- Beautiful appearance, pleasant materials, it is a pity that all this beauty still has to be hidden under the cover. I am glad that there is no Samsung inscription above the screen, as in younger models. Bright, juicy screen, with excellent resolution. Even after six months of use, I can’t stop enjoying the screen, I like to watch clips and videos with nature in 2K resolution, and it’s also very convenient to watch movies and TV shows on your phone while traveling. The brightness of the screen is enough on the sunniest day, but I would make the minimum brightness darker. The oleophobic coating is of high quality, the screen is very resistant to scratches. The size of the phone suits me, it fits in any pocket, fits well in the hand, but if you try to tie your shoelaces with such a device in your jacket pocket, it will cause some difficulties. The main camera pleases every day! I photograph nature, landscapes, sunsets, sunrises, perfectly conveys colors, at night I also take decent pictures, during lectures when shooting from Kamchatka, the photos are well readable, I think that the camera on this phone copes with all its tasks by 100%. The quality of the video recording is also at its best, the stabilization works well, I shot video while riding a snowmobile at a speed of 50 km / h and was satisfied, the shaking is minimal. The battery holds a charge well, charges quickly, enough for me for a whole day of active use, does not discharge in cold weather. The ability to broadcast sound via bluetooth to two devices with independent volume control is a cool feature, we like to use it with a girl in the kitchen when we cook. I like the ability to divide the screen into two working windows, I often use it when watching videos on YouTube.
- Slow fingerprint sensor, unwillingness to recognize wet fingers, extremely inconvenient location, the camera lens often gets dirty, despite the fact that for quick (no) fingerprint readability, the finger must be positioned perfectly on the sensor. During a telephone conversation, the screen is often unlocked, in order to lock it back, you have to put the phone aside and bring it to your ear again. The face recognition sensor is very slow, compared with pocofone f1, it’s impossible to use, it doesn’t work in the dark, I had to turn it off. Perhaps for some it will seem like a trifle, but it’s hard to get into the charging connector without scratching the phone case, the wire is not inserted intuitively, in the dark I have to look for it, with other phones this problem has never arisen. Absolutely useless Bixby app and inconvenient location of the button of this app. I often confuse this button with the volume down button, the impossibility of disabling this button or assigning another program to it without third-party programs. The external speaker is not loud enough. The lens of the main camera specifically on my phone is installed crookedly (it does not affect the shooting). When you quickly launch the camera by double-clicking the lock button on the screen, sometimes a window pops up on top of the camera with a proud inscription that I just used the quick launch, which is very difficult for instant shooting. Because of the curved screen, almost any protective glass pushes the case in the corners, I had to cut the case, later I refused the protective glass in favor of the case, for half a year so far not a single scratch. On the upper edge between the display and the body, you can see the gap of the screen above the front camera in the dark. The location of the lock button is inconvenient, sometimes I involuntarily press it with my fingers from the opposite side when I want to change the volume, also when the phone is lying vertically on its side, when I try to change the volume, the lock button is pressed through, I would install it on the top.
- - Already built-in wireless charging, as well as a new type of charging. - Design. Purely subjective feeling.
- - Very fragile and slippery, because glass on all sides is perhaps the only downside. - Charging is so-so, but not critical. - Bixby is a separate button that cannot be remapped.
- Good camera. Not afraid of water. Bright, colorful screen.
- Low autonomy. Non-switchable assistant call button.
- Excellent design, very pleasant to the touch, very fast
- The battery life is just terrible: the phone is turned on for only 13 hours, of which the screen is turned on for only 2.5 and only 23% are left and they are melting before our eyes ! This is the most expensive phone I have ever bought and none of my previous phones held such a terrible battery! The phone is very fragile : almost any fall and you can break the screen and/or the back cover, and they are super expensive I always thought that the fingerprint sensor at the back is inconvenient, for those who doubt it: it’s not convenient for PPC - it’s not easy to feel it from behind, it doesn’t work very well; when the phone is on the table you can’t press it in any way, there is also face recognition: but this is definitely worse than the front print - it works more slowly, you often have to bring the phone closer, the bright sun has a negative effect, it almost doesn’t work in the dark, and in general the manufacturer admits that when accelerated face recognition (if not accelerated, probably wait 5 seconds, did not try) phone security by this method is not very good There is also verification by the retina, I don’t know about security, but it definitely works worse than the first two methods: you definitely need to bring the phone closer to your face, it doesn’t work right away, so it’s more like a show off Its whole design, no matter how loud it sounds, is by and large primitive: it’s just a piece of soap ending in a pleasant glossy black color and slippery like soap and it resembles cars whose headlights and taillights are painted (pasted with a film) black Today (the phone is 3 days old) I noticed a glitch: it doesn’t send / doesn’t receive messages in viber: there is an Internet on both sims, wi-fi too, no matter what I did / rebooted - I haven’t figured it out yet
- I bought a Galaxy S4 after a long use, so make a discount on it - I, like after a bike with 3 gears, moved to a varnished Mercedes. - The first thing that fascinates in this smartphone is ergonomics. When you hold it in your hands without any covers, it's like a single piece of smooth glass in your hands. The rounded edges are so nice to touch that you want to cry. (Feeling like you're living in the future) - The glass is very cool, almost not easily soiled (choose it). You just need to take a piece of chocolate and move it to leave at least some traces. - The cameras are chic: I'm not a frequenter of instagrams, but for myself I took pictures with both the main camera and the front camera - it turned out wonderfully. All sorts of filters, hyperloops, super slow motions are included. Photos / scans documents (via Google Drive) perfectly - Side panels that are swiped out of the rounded edges. I use it all the time, it's very convenient. - Software buttons. I removed all the buttons on the screen, made them swipe, which I advise you. The entire screen is occupied by content, always - Regular ates; the phone is ated in 3 minutes - Millions of options! For example, you can download large files at the same time via Wi-Fi and 4G, which is really faster. Protected folder, night mode, etc. etc. - Defenders: prints, face, pupils. Works great, everything is fine with Samsung Pay. WORLD does not accept o. O. - No lags, freezes, reboots, overheating were noticed. I even distributed Wi-Fi from it and downloaded 30 GB Mortal Kombat X via Steam - the smartphone got a little warm - Charging holds for several days, very rarely I charge, although I constantly sit through 4G and distribute Wi-Fi. It charges in less than an hour (thanks to Fast Charge. all kinds of adapters are included so that you can take their microUSB from friends and use it) - I'll put BixBy in the pros - a small last point. More like a toy, but cool: in real cases it’s hard to imagine how you can use it.
- - When you hold the smartphone horizontally, sometimes you pinch the speaker with your hand: there may be slight problems with games - There are no standard themes, and those that are are terribly ugly. I put myself a children's theme "Picnic" from the theme market, at least it looks aesthetically pleasing - Headphones in the set are so-so, although I did not expect anything from them. Their only plus is a chic wire that can not be tangled and you want to hold it in your hands (can you rearrange the speakers of my headphones in this case? hmm .) - The resolution is very non-standard, but all applications work perfectly. I decided to add it to the shortcomings, because the video has "black bars" along the edges, although you can stretch the video and crop the top and bottom. After half a year of use, I can say that in most videos you don’t need top and bottom :) For example, I watched musicals with subtitles and everything was perfectly visible
- - undeniably AMOLED screen; - widescreen and borderless. I will note this separately; - the design is just a nightmare; - IP68 - moisture and dust protection; - dimensions and weight; - 3000 mAh battery; - interface design, highlighting frames, buns from Samsung, applications, etc.; - a kit (2pcs adapters, charger, cable, AKG headphones! Well, where did you see putting headphones for 3k in a kit) transferred data from iPhone 6 to s8 in just a few minutes (photos, videos, documents, contacts) and all with the bundled cable and USB-TypeC adapter. Ambushurs; - performance (a fan of iOS, but due to the fact that the trend is just to release a new version of iOS every 2 weeks, I began to be disappointed in the operating system; - 12MP camera will not leave you indifferent; - samsung pay.
- - unlocking the phone is a dance with tambourines. I use face recognition and fingerprint (I’ll tell you about the work separately); - few accessories (it's more a matter of time than a drawback), at the time of purchase there was only a film; - the camera frame sticks out (it will begin to wear off over time if you do not use the bumper or case)
- Camera, design, ease of use
- There are blunders left
- 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.😀 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.
- 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.
