The Samsung Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ (Plus) represent the most advanced Android smartphones on the market. The Galaxy S8 is not without it's quirks... It's got an unusual aspect ratio, lower than maximum screen resolution out of the box and no real enhancement to battery life (from the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge). That said the Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus are some of the more comfortable phones I've held. The change in aspect ratio give you a slender phone which still packs an enormous screen. The Galaxy S8 Plus has a 6.2-inch display and feels smaller in the hand than most 5.5-inch phones (including the iPhone 7 Plus and Google Pixel XL). The Samsung Galaxy S8 is likely the "screen champ" right now as well, with an amazing AMOLED panel and resolution up to 2,960 x 1,440 pixels. You will not be disappointed with the Samsung Galaxy S8 or S8 Plus. Still, the world of Android smartphones has advanced tremendously (especially in the $400 retail range) and I think many will find better value elsewhere. So what do you think, is the Samsung Galaxy S8 worth it's premium price tag?

@Hayden Carver they will still get features they will only stop getting new android versions

I mean it's been like that since the S5 or S6 I'm not sure😑
Then your monitor what?
Does it suck? - No
Saved you 12 minutes. You're welcome.
Chelsea Carr Thanks. 😂😂. I m just tryin to start watchin it
Thank you for saving my 12 minutes☺️🙏🏻
I guess everyone has a different experience. I've had the S3 and S6 and I've had zero problems other than battery life. I'm picking up my S8 today :)
Am still using my S4, no problems at all except for the battery but it happened just a year ago.
Chelsea Carr Yeah, for those butthurt iSheeps
I switched to the s8 from the ipod touch 5 so I'm not complaining.
Dylan Brocchini-Rose respect
what do you think about the s9 and s9+?
Same I have a IPod touch 5 rn and I'm thinking of buying the s8
I had an iPod touch 5, but it broke last November and I'm considering getting a phone soon.
😂
Wow, watching him call the bezels thin in 2019 is funny 😂
Bet you have a notch phone 😂😂😂
@@nauman.ashraf. nope, Galaxy forever
Especially in 2020 with the new note 20
ok
@@cadenmam3853 ok
Correct me if im wrong, but they put out those warnings for brightness before the whole note incident. It's not a lack of confidence, its a genuine warning because people like better battery life, and it also warns you that is can cause eye strain.
AyoBrandoh nobody corrected you cuz you were spot on, lmao
Wait, so lower brightness causes strain or high brightness?
AyoBrandoh, nevermind I just saw that part in the video after I wrote this comment.
IlIlI too much bright and too low bright is not good for the eyes. Straining your eyes with too low bright is not also good because you are trying to see the text on your phone even it is really hard to see.
Anything too much is not always good :)
Yes, I like those warnings. It's smart
The warning about the battery life is saying that it'll drain faster... not that it's life expectancy is less...
Also, they used slightly smaller batteries *because* of the note 7 issues... and these advanced warnings about battery life and optimization are to squeeze more usable time out of a slightly smaller battery.
the warning is just with the new update android 7.0 on my s6 edge, he is not even trying to find out, is like he got pay to talk trash about the phone even before he got it he was complaining about it
SirFrag32 these are lithium polymer batteries hook one up to something and discharge it at a faster rate and then see what happens for yourself. Shitsung themselves are not confident in their products but they want you to pay for them still.
mukusman Wow, that was pretty creative... unlike Apple for the past 8 years.
The question is why that warning appears in the first place. No other phone manufacturer has done this... Kinda makes me subconsciously think its gonna break if used at max brightness
Still using my S8+, and loving it.
Verizon keeps wanting me to trade it in on the S9+. Why? This phone is still working fine.
And the latest update.... awesome.
Yeah s8 is still amazing was considering it before I got my s10e
@@uno9331, now I'm getting a pinkish color toward center of the screen, and down the edges. Like a thin pinkish line. Barely noticable, but noticable. My wife has the same phone, but doesn't have this problem yet. Probably something covered by my warranty.
Still love the phone.
I got s9 cause it's faster like really fast
@@colonel9990 Yeah I have the exact same lines it's weird right? 2 months later has there been developments for you
@@Frank-jg4tq Unfortunately that happen's ALL THE TIME with AMOLED displays. I've been a Galaxy user since the S3...also the Note line, and almost every one of them develop burn in at some point in their life span.
i just converted to an s8 after strictly only using the iPhone, and i don't think I'm going to use an iPhone for AWHILE. this phone is fantastic! it blows my mind everytime i fuck around with it. so glad i made the switch.
apollo gutierrez making the jump today buy the s8 today. Giving up my iPhone 6s. It’s weird and I’m nervous.
S8/+ are slow as shit
apollo gutierrez
What did you like more vs Apple ?
Same I job to the s8+ from a 7plus
I switched and 3 days later returned it to go back to Apple. Android sucks
The thing with the brightness bar is also in the s7. Its gets red to warn you that it will consume more battery and that it can strain youre eyes. Thats why it gets red.
My S6 has that ever since I updated it to Nougat.
Might Guy thank you. I think there was just a little bit of iPhone bias. just a bit.
Might Guy It is also in s6 edge plus it warns that it will affect your eyes if you keep brightness high for long time
Well duh, it's like any car.. if you keep pushing it to it's limit, it won't stay good for a long time
So then why don't they just neglect it?
The issues said are all manageable. That's why it's an android. YOU CAN CUSTOMIZE!
Kyle Joshua Marasigan Exactly what I thought. If anything the real issue is the single speaker.
Ronnie Carroll who said something about customising your phone all day??
Ronnie Carroll took me 15 seconds
you cant even really customize anymore, i will never buy a another samsung after the s7 locked bootloader.
OP is obviously very biased towards the S8, S8 provides that option to push for maximized customization and truly personalize your own device. Whats wrong with that? it gives new benchmark device users an idea on how their phone operates. Some users may not even know that turning on brightness on max could effect their battery life, educating them by displaying a simple warning is just a friendly reminder and could be educational to most minorities. what the fuck is this guy complaining about? Any small innovation is still an innovation, isn't that what android is all about? at least its better than apple marketing outdated technology. and yes, with new technology, comes with high price. Is not for everybody, but it sure is better than buying an iphone for around the same price.
just got the s8 probably 2 hours ago and the video aspect ratio has been fixed, this is probably super old news to everyone but I just wanted to say coming from an iPhone user, having the whole front be a screen is stunning!
Hayden Benninghofen How are you liking it now a few months later compared to iPhone?
Thinking of making the switch as well. I have an iPhone 6 I've had an iPhone since the iPhone 5 came out. But I really love the way this phone looks and the features it has.
Daniel Rosas did
You switched it?
I have iphone 6+ and im thinking to buy s8
Nikola V my friend had a iphone 6 and switched to the s8 and loves it
Alex A S8 is trash stick to the IPhone if you will even listen to my opinion I generally don’t want Samsung.
APPLE : Can I use your homework to kind of help me on the essay
SAMSUNG : Sure don't copy it though
APPLE : ......
It's David no it's because the iPhone x and 8 both have the same screen glass from samsung
XboxPlays742 - MC and More So just because apple uses gorilla glass 5 they are copying Samsung?
It's David No ! What I think XboxPlays742 means is that Apple asked Samsung to build and install the panel in the iPhone X . Also that was my point in the first place
Costa Coffee I see.
It's David that's what I meant
The brightness warning is on all galaxy devices that got the most recent update. It's not just for s8...
Stone 97 i didnt get it on my s5
what i thought too
Stone 97 Yes I have it also on my s7e
That's because the S5 is obsolete. You are probably not even on the latest android software xD
He made it sound like you were damaging the phone or reducing its lifespan which is not true. As most people know the brighter the display the more batter power you use therefore you will need to charge it more often. You technically would be reducing the actual battery lifespan but not the phone itself. Batteries are cheap compared to the cost of a new S8.
One would think after all that unboxing this guy might know resolution downscale is a brilliant idea cause no one needs 4k for texting, tweeting or spotify.
WELL SAID!Lew is really acting like anti-samsung.thats because he surely knows iPhone 7 got beaten by the s8
Oscar Arzaluz no one needs hd on a phone. 😂🤣 unless you're looking at a video
Congrats, this is the stupidest comment I've ever seen. You can text and tweet on a monochrome LCD display too. But we don't use those anymore because people want pretty, high=resolution user interfaces. Nobody in their right mind is going to choose to make their phone look shittier by turning down the resolution.
DeFy Noah You need to go back to school, screens are based on, isoptics and panoptics for perfect eye acuity.. which this device exceeds by a huge marging.. the only moment you can take advantage of those numbers here, is while playing off focus HiRes media.. designed to have the phone located at 2 inches from your face which account for less than 0.1% of the usage and content all around.
probably most usefull for VR, which is probably the reason they put the high resolution display on it even if its not driven at that resolution during normal use. Would not be surprised if it automatically increases the resolution if you launch a VR application.
I remember few months ago my friend bought s8+ and holy shit when i touched and saw that display i fell in love with it
Nikola Jankovic bruh same
I bought one yesterday. Crap!
I think imma switch to Samsung way cheaper and looks so much better than iPhone shit if only apple made the notch sooner I would of stayed but they expensive af now might have to switch to the s8
@@sikskulll I got mine yestersay even though the s9 is out but oh well 🤠
@@sunflower7874 the s9 is much more expensive
Dude you sound like you hate the device. The S8 is currently the best phone out there as far as I know. You always have some kind of issue with the phone. But when you review other phones, you don't critique them the way you critique this phone. Idk, it just seems unfair to samsung when it's currently the best phone out there.
Patrick James he doesn’t hate it he’s just honest
I believe he even said in another video it's his daily driver.
Because iphones are better, just look... less problems unlike android phones
And plus android always crashes A LOT! Hahaha seriously you guys can’t denied that(yeap iphone DO crash but sometimes)
Amirul Mirul I had Android crash on me once other than that I never had any problems
I'm happy they have the high performance button, if I'm playing a game and it lags I can decrease resolution. No phone has ever done this before.
Edit: Y'all can atop telling me that other phones have it. I know now
Denham Varas-Curl huawei have done it before 😊
Denham Varas-Curl I'm pretty sure a lot of phones have it, my old HTC has it. it's in developer mode, just hit High Performance mode
ikr! it's such a smart thing to do
Denham Varas-Curl It doesn't work like that. You'll only have the option to increase the brightness and resolution to 2K.
Denham Varas-Curl And once you'll apply. Everything have to be restarted.
Why did you delete the video about S8 that you posted 3-4 days ago! I noticed buddy! I noticed!

When watching on youtube you can zoom in on s8 lol
Samsung and Apple should just team up and be called Sapple or something and make the best phone ever...... idk it's 2:30am and I'm tired.
Bill Crosco Maybe they should be called "Sampple"
if you've ever done any research at all, steve hated samsung. samsung hates apple.

Most people who have iPhones love it because is simpler than android. If you know how to optimize your android device it never gets laggy or slow, is just that people is too lazy to do even that, get the fuck out that laziness and think.

Still love my S8! It's fast, battery life is still really good and the screen is awesome.
Is it just me or does the s8 looks way better than the note 8?
it does, it looks sexy
I like the Note 8 better, but maybe that's because the rectangular design better than the softer curves
Ayush Chauhan just you
Ayush Chauhan I prefer the S8 curves
Ikr i have the orchid grey its great note 8 looks weird
Such a weird title, Does it suck? That title would make sense if the Galaxy S8 had been getting critical reviews. Take for instance Mass effect Andromeda, which had been receiving many critical reviews. It would make sense to have a title called "Mass effect Andromeda does it suck?" Since most people are probably asking that exact question. However when you have an smartphone which has been the top android device(revenue wise) for years, it just seems odd to have that as a title. It's like saying "The iPhone 8(or 10 whatever)how bad is it?"
Taon Sauls clickbait, maybe??
Lou has done a series for a while called 'does it suck'. he actually did one on a Dyson v8 slim vac which... you know.
it's a series

Dude you are complaining about things that are not exclusive to the S8. Samsung has that screen res message on the Nougat software in general. On my S7 Edge it gives the exact same message. it also starts in 1080p. But you can change the phone res as soon as you get it. Not calling you a hater, but you are hatin lol

The title is a nice click bait. Which is better, giving more screen which could put two black bars while viewing youtube OR removing headphone jack in the name of futuristic design?
Jayan Kalarickal finally, some one with brains
I have no idea what you're trying to say, but you still get more viewing room with this phone, than of phones that are the same size.
As far as removing the headphone jack, that is a farce. I'll stick with a headphone jack, thanks. The quality loss from (even good) bluetooth headphones isn't worth it with current tech.
insecure much?
Petar Miskovic how is what he's saying insecurity?
The headphone jack thing isn't relevant. The point is that the screen aspect ratio is stupid. Not to mention the bad placement of the fingerprint sensor next to the camera lens.

3.14159265359 PI ❤❤
I know right. He's complaining about battery size, but not about the relevant, which is battery life. If battery life is better than S7 edge for instance, then who gives a fuck if the battery's smaller?
Also with the screen aspect ratio, CZcams videos are going to look fine, but watching movies on it will be even better now that the black bars are smaller because the screen is wider. What I'm trying to say that he was only giving the negative side of things without even considering the positive, which just makes it obvious that he just wanted to give a negative impression of it.

With what you said about the screen resolution not being at the highest out of the box, that is how ALL Windows-Running laptops are. Samsung balanced battery & performance. Windows also balances battery and laptop performance. If you want maximum laptop performance, you must change the setting to get the advertised performance. Likewise, to get the "x hour battery life", you must change the setting. Samsung was simply putting a balance between performance and battery life in order to satisfy MOST users.
lots of difference between phones and laptops, my friend. plus Microsoft is not doing anything for laptops that's up to the manufacturers and resolutions are maximum out of the box.
Shawn Fernandes All laptop versions of windows allow you to choose between battery & performance. That is the same as what Samsung is doing.
funny how you try to make this "feature" better by explaining how a shittier device is handling the same problem..
haha what? i've never seen a windows laptop that doesnt use its full resolution by default. you can decrease it if you want, but the option to do so isnt even in the battery/performance section. and even the "power saver" option doesnt affect screen resolution
Ethan Reinsch why not set it at the highest setting it has to offer out of the box , and give customer an option to extend their battery life by lowering all the performance. 2 different option , but fairly same outcome . That's what unbox therapy is trying to say -_-
I watched this and because of it I bought one. Thank you so much for doing the video!
Using this phone for almost two years... haven't faced any issue that you pointed out. And have never felt that the fingerprint scanner is out of place. Its a little getting used to, that's it. That's the problem with this generation. Everyone wants everything tailor made for them. Great phone and not planning to change any time soon.

no one cares about the note 7 issue anymore.
All Black Everything Says no one ever
I wouldn't say that no one cares, but some people and reviewers are definitely giving it more thought than they need to.
After such a *horrible, business damaging* mess up, there's no way that Samsung is *not* gonna run every single test that they can to make sure that their (pretty much) main phone is gonna run perfectly. They can't afford not to. After those incidents they probably have the most thorough battery checking procedure than any other phone maker.
Plus they extended the release of the S8 after the exploding incidents, so clearly they ran tests and made changes so that this release goes smoothly.
good one😂
All Black Everything I doubt the people who's shit caught on fire or injured by the phone makes such a comment
All Black Everything i wonder what phone you have😂

Already 2019 and this appears in my recommendation but still broke asf
Placing the new S8 on the "does it suck "series is real mistake.
Someday someone will find this comment.

Borislav Gridnev Heyhey
Minkovah Hexover Found it. Do I win anything?
I did
This was posted on my birthday and now I own an s8 haha
nice
I'm planning on getting a refurbished one on eBay because they are cheap!!
I love how he says you can spend alone time with your s8,
You pervert 😂😂😂😂😂
You're the pervert for thinking wrong. Don't you use your phone while you're alone. That's probably what he's trying to say. Uncultured swine.
Apple has ordered 70 million OLED curved (samsung galaxy edge)panels from Samsung for upcoming iPhone 8.
yup
Concept drawings look almost identical to this phone so I'm pretty sure it's not a rumor. On the other hand it's sad that Apple got so low that they started copying Samsung that was inferior to Apple not so long ago... Even my pro apple everything friend told me that iPhone 7 sucks and she wouldn't buy it again. When someone like that comes out of the Apple fanboy(more like fangirl here) you know it's getting bad...
radcliff7608 Sources ?
z126br every tech site. Samsung Apple etc.
radcliff7608 I hope Apple has perfected the screen. I hate oled screens. Burn in time, over saturated, colors non realistic. Whites are blue looking. I hope they fix it
What's wrong with these idiots saying that he's an Apple fanboy? He listed pros and cons, something wrong with that?
Ginny The Kiddy yeah he didn't love it with out question so he's a hater and apple fan boy and needs to check his smartphone privilege.
those people are either haters or Samsung fuckbois, like they didn't see how he sarcastically reviewed the red I phone days before, they must be brain dead not to see his sarcasm on that video. SMH seriously
Ginny The Kiddy they're android peasants they don't like to hear the cons
Im Samsung fanboy, I use IPhone because of my iphone plan i did which i regret a lot. But I think this is a good review. Its very honest.
You don't think the title is a little concerning? He opens up with - "Samsung Galaxy S8 - Does it suck?" The title itself screams bias....
Still using my S8+ in 2020 and still works like I just bought it!
Dude when the brightness warning comes up its talking about straining your eyes and making your battery low
Before making a review video, maybe you should be more knowledgeable on the topic. For instance, 80% of your video was software features which are already present in the S7 and S7 Edge due to the Nougat update; i.e. WQHD, Performance mode, +10% brightness, Screen filter, etc. Although you did mention some hardware components which is fine. Next time, try to focus your review more on things such as performance, hardware, camera and actual daily usage results such as battery, temperature and the alike.
Gave my iPhone 7 Plus jet black to wife and pre ordered the S8+ :-)
WiZe1972 good choice
WiZe1972 you're a smart man! Respect!
WiZe1972 u made the wrong choice
Rip
trinalmallard 04 As much as I love Apple products, the iPhone needs to get a major redesign. I like the direction samsung is going. plus, the gear S3 is way better than the apple watch. looking forward to the new iPhone to see if I jump back
Still using my 2 years old S8...still works perfectly
Watching on my S8 in 2019
The normal S8 is taller now
Still better than the ifruit phone
Spark99 Gaming lol
Spark99 Gaming Tell us that in September when the iPhone Edition pops up and all the S8s have been recalled due to batteryproblems 😂
O at least samsung is being innovative rather than ifruit's "innovative" way. lol "let's make a red color for this phone. this will change the world!" -ifruit
My question is why people buy a locked phone
Sadata Raju Delos Santos Stop using the word innovative. The original iPhone was innovative and was the buildingbrick for every smartphone ever since. Stfu Sheep
future is here S8. iPhone is still in 2014 in design section
iPhone 7 6.2 Inch wouldn't fit through the door because of the bezels.
The reason why apple's products shouldn't be leaked.
Saurabh Vishwakarma Oh future is ugly then
TeamHuisvlieg.AKA.RandomVEVO yup you are blind or may be you are iphone fanboy
Saurabh Vishwakarma No I used S7 edge
i just remembered that the s8 was pretty much the first flagship phone with tiny bezels
Samsung is honestly better than iPhone and I have an iPhone and I regret it badly so now I'm getting the S8
Bryson Hoaglin i’m getting the galaxy note 8, hope it’s good!
Same
I'm so excited I preordered the s8 plus
Adventure is Great That's cool man. Hope you enjoy your brand new s8 plus. I'm getting the S8 soon as well.
Maleek Diab awesome what color are you getting
idk, probably black! 😉
Maleek Diab Nice that's what I'm getting 😎
ok cool 😉
"Does it suck"?... well for 900$ it better do ...
sagar mishra its 750.
joe in us?
it's 750 for s8, 850 for the +.
Leon Camero and there is option 64 gb or 1... 256?
1:42 Nowadays, every major tech channel fits my S8 perfectly
the s9+ speakers are so so so good i personally don't need to use a bluetooth speaker anymore. even at high volumes the audio doesn't go at all crispy
Apparently you are not allowed to say anything bad about Samsung or give it any fair criticism in any way otherwise you're an "Apple fan boy" or "paid by Apple".
Yoshi M are you trying to get a job ?
Lemony Snicket Samsung fanboy spotted 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yoshi M well said
M8 well said
Yoshi M couldn't have said it any better
The whole point of Android is giving us various options...... Sooooo
If by options you mean iPhone clones ... sure. I've been with Samsung for generations of Android phones and only lose options in favor of a sleek iPhone competitor at every iteration.
Paul Meyer Samsung is the only Android manufacturer?
yeaaaa by not giving you what they actually advertise and what you buy for.......and if you use it, its a battery killer...
in 10 min the battery goes down 10% gg.
No No what Savage phone are you even using? Even a second hand android phone I got for like 40$ lasted a week when idle when I was out of town with just 5% battery loss and it lasts a whole day with medium usage!
When I got the phone oml the camera was the same as the s7 but even more amazing with it's enhanced features to edit etx
I'm still using my S8 in 2021. No way an iphone would last this long
If you have a case on the S8, for me personally atleast it helps you guide your finger to the finger print scanner so you fall right onto it automatically everytime, and there are also apps in the Google Play Store that allows you to remap the Bixby button.
