Review on πŸ“± Unlocked Samsung Galaxy S9 G960U 64GB Smartphone with 4G LTE & 12MP Camera - Midnight Black by Pin Mu Lin ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The quality is top notch and I recommend the product for purchase.

Prior to making the purchase, there were not particularly great hopes for the phone. After putting it to use for a few days, I was really pleased with it. - After using it for a period of six months, here are the positives: + The phone continues to impress with its long-lasting battery and high-quality photographs (especially at night). + We are convinced that the battery will last for two days. When utilized to its fullest extent till the day's end, there is never any need for additional. Because of this, I no longer need to bring my charger with me to work. The only time I check to see whether I need to charge it is in the evening, because during the day I don't even think about the amount of charge the battery has. Plus with the addition of "live photographs," similar to what the iPhone offers. There are times when there are humorous moments. The wife of the iPhone Xr, where the implementation of this function is much more polished. To activate the animation, you will need to click the "play" button, which functions more like the play button on a video player. + Even after six months of use, there is still a pleasant feeling to how it sits in the hand and looks. This is true despite the fact that it has been used. The screen has excellent quality, and it is still very quick. There are no lags in the process. a few drawbacks: the portrait mode is not very good. Often fails to focus properly and blurs to an extreme degree. Photos almost never come out better than what they actually are when they are developed. In addition, shooting images with this setting is an extremely sluggish process. I've ceased making use of this functionality. - While in automatic mode, the shutter speed of the camera is not very quick While the Pixel and iPhone Xr are orders of magnitude faster, the quality of images taken in low light more than makes up for this drawback. The screen cannot be turned on by double-tapping the home button. It's not a very good idea to press down very hard on a particular area at the very bottom of the screen. - Since unlocking using a face or retinal scan is painfully sluggish, I disabled both of those options and no longer make use of them. The fingerprint scanner does store data, however it is not the quickest method. - throughout the most recent couple of months after eating, I've been having some issues with the automatic brightness control - it's always trying to blind me. - If the camera locks up and refuses to take any further shots (both video and stills), restarting it can assist. While taking photos with the camera set to the frontal mode, it is common for the resulting images to be horizontally rotated. - I would say that I am pleased with the phone overall and that I do not have any regrets about making the purchase. There are certain things that could be improved, but they are not deal-breakers.

Pros
  • I purchased a phone from Qualcom in the United States of America, and the battery lasts for an exceptionally long time. I charge it once every two days, and it has enough juice for the full two days plus another 10-15%. In the identical conditions, the LG G3 lasted for around half a day, but the iPhone 5 lasted until the evening. It is quick, it fits nicely in the hand, it has a great screen and sound, it has a tiny jack, I charge it once every two days, it is not slippery, and it has a wonderful camera. When the phone is placed on a flat surface with the screen facing down, the silent mode is activated, and the rounded corners of the phone glow in a circular pattern whenever a notification is received.
Cons
  • There is now the first generation of the Google Pixel, which takes pictures more quickly and efficiently. The Galaxy S9 produces decent images, but even the first pixel on the Pixel 2 is far faster, and the resulting image is much more impressive. Nonetheless, the night images that can be taken with the S9 are very impressive. There is no option to double tap the screen in order to activate it. Instead, a firm push on the screen in the location where the home button ought to be would accomplish the same thing. Although it's not very comfortable, you should be able to adapt quite quickly. Via the use of the bxActions application, the independently-controlled bigsby button can be reprogrammed to do any purpose. Through the use of Navbar Apps, the bottom navigation bar can be personalized (red icon)
