Review on πŸ’Ž Renewed Samsung Galaxy S8 64GB Coral Blue Fully Unlocked Phone by Boyan Vladov ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

All is well, liked the product, didn't buy it for nothing.

Despite the problems that have been highlighted, I am pleased with the phone (3-5 points are not very important to me because I keep the phone in a clear case, I don't need to record a lot of movies, and I can do without a radio in some way). The phone cost me 46,990 yen when I purchased it at the beginning of March. Has some pros: Regarding the benefits: 1) Design, the phone is very comfortable to hold in the hand due to the frameless screen, and it is thin to the touch when there is no case on it. 2) The display has vivid colors that are saturated to a high degree; fans of IPS screens might claim that the colors are too "acid," but I think everything looks great, 3) The primary and secondary cameras are among the top ones available on the market for smartphones. 4) the availability of a 3.5 mm headphone port, the possibility of installing two SIM cards, and memory cards (even though the device's built-in storage of 64 GB is more than plenty for me). 5) A plethora of features within the device's configuration options, including "medium" and "maximum" battery saving modes, a wide variety of screen color ranges, a fingerprint, face, and iris scanner, a mode for one-handed use, and many more options. With these drawbacks: Let's move on to the negative aspects. 1) The battery charge is hardly enough to last a whole day; with active use, it lasts for roughly 7-8 hours (Internet, listening to music, watching movies), with an average of 12-13 - but this is with power saving switched off. 2) The battery charge is barely enough to last an entire day. 2) The built-in separate on is incredibly frustrating for the "istant" Bixby in 2022, which cannot be rearranged or turned off; the fact of the matter is that this on (which is located on the left side under the volume swing) is constantly accidentally pressed, and the "istant" Bixby that I have no use for comes out. This is a problem because the "istant" Bixby cannot be rearranged or turned off. 3) If you want to carry your phone without a case, then you will most likely run into all three of these issues at the same time: a) the phone will be very slippery in your hands; b) the rear gl panel will blur even more than the display; c) the fingerprint scanner will be tough to (not only will it be awkward for some people to reach it, but it will also be challenging to) use. a) the rear gl panel will blur even more than the display. 4) The greatest length of a video that can be recorded in 4K is five minutes, although I have not yet had the need to record for that long. Slow motion can only be achieved in the HD format. 5) I have no idea if this is a deal breaker for anyone else, but for me, the absence of a built-in FM radio is a significant drawback.
