Review on Smartphone Samsung Galaxy A8 4/32 GB RU, Dual nano SIM, black by Adam Kowalski ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Mediocre product, probably won't use.

The device fell in price for 1 quarter by 7,000. Do you understand? Apple iPhone, bought from me for 10,000, Apple then sells as "restored", already for 22,000. Extravaganza. . I sold this Samsung exactly after 3 months of use. Different pros: 1. Pen-Tile display. The brightness and juiciness that many expect from AMOLED is not very important in everyday life, that is, as a smartphone for calls and reading SMS, letters. And if you use it normally, then this display is no different from IPS on an iPhone. The brightness is the same if you bring it to the maximum and compare. In general, the display is good, but if it's summer, the sun, and you're wearing sunglasses (a common case), you won't see juiciness and brightness. And in the shade - well. 2. Ability to insert a microSD card. Bold plus. Immediately all the music in the phone. All photos are directly to the computer. If you are often on the road, then you have a lot of music in your smartphone. In an apple smartphone, transferring music to the phone is a waste of time, comparable to the opportunity to earn money and buy this music in the AppStore. The same thing, transferring photos, videos, voice recordings from an apple phone to a regular computer is a torment for an ordinary person, and a waste of time. 3. Camera. Compared with the apple phone 6S +, it is a new generation, better. A test photo was taken, a portrait, the file size is 16MB - for a portrait, that's good. Although there is a separate digital camera. Focusing does not miss, an ordinary person will be able to take high-quality photos. Color rendition without errors. 4. TRADE-IN from Samsung. You get a discount of 10,000 if you rent out an old apple tree. For 16,000 to buy, already the real price, for this device. 5. Music sounds bright and natural with good headphones. Google Music now does not interfere with keeping your collection on your phone, which is very good. MP3 should be honest, not joint, and everything will be great. 6. I don’t know what kind of whims about the hull. If you buy an ordinary silicone pad on the back, and a protective glass (all together -215 + 400), then it becomes normal. Protected from splashes and dust, from dirty hands. All that is needed. The phone itself can withstand wet cleaning, the declared protection IP68 is. 7. Two SIM cards. This is a huge plus, just decisive. Walking with 2 smartphones in the summer when you are in trousers and a T-shirt is not realistic. Cons: I won't repeat everything that other people have said here. I will only speak for myself. I switched to this device from the apple phone 6C plus. 1. Battery. I deleted all useless programs, cleaned my smartphone, turned on battery optimization, and still consumption in standby mode is 2 times higher than in the apple phone. This is written in other reviews, I confirm it is true. Perhaps pure Android would solve the problem. Lots of unnecessary programs running in the background. Forced geolocation from Google (cannot be turned off). 2. Built-in programs from Samsung are 80% useless. The only thing - protection from strangers, password to enter. But if the device falls into the hands of the mafia, then this protection will not save. A request to Samsung from "you know who", and that's it. 3. The mood is overshadowed by information, though from FB, from a "well-wisher", about the display burn-in test. I would like to hear from Samsung themselves clarification. I don’t want to buy a smartphone in which after 3 years to change the display. There is no such thing in the apple tree. 4. The installed McAfree antivirus is an epic failure. Everyone who is in the topic of security remembers the scandal with this office. In short, they stole the personal data of users.
