Review on πŸ’Ž Renewed Samsung Galaxy S8 64GB Coral Blue Fully Unlocked Phone by Abhi GC ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A nice option for the money, one of the best deals.

Haha, found my old post. I have been using this phone for almost 3 years now. And it still works great, nothing lags, everything is super. BUT! He's really, really fragile. I fell three times and every time it was tragic. The first is a strong chip on the screen and a cobweb in all directions. Changed screen. Then some slight fall and the rear window also went into a cobweb, although it was under the cover. And the very last fall on the asphalt, the top corner crumbled, it’s not even noticeable, so I decided not to spend money on a replacement.

Pros
  • Yes, overall it's great! Outwardly, it’s just space, I use almost memory and still have not tired of admiring. For me, the screen is perfect, I love bright and vibrant colors. It lies very comfortably in the hand, I can easily reach everything I need with my right hand. The camera is just fire. Even in low light, the pictures are very good. Particularly pleased with the front. performance. I hope Android will not let you down, and over time, the smartphone will not start to freeze. Battery. That's what I didn't even expect, to be honest! My old galaxy s4 on the 4th year of life became very bad, the battery was not enough for half a day of active use. And here, the settings are at maximum speed, the Internet is on all day, nfs, music, vk, some kind of toy periodically and the charge is enough for the whole day. But it's practically not looking up from the screen. And if you use it adequately, then 50-60% of the maximum will be spent per day. The coolest thing is fast charging. I see no reason to charge all night. In the evening I loaded it, if you stick to the screen before going to bed, then in the morning these percent are 15, but at least 40 are charged up to 100 while you are going. Pleased with all sorts of branded chips. The blue filter after 23 hours is simply not replaceable, it is much more comfortable for the eyes. Always on display is a very handy feature, it cures addiction to constantly check the time, etc.πŸ˜€ The face recognition function works very well. I don’t want to look at the eyes, it’s easier on the face, he recognizes well at an angle, and in a hat and in semi-darkness. Works in conjunction with a print. I realized that the main advantage of such recognition is on the street. Now it's cold, you can read the message without taking out your gloves.
Cons
  • Some quibbles, more related to habits. The speaker is a little disappointing. The sound is not bad, but it is one, if you block it with your finger, then the sound completely disappears. Headphones are good, but not the best either. If the phone is on the table, then you can’t just unlock it. Finger scanner on the back cover, the face at this angle is not scanned, only if you enter a code / pattern / password. Or, pick it up. There is no standard player at all initially, but I downloaded it, it is so-so. Bixby - it's not terrible, but it's annoying that it pops up on the lock screen too. It is a pity that it is difficult to match the film with the case, since the case basically lifts all the films due to the curved edges. And here is the main disadvantage so far - fragility. I never dropped it, but nevertheless micro-scratches appeared. On the back cover it is not clear why scratches appeared, and a scratch appeared on the screen after talking on the phone, and apparently from an earring! I was so shocked that I immediately pasted the film. Although on his s4 for all the years not a single film.
