Revainrating 3 out of 5

A completely ordinary product, nothing remarkable.

Although Samsung presents itself as a direct competitor to Apple, the company has mastered the art of producing small devices that are at least no larger than Apple's iPhone 8. - In general, due to the standard camera and operating (unlike the iPhone) NFC, you have to put up with the hefty size of the device Some pros: a high-quality camera; the inclusion of a socket for headphones; the accessibility of an online radio service Got cons: - Feeling somewhat heavy and cumbersome in the hand, - The Indonesian version of Samsung Pay cannot be destroyed, but the European version can be installed; therefore, it is inoperable. - Text size for Samsung's push notifications is extremely limited. It can only be made larger by making a general adjustment to the size of the typeface used by the system. As a consequence of this, if notifications appear to be somewhat typical, the font size in other programs is probably already quite large. - It is inconvenient because, unlike on iPhones, push notifications on Android devices are consolidated into a single block. When using an iPhone, indicators on application icons in the form of dots or dots with a number of unviewed messages disappear when you enter these applications and view changes. However, when using a Samsung, these dots continue to hang and do not disappear, which points to system flaws. This is in contrast to the behavior of iPhones, where these dots disappear when you enter these applications and view changes. Android - Unlike iPhones, Samsung devices occasionally send out signals, and in the vast majority of instances, it is not at all clear what event caused the signal. - Instead of placing at least a slot for SIM cards on the left edge of the smartphone, Samsung chose to leave the left edge of the device completely empty. - Samsung devices occasionally send out signals. To what end? Since they crammed both the headphone jack and the charging connector onto the bottom edge, there was no room left over for a full-fledged dual speaker to be placed there. As a result, the bottom edge was left without a speaker. This is in spite of the fact that there is a significant amount of space even on the top edge of the device, at least for the same headphone jack. As a consequence, the smartphone demonstrates poor technological design and planning.
