      @vijayraja254 4 роки тому +119

      Its because we generally have a lot of pimples and are dusk in colour.....so the process samsung does makes us look better whereas most of americans and europeans are white or blacks....when the same brightning effect is applied to them the end result is not so great...coz they are already white in colour and smoothening their face means sacrificing some details while taking a potrait shot....but tats what we asians exactly want....we dont like our pimples to be visible in our pics.

      I'm not lying when i say i get 8+ hours of battery life(s20+) somedays with 120hz turned on, provided i use the dark mode on. Around 7/7.5 with dark mode turned off. But that's probably because i don't use it for gaming or any heavy duty stuff. I have seen contrasting comments from other users though, with some struggling to get even 5 hours. I believe the exynos and snapdragon disparity is the main reason for this confusion. Exynos apparently uses a lot of power and is not as efficient as the snapdragon variant. Hence, its the snapdragon versions which are getting high praise for the battery life whereas the exynos is being criticised.

    For those who doesn't want to watch a lot of camera comparison vs last generation, S20 and S20+ improved low light shots in the Night photos option, improved the zoom (obviously) and improved the details overall. You get a sharper and brighter image when compared to the S10 line. That's it.

    Actually the camera on the S20 is way better than the S10 because NO ONE talked about how awful pictures were indoors. Literally everything looked sluggish and unusable and colors become really desaturated indoors. The S20 fixes all of that and pictures indoors are way sharper and I think this is thanks to the larger sensor. The S10 already had a great camera but indoor shots were really bad an skin tones too. Samsung fixed both if these issues and I love that.

    Got my S20plus about a month ago, and I'm loving most of it. This is my first galaxy phone and I've resisted coming on board for many reasons. The s20 phone felt like it was on par with the overall experience of the pixel phone, but unfortunately the main selling point, the camera, is far from perfect.
    Have anyone else experienced ghosting or reflections while taking photos in low light areas that have strong focused lights e.g. in a park at night with lampposts around, or a dark room with candles such as a birthday party... ? I'm seeing these light sources reflected in my photo and there's no way I can pitch my phone to get rid of them...

    Good video but you said something that didn't make any sense and didn't explain it lol. Samsung didn't name the S20 generation after anything to do with the hardware, it's because it came out in 2020. They switched the naming scheme of their flagships to be the same as the year they were released, hence the s21 series that came out this year and the inevitable s22 next year.

I realize that Samsung Dex support isn't available on the Note 10 Lite. Is this the reason why I should choose the Note 9 over the Note 10 Lite? At almost the same price point, which phone is more worth it? Which phone would you recommend to me and why? Thank you.

    For years tech reviewers harped about resolution and PPIs to the hilt. Now suddenly it's OK to have 1080p with 120hz. I know reason is to save battery life but then same could be achieved by making other tradeoffs depending on how far one is willing to go. I would call it innovation/progression if they can deliver good battery life with 120hz at max resolution without making the phone too big else it's just moving pegs around.
