Galaxy S8 - 3 Things Samsung Didn't Tell You

2017-03-30
has a sweet shirt joy calm boys Oh guys Johnson here literally just got back from New York to LA we're had a chance to go hands-on with the brand new Galaxy s8 and during the plane ride back while I probably should have been sleeping I spent a majority of the time reading comments from you guys and there were some pretty interesting things that Samsung really didn't talk about now to quickly answer this question yes in fact I will be giving away a galaxy I say very soon so if you have not subscribed make sure you do that inter notifications on it so you do not miss when that happens plus you know right away when a new video drops oh I'm usually down in the comment section for the first power so definitely drop a line and say what's up now before I jump into the juice and it's on a preface this video by stating I am a fan of the Galaxy S state I'm excited for it is a beautiful device but there were definitely some question marks after yesterday's events firstly and rightfully so there is a ton of hype around Samsung's big beautiful edge-to-edge infinity display which packs a pretty impressive 29 60 by 1440 resolution but if you check out the website and look at the fine print things get a little interesting the Galaxy s8 is advertised as a 5.8 inch quad HD display which designates 1440p same goes for its older brother the galaxy s 8 plus but then come the asterisk infinity display a bezel is full front tilt damn Samsung and pg-13 except you're not getting the full frontal in pg-13 so let's actually rated our edge-to-edge display where it gets juicy though is the next asterisk default resolution is full HD plus and can be changed to quad HD in settings so this means that all these fancy-pants Tech Talk even though Samsung is clearly marketing this as a 1440p phone as a box it is set to 1080p now before anyone out there freaks out and runs to grab a pitchfork I personally do not think this is a huge deal I thought I was in Canada for a second a wild Linus showed up hello everybody I have no idea what video this is I'm going to assume it's about like app or something it's actually Samsung Wow okay well that's cool too I'll see you in a little bit man have fun with your thermal paste overclocking I will love you yes a little we're with Samsung clearly marketing one thing and then delivering another especially in fine print but at the end of the day if you want those extra pixels and the nexus screen real estate is something you can quickly change in settings I assume the sole reason Samsung is doing this is simply to manage efficiency in terms of power Plus for all we know it could be part of their eight point battery inspection to keep those batteries cool now next what I want to talk about if I'm being honest is something that blew right past me and my limited amount of time was a device that is regarding the camera specifically the rear shooter we all know the front-facing camera got a solid upgrade up to eight megapixels better on low light so that part is cool but if you look closely the rear camera is pretty much the same as the galaxy s7 honest people I think it blew past me is when I saw 12 megapixels I kind of just assumed cool they're keeping the megapixels the same they're going to widen up the aperture they're gonna make a pickles bigger insert fancy marketing term here or here but in actuality is pretty much the same now again I don't necessarily think that this is a deal breaker maybe if anything that's one less reason to upgrade from the galaxy s7 to the s8 but it is slightly weird that there is no advancement whatsoever in terms of the rear camera on top of that I'm also pretty surprised the Samsung did not opt to go for two cameras maybe on the galaxy f28 I could see that but it's super surprised not to see that on the galaxy f8 plus if you got my hands on yesterday there really are only two differences between the two the galaxy s 8 is a 5.8 inch display where if you galaxy si plus is a 6.2 inch display but both share the exact same resolution the difference however lies in the battery department the galaxy s 8 features 3000 milliamp hours for the galaxy if a plus is slightly larger at 3500 so you can clearly see there really isn't that big of a gap between the two and maybe a Samsung what about least office for a dual camera that's a plus that would have made sense now lastly some of that personally I still do not have clarity on our read conflicting reports of some say yes some say no that is whether or not the Galaxy s8 features stereo speakers I kind of just assume no because Samsung did not talk about our yesterday's event if it were a new feature you would think they would want to brag about it but they did not say a word still though I've read some articles that say yes it does have stereo speakers and some is saying no it clearly does not so if you're in the audience I definitely let me know well now flipping a switch and talk about some things that you may have missed but on the positive side the Galaxy s8 is actually the first phone to feature Bluetooth 5.0 what's cool about Bluetooth 5.0 is you can actually output to two separate Bluetooth devices and control them individually so if you want to go to a pair of headphones to lose his speaker or to headphones you can do that and I guarantee some others going to be unimpressed why do I need to output two Bluetooth devices and come on man it is cool maybe you're on an airplane you're watching a movie and you want to stream audio to two separate Bluetooth headphones maybe one person likes to listen to things loud and the other has super-sensitive ears needs to keep things down did you ever think about that lastly and just to clarify Samsung did mention this yesterday as have not to talk about in my video I thought it was worth mentioning still with each Galaxy s8 and s8 plus samsung is including a hundred hour pair of AKG headphones I thought was awesome the sights not hopefully enjoyed the video maybe found it helpful go to hit that share button and if you cannot get enough of the Galaxy S a goodness make sure to check out that video here this is Jonathan and I will catch you guys later
