Review on Renewed Samsung Galaxy πŸ’™ S8+ Coral Blue, 64GB for AT&T by Yusri ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not exactly the product I wanted, the price and quality do not match.

The phone is really attractive to look at from the front, which is one of the reasons I decided to get it approximately three months ago. I'm still unable to watch it! Without a covering, it is awkward to hold in one's hand and carry around. We had far higher expectations for the build quality and materials, at least on par with those of HTC. In my particular instance, the back window was adhered in an uneven manner, and the metal rim was scratched in some way, despite the fact that the case was brand new. Only at the highest resolution does the screen seem decent. I liked how it was longer than it was wide. Even while the visual quality isn't terrible, AMOLED displays aren't really for everyone. When I take out my old phone, the HTC M9, which has an IPS screen, I find that the picture on that screen is much more to my liking. It has higher clarity, and it is generally more appealing to the eye. The fact that water protection is effective is very essential to me; in fact, I tested it even in salt water. After that, the phone will not accept a charge for around two days, blaming the problem on moisture in the charging port. It seems as though there is a software restriction preventing drying with a hair dryer because it is pointless. I was able to trick him by plugging in the charging line at the same instant that the phone was activated (when the Samsung inscription appears). The iris scanner is a pointless piece of technology. In order to use the mask, you will first need to unlock the phone by pressing the button, then swipe the screen, and last spin the phone so that it is in front of your eyes. In addition to being lengthy, it also has a peculiar appearance from the outside. The ability to recognize faces is dependent on there being adequate lighting. The fact that none of the unlocking methods operate properly is disheartening, especially when one considers that the fingerprint sensor is also malfunctioning and contributing to the problem. The battery has a good life span. Despite the fact that I load the phone up quite a bit, it looks like I won't have enough until the end of the day. The phone number is not one that can only be used once. In my opinion, it is not worth the money that is being asked for it, and the claims that this is the best phone that can currently be purchased on the market are somewhat contentious. Yet he is just attractive, and there are currently no typical alternatives to the design (LG G6 is not so liked). The impression of the phone as a whole is positive, and for the time being I am willing to overlook all of his numerous flaws in order to enjoy using it.

Pros
  • I have always fantasized about having a face like that, and yours is really stunning! Despite the fact that it serves no practical use, the curved display lends the phone an appealingly unique appearance. Very stunning shell. Satisfied with how well the phone holds its shape. Because the Samsung tablets I've used in the past have been notoriously prone to glitches and performance issues, I was really concerned about how this one would compare. There are microlags, but they do not cause a significant amount of frustration. Not a bad camera. The colors have a fairly strong saturation by default, however the options allow for any and all adjustments to be made. When I shot in low light settings, I was pleasantly impressed by the results. It's great that IP68!
Cons
  • Bixby button - I don't know how many times I've wished death upon the individual who decided to place it there! There is always a push of the button by accident when you press the power button because your index finger is always on it. And even though there isn't a button, he still manages to get out of there on a regular basis, which is quite frustrating. By the way, the thing itself is completely ridiculous; it seems to be some kind of low-rent imitation of Blinkfeed from NTS, with the addition of a voice assistant that does not function properly. It doesn't take long for the screen to become scratched. I did not witness this on any other phones save the one I used (there was Sony, iPhone and 2 NTS). After only two months, the oleophobic screen coating started to flake off in various places. It had a very short lifespan. On the most recent NTS, I saw this after two years of heavy use, and even then, it wasn't all that noticeable. A week after the purchase, I discovered that one of the pixels was damaged. Because it can only be seen against a dark background, I don't have to strain my eyes (I do not use the Olweis display mode). The screen has a slight pinkish tint where the curves are located (it also does not bother). I am adding my voice to the chorus of people who are cursing the fingerprint sensor. After living there for two months, I was still getting used to the new environment when I left. In addition to this, it is fairly slow and, on occasion, it does not work correctly the first time. Very unpleasant dialer; instantly put in a third party.
