Review on πŸ“± Fully Unlocked Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ 256GB Renewed - Aura Glow Silver by Ada Wado ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Exactly as promised by the manufacturer, high quality.

Now the specifics. My device is not RosTest, but for Hong Kong. Not on Exinos, but on Snapdragon 855. The difference in performance is enormous. By the way, the price is also for the better. For the fact that RosTest flaunts on a smartphone (no one really tests anything), you will give 10-30% of extra money! What is a smartphone used for in the first place? These are calls and the Internet. So, where the shovel on Exinos does not catch or catches disgustingly, the Snapdragon 855 has a confident reception! Alas, Samsung, either finish Exinos in this regard, or you will have to put up with the fact that users in Europe and the 2022 will write angry reviews about the quality of communication. And most are already aware that Exinos is good only in the zone of confident reception. I had S9 + on Exinos, and I felt the difference with Snapdragon, as they say, in my own skin. Where 4G reception on Snapdragon is solid, Exinos will jump between standards and eat battery. Eat with a good appetite and smack your lips! Autonomy. The work of the device after the first charge did not please anything. Enough for a day of light . Experience said: discharge-discharge, then look. Yes, it did. Discharging it to zero and charging it to 100% on a normal charge, I was amazed. All day long - WiFi or 4G, I constantly write in social networks, mail, turn the screen on and off often. The battery lasted for more than 30 (!) hours . I put it on charge for 20% . Yes, I'm not a gamer. I'm not interested in games. What is the reason for this autonomy? A very balanced power consumption system, as well as really the best performance from Snapdragon! The general impression is positive. I recommend to all.

Pros
  • Samsung smartphones are not just good devices, they are a solution! 1. Huge, juicy with great black. Dynamic AMOLED display - that says it all. 3 resolutions are available: HD+, FullHD, WQHD+. The number of color profiles was reduced to 2. But you can choose the hue and saturation manually. 2. Cameras. There are many and they are impressive. For those who are interested in subtleties, look at the reviews. 3. Large 4300 mAh battery. Sophisticated energy management system. About autonomy - in the comments. 4. Luxurious proprietary interface. After the first launch, the smartphone said that it wanted to upgrade to Android 10 and ated quite quickly. Along with the new Android, a new One UI 2.0 shell has arrived. 5. NFC (Samsung and/or Google Pay), Bluetooth 5.0. The latter is convenient for me because I use both the Samsung Watch and a wireless headset. At the same time, I manage calls from the clock, and I speak through the headset. This is thanks to the 5.0 standard. 6. Well, Samsung's signature SPen stylus. Now it's a whole computer in a Bluetooth pen that turns into a camera remote control. Autonomy is almost 11 hours! Writing notes with SPen is a pleasure. At the same time, when choosing different virtual pens, pencil, etc., the corresponding sound will be emitted during writing. Very impressive 4000 degrees of pressure and calligraphy pen. 7. Along with the new shell, new gestures for control also arrived. 8. And I'm already used to the Edge sidebar! 9. You can very flexibly configure how the off screen will display notifications; glow of the side faces and so on. 10. Face unlock is fast and wearing glasses is no problem now. I have not used this feature before. 11. Removed the analog headphone jack. The minijack is just a fierce anachronism! By the way, due to it, the battery was increased by 200-300 mA / h! 12. Clear, loud and rich sound. Conversational speaker - under the display, the sound is output in a narrow gap between the display and the case. An unusual and successful solution.
Cons
  • 1. The fingerprint sensor under the screen with a rather small sensor is a moot point. I can’t say that this is really a big drawback, but the scanner should be finalized, it may well be that the shortcomings will be fixed in subsequent firmware. Speed ​​and sensitivity leave much to be desired. Perhaps the pasted protective film plays a negative role. 2. Protective film. I am not a supporter of protective films - I will say right away, but I can put up with it if everything is done normally. In stores, managers glue the films in such a way that you won’t look without tears, and after a while, it completely begins to peel off. Yes, this one is pasted evenly, without bubbles and with high quality. BUT! Does not reach the edges of the display - how to understand this, dear Samsung? The corners of the display, figuratively speaking, hang behind the film. When trying to call the Edge panel, the finger constantly clings to the edge of the film. 3. The power button, moved to the left edge, is not a drawback, but something that caused bewilderment. You can understand - they tried to combine it with the Bixby button (generally a controversial thing). But I got used to it almost immediately. Bixby has disabled all features. Bixby is a total piece of junk. Fortunately, here everything is regularly turned off, not like in S9 +, where the service fought only by stopping it, and it rose from the dead a couple of times. 4. Absence of an iris scanner. On the other hand, where to insert the emitter? But the level of security of the iris scanner is much higher than that of face unlock.
