In general, its pretty good, an equal number of pros and cons.

Good device. The best option for the role of "workhorse" without obvious flaws. At first I was afraid that it was too bulky (after the LG G6), but I got used to the size instantly. Battery - two days. The screen - without remarks, in the afternoon at a bright sun it is well read. The software works stably and exactly as you expect. Everything flies quickly, tasks are solved without brakes.

The cameras are sufficient for high-quality "household" shooting and all sorts of instagrams. I was especially pleased with the telephoto (for the sake of it, I took 72). And for artistic photography, I have Nikon FF. It is important to understand that only the standard module gives the best quality. Pro-mode is also active for it. A shirik and even more telephoto - this is only for shooting in good lighting conditions.

The sound is no worse than in the LG G6 equipped with an analog chip. Compared through JBL headphones for 1200. I did not connect audiophile headphones.

The connection quality did not bring any discoveries - just like the LG G6. The fingerprint scanner is a solid 4. In the old phone, the scanner on the back gave 99.9% correct responses the first time. In Samsung - 75-80 percent.

But in general - a good device with all the necessary functions, no flaws and modest appearance of the "workhorse".

Pros

See comment.

Cons

I'm ating my review after a few months of use. The phone has two fat minuses, because of which I wanted to return to the old device - LG G6 1. After the last ate of the system, the fingerprint scanner began to work REALLY. It's just kind of a pain. Sometimes it does not work at all, and you have to type a password. Before, everything was more or less stable. Unlocking with the camera works through a stump deck, depending on the lighting. And you can't rely on it. 2. The manufacturer COMPLETELY blocked the ability to record a conversation. It can be seen that this is done purposefully. All ways to record a conversation end in silence on the recorded file. Previously, there was such a possibility. Until the last ate. For me, this shortcoming is critical, because. I am a journalist and I need to record conversations with my interlocutors. In general, the advantages of the device fade against the background of these two serious shortcomings.
