  • @dugusmc
    @dugusmc 7 років тому

    Yeah, I bought an LG G6, which I love, used Nova Launcher on it (of course), and did a bunch of setup work to get max battery, but great usage. Here's what I say per your review as well...stereo speakers front facing or like iPhone 7 are needed (I was using the Nexus 6 and miss that); fingerprint scanner placement is key as you point out; and battery life even if the phones are slightly thicker would be great! Great review as usual for you.

    • @dannywinget
      @dannywinget  7 років тому

      +Douglas Smith thanks! Yeah all valid points. My G6 vs S8 video is dropping tomm!

    • @carlosmartinez3020
      @carlosmartinez3020 7 років тому

      danny winget 10 mins of everything is much better than 25 mins of nothing there are plenty of reviews which have little to no information all they all talk about is the dam screen problems like the redish pinkish tint and the black bars if thats not all they take most that time talking about how bad the fp scanner is tbh i prefer it at the back i know i am going to love it on the back i was going to wait for the note 8 due to being a note fan over the s series but ny note 4 broke 2 days ago so il just have to get the s8 and wait for the note 9

  • @ronchristella
    @ronchristella 7 років тому

    Nice work again Danny. Always look forward to your videos. That battery life is the only drawback to this his phone. I'm using a 7+ and the battery life is great on heavy usage. I'll wait for the iPhone 8 before I decide on my next upgrade.

    • @SunshineVocals
      @SunshineVocals 7 років тому

      TechFreakTv13 the s8 plus with a smaller battery and much bigger display than the s7 edge is actually 1% better battery. Not much to speak of but it's an incredible achievement.

    @dreamcastfan 7 років тому

    I really like that screen boxing feature that lets you crop out part of an app while using another app. My iPhone 6 Plus is getting seriously long in the tooth now, the 7 Plus last year was really underwhelming. If all Apple has this year is a 7S I may well jump ship.

  • @nana-gl8zf
    @nana-gl8zf 7 років тому

    is the back button placement really that hard to understand? back button is what people would use the most compared to the multi task button, and since many people are right handed the back button was placed to be as close to the thumb as possible.

    • @daviddaaannggg
      @daviddaaannggg 7 років тому

      Steve Soldado while that's true, in literally EVERY other component of UX design in apps, websites, or anything really the back button is always on left. I get why you'd like it on the right for the reason you said but it's just inconsistent that's why

    Great Review!! I pre-ordered this phone but I'm kind of thinking I should have went with the plus version. I thought it wouldn't be that pocket friendly though. I am now kind of worried about the battery life. Do you think it's better to get the plus version?

      Usually Exynos version runs faster and runs cooler so you got a better deal.

    What's your reaction to @SamsungMobile 's decision to patch the Bixby button remapping?

      I didn't even see that! Bixby in its current stage isn't great. We will see how they integrate this into their other products down the road. I think Bixby is more of a long term commitment than a short term thing but I love Google Assistant. I personally don't see the need.

    I like it, but I started with an S3, and with the 2-year contracts, I get the odd numbers. I find that the even numbers aren't much of an upgrade from their previous years. I feel like the odd numbers add big new features. I could be wrong idk. But, even if I could upgrade in 2017, I'm really happy with my S7 edge, and don't find this to be much better.
