      The Note 8 cause it got that visor look with dual camera and the rounded edges make it hard the adore the s8/s7
      S7 for example was very very painful to say good-looking .The edges were excessively curved and the ICONS .God forbid.Something out of kids school book for learning pictures.
      That's so cartoonish although I hate it less now but it's still UGLY AS HELL.
      Note looks more classy and never ever disliked it until now.
      In love with XZ Premium despite the big Bezels.Guess I have a fetish for sharp edges !

    • @HopperDragon
      @HopperDragon 7 ปีที่แล้ว +20

      Missmethinksalot1 I've had one since launch and it's amazing. Coming from the v20, I thought I would be losing functionality with glance-able info when the screen is off, but nope AoD is awesome and even more functional, with full media control, etc. I thought I would be losing the added functionality of the second display in using the app shortcuts and contact shortcuts to really clean up my setup, but nope you get all that and more with edge display. I really thought I'd miss the replaceable battery, but that was just because my v20 died so fast I NEEDED to walk around with two batteries! With the s8 plus, the battery has absolutely blown me away. I'm a heavy user, lots of music and games and TH-cam and Bluetooth and GPS, and I often get over 6 hours. Also fast charge is way more noticable when that charge lasts significantly longer. BT 5.0 is great. The camera is amazing. The screen is amazing. Bixby is absolute garbage though, I have it disabled.... btw, really loved my v20, just been blown away with the s8.

      Had my S8 through to 2021. The battery was actually still okay on mine (could go through a whole day on one charge if I was just internet browsing). I could have easily kept it for another year but I really wanted something that had a good stylus pen support.

    • @sabr3T
      @sabr3T 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I still have my S8+ in 2021, and even though it was sent by my uncle, (which he used the phone a decent amount) it's still a beast. Absolutely love the performance. The only problem I have with it is battery life, though the charger that comes with the phone is amazing! Way better than the charger I got with my Motorola phone. I think I'll upgrade by November, I have my eyes on the Google pixel 6, the Iphone 11 the MI 11T, and the Moto G100. Maybe I'll even buy a better Samsung phone, as they look amazing from what I've seen with the Galaxy S8+.

      I think samsung wanted to use the Synaptics FS9100 which can read fingerprints even when 1mm under glass. But Synaptics didn't make it. They plan mass production of those sensors in Q2, which is obviously late for S8. Pretty sure Note 8 will use it.

To get back to the subject of the video, the galaxy S8 is a truly amazing phone and you illustrate this perfectly while also addressing that the S8 isn't perfect, and still has its flaws. Keep up the great work creating some of the best, if not the best, quality videos on youtube.

      Alejandro Gllrd I doubt the fingerprint sensor will be on the front, but rather in the middle of the back, like the pixel. Putting it in the front ruins everything they just did. I bought the S8, it wasn't worth the wait for the note and there's nothing wrong with the S8 that seriously bothers me.

    when my dad first got this phone back in 2017, i realized just how beautiful the build was. When he gave that S8 to me in 2019 as a replacement to my Note Edge, I again realized how beautiful the phone was. Even in 2020, even though I upgraded to the S10, the S8 still looks beautiful. Definitely one of the best looking phones of all time.

The fingerprint scanner is just so much quicker, especially for someone like me that keeps their AOD activated. I use this phone generally with two hands because I have small hands, but I don't need to when I unlock my phone. There are setting in the phone that are available for those that MUST have one handed use.

    • @lubb213
      @lubb213 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes but they still add bulk. No matter how thin the case is it just cant match a skin. The design gets lost with most cases, but skins can preserve or even enhance the design of the phone.

I had used it for five years until buying the S23 Ultra this year - it is performing well until now. I was happier getting the S8 than what I feel now about the S23. I mean grab both phones in your hands, you have to admit that S8 when released in 2017, was way ahead of its time.

    I find your impression about the fingerprint reader positioning very strange! I just received my Galaxy S8 yesterday. When I hold it in my not-so-big hand in a normal way, the fingerprint reader is right under the tip of my index finger. Actually, it would be so awkward if it was in the center and lower.
    Some people say you may put your finger over the camera and make it dirty, that's invalid too. 1. Don't forget about muscle memory, it will become second nature in a week. 2. Cellphone lenses are already dirty (in comparison to what we expect from a camera), because they don't have protection and are exposed to direct touch, so they should be cleaned before shooting serious photos, regardless of what the phone is. 3. I think cellphone cases (which many people use) will help us distinguishing fingerprint reader a little bit better, and/or protecting the lens from being touch.
    I think the only valid complain would be from left-handed users.
    And finally, don't forget it has iris scanner!

    • @bennettwaisbren
      @bennettwaisbren 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      SourceCZ normally I would agree with your sentiments about Samsung wanting to actively promote Bixby, but for god sakes dude... They launched an incomplete product. It doesn't have voice support yet. To many users it's going to be pretty useless until it's fully rolled out. If Samsung's going to release a half-assed feature and then force people to use it, I think that's pretty idiotic.

    • @tinglydingle
      @tinglydingle 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      SourceCZ I understand the business reasons for it, but it's still frustrating because it's so blatantly anti-consumer to deny owners choice about how they use their own device, particularly when it's through a software patch specifically designed to limit functionality. This is the kind of shit Apple is known for, and it's maddening to see a company whose products I used to love go down this route.

      Erik Johann Riconalla go for it. I had an iPhone 5s and switched over, and have owned iPhones since 2010. The Ui can be as simple as iOS or more complex if you desire. The edge display is really useful as you can keep apps you use often there at the side. The screen is fantastic and blows any iPhone out of the water (although the iPhone x screen is a bit closer) the apps available are pretty much the same as iOS.
