Samsung Galaxy A80 Review!

Truly bezel is displayed no notches, no punch holes, just a big, clean screen. Yes, it's the galaxy, II 80 were talking about and complementing this bezel less characteristic is not your regular pop up camera. It's a camera that flips around, so basically you're looking at a red camera. That is also your front. Camera. Interesting! Isn't it so when I got the review unit, I was very excited to test this phone and I did, and today I am going to share the results with you guys.

So, let's get started, so I am going to start with the best thing about this phone. The display it is this huge 6.7 inches screen with such minimum bezels that you sort of want to watch videos in it all the time, and I've had a great experience playing games as well. It's Samsung's Super AMOLED panel, no Doubts is nothing less than excellent. You get two color modes to choose from natural and rivet I, like my display to look punchy, so I kept it vivid all the times. The dark theme going around looks really cool, and you can even custom schedule it like you can turn it on during night and shut it off at daytime.

As for brightness, you get a pretty good amount both indoors and outdoors. It can go up to very low, so using it under your blanket is not going to strain your eyes a lot plus you have a blue light filter option for better protection, but I've always had complaints regarding default wallpapers. The ones that are given are not too many to choose from, and the others you got to purchase I mean I am someone who likes the default, Samsung experience and when I get a new flagship device. I would want some more choices, at least enough complaining as a whole. The 80s display is to die for, although not HD, like you, get on the s10 or 99, but a good fit panel that won't fail to impress okay.

Now this is a huge phone and pretty heavy to that, and as soon as you hold it, you will know what I am talking about, and I've not called it ergonomic as well, because the upper portion is very heavier than the lower portion, which should not be a surprise. Considering the rotating camera module sits at the top. The unit I have is in sort of off-white color, which looks very unconventional and appealing at the same time there are metal frames surrounding it that adds to the durability. The glass fact looks and feels good on the hands, but, as mentioned earlier, the phone is considerably heavier than the others, and it's large. So it might not be the most comfortable for people with small hands at the back.

The cameras are placed horizontally at the top, with a slight partition, distinguishing it from the rest of the body, the cameras protrude ever so slightly, but nothing that creates imbalance. Talking of buttons. The power button resides on the right, while the volume buttons are there on the left, and thankfully there is no Bigamy button. Considering I have not been able to ignore its presence on gayest until date, I've used this phone for quite a time now, and I used it without a cover or such, and it's pretty dope that there have appeared very minimum scratches on the back and at the front as well. Talking about the front.

This phone is protected by Gorilla Glass 3 protection, which is disappointing because Samson seems to have cut corners in the wrong areas, and since this is a premium device, I had expected more down below their licensing slots, a USB, type-c port and a single firing speaker grille. Did you find anything missing? Yes, the headphone jack and the micro SD card slot. Maybe those are definitely gone about the SD card slot, since the AAT comes with 128, GB storage inside I won't ask for more, because I think that would pretty much be enough. The absence of headphone jack, however, could be justified if they provided USB type-c earphones inside the box, or maybe a dongle that connects to a headphone jack. But neither is the case here, so I don't know what to make of it.

So if I had to judge the design, I would give it an 8 out of 10 — fewer points for being slightly heavy and bulky cameras on this thing are same both on the front and the back. After all, it's the back camera flipping to become the front as well as for now, let's run down the camera specs. First, the primary is a 48 megapixel quad pair sensor that captures to a megapixel images by a pixel bidding there's an 8 megapixel ultra wide-angle lens and the 3rd is at PD TOF sensor. Let's start with the images from the primary sensor. At first glance, you will love the image.

The colors are nice and punchy, and the overall image quality seems very good. Only. What seems missing is the details. You do have an option to capture images in 48 megapixel mode, but there is very less difference in details among the two, maybe slightest color shift, sometimes and a little more sharpness, but other than that. There is nothing remarkably different among the images of the 48 and 12 megapixel in order to check details I compared the AAT against the SM+ and found both they have less details in their pictures, but the colors are ever so slightly fancier in the STM, while the AAT produces near to natural colors, so I'd go for the AAT in terms of color reproduction, there's a 3d TOF sensor first-of-its-kind and a Samsung phone, which is one of the best things about this phone I mean the light.

Focused portrait images are too good. The background blur looks so natural and pleasant. There are quite a few options for blur switch. You can change even after taking images, so that has been really fun. As for the wide-angle images, colors and details are better on the normal shots.

As you can see in these images, the wide-angle images are not bad, though they pack in good colors, although not as good as the primary. But if you are looking for some good wide angle shots you can definitely get some from this camera. Likewise, the wide-angle images are slightly wider in the STM plus, and the colors too are better in it. So for wide-angle images are huge for the s10. There are two features that the galaxy 18 lacks when compared to the s10 number one.

There is no telephoto zoom lens and number two. You cannot shoot 4k videos at 60fps. You can take 4k videos at 30fps, but it's void of any kind of stabilization, while the 1080p at 60fps gives the best outcome with good enough stabilization. Those light warbles can be noticed at times, but all the videos look slightly washed out to my taste. So all in all the video capabilities on the Galaxy AAT is not as good as the s10.

Also, nighttime. Images too, are not comparable with the s10. Just look at these images for comparison. There's a dedicated night mode feature on the AET which the s10 recently received and like the s10 snipe mode, it does a good job in improving details and saturation and brightness levels. Okay, let's talk selfies now.

The first thing you notice is how the skin tone is remarkably color accurate. The details are fine, and the selfies look good overall. However, I am slightly disappointed here, because the selfie camera does not enjoy the same privileges as the red camera. First thing, there is no autofocus in the selfie part, you have fixed focus status at an arm's length and, secondly, there is no 4k video recording in the selfie part, the max you can go as up to 1080p. However, what you can do is take wide-angle selfies a feature not even available on the SN.

The wide-angle selfie looks likely on the darker side, but nothing to fuss about the selfie portrait also does a commendable job. On the other hand, the edge detection is good with true-to-life background, blurring there's. Also, a life focused video mode that misses out on the edge detection, yet is not bad to whine about. So all in all the galaxy AAT has good cameras during daytime it's on par with the s10 bought for videos and nighttime photography. The SN is much, much better.

The Samsung Galaxy AAT comes back in the Snapdragon 730 chipset, with 8gb of RAM, which is indeed powerful. The Snapdragon 730 is an upper mid-range chipset made on an 8 and in fabrication technique. It is better than the chipset in Snapdragon 600 series and slightly lesser than the Snapdragon 800 series and as far as the real-life performance is concerned, it does a good job, if not the best out there. However, with that price tag, they could have gone for the best indeed, but they chose otherwise. As for benchmarks, the 730 is slightly better than the Snapdragon 675 and the Snapdragon 710, but lies far behind the 855.

On the GPU side it has the Arena 618 GPU, making it slightly better than other mid-range errs. You can enjoy pop G at high settings, stutter free most of the time. Other games run well too, and the large display adds to the good gaming experience haven't experienced any sort of flag Enos or such ever, while using this phone it functions smooth and won't. Let you down a slight reality check, though the performance on the AAT is good. No doubts on that.

But if performance is your priority, you can get flagship great performance. If you add a little more money, you have options like the 107 or the Galaxy S 10 II, the Samsung Galaxy II 80 comes with Android 9pi, with Samsung's own 1u I out of the box. The one UI, as you might have known from recent Samsung phones, is very refined to say at the least. The interface is clean and flows quite nicely, and the AAT on the software side will feel like ds-10 I love, how everything is just so clean and brought down for the ease of one-handed use, although I would not recommend using it with one hand, as the phone is large and slippery back to the software, you get improved gesture navigation, a dark theme which I am in love with some additional battery settings and a good friendly interface there's also not much unnecessary things present to call it bloatware. So I am happy with this, although I am not particularly in love with the cartoon icons you get with this.

The fingerprint sensor is an in display one like the galaxy, a 50 and the 70. This means that it's not an ultrasonic one like only s 10. It's an optical one that is not very fast I would say, but will get the job done. When have we seen superfast ringer print sensors on Samsung's mid-range devices, anyways there's no face unlock feature here, which is justifiable, because then we would have to wait for the camera to pop out and rotate, which would make things slower, and I would criticize it. So it's better that we don't have it.

After all, as for battery, you get a 3700 mAh unit inside which I feel is undersized for such a huge phone on my test. Normally, the battery lasted for an entire day and I had to put it on charge. At the end of the day, always a normal day in my smartphone usage consists of some web browsing YouTube a little gaming, social media and making calls. So if you have a similar usage pattern, the battery will last you an entire day while more or less Verizon coordinating the phone comes with a 25 watt fast charge, which takes 30 minutes to get 50% juice. So around an hour and some minutes, or so you get the phone fully charged and the galaxy an ATS cameras might look fun and everything, but there is no explanation regarding the durability of the cameras, meaning it holes create chances of damage.

Similarly, it does not come with waterproofing, so I had to be extra careful with it, while holding it near sources of water. As for the audio, the single firing bottom speaker has good loudness and less distortion in high volumes. Likewise, it packs good amount of bass to go with your needs. Also using my type C headphones. The audio was good enough to my liking.

Even the call quality is very good. Samsung uses piezoelectric speaker inside the screen, which works really well. So in the end, it all comes down to whether you should get the Galaxy AAT or not, and that's a tricky question, because this one does cost you a lot of money, although a little less than the flagship and other than the rotating camera mechanism, it does fall behind the s10 in a lot of aspects like performance cameras and waterproofing and stuff. So the choice is yours: are you willing to pay an extra premium and get the no-nonsense s10 or pay less and get a unique phone with rotating cameras? Having said that, if you are a tech junky who loves experiencing new tech and has the money, then I think the Galaxy AAT is not a bad choice to go with, so that was all for the review of the galaxy a8 II tell us what you think about it in the comment section below I am Praveen Dakar, and thank you for watching.
