      Except in Pixel it won't affect much since 15 mins of charge will give you 7 hrs of battery.
      So you won't really need to use charger and headphones simultaneously.

    @dallasmed65 7 лет назад +460

    That's crazy. A couple years ago we would have praised this phone for having an almost full front display. Now just by seeing a few, if any bezel is a hair smaller, it's worse.

      Dallasmed65 I don't mind the bezels on the XL, but wow why didn't they go 18:9 on the smaller one. So much wasted space.

    • @rodrigofigueiredo
      @rodrigofigueiredo 7 лет назад +3

      You've said it right, a couple years ago it would've been praised because there wasn't any other phone with better bezel-less design back then. This isn't the case now.

    Why is dropping the headphone jack becoming a mainstream thing!?! Most people are still using wired headphones. I just don't get it.

    • @HovercraftEDM
      @HovercraftEDM 7 лет назад +57

      issaciams You have to take into account how big 3.5 mm is inside a smartphone. Smartphone manufacturers could use that space to do so much more valuable things like expand their battery, make their phone more compact, or fit the screen's display drivers in a better place to further minimize their phone's bezels. Not to mention how much easier water sealing smartphones is without the jack and the convenience factor of one day living in a world where connecting to your computer or phone or whatever for file transfer or music or whatever all uses the same port. All that just by removing a 3.5 mm jack and just including a dongle in the box. A dongle people are just going to plug their headphones into and completely forget about. Seriously guys, it's not a big fucking deal at all and the benefits faaaar outweigh you having to remove your dongle from your headphones every time you want to plug the aux cord into your phone.

      Hovercraft and yet the LG V30 still has a headphone jack while having tiny bezels, water resistant, Hifi DAC, decent battery, dual Camera, fingerprint sensor, and is even MORE COMPACT than the P2 XL . It's a shame Google got rid of the jack on their phones but has no Acceptable "Valuable Things" to make up for it. Pfffff

    • @vinyltopia8989
      @vinyltopia8989 7 лет назад +18

      They think we're stupid , so you then go and buy their dumb airpods and give them more marketing. I have a s7 edge, it has a headphone jack , I use my earbuds daily , but also have a pair of wireless headphones and are able to plug e'm in or use without, it's very convenient, I don't know why Apple started that but it was a dumb move!!!

    • @issaciams
      @issaciams 7 лет назад +4

      Hovercraft I think it has more to do with pushing consumers to use Apple wireless earbuds. Trying to make more money off people who use Apple products. The last thing I want is for other companies such as Samsung to follow in their footsteps, at least not until wireless ear buds come way down in price.

      @OTPulse 7 лет назад +16

      Joe Halford : I'd rather a 10mm thick phone with huge battery & Jack than this thin garbage they keep spitting out. It has nothing to do with design. It all about a smaller phone uses less materials & less materials cost less to make then they falsely claim its revolutionary to justify their bullshit price gouging every year.
      Don't fall for it. It's all a con to make more money by making thinner phones they think they can justify selling us less phone for more $$. Soon we won't even have a USB/Lighning port to save a few more cents per phone.

    Personally, I think too many people are making a big deal about the design. I'm a more practical guy, so here are some things I care about
    1. Stereo speakers, I will use these daily, thin bezels be damned
    2. The placement of the fingerprint sensor isn't stupid
    3. Stock android, which isn't unusably bloated
    4. AI like crazy and Google now improvements, seems like they're focusing on user experience not a spec sheet circle jerk

But no one has said shit about the Iphone X's large side bezels. Personally I could care less about bezels. If the phone runs good thats all i want.

    @kootahaitoo 7 лет назад +567

    Companies wanna remove headphone jack for which they give reasons -
    1.Saving space for battery and other components.
    2.Transitioning into future of hearing gear.
    3.Encourage their in-house products like expensive bluetooth earphones and headphones.
    But are neglecting the needs of consumer.If you guys want to remove headphone jack , for which there is still no reliable alternative as -
    1.Bluetooth gear still has connectivity issues.
    2. One more battery to charge and take care of.
    3. You can not use headphone and your charger at the same time(Good luck watching TV series and movies on that QHD screen).
    4.3rd party availibility on USB-C headphones is still not impressive and highly overpriced.
    For a good transition companies should at least consider these steps-
    1.Providing at least a decent quality USB-C earphones in box.
    2.Two USB-C ports.(Not gonna happen anyway).
    They want people to get used to future without even providing a suitable ground for them.

      It's pretty stupid that phones are losing the 3.5mm jacks, BUT if you are going to sit down to watch a show or movie, then the RIDICULOUS dongles aren't really that big a deal. Still annoying, and not preferable to just having two ports, but not a huge deal for me at least.

      I don't get the love for stereo speakers since your phone is mostly used when you're mobile and on the go. This means your the douche not using his IEMs in public. At home I can link my phone to my Bluetooth speaker which sounds way better than these stereo speakers.

    • @zachsny23

      That's what really bothered me. It was like Samsung's marketing from the S5 to the S6. Flaunt their competition for lacking in something (water resistance in this case), and then end up getting rid of it themselves. I'm also an Apple fan, but have no issue in saying that the Note8 is (personally) the most beautiful phone of 2017. Heck, even the Note7 was my favorite phone of 2016 minus its one flaw. Really disappointed in Google on this one.

I would agree the design on samsung s8/note 8 is slightly better than the iphone X only bcoz they decided to leave the top notch, but as a best phone of 2017 thats still up to debate. Even iphone 8+ is a beast in terms of performance (set aside that old design.)

    Do companies not realize that bluetooth headphones are just not good enough yet to ditch the headphone jack? You have to charge them forever, the sound quality is not as good as in the wired ones and they're more expensive. The headphone jack might be old technology, but it's still the most perfect solution, they're ditching it before they even have a better alternative.

    • @BigVolucris
      @BigVolucris 7 лет назад +8

      Realistically, the majority of people are not walking around with flat response studio headphones to listen to music on their phone. The quality of sound between wired and wireless is not that different anymore. The thing is, just most bluetooth headphones are shit because the drivers and design are cheap shit. Most people are walking around with IEMs. Which inherently don't produce the same level of quality as muffed open or closed back headphones would. I don't think the removal of the headphone jack is that big of a deal, you're not getting a significant drop in quality, as the quality you're listening to isn't great to begin with as the built in amp drives in the phone already suck ass as well. Third party companies already sell lightning splitters for Apple products. Lightning -> 1/8" out and power for charging. So it's not like there isn't ways around it if you ABSOLUTELY need an 1/8th jack.

      Fulckkckc / it's more a practical approach, not everyone cares about brrzels, some might even like them to have something to grip on. Also with the smaller display size, the phone is not too big either. Look at the iPhones, having large brrzels and are very very successful. Less brrzels does not automatically mean better user experience

It's a shame because even if I got big hands, I really like the feel of a compact phone so I probably won't be buying either of the two

      I mean...the wrap around screens on the Galaxies are neat, but how usable is that screen space? I also had an AWFUL time with accidental touches on the edges of my s8.

      Not as long as Samsung keeps adding extra bloat to their devices, duplicating Google services. It does nothing but increase the wait time for any bloody updates. To be honest, I'd prefer smaller bezels too, but there is a LOT that I am willing to accept for a pure Android experience without any extra garbage on top.

      Samsungs bixby, messages, call log UI are annoying as hell. I'm surprise no one talks about that. You're in the recent calls, you want to click on a contact to call them back but when you click it opens up another option for you to call or text. I just want to "CALL" someone back from the recent call history list and it's giving me options whether i want to text or call. Horrible design. And yes, I know you can swipe to the right to make a call, but who the hell wants to swipe when a tap is faster. That's why I could never go back to samsung.

    U know how phones have stages of exterior design and later on the stages they improve?, well, google didnt go past the first 1. This shit looks like a mock up of itself smh. How the fuck did they manage to make the screen bigger but decide to keep a considerable amount of bezels not only on top or bottom, but on the sides. It genuinely looks like a cheap Chinese phone imitating a v30 for like 60$. LG fucked over google xl design and kept the better one for their v30, smart LG.

    I see a lot of hypocrisy with all the reviewers.
    First of all the design is seriously bad.
    The squeeze although mentioned is not new but is not customisable and nobody complained.
    The photo search, yes was done on Google Goggles but recently brought back to life by Bixby, no mention of it.
    No headphone jack, pretty much everyone trolled Apple on it and now no complaints at the same level. Guess because Google did it and they always do it right, right?
    Now no wireless charging, actually it wasn't a big issue but then with no headphone jack, you won't be able to use and charge at all. Oh yes, we forgot about the wireless buds they are also releasing.
    And the price tag? No comments. I'm sorry this is probably the biggest let downs of the year. Guess I just had higher expectations and feel let down

      Samsung won't! Do you know anything about SAR Value related to phone radiation? Well Samsung has historically been the only smartphone company to try and reduce its device radiations! Every year, among all flagship smartphones, Samsung has the least US and EU SAR Values. LG has pretty low too. And it doesn't affect cellular connectivity at all. Infact the signal strength improves with that advanced technology. Apple is the worst in this department. Small children are getting nervous issues by using IPhones! You actually do need to have some ethical values and need to value customer satisfaction and safety over anything else to create a fan army. Samsung does! And new regulations mean every company measures the radiations in almost exactly the same way. So, there's no cheating there.
