages is not the most resource-intensive operation. Third But - all in the same chrome on the screen just behind the camera, when scrolling through the sites, such an unpleasant little horizontal purple strip remains, which can be referred to as "i." E. When this status bar is a single color and remains static, there are no issues; however, when the color of the bar changes dynamically, the issue may be seen. And it is not entirely clear what the issue is in the end - either in chrome, or in the phone (I forgot to mention the same chrome, I can't even eat it - there is always some kind of magical error). There is of course the possibility that there is a problem with this setup; I will look into it. The phone was used inside of a Samsung-branded silicone case, and it was also connected to a smart watch (a Galaxy Watch 3). There is still some lag in the connection while using the Tinkoff operator. Turning the air mode on and off is the only thing that helps. Two years have passed, and nothing has changed.

Pros
  • Design, speed
Cons
  • Even basic surfing is enough to make the autonomy heat up.
