The only review which pointed out there is a whole new camera sensor. i like that. Everybody else saying that it has the same specs but not mentioning that there is a whole new fucking sensor!
Agreed I love being able to use bio metrics to log into ANY website instead of having to type a password every time if you don't want it to be saved and auto-filled in for anyone to access.
Garth St. Omer I think so too. First reviewer I heard say that. My favorite part about a Samsung's browser, is being able to download just about any video, on any site.
Documented my entire Summer of 2017 (multiple trips to go fishing in the mountains and a two-week seashore getaway) on my S8 Plus and it performed flawlessly. I filled the 256 gig micro SD card twice and I'm fulfilling family member's requests for saved video of the 4th of July picnic and those evenings we spent, as a family, on the boardwalk or those times we went to The Borgata in Atlantic City, New Jersey. As a non-techie I am very impressed with what the S8 Plus can do as it obviates having to carry so much equipment that I was accustomed to having on-hand just a decade ago. I did get an extended battery case for this smartphone which kept things going for an entire day of whatever was at hand.
This was a pretty thorough review. I like longer reviews because they allow for more elaboration on key points. The transitions (both visually and audibly) felt very smooth and natural. Looking forward to the next review!
I like the fact that this is one of the first outdoor reviews I've seen! Awesome scenery and great video, and good in depth details on all aspects of the phone! 👌
One of the Best reviews of Galaxy S8!! I have watched all the reviews probably!! But you pointed out pros and cons perfectly and your speech just awesome!! So simple review but strong words!!
Great review, I especially liked the comparison of the S8's camera with the S7's camera through the mention of multi-frame processing. Appreciate the more in-depth explanation of Bixby too since other reviews kind of brush over it since it's not fully out. Nice use of slow-mo cinematography on the close shots too!
Amazing review, keep up the good work the quantity of these reviews is getting better and better. I'm desperate for one but I just can't quite afford it.
I've watched several Galaxy S8 reviews, and this one is easily the best in terms of insights about the phone and presentation. I also like your new reviewer. Keep up the good work!
i've seen reviews for every single major reviewer, mkbhd, evan, esposito, verge, android authroity, casey neistat, dave lee, krystal key, engadget, everythingapplepro, etc. etc. etc. and this review by android central is by far the best review
Hey Daniel. Great video and I like the new format you guys are using. Great soundtrack and love the hd. I watch a lot of tech and you guys are definitely one of the top two out there ! Keep it up android central
The idiots that press the thumbs down don't get what it means. You don't hit the thumb down because you don't like the phone. The thumbs down means you don't like the video and it's presentation.
I love how all the Samsung haters are saying that, because this is a positive review, it means Samsung paid for it.....Yet they ignore the fact that this site gave the Pixel a good review too. Were they paid by Google also?
Great overall review! I really liked all the different photos and videos for comparison and being very unbiased! Great detail of pros and cons, lots of info, and thank you for 4K option, video looks gorgeous!
Android Central always relevant, awesome review as always and please don't stop feeding us with this kind of videos...We need them true as always...Keep up with your excellent work
In terms of charging, has it been announced what version of quick charge this phone uses? I know the 835 supports quick charge 4.0, but I doubt this phone will. Any thoughts?
I picked a good time to be a Samsung customer again. Last Samsung I owned was the first Galaxy, the Galaxy S. Since then I only bought Nexus. Since I can't find a Pixel anywhere, I went with this phone. My Nexus 6P has been cursed with the random reboots/freezing manufacturer issue unfortunately. Looking forward to a phone that doesn't do that twice a day. 😁
Android Central's reviews are very helpful and I've used them before buying phones in the last. Thanks for this video...also something positive about the video or the channel
you say the phone that don't take a bad photo now this is an understatementas Samsung S8 camera is above average and it's one of the best camera phone in market right now
I am a Samsung boy and have the s7 Edge right now after the Note 7 challenge. I don't know about the s8, I find it a beast with a beautiful display but otherwise a bunch of bad decisions for way too much money. Bixby button on the wrong side. Bad placement on the fingerprint reader. Just makes it not practical. I had a Huawei phone in parallel to my s7 Edge and it is so much more practical that I made it my driver. It is the little things, fingerprint reader is placed in a great location and it adds functionality that is very useful. Like getting the notification bar dropped down (And there is also a configurable button on the navigation menu that allows you to do that) and you can launch certain apps from there super fast. I know they say this reader can do that too, but you cannot reach it without moving the phone and then you still don't know if your finger is on the reader, the camera or the flash. The fingerprint reader is not indented so it feels just like the camera. The volume rocker is on the right side which is much better as more then 80% of smartphone users are right handed. Also, I don't know why, but Samsung phones start turning slow after a while. I just cannot justify spending this much money just for a pretty display. And now there is rumors that Bixby button cannot even be reconfigured. And again ... looking at the display you just want to buy it ... but there is more to it then just that for me now ...
Multi frame processing is NOT something completely new. Actually that's what Google uses on HDR+, but even better. It's important to note that HDR+ is NOT just a normal HDR mode.
5:57 nah, sorry but that's a crappy feeling. Samsung has sacrificed utility for aesthetic. The whole idea of "look, we know the location of the fingerprint is awkward and hard to reach, that's why we give you 2 extra (less-convenient) methods for unlocking your phone, yay!" is plain stupid! I was waiting for the S8 so bad, but the fingerprint is one of the key turn down for me :(
Do you think it is worth waiting to buy the S8+ when the full use of Bixby has been realised? You said that later on in the Spring, it will be rolled out?\ Also, is it worth holding out for a few months to find out how the battery lasts after 6 months?
Steven Juris yeah, that's true. Google actually managed to do it on Jelly Bean (there was an option to require a blink to unlock the device), but it was quite slow. It still wasn't 100% secure, but at least more than it was before that.
0:11 This was me trying to figure out my headline too ... except for like 5 hours. lawl
also: dope suit brah
4:23 that pocket pull!
Stealing some of these shots, FYI.
MrMobile [Michael Fisher] well I guess today is S8 day with so many people putting out their reviews !!
looking forward to buy this phone
this was some 2017 phone porn
What if I told you that Jason Statham had lost all his aggression and started making Android videos on RUclips?
Geoff Fieldew Or the villain father from Kickass lol
Or Hitman
agent 47
0:11-One of the best headlines I have seen for a phone review in the recent time. Android Central is really doing great!
The only review which pointed out there is a whole new camera sensor. i like that. Everybody else saying that it has the same specs but not mentioning that there is a whole new fucking sensor!
Abhinav Srivastava exactly! the sensor matters more than megapixels
Anthony Garrett Yes bro
Dank Eye Exactly!
Hugh Mungus Camera sensor
MKBHD mentioned it.
This is one of the best reviews of ANY product I have ever seen, professional, clean and on point !
Android central don't let this guy go
Eurgh really, this bloke is cringeworthy.
You have done a wonderful job here Daniel! This is the most detailed review I have seen of the S8.
Stellar review!!! And jacket!
ModernDad gahhh beat me to it
MrMobile [Michael Fisher] Classy - Being graceful to the competition. Nice.
"I don't care, I like it" Now why can't everyone have that state of mind? You're awesome bro.😎🤙🏾
they Samsung browser is by far my favorite browser. everything from the features to the intelligent UI is first class.
Agreed I love being able to use bio metrics to log into ANY website instead of having to type a password every time if you don't want it to be saved and auto-filled in for anyone to access.
Garth St. Omer I think so too. First reviewer I heard say that. My favorite part about a Samsung's browser, is being able to download just about any video, on any site.
Garth St. Omer yeah the Sammy browser is awesome
me too, It's very fast and compatible with adblockers.
great video, I love this guy's reviewing style and I liked the cinematics of this video, keep up the good work!
Documented my entire Summer of 2017 (multiple trips to go fishing in the mountains and a two-week seashore getaway) on my S8 Plus and it performed flawlessly. I filled the 256 gig micro SD card twice and I'm fulfilling family member's requests for saved video of the 4th of July picnic and those evenings we spent, as a family, on the boardwalk or those times we went to The Borgata in Atlantic City, New Jersey.

I did get an extended battery case for this smartphone which kept things going for an entire day of whatever was at hand.
finally a reviewer that knows what he's talking about specially regarding the camera.
wow! the way you presented is the most professional and fluent in tech channels. good job and i subscribed for your amazing work. keep going.
This was a pretty thorough review. I like longer reviews because they allow for more elaboration on key points. The transitions (both visually and audibly) felt very smooth and natural. Looking forward to the next review!
Canada represent! Awesome review Daniel Bader.
stere0xide good for him. Mobilesyrup has been trash since he left...
Jacket needs work though.
I like the fact that this is one of the first outdoor reviews I've seen! Awesome scenery and great video, and good in depth details on all aspects of the phone! 👌
by far this is the best review i saw for the Galaxy s8 plus on RUclips.
The production is really great and professional that it even feels like an ad.
Oh and the jacket too. Great review.
This guy is amazing, and the way he gives you an in depth take on the smallest of things makes this review darn impressive.
One of the Best reviews of Galaxy S8!! I have watched all the reviews probably!! But you pointed out pros and cons perfectly and your speech just awesome!! So simple review but strong words!!
This man does all your reviews from now on. A great all round review- beautifully shot and presented. Can i wait for the Note 8? Damn😣😣
Android Center don't let this man go cause i just love how he explain all staffs!
Next level review, Bader!
Way you described S8 + was cool. You nailed the outdoor shooting. Nice candid review.
This is best Samsung 8 video on RUclips with excellent commentary. Bravo mr. Bader.
Great review, I especially liked the comparison of the S8's camera with the S7's camera through the mention of multi-frame processing. Appreciate the more in-depth explanation of Bixby too since other reviews kind of brush over it since it's not fully out. Nice use of slow-mo cinematography on the close shots too!
Amazing review, keep up the good work the quantity of these reviews is getting better and better. I'm desperate for one but I just can't quite afford it.
Daniel - as always love the way you do Phone reviews and requesting you to do an in-depth analysis on BT 5.0 and its features
This guy is an amazing reviewer. Thanks for the excellent points that many other reviews don't cover
I've watched several Galaxy S8 reviews, and this one is easily the best in terms of insights about the phone and presentation. I also like your new reviewer. Keep up the good work!
i've seen reviews for every single major reviewer, mkbhd, evan, esposito, verge, android authroity, casey neistat, dave lee, krystal key, engadget, everythingapplepro, etc. etc. etc. and this review by android central is by far the best review
Best review ive seen so far bro! Your magnificent at it! Really good job! Cant wait to get my s8+ tomorrow!
Hey Daniel. Great video and I like the new format you guys are using. Great soundtrack and love the hd. I watch a lot of tech and you guys are definitely one of the top two out there ! Keep it up android central
The idiots that press the thumbs down don't get what it means. You don't hit the thumb down because you don't like the phone. The thumbs down means you don't like the video and it's presentation.
coldconfession13 I just gave your comment a thumbs down cuz this video sucks!
Wot. This is the only company that is positive. So take you, your iSheep, and the rest of your herd somewhere else thank you very much :)
i gave it a thumbs down because it's a shill review "idiot"
coldconfession13 yes i don't like this video especially the reviewer. he's a Samsung kiss ass. I'd expect more honest review from Android Central
For real. Calling touchjizz an amazing software experience. lmao
One of the best videos that I have ever seen on RUclips.... excellent.... covered all the areas of the phone.
It says android 7.1 on the spec sheet on Carphone Warehouse must just be 7.0 in the US
Do you know if the rumors are true? Is there a "three month return policy, no questions asked" on the Galaxy S8?
I love how all the Samsung haters are saying that, because this is a positive review, it means Samsung paid for it.....Yet they ignore the fact that this site gave the Pixel a good review too. Were they paid by Google also?
This was a beautifully rounded review... one of,if not the best,so far!!!Much appreciated!
excellent review as always!
Great overall review! I really liked all the different photos and videos for comparison and being very unbiased! Great detail of pros and cons, lots of info, and thank you for 4K option, video looks gorgeous!
Android Central always relevant, awesome review as always and please don't stop feeding us with this kind of videos...We need them true as always...Keep up with your excellent work
I think the editor forgot to color correct the clips at 6:53 to 7:02.
Great review thanks so much. Just ordered my Galaxy S8 yesterday and can't wait to unbox it. :)
In terms of charging, has it been announced what version of quick charge this phone uses? I know the 835 supports quick charge 4.0, but I doubt this phone will. Any thoughts?
This review is so much better than the one from android authority, well done!
THE BEST PHONE. Period
by far you hit a home run in this review.. the best of what ive watch..
Good indepth review, Pre-Ordered my S8+ here in the UK..
I picked a good time to be a Samsung customer again. Last Samsung I owned was the first Galaxy, the Galaxy S. Since then I only bought Nexus. Since I can't find a Pixel anywhere, I went with this phone. My Nexus 6P has been cursed with the random reboots/freezing manufacturer issue unfortunately. Looking forward to a phone that doesn't do that twice a day. 😁
Damn Daniel, you stepped your game up! Sick review.
Nicely articulated each n every features the device has.
what gear did you guys used to make this video? it's just awesome :)
danial u r one hell of a good reviewer, really enjoy your review.
Nice video...I like the different approach to the way the video is conducted...its interesting...Good Job Man
Great review Daniel but seriously man what's going on with your left arm? Nice look for the review too.
Android Central's reviews are very helpful and I've used them before buying phones in the last. Thanks for this video...also something positive about the video or the channel
I've had the S8+ for two days and I am very impressed. Bixby is usable and does not take over the phone like past SS apps.
You guys didn't do the phone any justice by making every shot in slow mo..
Great clear to the point review. So while we wait for Bixby to launch what else can we do with that button. Thanks
you say the phone that don't take a bad photo now this is an understatementas Samsung S8 camera is above average and it's one of the best camera phone in market right now
thanks guys for the awesome review! I'm getting mine Monday!
first video I watched from this channel,, amazing review,,, one more subscriber !!!
Very good video. Informative and I like how you explained multi-frame processing, good to know now that I have an S8 +.
I am a Samsung boy and have the s7 Edge right now after the Note 7 challenge. I don't know about the s8, I find it a beast with a beautiful display but otherwise a bunch of bad decisions for way too much money. Bixby button on the wrong side.

And again ... looking at the display you just want to buy it ... but there is more to it then just that for me now ...
So I'm not the only one who prefers to use the Samsung browser and gallery!
Good review. I subscribed.
Very nice Video, The way you sue the camera is honestly amazing it really represents the beauty of the S8, You sirs have won a sub!
Where is the 1000 fps super slow motion video recording feature ? I heard you saying it in your podcast .
Multi frame processing is NOT something completely new. Actually that's what Google uses on HDR+, but even better. It's important to note that HDR+ is NOT just a normal HDR mode.
The only review that mentioned the s8's "new" facelock isn't new...just improved since 2011
5:57 nah, sorry but that's a crappy feeling. Samsung has sacrificed utility for aesthetic. The whole idea of "look, we know the location of the fingerprint is awkward and hard to reach, that's why we give you 2 extra (less-convenient) methods for unlocking your phone, yay!" is plain stupid! I was waiting for the S8 so bad, but the fingerprint is one of the key turn down for me :(
hey...nice review man
editing game on point
and dope suit too...
awesome video, should've spoken a bit more about recording video but that's the only thing missing from the core features
Love the review and very humble dude. New sub
Excellent review. Cannot wait to get my phone on Friday.
I love the way everyone seems to have forgotten that the same curves exist on the Note 7.
This review format is great!!
Is 570 ppi and 577 ppi a noticeable difference when it comes to screen door effect when using the vr headset?
Do you think it is worth waiting to buy the S8+ when the full use of Bixby has been realised? You said that later on in the Spring, it will be rolled out?\
Also, is it worth holding out for a few months to find out how the battery lasts after 6 months?
s8 vs s8+ in the GearVR. is there any difference since the s8 has a higher PPI?
I noticed some lag while you're swiping... nice review
Mic Jam Me too now im nervous about it
I've been playing with the s8 since last night, no lag so far, maybe the s8+ has the issue?
Mic Jam It's in slow motion(look at his hands)
It was slow motion
how did you keep the weather at 8 degrees throughout the vid?
really enjoyed daniel. great reviewer!
great camera angles. good in-depth review.
Loved the review and professional style touch
One of the best S8 review.
Can anyone tell me what's the name of that game he was playing?
nice review by the way
Abraham Al- HatMi The game is called PinOut
His tone of voice for the review seems off to me. In depth review though
I am also planning to buy ..but what are major issue and how is battery life
Great and detailed review. Loved those shots
THIS IS GOOD, this review
I just wanna know if you can have the face recognition unlock for 2 people so my girl can unlock it too
Love the new format for the review. Really good job. Just a bit of redundancy in the content. Other than that, love AC @ModernDad and @MrMobile.
MrMobile I'll have to agree with you. That is a NICE suit. Also this review is really down to earth while retaining professionalism 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
When are they going to wrap the glass over the top and bottom also! Can't be to far away
One of the best reviews i have seen about mobile
What improvements did Samsung do on the facial recognition? The standard Nougat one is already great and extremely fast.
Ygor Cortes none. Not a single one of them is secure.
Steven Juris yeah, I haven't seen any improvements on Samsung's implementation.
Ygor Cortes until somebody figures out how to determine if the face is alive vs an image there's no way to make it fully secure
Steven Juris yeah, that's true. Google actually managed to do it on Jelly Bean (there was an option to require a blink to unlock the device), but it was quite slow. It still wasn't 100% secure, but at least more than it was before that.
yohoo great review man. Always watch smartphones review from this channel. want this much sooo muuuchh, the best samsung phones ever.
very good professional review
