Samsung Galaxy S8 Review: To Infinity and Beyond? | Pocketnow

Galaxy S8 and S8+ Skins: dbrand.com/sam...
Our full Samsung Galaxy S8+ text review is here: /2017/05/14/samsung-galaxy-s8-review
For much more details, camera samples, and in-depth data, check it out!
For the last two weeks I've been approached by at least 10 people for the same two questions that always came together. The first was: Oh, is that the new Galaxy? The second is: Well, but does it explode? This proves how much of a footprint Samsung owns in the smartphone market, where people associate the name Galaxy more to a phone than to the Milky way, and where one mistake has only made the brand even more viral.
The result is record sales all across the globe, but the question is if all that marketing accounts to a smart buy for you. Watch our full review to learn more.

[@shreezalgc]

I don't care about the phone. Just came here to listen you say "I'm Jaime Rivera."

[@alexdiezg]

make a soundboard of some kind that can play "I'm Jaime Rivera." over and over again

[@Sal3600]

But but he likes it FRESH.

[@alexdiezg]

Sal3600 tune the sound up. Make it sound fresh lol

[@MetalMatt2510]

@0:33

[@antoniomireles3079]

😂😂😂

[@techpassion4126]

I knew the bezels were small, but I never expected the phone to be so small in the hand when I actually held it. My Mate 9 looked gigantic next to the S8, and it's even more amazing when you consider that my Huawei's display is just 0.1" larger than the Galaxy, it really impressed me a lot. The S8 felt as petite as my old 5" Lumia 830, so good job on Samsung for minimising those bezels ^^

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

It's an interesting fight when you consider the surface area.

[@techpassion4126]

Indeed, and to think the old S5 was just launched a few years ago back in 2014, what a leap in design by Samsung. For looks, LG's G6 is a good competitor, and even BlackBerry's KeyOne, though not a bezel-buster, looks incredibly unique in an elegant yet sturdy way. Looks of course are subjective. As it seems, this year's new flagships from Apple, Nokia, HTC, and Huawei have quite a number of rivals to stand up against in terms of design now. Really looking forward to all the phones coming out this year! ^^

[@Kratos30000]

TechPassion I was just as amazed as you were, however, dont forget you cant enjoy whole screen size, as the bezels are curved. i dont like the aspect ratio either.. its just pointless to watch videos on this device

[@techpassion4126]

Tank Man i don't really mind the curved display too much, I actually really like the look of it and don't mind sacrificing a little bit of the display ^^ However, as weird as this may sound, what I do mind is if my phone is too light. I like something that feels substantial and slightly heavy, and my Mate 9 achieves that. I'd love the smaller body of the S8, but the lack of weight makes it feel a tad flimsy for me, even though I can safely assume it was assembled amazingly well. It's an incredibly weird preference I know, but I just love something that's nicely weighted

[@suicidesilence4444]

TechPassion the reason its lighter than previous galaxys is because of VR. People always complained that heavy phones make their head tired when holding a heavy phone to their face.

[@aja8590]

Really surprised to see Dbrand sponsoring a tech video. Good to see them branching out.

[@eurosonly]

NewOrder66 Sith branding out

[@taylornguyen2503]

are you high? dbrand legit sponsors so many others tech reviewers, not just this one, and for a long time already

[@Keidoupe]

hes being sarcastic you dense idiots

[@HaohmaruHL]

NewOrder66 Sith the whole idea of someone sponsoring a video on KZbin is already retarded to begin with. As if the video can't be filmed, edited and uploaded without some random 3rd party douchebags sponsoring it. But this is democratic society full of selfish money hungry morons so what do I know..

[@intricatedesign3559]

Money hungry? These videos cost money to make buddy, and these people make a living off of youtube. How do you think they manage to do this? Because the views alone are certainly not enough to pay them.

[@seandolla]

This phone is not "laggy" at all..i can't get it to lag/stutter with like 30 apps in the background and super high res live homescreen rainpaper active constantly..phone is the smoothest I've ever used of all androids.

[@Martin-iq9wz]

Im using a Galaxy s8+ and its not laggy at all, its going really smooth

[@nickackermanchannel]

Great review! Galaxy S8 plus after using it a week has been fantastic! spot on video :)

[@Cookiem0sta]

Watching this on my S8+!

[@eurosonly]

Cookiem0sta well aren't you special

[@Cookiem0sta]

eurosonly very special

[@slovingsole]

Cookiem0sta same best phone ever

[@slovingsole]

aestheticsforlife excellent, battery life is amazing and the phone is extremely fast with a amazing screen

[@Cookiem0sta]

aestheticsforlife I agree with the other guy awesome battery life, surprisingly very smooth, probably one of the few androids that have allot of apps optimized for it. The display you definitely have to see in person to appreciate. Even though it has allot of features, the software is lite and runs like a dream.

[@alexkwan3]

Every single year Samsung software feels slow and every year reviewers excuse it by saying updates will fix it and every year Samsung doesn't fix the lag issues. Maybe you guys should stop giving Samsung the benefit of the doubt and start going hard on them. Or are you guys like most and are afraid to be blacklisted by major companies that send you phones like Samsung?

[@bamachikaboi]

its a common problem with every non-stock android phone

[@jejunamja]

Creative Me ... most I would say... but my HTC 10 hasn't slowed down at all and is even better after the 7.0 update it got in Nov 2016... I also think the one+3t also doesn't seem to have that problem.

[@aaqibchowdhury3549]

jonah travisano I second this, my HTC 10 is also way faster after the 7.0 update, and it already was such a blazing fast phone on 6.0.1 to start with. HTC optimizes their phones very well.

[@bamachikaboi]

jonah travisano Yes, I agree Htc UI is great and one plus ui is very close to stock but i have seen problems with sony and Lg phones. I have latest touchwiz and its way better than previous touchwiz and i don't find it laggy

[@alexkwan3]

Creative Me not at all. I own a Huawei Honor 8 and Xiaomi Mi5s. They both have skins on top but both are responsive and rarely have stutters or slow downs, if at all. Even the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4's I got for both my parents run great on a mediatek processor.

[@IAmJe]

"Those Sunglasses look horrible " - are you wearing them....did you buy them.... this is a video review of a phone... not the person doing the review... Those type of comments are so irrelevant, your opinion isn't a fact

[@VoloKinProject]

The S8 definitely has the WoW factor and it feels much nicer than the S8+ which is too big and heavy.

[@Lifted420haze]

VoloKin Project said the little guy with tiny hands. 😂

[@VoloKinProject]

***** I'm rocking the Honor Note 8 with a 6.6" mate.

[@VoloKinProject]

Bryan_A99​ that's true. One can always get used to a bigger phone including myself, but side by side the S8+ feels uncomfortable compared to the S8. I understand the benefits and need of the bigger one, but Samsung definitely nailed the S8 with that footprint. I've tried the G6 straight after that and it felt like a brick.

[@AshBethel]

Watching on Note 5, waiting patiently for the Note 8 to upgrade.

[@carlosalba7790]

Ash Bethel fr waiting for the note 8 is killing me, but the nougat update for the note 5 is keeping me patient for now lol

[@robglobal1]

Ash Bethel I agree although I also have an S7edge that is awesome my Note 5 feels like a whole new phone after the nougat update. Still runs like new. Samsung has come a looong way it's pretty amazing!

[@federicalfred1]

Ash Bethel same

[@jjgates6351]

But my note 5 is still a very capable phone; even by today's standard. Exynos rocks.

[@LuisPerez-dn1mg]

Seth Yang boy!!!! Just, just, if you're going to scroll through comments to make exploding phonestereotype jokes, just go away

[@IndianGagdgetGuy]

Galaxy S9 is coming with 99% screen !

[@ConnectMeToCrypto]

Samay Patel and 200+$ extra lol

[@Swoot]

Michelle Simone 300*

[@charonboat6394]

Samay Patel Heard somewhere it'll be 112%

[@Cards8114]

akira mifune My theory is No Bottom Bezel and same/thinner top bezel.

[@IndianGagdgetGuy]

Hahaha !

[@robglobal1]

Don't get why people hate on brand. Samsung has been killing it and people still talk s**t. No phone is perfect and any android flagship is far more capable than the pathetic iPhone yet iPhone users (I admitt I was one in the past) make up sad cases why they think they're better devices but in reality they're a joke for the price. If iPhones were $500 they'd be in the convo for best value phone but they're almost double that. People need to learn about tech. IPhone is so far behind it's laughable. They're finally going to get LED notification indicator for God's sake! And still doesn't have so many basic features it's unreal they'll been able to sell so many units based on brand loyalty alone.

[@lazarol616]

abcdefg Really, then why does my brothers S8 plus lags when he does everything. And it's so slow, like my old 6s was faster than the S8z

[@robglobal1]

That's either a lie or he has a faulty device and should exchange it asap. The only S8 problems ive seen was 1 device was randomly rebooting and another device lost the sound in the earpiece which i believe was because the customer dropped the device.

[@lazarol616]

abcdefg No not really. A lot of Samsung new phones and old ones too have this "Problem". Have you not see the speed tests iphone dominates the Samsung in speed. Even tho it doesn't have the outrageous specs that Samsung do. iPhones are better optimized. Samsung just have the looks and fancy new technology. And what's with that speaker like 1 speaker is so last year.

[@luisuribe5432]

Lazaro L you're probably lying my s7 doesn't even have lag

[@matthewdavisson]

abcdefg can you explain why the iPhone 7+ smokes the S8 in battery life and in speed?

[@andrewparkers9238]

Watching this video in 2022 and tge design still feels one of kind. This phone feels rich and premium. Peak Samsung.

[@morgannield5996]

I've had my Galaxy S8 for a year and a half now and I still love it. I upgraded when my S4 finally stopped working. My only issue with the S8 is trying to find a screen protector that really works for the curved glass and I've just given up at this point. Beyond that not a single complaint.

[@darydavid8832]

I just got my samsung s8 after 1 year it was introduced and i'm absolutely love it

[@garymac7075]

I've a s8,lovely phone,got it on crazy Friday for £370 in 2018 great price, great phone!!

[@shibui2466]

Lets just say this guy is the best in smartphone reviews... The end

[@Martin-iq9wz]

PhotoTech Nope, the best tech reviewer is Mr.Mobile

[@shibui2466]

Sub for Shrek are u saying that cus the Mr mobile giveaway? :p

[@Martin-iq9wz]

PhotoTech I already did all my entries :)

[@shibui2466]

Sub for Shrek me to ;) but i still prefer jaime xD

[@PiOfficial]

100% no the verge and MKBHD did a much better job

[@bprashant19]

Awesome review Jaime, loved the small skit at the start ;). I love that you and Juan are totally honest when reviewing stuff. Keep it up.

[@ryanhosteen6978]

You guys have such great production on your videos. Great work as always!

[@TroyKelley28]

Very calm, and didn't feel rushed! What a beautiful phone! PocketNow reviews always = Great review + Great Cinematography!

[@techh9171]

I prebooked s8+ can't wait to get my hands on

[@gcforreal]

Finally a review that tells the pros and cons and is not biased. Most other reviews I've watched claim crazy battery life like 5.5 hrs screen on time and that this is the best performing phone available. Looks really nice design wise but I'll wait a other month to see how the reception is after the initial oh and ah phase has worn off.

[@TheDark-Knut]

Had the Note 4, jumped to S7E and now eagerly waiting to jump back to the note 8!

[@tiburonroano]

that moment you realize the fingerprint reader on the S8 is in the SAME spot the heart rate monitor on the S7 was that you used to take selfies with.

[@jholloredondo7760]

Pocketnow: "We need more likes on our vids!" Jaime: "Don't worry my man" "I'm Jaime Rivera" *Gets 100000 likes*

[@hang10wannabe]

Yep, got an s8 regular at launch and have loved it. While people keep saying the battery is small, compared to my Galaxy S6, this phone lasts forever for me based on my use.

[@LucidAnomalies_]

You can really extend the battery on the S8 by revealing Developer Options and disabling background processes and checking the option of closing each app after you've backed out of it. standby time greatly increased.

[@saqibijaz9465]

Excellent effort and elaborated very well.... Keep it up .....

[@0M1995]

This phone is great but I'm going to wait the Note 8 for maybe better audio quality, larger battery and 6GB of RAM with hopefully flat screen no hate on the edge.

[@Felipaugustoex2612]

Excellent review as aways, Jaime! Very informative and well filmed scenes. Keep up with the great work!

[@learzetur6]

I went to AT&T just to hold it and I does feel like a really futuristic phone and even though I know it's not a huge upgrade from my S7 I really wanted it just for the feel in the hand! Great job Samsung

[@kurtis1151]

I don't know why people are saying battery life isn't great. I've been using my S8 for almost a week and I've had over 6.5 hours of screen on time multiple times.

[@milagrosmanrique8000]

Nice work guys, remarcable as always. I've checked lots of youtube review channels and yours it's definitely among the best 5!

[@89boopathy]

If the brand new flagship phone is laggy then what's the point in calling this phone a flagship..

[@eurosonly]

89boopathy it's got the most amount of features. Lag isn't a feature. It's a side effect of to many processes taking up your RAM

[@DeepteshLovesTECH]

89boopathy atleast it has the features. It lets me do a freakin ton of stuff that other manufactures either don't provide or plain rip off touchwiz. A little lag is ok if it lets me do so many things that your fav flagship can't even do yet it has only little difference in performance.

[@abdullahamer6969]

89boopathy Because most people don't mind the additional 1 second it takes to load an app. But most people do love the stellar design, brilliant camera and gorgeous display.

[@robglobal1]

89boopathy the s8 is def not laggy. I haven't even had any lag on the Note 5 or S7 edge. But any phone can lag even my girls 7plus lags alot. It helps to know how tech works and how to prevent lag which isnt even a big deal i dealt w it on my 5s til i learned how to fix it then prevent it. Use the S8 for yourself and you will see how great it is. Pretty amazing was Samsung has been doing for years now.

[@SuperNovaHeights_]

89boopathy Exactly! It's just a lag fest, not a flagship

[@WooReviews]

lol the airport security, stopped me and asked was that a note 7... everyone had been asking to hold phone ... people seem to love it

[@MLGSU5P3CT]

in the past, all my androids lagged.. now with the s8+, I can say I experienced no lag at all. smoothest experience! so happy with my purchase. sold my iPhone 6s to get the s8+

[@MLGSU5P3CT]

also the battery life is superb. I'm on the second day right now off one charge lol. took it off charge last night may 2nd at 10pm at 95%. Right now may 3rd, 49% left lol crazy

[@Le0Br4zUc4]

As always... great review. you touched on some very important aspects of the S8. Keep up the great work.

[@planchette]

I hate the way u set up your icons 😏

[@robs7527]

Your list of complaints and gripes doesn't include mediocre battery life?! I'm just saying I wish Samsung could address that issue for me.

[@Pocketnow]

Watch it again. Android 7.1 would primarily fix Battery life. ^JR

[@alexdiezg]

3000 mah is still low for that QHD+

[@wasabiGT]

Rob S mediocre battery? hmm mine lasts 12 to 16 hours on a charge.....full WiFi and Bluetooth to my wireless Jaybirds.

[@robs7527]

Pocketnow Thanks JR for clarification! I'm curious, do you turn off the multiple assistants activated by voice command? I turn off "Hey Siri" and I usually squeeze 5-6+ usage time hrs. on the 7 Plus My experience with Samsungs has always led to 3-4 SOT hrs. That's where my complaint is filed.

[@chaosy169]

If you're using the standard S8, 4-6 hours of usage is normal. S8+ gets you up to 6-8 hours(these are screen on times btw). Downscaling the resolution improves your screen on time. Also, if you have bloatware, you should turn them off.

[@williamprudencio337]

Great review as always Jaime! Thank you for doing such an awesome job with all your reviews and the pocketnow daily!

[@danielburgos3817]

I just got my S8+ 4 days ago and I got to say it's a beast I came from the 6 from Apple and I love it I don't understand what he means by not lasting a day with the battery I watched a ton of KZbin videos had the screen at the max resolution and about 70% brightness that's all you need honestly and I'm blown away I come back home with still 40-50% battery I seriously can't kill this phone

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

S8+ has a larger battery?

[@danielburgos3817]

JuanBagnell Not by much, plus it has to deal with even larger display. Everyone I talked to and seen reviews for said just get the S8+ it's worth it over the smaller s8

[@Beardedguycollective2]

nice in depth review especially ergonomics, i was very curious on that subject.

[@MattanYaniv]

very cool review, I loved your conclusion. the camera review was very detailed and beuty! and the phone's color is absolutely gorgeous! waiting for Galaxy S8 "After the buzz" episode.

[@adigashi8353]

I am considering on buying an Galaxy S8, so i watched a lot of videos. But your review was one of the best so far. Liked and subbed!

[@pinpola]

Thanks Jaime, always looking for your reviews!

[@TheDarkserpent]

Yes there is 10h + screen on time phone, it is called galaxy a9 5000mAh baterry, now 9:26 hours with 26% baterry left with intense use

[@PiOfficial]

the only reason it feels laggy is cause the animations are incredibly slow if you go into dev options you can change it to 2x speed and this fixes everything

[@rayreecustodio3346]

hi jaime this is a great review it is like the old pocketnow 1.nice cinematography 2.great review i love it i wish it is always like this

[@izayasanderson3471]

I'm suprised you've been having these problems. My s8 has been delightful, battery is incredible idk how but it is, I'm a teen and I'm on my phone 25/8 and it makes me through the day easily. Also, i found that as long as you dont have 1000000 apps on your phone it will work very quickly

[@victuringan1429]

I only have social media apps. And it slows down so bad

[@ChrisJohn_444]

One thing I noticed about the application scaling is that it cuts off the very edges of the content. The bigger battery in the s8+ is very welcome, though - gets me through a full work day of moderate use with about 50% remaining. And, both are definitely the best looking mobile devices on the market.

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

I'll be really curious if developers really do embrace the DIFFERENT curved screens. Like my games. They often have corner mounted menus or controls. To use the full display on the S8, the developer has to pull those controls in significantly, or tailor angle them around the S8 Specifically. The former is probably more likely, for better general compatibility with different aspect ratios, meaning there will be a display border of unused space. So bezels are "bad", but we'll be replicating that with unused display.

[@ChrisJohn_444]

JuanBagnell Good points. I agree about it being more likely that developers make changes that compromise in favour of generalizability. Samsung sells a lot of devices, so something will be done to accommodate them for sure. And, overlays don't intrude too much into game immersion, so I don't see it as as much of detractor as are large bezels.

[@MrChristopheeeer]

I don't feel that the fingerprint scanner is bad to use. I held the phone for half an hour and I didn't feel it being hard to reach or to differentiate from the camera.

[@Kyle-wb7wx]

Killer review. Long time fan here!

[@jsepol]

I see a Galaxy s8 and Lisbon, Portugal in the same video, I press like! :)

[@marqj301]

I'll wait and see what OnePlus has up their sleeves with their upcoming phone. If they can offer similar specs at a cheaper price (it will be cheaper), I'm going for it especially if it has front facing speakers and a fingerprint embedded in the screen. The last feature is what Samsung wanted to add to the S8, but was forced to move it to the back at the last minute ( that's what I was told).

[@randomroh]

Spot on review of the Galaxy S8. The software does feel like a Bloat Load with stutters across the UI (even without syncing Gmail accounts / contacts / Ims).. nothing!

[@Nerdburger85]

The lag/stutter is the only thing holding Samsung/android back, this is where the iPhone beats Samsung galaxy, the iPhone is really smooth

[@jmsantiago1]

Nerdburger85 iPhone, OnePlus, Pixel, Huawei, even fucking HTC has smoother performance.

[@robglobal1]

Nerdburger85 speak for yourself my 5s was horrible and my girls 7plus has many issues as well yet my Note 5 and S7edge are amazing and the S8 has been amazing so far as well although I don't own it I'm just testing but might get the plus version or wait for Note 8 or V30.

[@charbelbasso]

abcdefg what a fucking liar😂

[@lilgman191]

Android phones doesn't lag. Samsung touch wiz has a history of lag. The s8 does not lag, I own one and it can stutter a tad. It's not the same as lag. The phone is very fast all the time. He said stutter but people assume its lag, and the stutter is soft, minimal and rare. Ex closing a app is fast but sometimes it will stutter while maintaining the same speed. That was fixed with this update. So far so good. super smooth

[@jmsantiago1]

lilgman191 we have to see how it ages, hope you enjoy the phone

[@demonwares]

I installed an S8 ROM on my Exynos S7 edge and see no lag (or bloat) at all. People really need to learn how great it is to install a ROM. Adaway alone makes root worth doing.

[@rednafi]

4:30 10nm processing node....means the gate length of the complimentary metal oxide field effect is 10nm. The processor isn't 10nm.

[@BESTNOODLEREVIEWS]

I was expecting the 2nd question to be "Are you THE Jaime Rivera??" Nice video. :)

[@keizersoze907]

Thanks for the real review. Appreciate it. The Samsung wagon is big and for once having someone call it for what it is is great. Almost but not quite

[@administrations-6680]

Mark Hense Bixby actually wears down on the phone performance of the phone. The software seem a bit on stable but if you disable it the problem is gone.

[@En4cer2K9]

What exactly are people doing with their phones? My S8 has never given me LESS than 6 hours of screen on time. Whether I'm playing music, social media, KZbin, or gaming, I can't kill the battery if I tried.

[@EvgenyGorshkov]

Great video. Really liked the presentation style. Keep up the awesome production. Waiting for Note 8.

[@Andre-xu9st]

You came to Lisbon? I recognized a few shots :)

[@tigortenorio8994]

I think Jaime prefered the G6 over the S8 based on the comments in both reviews, and I'm on his team. The S8 is the most beautiful smartphone ever made, bleeding edge specs and all of that, but I think that the G6 for a day to day basis, is the most enjoyable of the two.

[@lucinoorbegoso5785]

red tint yes and updated they say ... got mine but guess it's personalisation they claimed

[@Abufatoom2609]

After a long time of waiting, I return my S8+.samsung owe me a free unit

[@alexkwan3]

I like the direction Samsung is going in but they really need to address software flaws, like the bixby page on the left that lags when you swipe in, or the battery drain issues that most Android phones suffer from. The software continues to turn me off and I'll be sticking with iOS, until something comes along that is worth my money.

[@leolandotan1020]

Hi! I'm quite confused and a little bit of information would greatly help. In my country the OnePlus 5T prices are at 64GB for $570 and 128GB for $650 while the Galaxy S8 prices are at 64GB for $654 and the Galaxy S8+ 64GB for $730. What should be the best choice? I'm mostly for the camera quality and longest software and hardware support. Thanks guys!

[@ijazzzali]

watching this on my laptop while lying in bed and one hand behind my head.

[@drzizoty]

Man I always liked your reviews. I have S8+ and everything you said is true 👍👍

[@vascopontinha7202]

I see you went to Lisbon. Hope you enjoyed it! ;) btw, "I'm Jaime Rivera" is becoming a name brand! ;) I love how you pronounce your name as is!

[@JFomo]

you guys should have uploaded this video in 18:9 aspec ratio

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

Oooh... We should do some ultra wide videos... I like that idea...

[@xSnowyCatx]

JuanBagnell or 4:3 videos to watch them on the iPad :3

[@pratiksaha6314]

Stop comparing the S8 with the iPhone. It's not nice. I understand that these are high-end phones​, but try to get the fact that these are representatives of different realms. This is what makes the tech world beautiful.

[@DormanRichardsAntonio1995]

What's that beautiful wallpaper with the orange color. Main reason I click on this video

[@foxhound143]

The phone is great but one thing I do not like is the software or the new touch wiz being exclusive to this phone only. Why can't they make it available to all galaxy models like what apple is doing with there phones.

[@Andressangame]

I'm Jaime Rivera and you're watching Disnney Channel

[@Daniel-fv1ff]

you know the fingerprint​ scanner works when your wearing sunglasses as well. why isn't that your favourite feature of the fingerprint scanner?

[@ikuraf87]

Can we tap the "Home" button even when the screen is off? Just to activate the screen..

[@jeneralgod]

Far Rookie you can even apply pressure to it as well

[@LJLMETAL]

The S8, and S8 Plus sound like great phones, but I'm a Note Series fan. However, that 6.2", Super AMOLED Display sounds extremely tempting. ☺

[@BransonWeather]

I'm a Samsung fan. But, even though I loved the operation of this phone and the screen had a beautiful display. This phone is tiny. I also felt like the phone would break if I was grip it to firmly. I also didn't care for the haptic in screen home button. it's nice that you can swap the the hard buttons, even though I believe the back button should remain on the right. Not the left. my 2 cents. I'm gonna wait for the Note 8

[@ahmedshams8807]

Those sunglasses looks horrible

[@Kyle-wb7wx]

Ahmed Shams I liked them.

[@webmasale]

Taste is taste said the old lady and ate a spoon of snot.

[@western-oud1898]

Ahmed Shams..yep got to agree....Aviator style sunglasses are the way to go

[@ellulturner]

I didn't notice them

[@ahmednajeebbutt]

Rocky Sky Force

[@freexa]

How is it that you drop every single phone you review?

[@ProWrestlingGamer]

So many people saying 6gb of ram is overkill and that for 4gb is enough. Jamie said the UI is. ram hog. Reality sucks doesn't it people in denial? This is why I'm waiting for the Note 8 and hoping Samsung catches up in the ram department and adds at least 6gb of ram!

[@noir1]

I wonder how long software updates will take. If history has taught us anything...

[@josephharvey1762]

I love how people bash the OnePlus 3T for being 1080p and then never take the S8 out of FHD 😂

[@hugopnabais]

You took those photos in Portugal :)

[@MarvinNeumannOfficial]

great review!

[@CGPT76]

Why the pictures from Portugal!! Wore you in Portugal? If so, how did you like it?

I honestly wish that the field of view for the front-facing camera was even narrower. Wide-angle lenses make portraits look awful.

Skipping this one and waiting for the NOTE, since Samsung has more time to polish it. Bixby will be ready from the start and fully functional. Probably we're going to have 2 lenses (dual camera) if not an upgrade in megapixels. As well other features worthy of a Note phone.
