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

Revainrating 3 out of 5

A normal product, but they wanted more for the money.

I enjoy the gadget generally, primarily for the camera. But reliability turned out to be a poor concept. It is not necessary to have a curved screen, however Samsung did not provide versions with the same features and a flat screen. About the battery, they express their complaints here, but it seemed to me that everything was in order, and when compared to other Android devices, the Samsung even lasts a little bit longer. When I haven't used much, I might charge every third day. A YouTuber in the metro and an hour of active Internet browsing combined to drain the battery by 10% or more. By the way, the eighth Android worked longer; based on the numbers presented here, I believe this is because Google services, which essentially consume a lot of background resources, are to blame. Also, everything continues to function as it should despite my permanent activation of greater energy conservation (though not at its maximum). When not needed, I attempt to turn off Bluetooth, GPS, and Wi-Fi. After two years, most things are still the same, but in the second half of the year, strange battery discharges started to occur. For example, the battery would still be discharged (linearly) even though the phone was lying dormant and not being used, with the exception of Google services. You do not have a phone because you left the phone on charge for about two and a half hours. I haven't had the opportunity to use it yet.

Pros
  • + The camera is excellent; it looks great and, in my opinion, shoots better than any other identical model that was available for purchase at the time. Night photography is extremely enjoyable (1.5 aperture is excellent); in the image, I can see more than I can in person. Sharpness, color reproduction, and quick focus. I grabbed it and pressed it; no lengthy tweaks, corrections, or focussing were required. + The screen is fairly decent, with the exception of the curvature; it is outstanding in terms of brightness and color, but it requires additional software settings. + The performance of the gps, wi-fi, bluetooth, and mobile networks is excellent. I was particularly interested in positioning because I frequently visit forests and lakes; the device did not dissapoint, searching quickly and precisely. + Software from Samsung is often normal. + Excellent warranty service (see below for breakdowns).
Cons
  • - A strip in the touchscreen appeared after 8 months of very careful use, for no apparent reason. The taps started to "fail" in this area of the screen, and when you click on the dropped strip, it counts as two taps. But as a promise, they replaced the complete screen and Akum in a single day, thus there are no longer any issues. - Oddly enough, their main selling point is a curved screen, which is very annoying. WHY? This is a particular issue on websites with infa on the sides because it makes it very tough to poke where it is needed and makes watching movies and videos strange. Naturally, I knew what I was aiming at, but I didn't anticipate how inconvenient it would be. * Bixby button is not required; bxAction suffices. But, the ability to frequently alter it was added in the most recent ates, glory to Cthulhu, so don't consider this a drawback.
