Fail design on a fail phone

    AnonD-145316, 17 Aug 2017Too bad I don't put my phones on a case! And am always care... moreYeah, right. It's not usually you who would make it "accidentally" drop. It's usually that guy who was walking to bumped it off your hand while you were using it.

    Sure, "I am always careful", "I don't like cases", that's how the designers of these fragile-cladded $1000 devices would want you to think. An actual S7 Edge of ours slides off the bed and onto the floor - cracked front. $220 to replace the Super AMOLED screen.

      Fingerprint scanner on the back is a really poor solution.

      I'd rather have a bit of a bezel at the bottom, if they could not implement a behind the screen FS. Otherwise, it looks like a great phone, but I think the iPhone 8 may well eat its lunch.

                        "and there's also mention of f/1.7 aperture and optical image stabilisation, though it's unclear from these materials if one or both sensors have those features."

                        It says in the briefing notes "With our dual pixel sensor and F/1.7 LENSES" doesn't that clarify at least some of the features, only OIS is not confirmed on both yet. but likely?

                                      NOTE 8 would look so better if it had VERTICAL CAMERA and FINGERPRINT SENSOR below it with 8GB RAM & 128 GB internal storage with expandable micro sd card
