Review on Renewed Samsung Galaxy S8+ Maple Gold 64GB Fully Unlocked by Nguyn Thanh Bnh ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

A completely ordinary product, nothing remarkable.

I purchased the phone after a lot of doubts and analysis of reviews. Because was previously a fan of HTC, Samsung was a dark horse for me with very conflicting opinions of the people around. I bought it anyway. I use as the main year. The phone as a whole is very cool. The camera and display still amaze me. For the first time in my life, I want to take a photo just enjoying the result. The form factor is ingenious, it sits very comfortably in large and small hands, the long screen is convenient for surfing the Internet. The feel and build quality are excellent. Autonomy - the battery is guaranteed to last all day with any degree of loading. The firmware is very stable, no glitches were noticed. The wife's iPhone looks like a poor relative lagging behind in all respects, perhaps except for the camera. The wife has already decided to also switch to Samsung after 10 minutes of feeling the S8 +. There are also disadvantages. The main one is Bixby, which is very rigidly imposed by the manufacturer, has a separate button under the volume swing, which sometimes terribly interferes with its existence, and at the same time terribly slows down the smartphone despite the most powerful hardware on board. In general, the firmware is convenient, not very fast, but still comfortable, if it weren’t for a bunch of unnecessary software from the manufacturer, which climbs literally from all cracks, ating and climbing out to the notification screen without permission. It is impossible to remove or "calm" him, and this is very unpleasantly surprising. Also, the well-known fingerprint scanner is located inconveniently, not super critical of course, but I had to get used to it for at least two weeks. Perhaps everything. Overall rating 5 with a fat minus. Minus for Samsung software. Everything else is so far only very pleasing and most likely the same second one will be bought into the family, and this despite the fact that this is the first Samsung in the family. Overall very satisfied and would recommend to everyone. . The GPS receiver does not work normally, it turned out to be a massive trouble.

Pros
  • Display, camera, form factor and tactile sensations, quality of communication and mobile Internet, flagship hardware on board. The stability of the firmware.
Cons
  • Bixby is stupid despite the most powerful hardware, it has a separate button that no one needs, the location of the fingerprint scanner, a bunch of imposed software that can neither be removed nor even "calm down"
