- The Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ are probably the most important Android smartphones of the year. To Samsung, they're a chance to regain the public trust; to gadget nerds, they pack more cutting-edge features than any other mobile; and to normals, they're the phones that are about to be plastered across every billboard and TV screen from here to the holidays. I’m Michael Fisher and I’ve spent a week with the Galaxy S8 and S8+; let’s see if they deserve your dollars in MrMobile's Galaxy S8 Review/Galaxy S8+ Review!

[ABOUT THE GALAXY S8 REVIEW/GALAXY S8+ REVIEW]
MrMobile's Samsung Galaxy S8 Review/Galaxy S8+ Review was produced following one week with a Galaxy S8 review device and a Galaxy S8+ review device, each on loan from Samsung. The devices were used on T-Mobile US in Greater Boston and the primary S8+ was paired to one wearable, a Gear S3 Frontier. Additional Bluetooth pairing took place with a Maven Chevy Malibu, and worked without incident. Software on each Galaxy S8 review unit was pre-production.

Top notch as usual man! You are the G.O.A.T.!
Danny Winget You are too!
+Danny Winget, I really like your videos Danny Winget. Especially your LG V20 review was really good.
marques is goat sorry he 2nd
Killah Los umm no he’s not. Marques is a wack sell out.
Ok I'll bite.. what's GOAT?
I'm actually really impressed that the iris scanner work if you are wearing sunglasses.
Jake Lo it should. Infared sensor
My opinions on Samsung changed largely since the release of the s6, and this one just makes me feel that Samsung is doing innovative things, while Apple is sticking to the basics.
same
Triple H yeah only thing i hate about samsung is how they try to compete against google in some departements that google is good at like bixby
Faze Cancer Yeah, but there is still google assistant on Samsung phones too, along with Bixby
Gamer Lycan but what's the point? Google is the best assistant.
Triple H agreed
Mr. Fisher, your videos never fail. Beautiful presentation sir!
Mr Mobile, honest admission- I was SO EAGERLY waiting for your full review of the s8! I have an s6, and was planning to upgrade this year... there are tons of reviews out there, but no1.. and I mean NO 1 can hold a candle to you in this aspect. the deeply comforting voice with the perfect modulations, the non- geeky feel to the overall video, the awesome background score...just perfect !
i thought i was the only one who quite enjoyed the narration :P
QCAnubis3 I've been watching his videos since he was with pocketnow, I've always come to enjoy his narrating style and his commentary!
Ahah same XD most of pocketnow's videos i watched were from him :P such a calm and funny narration imho
Galaxy S8 is the best phone the money can buy right now. I will definitely buy it but I will also keep my OnePlus 3T, which does not have random hiccups. Samsung, I love you but you can't fight against stock Android.
I'm very pleased to see none of the top comments feature people complaining about who's copying who, when the truth is, everyone inspires everyone and in the end the consumer is happier to have the most interesting features on his favorite device regardless of company or fanboyism. Good job today, internet.
... the moderator is working pretty hard to keep up. :)
that was a good response :D
Copying is an awful thing that just shows lazyness, lack of creativity, lack of skill, lack of imagination and so on. It's not a noteworthy thing. Futhermore, copying usually doesn't make anything better, since it's a copy.
Luckily copying is the last thing Samsung does, becuase they usually lead the smartphone world in innovation, while other very known brands don't ever take any risks or make any innovations, apart from removing features, as if that is innovating.
Lucas Vidal 👏👏👏👏👏
Lucas Vidal Best comment I've seen by far, it's great that most smartphones in general are becoming more feature packed, and whichever one you'll get, you'll be happy to use it ^^
This has been one of the most complete reviews that I have seen on this phone! I have been an iPhone user for over six years, and I have been thinking of switching to Samsung, but all the videos talk about velocity etc. which is great, but I barely ever heard them talking about some of the less obvious features the phone has. I think I will buy the Samsung 8 after watching this video. Thank You!
Daniela Camacho . i just came out of the shackles of my iPhone 7 plus to Oneplus 3T a few days back and will be graduating to the S8 in near future. Feeling which i get, despite being an iPhone loyalist for the past 10 years, is of absolute freedom!..I don't have any hesitation in accepting that EVERYTHING on my android device is better than EVERYTHING on my iPhone 7 plus !.. sorry Apple,.. but you gotta innovate at a faster pace... AND PLEASE CHANGE THE SOFTWARE!... THAT 4×5 GRID APP SYSTEM SUCKS IN THIS DAY N AGE!
Thank you for sharing your experience.
Daniela Camacho Velocity is speed in a direction.... Using big words , of which Velocity arguably isn't, doesn't make you seem more adroit . It just makes you seem Ikrsome. Speed makes more sense and would have been fine. It's a phone, not an aeroplane.
ljts Maybe english isn't his native tongue
ljts wow, you're pleasant :|
Mr.Mobile then Android Authority (Josh Vergara)... I like how Michael Fisher still not afraid to point out cons of the product that's being reviewed. Keep it up with the honest reviews!
allot of people are going on about samsung phones lagging on some things and ive had the s7 for a year and have never experienced lag
Yeah same with me
The older ones do because of Samsung's skin over android
They just dont how to use a android phone efficiently
Mr. Mobile = Best reviewer voice overs on YT
I don't know why so many people dislike the fingerprint scanner. I've had it now for a week and it feels completely natural.
The S8 is one of the signs that proves that the Note 8 will be the best phone of 2017. I just can't wait...
Michael fisher you deserve to have a UA-cam channel you're the king and you're voice is very good very easy to understand every words 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 I wish I had a TV channel so I could hire you for the news 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
As an S6 user, I find the S8's fingerprint scanner hardly awkward. My finger already normally sits on that spot using my current phone (as the S6 has a recessed heart rate sensor on the same spot).
areeb1296 there is only 5% chance 😐
areeb1296 s6 is almost the same size the s8 is a few mm skinnier and the s8 is a bit taller
Daryll Alvero I am moving from an s6 too phone should be here any second 😁 and I agree, it's not that simple to use the fingerprint scanner in the front either. The way I hold my phone makes me think I will like that fingerprint location, that's where my pointer finger is around anyway.
Daryll Alvero, I am an S6 user too, and I find my finger resting on the heart rate sensor quiet comfortably too.
But just dont forget the S8 is a MUCH taller phone. and the massive camera hump on the S6 kinda guide your finger towards where the heart rate sensor is located, which is also a big reason why the finger can lay comfortably on that spot.
I believe the S8 is a lot harder to manage when it comes to the fingerprint sensor placement
Nicholas I've held the regular S8 and it feels pretty comfortable. The added height doesn't feel awkward; however, on the S8+, there is a bit of a shuffle when reaching for it.
the only man i can trust for a perfect review!
S8:- Infinite Display
MF:- Infinite Likes!
That's correct 😎
ABHILASH Micheal Fisher ☺️
But what about audio????
ted baylis unfortunately the audio is just a small improvement from the S7 as it doesn't have actual 24 or 32 bit dac/no dolby atmos tho it supports flac/wav. as well 24bit & 32bit audio files don't expect volume output as was back when note4 was the greatest phone in the planet which having had the note 7 it was the 1 thing that made me feel cheated even tho I admittedly loved the display it was thankfully due to the recall that the ZTE Axon 7 with it's 24bit 192hz Dolby Atmos Audio with stereo front facing speakers that actually has Super Amoled qhd with gorilla glass 4 5.5" display that side to side with S7edge proved 2 Me that wireless charging and waterproofing is deserving of a phone that offers a visual & audio experience before asthetic beauty which is alright if ur looking for status but what good is a muscle car with a small car engine! The Display is beautiful tho so are all Amoled at 2k as hdr is for when u playback hdr content so I still feel short changed and will only buy the S8+ when I first buy a complimentary dac/amp headphone accessory and I Mean A Good One. who knows a waterproof flagship killer will be out b4 the yr is over with Amoled & Dac Dolby Atmos makes me think on Zenfone AR, 8gb ram 128gb Rom with SDcard QHD Amoled 5.7" keeping standard ratio & DAC with Sony's 23mp camera that's Fucking worth 700 bucks
Michael Torres The axon 7 will be my next phone. Hated to see that the axon 7s did not retain the dual front speakers. Dual FRONT facing speakers should be standard. People who don't understand why have never had an htc m8, or a phone with similar speakers.
Fun fact: in 2020 also Bixby is not good.
disappointed to hear of the slight LAG
Don't you always put Nova on yours anyway....which gets rid of the Flipboard page, and now presumably the Bixby page?
Rich Brown Doesn't Nova cost money?
Trash Can Only Nova launcher prime.
Shellyman Vol.2 Ah, I see. Thanks.
Great video Fisher... probably the most versatile and honest review about the s8 so far... excellent video execution, audio and quality... great job . keep making more useful videos!
The All-Screen Smartphone era is now here~
Finally!
Navaro El Ardi Sony and Huawei disagree. Lol
Navaro El Ardi yes I love the idea of having a taller than wider phone the demo units of the s8 are really nice and to see such a big screen and hold it with one hand comfortably is crazy
Navaro El Ardi accidental touch era you mean
"So yeah, buy it. Just keep in mind that your neighbors probably will, too."
MrMobile: "This is the Samsung Galaxy S8..."
Me: "This is the review I've been waiting for"
010FSL101 captain 2 phones
Unpopular opinion: I love the fingerprint sensor on my note 8
Great review as always Michael, I've been enjoying your videos since the S5/Note 4 Era. Currently using the S7 Edge and very satisfied with it, think I'm gonna wait at least another year or so... Cheers from Portugal!
Robert Downey back at It again with Great review
I got 8 notifications from channels,but from this comment you know who I choose
Apcoolcharles mkbhd?
Got S8 for 340$ in October 2018 from Amazon, LOVE IT 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
I used to only watch Michael Fisher videos on PocketNow. So happy he has his own channel as MrMobile now. I love his narration and review style
Many thanks!
@@TheMrMobile hi Michael 👋
I never had a problem with the placementof fingerprint scanner on this phone. It was actually designed to be unlocked with the right index finger .
love it. I'm getting it in orchid gray
That's the color I'd go with, for sure.
Same!
y not coral blue?
I still use and love my s8. Feels like the perfect size for my hands- and none of the features that have been added in recent years have felt like they were, "Must haves."
Once you disable that Bixby button, it's perfect.
Best Tech UA-camr !! Each and every video is master piece!
I had the S8 for a solid 3 years and some months and honestly would say that this phone was my favorite one by samsung by far. The only thing I didn't like sometimes was the fingerprint sensor placement and the Bixby button that I eventually found a way to disable. Other than that, the S8 was a really good phone.
I'll wait until Apple and One Plus release there own Flagships..then ill decide..
which one did you buy?
Give him 1M subs already
Like the style of presentation man. Good work.
Thanks!
Watching on my s9. Just switched from iPhone 7. Love everything except duplicate apps
I am gonna stick wid my s7 for now 5.1 inch display and 577 pixels r still gud for me... Plus m9 is quite snappy 😊😊
Salman Mustafa Abe Chutiye s7 ki 5.1 hai nd s7 edge ki 5.5 dhyan se dekh... Mein use kar raha mujhe na sikha
Anurag Bhatt There is not a big difference in dimensions, S8 has 1mm less width and is 5mm taller than the S7. Check dimensions on GSM Arena
Samsung has done an amazing job with this phone. The only thing that Samsung dropped the ball on is obviously the fingerprint sensor location. That is one of the worst fingerprint sensor locations they could have came up with. Maybe it was a last minute decision, but still, if it had a fingerprint sensor that was central and lower. This would be an almost perfect smartphone for 2017.
Could you make a video about Android O?
Watching this in 2022. The S8 plus was a phone I loved. I’m about to get the S22 Ultra but I will always remember this one.
I believe that you are the only guy who talked about samsung s8 dex. I am waiting for this video. Nice review 👍
Can you turn Bixby completely off?
Jarl Ballin' no
Jarl Ballin' you can remap it with a different app
No you can't...
***** yes duh, download an app which lets you remap it from bixby to another app
+Deco Infinity Samsung blocked this with a day 1 update. The button can only be used for Bixby and nothing else...
imagine that back in 2017 we'r call phone that are $700-$850 expensive lmao
is it the best phone of 2017?
Never going straight Note 8 still not unveiled. THAT will be the best phone of 2017...
Mr. Legend considering there's only 2 phones that have been released by big companies, I'd say it's unfair to say just yet
Wait for note 8 :p
wait for HTC 11
Ezaya Kashiwazaki why? It's just the same thing as the HTC U. With a bigger screen and bezels. HTC is only surviving due to making the Pixel not for their ever decreasing sales.
Bluetooth 5.0 is a nice addition, and THAT SCREEN! Great video as always, nicely edited and very conversational.
I have an S6 Edge currently, due to this phones lag I'm gonna skip this one and get the Pixel instead.
Moeez Syed doesnt laq on me after the nougat update,
just reformat the phone after get the nougat
Moeez Syed you should wait for its successor
I was talking about a pixel successor, and yeah i saw it lag ,but everyphone lags
Sai battu every phone lags after you use it for a while. But S8 is already freezing and lagging out of the box like what after a few weeks ? Lmao.
MICOLE WHYTE no i didnt mean the pixel lags its just when that guy said im getting the next pixel i said to wait for that phones succesor cause it wont lag
Me watching this in 2021 on my galaxy S8 to see how good it was back in the day 🤓
The point driven home for me on the S8 is simple: Why pay so much for a good-looking phone when a growingly cash-strapped market can look to very capable alternatives and save so much more? Yes, subsidized phones with carriers are still a significant market to cater to, and I thought that fit me as a consumer forever. Then upper mid-range phones like the Moto Z Play, OnePlus, Alcatel, Huawei, and the like came in strong and I consider the flagship to be too much for not appreciably more. The invisible hand and all...
*Courtesy of my awesome Moto Z Play Droid.
Well said!
David Peterson i agree my man. I really enjoy my Moto Z Play. The battery life is insane for how i use it(Moderate-Heavy) like streaming tons of "Hulu" and music. The hardware isn't the fastest, camera is definitely not the best. But the phone is pretty quick and both camera's gets the job down. In all im happy with my "mid-ranged" smartphone👍😊
JosePh CoNey The heck of it is, at an earlier time (ok, like two years ago), I would have strongly considered a flagship like the Moto Z Force, devoted all I could to afford such a device, and bought it as soon as possible. And I've only been a part of the smartphone craze for the last 4 and a half years, so I'm not the gadget expert like our esteemed "Bass-tonite" Mr. Fisher. But tastes seem to have matured as the market diversifies, and even a schmo like myself can acquire some insight with what is useful for myself and what is useful for the average consumer. I'll still defer to the aforementioned expert, seeing as he's worked the literal floor of gadget-dom and seen the corporate rollout of the latest and greatest firsthand...Boy, I guess all this exposition is sand-washing up to me saying, "Times be a-changin', eh?"
David Peterson well in the flagships defense i still see them pushing the envelope with speed (iphone 7+) display technology ( samsung galaxy s8) cameras ( pixel, iphone,galaxy) which apart from huawei seem to not evolve that quickly, but who knows I might be completely wrong
David Peterson
Hey it's the most defined it explained video of galaxy S8 I have ever saw on UA-cam and as well as it has the best screen i have ever seen on any smartphone.... Mr.Mobile you did a very great job on this review of galaxy S8....
Still lagging with your 40gb of ram and your 12 cores samsung? @05:35
Roberto Martínez 40gb of ram lmao even some high end desktops don't have that much. 12 cores? A 12 core intel is $1000 itself I think you meant 8 cores
Mohmod Ali I sense no sarcasm, genius
Yep, I definitely thought 40gb of ram was something possible in a cellphone and also a 12 core processor. And I also forgot to mention the water cooling system Samsung uses. So sad that even with that, their phone still lags.
Roberto Martínez it's not even real water cooling 😂😂😂
still missing fast charging, wireless charging, iris scanning, customization beyond wallpapers, a headphone jack, minimal bezels, a usable low light camera, no camera bump, super AMOLED displays and apks apple?
EDIT: expandable storage
I am still rocking this bad boy :) It has aged well, plus I am broke af haha
s7 lag after 6 months. reduced to the performance of a budget phone. same story will happen with the s8.
Paulson Dumbbells completely agree. There are even some budget android phones which doesn't lag but Samsung still can't figure out how to sort this problem out. But those Idiot Samsung fans always buy it.
Vipin Mohan the note 7 has lagged once idk wtf you talking bout
Paulson Dumbbells because you root you’re phone. That’s why it lags
Try to clear cache, mine never lags, as fast as a rocket
Vipin Mohan I don't really know why you think that everyone that buys the S8 is a fanboy.
I mean, it's a great phone, are you really that naive?
I really wish they would go back to this design. At least with some of the budget phones
Lol, Samsung's biggest flaw will ALWAYS plague them.... they just CANNOT get TouchWiz right😂.... I can't even begin to tell you how many Samsung devices I've seen that lag terribly after just a year and freeze, crash, restart on their own, or just shut off outta nowhere....
Yet, for some reason, Samsung still has a cult following of users and fanboys that cream their panties every time Samsung releases a new device😂...
Based on this review and my OWN experiences with the S8. It's ok... design is fantastic(besides the fingerprint sensor. Speed is ok. Camera is great. Display is really nice. Software yet again kills the experience though...
TheAverage Joe I think they just think that's normal with all phone lol
Ross MK apparently so... Samsung fanboys don't seem to understand that a device isn't suppose to age like that lol.
Then again, unlike iOS, Samsung typically doesn't update their devices often and continually. That's one thing I absolutely fucking love about iOS. I received like 3 updates on my 6s Plus since purchasing it. Each one better than the last! Which is why I'm excited for iOS 11!
Bet Samsung takes a good 6 months to update the S7's to Android O when it drops. If they update them at all....
ive got a shitty iphone 6 that restarts by itself every few hours, and its laggy aswell
Gurulzeon not all iPhone's are perfect... but in comparison to Samsung devices. Issues are few and far between. My experience with my 6s Plus has been nothing short of nearly perfect. But, then again, I manage my apps properly, manage my connections properly, restart the device when needed. Things most people never think to do....
The software doesn't anywhere near kill the experience, most of the changes made are actually improvements, such as letting you search in the settings app or the in-built blue light filter. Are you sure you weren't using an S4?
Coming back to this, the S8 was the only newer phone to make me awe with that screen.
Until the Fold.
Curved display sucks, same s7 camera, awful fingerprint reader location, lack of stereo speakers, cluttered af ui and isn't as smooth near iPhone 7 Plus (even 6s). Waiting for the iPhone 8/X BEAST
i compared to 2 cameras.The hardware might be the same but the s7 shots were warmer..S8 camera is really good from an already great s7 cam
Asterisk Dude '
0:39 When the Xiaomi first came out, I thought it looked kinda ugly, and I had my doubts about phones with minimal bezels. But the LG G6 and Galaxy S8 show how to do big screens beautifully.
Mr fisher, I think you almost implied that being on contract is better than not being on one. That is there is one merit of being on contract. I have lived in worlds where there are no contract and a world where there is one. In fact I've owned a sprint store, failed miserably and come back to India. India is heaven for cell phone users. Especially if you compare the cost versus USA. Secondly, great review. Lastly, please do an update on the best anc headphones cause last I remember you're tied on qc25 and mdr1000 without a final verdict. I mean don't we deserve a final hammer on table.
For the first time in a while I enjoyed your review more then MKBHD's just cuz you were able to point out a few issues and were honest in your opinions. Big boys are brand sellers and pressure is always on, for obvious reasons, however to come out with facts is something not easy when you are a big public figure and a brand seller plus everyone is looking at you including the brand itself. Bravo for an excellent video and keep up the good work. With you in this journey all the way 😀😉
awesome review!!! great info on a great phone!!!😎 I love my S8 plus and bought it because of this review. Good work!
#MrMobile think Samsung is holding Bixby back for the Note 8? I believe it's being done on purpose cuz the phone offers just enough to hold folks off intill the end of the summer witch so happens to be the launch of the Note 8 time frame! Quinncidence Mr Mobil? I think not!
John Merced it's going to take years to get Bixby where Samsung wants it to go.
Why are we still talking about a laggy interface on phones that would pretty much, without a problem, run triple A games with their ridiculous specs sheet
Mr. Fisher , you are an awesome reviewer, thanks for awesome content like always.
I think it'd be better to get an S7 edge...I mean if costs matter to the individual anyway
I actualy find my self very comfortable with that finger print sensor. I still belive that on the s8+ would be a bit more difficult if u have smaller hands.
timo 1563 How do you like it? Was it worth?
They don't make 'em like they used to.
You know it's bad when you are watching a video, and you think "Hey, Michael Fisher probably has a video on the same thing!", then you watch it and realize you don't want to go back and finish the other videos ;)
Good job as usual, Michael. Those headphones are supposed to be pretty good, but the limiting factor is that you are plugging them into a smartphone. It would be different if you were using one of the few smartphones that excel in that department (LG, HTC, London Marshal), but when using a phone with just better than average sound, the best headphones are going to be under-utilized.
Samsung sure made the phone pretty, but everyone is going to be wiping off that camera lens!
that equalizer is the same on that is built into Google Play Music
Bravo!! Samsung!! and Bravo Michael!! Excellent reviewing; short and sweet.
Can't wait for the full reviews to come. You and Detroit Borg are my favourite phone reviewers by a country mile.
"Swiping the fingerprint sensor drops the notification shade..."
Yeah, if you can reach it.
"Redemption in glass" .Well said Michael,After what happened with the note 7,Samsung needed something big and that's exactly what they did here,Everything about this phone is amazing except maybe for the awkward fingerprint scanner but i guess it was to make users depend on the iris scanner,Cant wait to see how the new IPhone is gonna fare against this one.
It’s always wonderful to watch your mobile reviews which are fantastic, and I never get bored a bit because they way you present makes an interesting punch where as an audience we love it!!! And the good part is you always balance your reviews and not biased to any company but still give the best of both the worlds. Did you make a review on Samsung edge 7? I’m not sure if I have seen it but a few months I started using Samsung again and it’s a great phone after my S2 LOL! Now Samsung galaxy 8 brings a new level of perspective in display technology and waiting to see what apple 8 will deliver!
Afteri heard the S7 was said to be having the same problems every galaxy phone had (poor aging, worse performance over time) im very skeptical of this phone.
most detailed review as always....by watching your reviews its totally impossible for me to watch other reviews on same devices by other channels..
Currently i am using an S6, wanted to switch to the S8 but now i think i am going to pick up an s7 edge for half the price, and wait for the S9. Maybe the fingerprint reader will be at a better place and the camera will also get an update.
I bought the s8 plus and the finger placed scanner placemen is pretty good for me. The bixby is good too but Google assistant is unbeatable
what do you use to stabilize your camera movement?
I wathed MKBHD first, and it's like he reviewed a different phone. This is the review that gives an hones view on this new phone! Thanks mr.Fisher!
good video. evry time when I watch your video I learn something.keep on doing this.😆😉🤗👍
Everyone seems to be drooling over this phone. I must be the only one that is really dissapointed with this phone. The only beautiful thing on this phone is the screen. Other than that, the battery is not great, the speaker setup sucks, the placement of the fingerprint sensor sucks, 4GB of ram is not all that I expected it would be 6GB since they are adding the feature to use the phone as a computer, the camera is nothing really different, the software is not all that since it does not look like the apps take advantage of the screen size. At least the LG G6 customized the camera app to use the whole screen. Bixby is another S Voice in my opinion with a dedicated button that you can't change. I'll keep my S7 edge for now. I will be holding out for the NOTE 8 which I believe will have the real things that will make you say wow.
as usual superb review Michael Fisher
Still rocking my Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 I got back in 2014 March... I will replace my 5S when I get a full time job after im done college.
Wow really nice review. Great sense of humor while delivering a exhausting review. BTW if you us an Otter box finding the finger print scanner. I think I will give the iris scanner another try. Subscribed.
Samsung provides lots of specs but lacks quality. I will buy One+3T
for me the most important question is, can you remap the bixby button (without rooting) and can you replace bixby w/ google now (without a launcher)
Audie Liem no
Audie Liem yes u can
I want to wait a few years to upgrade. I have a Nexus 6p but I figure I'll really feel a crazy phone upgrade by then vs only noticing sublte differences in phone performance per year.
Yours is the best executed tech channel on UA-cam in my opinion. man you deserve way more subs.
love your content ❤🤘
Wish Samsung would have launched the Google Edition Galaxy S8.😞😞😞
I don't like the placement of the fingerprint scanner. can you unlock the phone by tapping the screen twice like on the LG G4? or at least something similar?
your videos are some work! Entertaining, classy, and informative. Love your work
Your really good at doing youtube and I think you should carry on doing good reviews
Please like so he can see
😂
You're the best man on the UA-cam to review every smart phones on this planet. this is the best smart phone on this planet absolutely outstanding and beautiful 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍
i love the color reproduction in your videos ,which monitor do you use? and how can you expose such a video so well that the screens of the phones you review are not so bright and the background is well exposed as well? looking forward yo your reply
I don’t know why I’m watching a review of a 5 year old smart phone review but I am !
