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 ^^

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! ^^

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

7 жыл бұрын

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

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.

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.

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.

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

Thanks Jaime, always looking for your reviews!

Killer review. Long time fan here!

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.

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

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

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

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

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!

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

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

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

great review!

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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.

Yo Jaime! Hows the palm rejection. I had zero issues with palm triggering on my Note7 but have had regular palm related misfires when I stepped down to the S7 Edge. Thanks!

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!

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.

Great video! How is your stand by time? I unplugged my S8 at 11pm at 100% and when I got up at 5:30am my battery was at 85%. I had the G6 for a month and a half and it was not like that.

what screen protector do you recommend?

nice video review I am very happy with my Galaxy S8!!!!!!!

Will this be the year i get off a Note 3? im tempted with a S8+ but holding off for a possible Note 8.

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

Nice Lisbon photos and videos!

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

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.

@jaimerivera @pocketnow what case were you using when you talked about using the case for the fingerprint? It looks really nice!

How long till the t mobile version will get 7.1 update? Other than a few minor things I love my s8

WHAT CASE IS THAT? CAN YOU GIVE A LINK?

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.

I'm in europe/germany and got the S8+ but Samsung removed the crop in feature for youtube videos here. Why? :(

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

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

do you use it on FHD or QHD???

I love the second question hahaha!

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

I love the new dbrand skin

I think this s8 no need to case and screen protector? Right?

which theme or launcher u use..?

Where can you buy an s8+ unlocked for retail price? Are the ones in the Samsung website locked? All I've been able to find is overpriced unlocked s8+ on Amazon and eBay.

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

should i buy this or wait for op5??

Jaime great review and definitely nice looking device but still not sold I'm glad with all the time and research before release and after release still tells me I made the right choice. I am holding out for Note 8 and definitely have a feeling it will be Great.Thanks so much appreciate all your great Videos Deb 👍

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!

Got this as my first Android phone the other day. Still getting used to it. Really like the widgets and layout he's got set up on that S8, particularly the ones showing performance metrics etc. Anyone know what they are?

Which game were you playing in the video?

You took those photos in Portugal :)

I live in Melbourne Australia and i don't know which colour to get on the s8+. it's either gold, black or orchid grey.

"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

I can't wait for pixel 2 man, I love that phone with the exception of huge bezels ofc.. might get oneplus 5 or moto z2 as long as it has insane battery and compatible with both gsm and cdma networks like my current pixel is

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+

I love that case! where can I get one?

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!

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

Can you tell me what case that is at 5:51?

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

beauty and the beast.

Whats the deal with the app icons with the white background?

can you do z review of the Samsung Level On pro headphones? I can see you wearing it every time

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.

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.

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

until the note 8, Samsung gonna beast it.

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).

My s8 has a gap between the screen and the frame on the lower right portion of the screen. I can even fit few millimeters of paper in it. has anyone got the same problem?

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

got my unit of s8+ from at@t. I have detected screen light leaking between the camera and the top border. got replaced unit and it has the same issue. I have replaced 3 units and all of them have the same problem. please, check all borders before you buy it. best buy also facing the same issue. to be able to observe that leaking, make the screen brightness at the highest level (white color) then go in a dark area.

how's​ the battery vs the op3t
