Samsung Galaxy Note8 camera test. Now podvyna

Antipyretic remedies for children are prescribed by a pediatrician. But there are situations of indispensable help for fevers, if the child needs to give faces negligently. Then the fathers take on themselves the resuscitation and stop the antipyretic preparations. What can be given to infants? How can you lower the temperature in older children? What are the most safe faces?

Samsung played things pretty safe regarding hardware. You can also argue that timing simply worked out this way. But, in a way that cut it, Note8 relies on the duo of current top-end chips, like S8 - Exynos 8895 and Qualcomm Snapdragon 835.

Before that, as seen in the current number of rooms and analysis, we are dissatisfied with them, that the stench is effective 10 nm silicone, hard dialing drive a flagship experience, with little compromises. Well, you can turn off Note8 options to the full through Power-user tasks as intended.

Still, Samsung's official stance on all matters regarding performance variations remain unchanged. Namely, the Korean giant wants you to believe there are not. It is insanely impossible to be superior to a highly objective technical standpoint, but we are aware of the fact that it cannot be from the USA and not US S8 units.

Both chips ha total of eight cores - a pretty standard setup. Qualcomm has its custom Kryo 280 cores working at 2.35 GHz. There could be more wiggle room in terms of maximum frequency (2.45 GHz, as estimated by Qualcomm), but there are those that Samsung won't get past. Like for Exynos 8895, but can be reassigned to M1 "Mongoose" V2 custom cores, locked at 2.3 GHz and like a hard cluster of 4 Cortex-A53 units, at 1.7 GHz.

There are some acts of recognition in the charts of the region as well: Adreno 540 on Snapdragon 835 and Mali-G71 MP20 on Exynos 8895.

Yak and іnshі tsіkavі comparisons go, we z'ednali z company "s oldder flagships, yak S7 edge and the Note5. Variations through rocks on the border between Snapdragon and Exynos fronts.

We also selected current flagships from other designers, most running on the Snapdragon 835 chip. It's worth trying for a good potential optimization comparison. Well, mi trioma Huawei's Kirin 960 chip in the mix, for good, like the Snapdragon 821.

Kicking things off with some pure CPU performance numbers and GeekBench 4 in particular, we find the Exynos-powered Note8 out-inch its S8 siblings only a few points in multi-core. Visibility is a bit more noticeable between Snapdragon 835 in phablet and S8+. This means that in Korean giant it is clearly working hard to minimize performance delta between the chips.

On more compound benchmarks and Basemark OS II 2.0. We can see clearly a lot of Snapdragon inclination here as well. At US Note8, you can work, so that you can find more points here, but in a thought, it’s really an old benchmark platform, it’s not a trivial hour for an additional handle of new types of loads. In modern Android terms, Exynos 8895 does objective handle loads better and more efficiently.

AnTuTu 6 seems to favor Snapdragon variant. However, we are happy to see that the differences are really small, meaning we can safely rule out any major substitutions in the flash storage department either. Both units we tested have 64GB chips, which appear to be equally snappy.

Mali-G71 MP20 and Adreno 540, with graphics in the middle of Exynos 8895 and Snapdragon 835, mainly due to both retailers. Back, if the S8 was unveiled and went through our reaction procedure, we are sure that a significant blow is in the Adreno 540 turn.

However, the new number is to work clearly, that the current hour of change is a great hour. In most OpenGL 3.0 and 3.1 loads, Mali-G71 MP20 seems to do better at pushing pixels on screen. However, Adreno 540 consistently displayed large frames off-screen - pretty inconsistent with what we observed on the S8 pair.

Differences start to shrink more and more with more demanding GPU loads, 2 things remain consistent - the Mali-G71 MP20 seems to perform predictably in the S8, S8+ and Note8, while the Adreno 540 in the Note8 does noticeably better S8 pair.

Digging a bit deeper, we think we're going to find a route of the problema. Looking back at the official one, Adreno 540 is guilty of a maximum hour frekvency of 710 MHz. One in our US Note8 unit does indeed match what speed. However, our S8+ Snapdragon unit is capped 40 Mhz lower at 670 Mhz.

Well, frank, the difference in GPU speed is a new discovery for us, but it concerns the Snapdragon 835 models of S8 and S8+ rather than the Note8.

Key takeaway here is that the GPU performance variation between the two note8 chipset variants is now smaller than ever.

All ts vvazhayut that only the problem will be effectively had s Note8, while vikoristannі yogo as a platform platform, schobiti z ergonomichnimi, so rozvyazannya. Do yogo quest to abolish bezels, Samsung has a lot of fixed territory for you to deprive your friends if you hold your phone horizontaly. Tse mitigate this, the OS offers especially touch rejection while in game. It’s only good to work with him, and only to compete with him, so that you can overturn the weather trend before you see the hairpin.

Granted, less curvy panel on Note8 and slightly more grippy sides on make for better horizontal handling overall. Well, at least a bit.


Phototesting Samsung Galaxy Note 8 we rozpochali day, in the minds of bright light. With whom the boules were victorious, the same zoom lens was one hour. In both types, we were left satisfied: the high detailing of the natural colors, the ale on a hundred-hundred dill, standard for Samsung, you can remember to oversharp. If you don’t want more peeps, even if for social networks, I will paint the image in full, and not a crop of a part of the picture. And if you look at the image with a magnifying glass, then remember the artifacts and deyak porridge at the bottom of the plots.

It means that the camera add-on is behind the locking of HDR (wide dynamic range) inclusions. It has become a trend of its own: automatics are designed to turn on HDR, if necessary.

Standard for smartphones here is the "Panoramas" mode, which even decently copes with its work: there is a high level of detail and an exact gluing.

SM-N950F INSTALLATION: F1.7, 26.0 mm equiv.

The software camera can take pictures in the "Dynamic focus" mode. In essence, portrait mode: the smartphone processes the outline of the object and expands the background. In this case, the image is captured on the zoom lens, and the information from the main camera is taken to assign the contour of the object. During the year you can change the background color in the "Gallery".

SM-N950F INSTALLATION: ISO 320, F2.4, 1/33s, 52.0mm equiv.

What's more, Samsung has launched another tsіkavu chip tsey mode - "Underground Zyomka". When this function is turned on, the smartphone can shoot two pictures at once: on the zoom lens from the background zoom and the zoom photo on the wide lens without zoom. In this rank, you can take two signs of a model with great plans.

SM-N950F SETTINGS: ISO 250, F1.7, 1/33s, 26.0mm equiv.

At the adopted piece lighting Galaxy Note 8 also demonstrates brilliant results: the right balance of white, accurate work of focus, great detail. This is again true for both objects: the zoom gives a miracle ability to add details and get close to the object. Moreover, the cut becomes smaller and she herself prompts the frame to change.

The occupants misinterpreted the portrait mode as “Dynamic Focus”, and lost their satisfaction. On the right, if you capture a photo in this mode, the software doesn’t only expand the background, but rather relight it. As a result, the software processing is clearly remembered, and the magic of the portrait is used up. You don’t have to worry about it, but if you do something like that after the fact, you get embarrassed.

Varto signify that the contours of the automation object are even more obvious and there are no noticeable problems when the hair is turned on.

As a result, we have such a twist: portraits are best captured simply on a zoom lens. Focal lens 52 mm (eq.) + high light F2.4 is really good at coping with this genre. Obviously, the background does not expand with this, but the brightness is visible in the arch of the temple, and with the right selection of the background, the result will be visible.

The “right size” of the Galaxy Note 8 camera is cracked when it’s dark. It’s true, it’s hard to know another smartphone with such a price for similar minds: precise focus, correct colors, high detail. Optical stabilization also helps the robot.

A two-shot zoom lens, regardless of the lower light power, also feels comfortable to shoot. True, the varto indicates that sometimes the automation switches the zoom lens to the main one with digital zoom, which makes it dark. It can be seen on our test images: to pay attention to the image and the surroundings, the values ​​​​lighten up some more expensive F1.7.

Let me tell you about the “Pro” mode, which is already standard for a Samsung camera, in which all the main adjustments are made manually and the ability to shoot in RAW format. In Galaxy Note 8, this format is reminiscent of plasticity. Significantly, those who took pictures with the help of the S Pen stylus appeared more easily, and for retouching, the tool is simply indispensable.

When changing to RAW, the smartphone does not freeze the processing algorithms and there is no troublesome Samsung oversharp. That's why the signs in the DNG-expansion on a hundred-hundred dill look even better.

The 8-megapixel front-facing camera does a good job of doing its job, providing better detail for self-portraits.

Samsung Galaxy Note 8 captures video in 4K-capable, vicorous cameras. Є th option for recording in Full HD with a speed of 60 frames per second. You can also know timelapse and upgraded videos. Especially when you take video clips, you want to see the robot optical image stabilization: you can switch between cameras, changing the large and distant plans, and shaking may be remembered. At the same time, the brightness of the image in the dark club appeared on the greatest level. Alone, shuffling between the cameras, had to gradually improve the brightness. Varto signifies and miraculous quality of sound recording.

Ale, turning to the image, the adzhes did not marvel at them at their roaring look. And when testing smartphones, we may be constantly ticking, like the pictures look on the photo paper, and not only on the screen of the display. I oskolki Galaxy Note 8 - the flagship of the highest category, we vyrishi robbitki for help Canon PIXMA PRO100S. The photo printer itself allows you to use the fantastic A3+ size (33 by 48 cm). We wonder how Samsung gets in the way of these tasks.

For drawing, we made a copy of the photo on Photo Paper Glossy in A4 format, moreover, we focused on the signs that were darkened. Otrymany result vyyavivsya even decent brightness: more detail and vіdminnі kolori.

We have not lost our doubts that the Galaxy Note 8 can easily fit into the A3 + format. Having taken away the Pro Platinum papyrus, the world drew a picture from the Chervonoy Square with a size of 33 cm by 48 cm without watering, and they were struck by the intensity: the images are clear and highly detailed.

Varto indicate that the pictures on the screen of the smartphone and on paper are identical. But the fluorescent light in our editorial office, unfortunately, played an evil heat: yes, the colors are very perturbed.

We are wondering how to take pictures from the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 in such great formats, not everyone can guess that they have a photo in front of them, uploaded on smartphones.

A look at the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 camera – the best under-mount camera of 2017. I can indefinitely bark at the ergonomics of the Galaxy Note 8 case, and if you don’t see anything on the phone, the camera is amazing. About her and take a look around.

  • Main camera: 12 MP, Dual Pixel, 1.4 µm, 1/2.55″, autofocus, sleep, optical stabilization, f/1.7+f/2.4, 2x optical zoom, 4K video recording
  • Front camera: 8 MP, f/1.7, 1/3.6", 1.22 µm

Design and transparency of the interface

Someone who loves to criticize the software shell of the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 and the stubbornness of Android, but in other elements, the Samsung retailers have poked their way far.

Let's talk about the addition of the Galaxy Note 8 camera, which, in my opinion, is one of the best and most seen among the current premium smartphones. Intelligent, clean interface of the koristuvach with a well-thought-out menu to improve the reception of the enemy.

Three of the camera add-ons, which I bachiv and test, sing-song, only Leica add-ons Huawei flagship() is implemented objectively shorter. There is more sensible viklik manual lashings and it is easier to turn on additional modes.

I was far away to know only two obvious gaps in the designed interface of the Note 8 camera:

  1. The camera often stray swipe to the right for wiki mode front camera. The decal was drawn, especially if the term wanted to be done by hand. That's why I guessed the program Huawei Leica, de inclusion of the Pro mode is implemented elegantly.
  2. Clicking on the button to record video is not in the off mode, but immediately starts recording. Tsezh such a solution, even more richly zrozumіlіshe, yakbi photo mode and video capture are small in size.

Otherwise, the design and ergonomics of the Galaxy Note 8 software cameras (and other Samsung flagships) hush. With all the usual noise, the Note 8 will be handy.


According to the decision of the Samsung retailers, put all the updated photos and videos of the part in one window. Adjustments for the front camera are also saved there. In my opinion, it’s handy that you don’t need to climb all the windows in all modes, but you can immediately adjust the skin mode in one window.

Functionality

Dribni pardons of the Galaxy Note 8 camera interface may become unrecognizable on a tlі її znachnyh. functionality. We take all the chips in order.

Photo

Auto mode. Which mode of the Galaxy Note 8 camera add-on has a minimum of possibilities. Samsung is focusing on the Bixby camera, Dynamic Focus and Stickers.



You can vmikati/vimikati sleeping, switch to the front camera and open it up. Possibility of enhancing the interface without black borders.


Pressing on the circle x2 activates the teleobjective. Switching from one camera to another may be mittevo, moreover, video recordings are necessary.

Now a report about Stickers and Dynamic focus:

Stickers- these are essentially interactive masks, on the other hand, Snapchat has them or Instagram Stories. It’s not clear how much stickers will be added to a business-oriented smartphone for 70,000 rubles, but it’s still unclear.





A respectable uncle is really going to be greeted with stickers, putting deer antlers up to his head? I don’t think it’s more like a rogue in the Samsung marketing team.

Dynamic Focus– full portrait mode. When activated, the background fades in, and the capture object is seen software methods. In order to make a picture with dynamic focusing, it is necessary to stand at a distance of 1.2 meters from the object of the survey.



Pratsyuє portrait mode quickly and pomilyaєєєєєєєєєєє rarely, yakscho back body is not too foldable. On heterogeneous aphids (leaves, flowers, contrasting plots) the appearance of artifacts is possible.

Video

As I said above, you can often capture a video directly from the Auto mode, simply click on the open button and immediately start recording. The interface is as simple as possible - good and bad at the same time. For the best coristuvachs, such a pidhid will be as easy as possible, but the protruding coristuvachi will be lacking in possibilities (for a moment of manual focusing, making the sound thin, like in the LG G6).

Under the hour of zjomki, you can go to one chamber to the next, pushing the circle x2.

Galaxy Note 8 camera modes

Pro Mode. Manual camera mode Samsung Galaxy Note 8 implementations in the best traditions of the flagship Android-smartphones. Aside from standard speeches, you can change the exposure, vitrims, focusing distance and ISO, here you can increase the focus area (a sprat focus point or one in the center). More є zamіr ekpozitsії, like in "grown-up" cameras - matrix, dot and centering. I recommend vikoristati remaining.



Panorama. A program has been created, as if it will be a horizontal panorama. Gluing goes smoothly, if you do not shake the phone, then you can achieve good results.


Spovilnena Zyomka. The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 camera captures up to 240 fps video in HD in a separate location. Sparsely on the aphids of a cool slow-mo, as a whole as part of the flagships of 2017 rock.

Hyperlapse. Samsung crushed double hyperlapse and time lapse in one mode, in this way hurry up video you can take it both by hand and on a tripod.

zha. Even more marvelous mode, like calls to the growth of photography and appetizing. Really mary.

virtual zyomka. And the axis tsya mozhlivist really delivered. For the help of virtual capture, you can work 3D images of any unruly objects and inspire people. Otrimany result can be twisted under the be-yakim kutom at the firm's gallery.


Nalashtuvannya

The improved cameras of the Galaxy Note 8 have gained respect that the HDR algorithms are expanding not only to the main subway, but also to the front camera.






It is necessary that you can set up a different building and the parameters of the rent for a photo and video right in one window. It's cool, if it's not necessary to have riches with different victories at the poshukakh nalashtuvan.

The sign of the rush is a cicava trick for lovers of GIFs. Pratsyuє for the principle of Live Photos in the iPhone. Before skin photography, I record a short video clip.

Є Swedish launch cameras. After activating this parameter, the camera can be started by a quick moving pressure on the live button.

How to take the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 camera

In short, the Galaxy Note 8 camera is amazing. But I think you want proofs, so you will give a couple of examples of signs.

Photoshoot

Take good pictures - the best important factor if we talk about the quality of the camera of the flagship smartphone. That’s why we’ll do it for ourselves from photo shoots.

Test photos of Samsung Galaxy Note 8.

Denna zyomka (gorty right-handed):

Nichna zyomka:

Regardless of the slight oversharp in certain scenes, the Galaxy Note 8 camera is competently handled with a white balance, it can even have a quick and crisp autofocus. The signs always look clear and contrasting, as if you are not a fan of messing around with editors before editing photos to Instagram, then you should sing the Galaxy Note 8 camera better.

However, we do not call it that. Let them show you how to use the iPhone 8 Plus / 7 Plus with the pictures, it’s easier, lower the photo, take it from the Galaxy Note 8. The iPhone takes a smaller view, turn it off, then “twist” such pictures in Snapseed one satisfied. Samsung engineers went a different way, rudely seeming, putting the editor right into the camera algorithms. Therefore, the signs on the Galaxy Note 8 look always more visible and brighter, lower on other premium smartphones

Portrait mode Samsung Galaxy Note 8

Let's take a closer look at the robot's portrait mode on the Galaxy Note 8 camera. Wonder how sweetly Samsung's camera algorithms (dynamic focus mode) see the capture object. In my opinion, the quality of such portraits in the Galaxy Note 8 is better, lower in iPhones with a hanging camera.




With the lack of lighting, the Note 8 TV does not deprive the iPhone of a chance. Zavdyaki optical stabilization and more light optical (F / 2.4 for Note 8 vs. F / 2.8 for iPhone 8 Plus / 7 Plus), Galaxy Note 8 is the only smartphone on the market, which is a building sign on such a level. New portrait zoom for the Galaxy Note 8.

Video capture

Mensch important parameter for more koristuvachiv, but even more important for fans of watching videos on a smartphone. So people are ready to give up on any photo, abi zyomka video bula at the maximum level. Therefore, here I have selected all the possible tests with a different distribution of buildings and FPS.

In the skin test, I hit two cameras of the Galaxy Note 8, so that I could see the building TV next to the main wide-angle camera, and also marvel at the speed of switching from camera to camera and stabilization robot.

Test for recording FHD 30 fps video in an indestructible state:

Video recording test FHD 30 fps in Russia (stabilization review):

FHD 60 fps recording test for an indestructible stand:

Test recording FHD 60 fps in Russia (stabilization review):

Test recording video 4K 30 fps in an unbreakable state:

Test recording 4K 30 fps in Russia (stabilization review):

In FHD 60 fps mode, the camera does not allow switching to the TV. I don’t know through what kind of exchange is installed, but if the stabilization robot is weak in this mode on the main camera, Samsung engineers could worry that there would be a strong “shake” on the TV.

It’s more important than anything, so it’s important to know that in 60 FPS mode it’s really important, it’s obvious that optical stabilization in this mode doesn’t work, even mentioning the difference between stabilization in FHD 30 fps and FHD 60 fps.

Visnovok

Regardless of my double exposure to Samsung smartphones of that software, I know that the cameras of their flagships are among the best on the market. The Galaxy Note 8 is especially worthy of its sub-camera, as it is on its head, lower than its competitors.


For the challenge to look around the Galaxy Note 8 sample at Samsung Service Plaza in Minsk. Tse most official service center that one-hour company store of smartphones and Samsung accessories.At Samsung Services Plaza, you can be quick and easy, when repairing phones is carried out in the presence of the client.

At the very beginning of autumn, Samsung officially introduced to the Russian market its black model of the already legendary Galaxy Note series of tablet phones. In Moscow, in Gorky Park, a demonstration of the novelty of the eighth generation took place. I will call the device Samsung Galaxy Note 8, like the flagship Galaxy S8, having taken off the same borderless (an epithet, a tribute to Samsung itself) screen with an already thin frame, as well as possessing the best camera at the moment among Samsung smartphones and, obviously, an indispensable attribute of us Note with the S Pen.

Samsung Galaxy Note 8 comes in a black cardboard box with a minimal design and a rich interior.

The smartphone package includes a charging cable with a USB Type-C socket, a wire adapter with an external stream, which varies, and a voltage of 5/9 V 1.67/2 A, a tool for SIM card identification, a Micro-USB adapter — USB Type-C, USB-to-USB Type-C adapter, as well as other AKG double-driver stereo headphones with a set of internal channel-type replacement overlays.

Zovnіshnіy vglyad that zruchnіst vikoristannya

Samsung brought the results of its top line of smartphones - Galaxy S and Note - to a single design, now the Galaxy Note 8 practically does not look like the Galaxy S8 +, especially on the front panel.

Insignificant details are less pronounced at the larger radius of rounding of the apex parts of the body and the trochs on the other side of the milled elements on the tail side.

Obviously, the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 may be a nest for the invariable attribute of a representative of the Note series - an electronic pen, which has shaped the unique name of the S-Pen. The pen is inserted into the butt from the bottom and flickered there. Now it is impossible to build yoga in a different way, having broken all the fillings, as it was traplesya with one of the front models of the series - Samsung starts on its pardons.

The case itself is folded from two absolutely symmetrical glasses with strongly curved sidewalls and rear along the perimeter of the metal frame of the folding form. The frame expands on the upper and lower ends and sounds from both sides, so we know about the design of Samsung Galaxy mobile devices, we started copying some Chinese craftsmen - the butt of Bluboo S8 is in front of our eyes.

The device with a 6.3-inch miniature display cannot be named exactly. It’s worth getting a great smartphone, but for the sound of a sounded body, it’s comfortable on the sides of the screen 18.5: 9. Widgets of fingers can appear not only on glassy panels, but also on beech frames, shards of lacquered and glossy ones. However, the hull is not forged at the fingers, the chain of food is well thought out.

On the tilnіy storonі roztashovana podvіyna camera, scho judge zі spalakhom, a scanner of fingertips and a heart rate sensor; move the front panel over the sensory screen, front camera, loudspeaker and LED light indicator.

At the bottom part under the screen there is no fingerprint scanner, no hardware buttons, buttons that control, here the screen. The button bar, at some point, you can tidy up the screen and click back, and at startup singing additions, for example, igor, the system itself prompts you to switch to the second screen mode without displaying the keys.

There are three keys on both faces, not two, but three: one more button was added to the buttons of density and vitality, for the wiki of the Bixby branded smart assistant, which did not learn how to practice Russian language. The keys are great, may be soft, albeit different, and traditionally there are no daily claims to these elements in Samsung smartphones.

The rose for the insertion of cards here is not stitched on the side, but on the upper end. Behind the help of a complete tool, a sled for SIM cards and cards is hanging from the new microSD memory. The “dual-sim” hybrid option allows you to insert either two Nano-SIM cards, or one Nano-SIM and one microSD.

The lid of this rose can be gummed with a gasket, the shards of the device are securely protected from falling into the middle of the body of the water and the saw according to the IP68 standard: it is allowed to pierce the fresh water at a depth of up to 1.5 m with a stretch of 30 strands.

There is a cream rose for cards on the top end and an additional microphone for a robotic noise reduction system.

At the bottom end, all the elements are selected, so they sound different on two ends: C (how to sound, asymmetrically spreading along the central axis). Here you can find a better nest for an electronic pen.

The device is available for black (“Black Diamond”), blue (“Blue Sapphire”) and golden (“Yellow Topaz”) zabarvlenni. The front panel under the fold is always filled with black color.

Screen

Samsung Galaxy Note 8 equipped with a Super AMOLED display with curved sides let's go crazy. Expand the screen to approximately 71 × 145 mm with a diagonal of 6.3 inches (without fixing the rounded edges). Razdіlna zdatnіst datnіst at tsimu to become 2960 × 1440, the width of the point is close to 522 ppi, the ratio of the sides is 18.5: 9.

Before the speech, at the end of the conversation at the smartphone, a change in the distribution of buildings was set Full screen HD + (2220 × 1080), and it is necessary to independently manually reduce WQHD + (2960 × 1440) to the maximum in the settings.

The width of the frame around the screen is minimal: from both sides it does not exceed 2 mm;

The brightness of the display can be adjusted manually or it can be automatically adjusted based on the robotic ambient light sensor. Test multi-touch diagnostics for 10 one-hour torrents.

Detailed expertise on the selection of vimiruvalnyh priladіv provіv editor of distributions "Monіtori" and "Projector and TB" Oleksiy Kudryavtsev. We suggest some expert thought about the screen of the last streak.

The front surface of the screen is vikonan at the sight of a glass plate made of a mirror-smooth surface, resistant to the appearance of undercuts. Judging by the display of objects, the screen anti-bliss is shorter than the Google Nexus 7 (2013) screen (we gave it simply Nexus 7). For accuracy, we point a photograph, on which the white screens show the surface (left-handed - Nexus 7, right-handed - Samsung Galaxy Note 8, further they can be distinguished by size):

The screen of the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is a little darker (the brightness behind the photos is 109 vs. 114 for the Nexus 7) and doesn't show much. The two objects displayed on the screen of the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 are rather weak, it is worth mentioning that there is no visible interplay between the balls on the screen. For the Rahunov of the member number of Cordonіv (type SKLO / PRITRY) Z strongly rose to Krayfіtsієnti stroke Escrana without a virtual promіzhka Castor Visigayychennya, Alla їx, Repair from the Vipadka Potrіskaya Zovnichnoye Skala to do Nabagato Roads, so Yak Mіniyi is to communicate Ekran Tsіlkom. On the outer surface of the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 screen, there is a special oleophobic (fatty) cover (more efficient, shorter, lower in Nexus 7), which is much easier to see in the eyes of the fingers, and they are less swvidkistyu, lower at the sound slope.

When a white field was shown on the whole screen and with manual shading, the maximum value was 335 cd / m² in the highest minds, in the arc of a bright light it rises to 510 cd / m². It is also necessary to protect the fact that in a given situation, the less white area on the screen, the more light, so that the actual maximum clarity of the larger plots will be more likely to be higher for the indicated value. The results of reading a day in the sun may be on the edge of the river. The minimum value is 1.9 cd / m², so that a decrease in the radiance of the lightness without problems allows you to streak the feathers at the top of the darkness. Practice automatic regulation brightness according to the lightness sensor (when opening the levoruch through the opening of the frontal guchnomovtsya). The robot’s function is to lie down in the position of the bellowing of the regulation of the brightness, the coristuvach can try to set the rhyme of the brightness in the stream minds. If you strip everything for your mind, then in the new darkness the function of auto-brightness changes the brightness to 7 cd / m² (darkish), in the minds of an office illuminated by a piece of light (approximately 550 lux) it is set to 150 cd / m² (normal), in a brightly ) Illuminate on a clear day after the reception, but without direct dormouse light - 20,000 lux or a little more) raises up to 510 cd / m² (to the maximum, so it is necessary). The result is not known to us by the authorities, to that in the darkness the trochs increased the brightness, taking the following values ​​out of the result for three minds that were more important: 12, 150, 510 cd / m² (ideally more). To come out, that the function of autopilot construction works adequately and sings the world allowing coristuvachevy to improve your work for individual vimogi. To be fair, there is a significant modulation with a frequency of 60 or 240 Hz. Below, the fallowness of radishness (vertical height) is indicated in the hour (horizontal verti- cal

It can be seen that at the maximum (“100%+” - due to the additional illumination of the illumination sensor, we are bright with light) and close to it, the amplitude of the modulation is not even large, as a result of the visible noise is silent. However, with a decrease in brightness, modulation with a large excitatory amplitude appears, and the presence can be tested in the test for the presence of a stroboscopic effect, or simply with a Swedish eye. Fallow due to individual sensitivity, such merehtinnya can call for increased stubbornness.

This screen has a Super AMOLED matrix - an active matrix on organic light-emitting diodes. The multi-color image is created behind the additional sub-pixels of three colors - red (R), green (G) and blue (B), and there are twice as many green sub-pixels, which can be recognized as RGBG. This is confirmed by a fragment of microphotography:

For comparison, you can take a look at the gallery of microphotographs of screens, which are featured in mobile technology.

On a fragment, you can put 4 green subpixels, 2 red (4 halves) and 2 blue (1 cell and 4 quarters), with this, repeating the fragments, you can lay out the entire screen without opening and flipping. For such matrices, Samsung has ordered the name PenTile RGBG. The virobnik allowed the screen for green subpixels, for the other two wines it will be lower. The expansion of that form of subpixels in this option is close to the drop of the Samsung Galaxy S4 screen and some of the other new Samsung devices (and not only) with AMOLED screens. This version of PenTile RGBG is shorter, lower than the old one with red squares, blue rectangles and green subpixels. Protedeyak unevenness of contrasting cordons and other artifacts are still present. Vіm, through the arch of the temple, the roiling building stench is less than minimally signified on the quality of the image.

The screen is characterized by miraculous kuta look around. True, the white color, when worn on small kuti, is filled with a light bluish-green and erysipelas color, and the black color is overlaid with just black, be it kuta. The flooring is black, so the contrast parameter does not stop in any direction. To match, we hover over the photos that are on the screen of the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 (profile Basic) that other participant showed the same image, with which the clarity of the screens was set to approximately 200 cd / m², and the color balance on the camera was switched to 6500 K.

More field:

Significantly good is the evenness of lightness and the color tone of the white field (behind a slight darkening and changing the color to curled edges).

І test picture (profile Basic):

The transfer of colors is good, the colors are the most abundant in the world, the color balance of the screens is trochic. Guess what the photo is can't to serve as an important reference for information about the quality of transmission of color and to be directed only for intellectual educational illustration. Zokrem, reddish reflections of white and gray fields, present in the photographs on the screen of Samsung Galaxy Note 8, with a perpendicular look visually on the day, which is confirmed by the apparatus tests of the spectrophotometer. The reason is that the spectral sensitivity of the camera's matrix does not change so much with the characteristic of the human eye. Respectfully, in this view, the picture takes up the height (in landscape orientation of the screen) all the area available for viewing the image and enters on the curved edges of the screen, in order to darken that created color. Also, in the light of the region, it may always glare, which makes it even more important to review the image, shown on the whole screen. І visit the picture of the film from the 16:9 seperate sides to go to the fold, which will set the hour for watching the movie.

The photo was taken after the choice of profile Basic in the settings of the screen, all of them:

Profile adaptive display it seems to be automatic substroyuvannya color transfers for the type of image and the need to understand:

The population is greatly reduced, looking greedy. What to enter when choosing two profiles, which are left out, is shown below.

Movie AMOLED:

The number of troch is less.

Photo AMOLED:

The density of the red troch is lower, lower at the top Movie AMOLED.

Now under the hood is approximately 45 degrees to the flat and to the side of the screen (profile Basic).

More field:

Brightness under the hood in both screens has changed noticeably (to avoid a strong blackout, the window display is larger and equal to the front photos), but at the Samsung angle the drop in brightness is significantly less. As a result, while formally the same brightness, the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 screen visually looks richly bright (paired with RK-screens), which is why the screen of a mobile annex is often marveled at least under a small hood.

І test picture:

It can be seen that the colors did not change much on both screens and the brightness of the Samsung smartphone is remarkable. The switching between elements of the matrix will be practically muted, but on the front of the switch-on there may be a convergence with a width of approximately 17 ms (which indicates a screen refresh rate of 60 Hz). For example, this is how the fallowness of lightness looks at the hour when going from black to white and back:

In some minds, the presence of such gatherings can lead to trails, to reach for objects, to collapse. Wt_m, the dynamic scenes of films on OLED screens are breathtakingly clear and inspire a kind of "smikannym" ruhіv.

Based on 32 points with an equal interval for numerical values, the gray gamma curve showed that there is no source blockage either in the light or in the shadows. The indicator of the approximate static function is 2.04, which is less than the standard value of 2.2, at which the gamma-curve of the troch is real, depending on the static fallow:

Let's guess that in different OLED screens, the brightness of fragments of the image dynamically changes to the nature of the image, which appears - changes for a bright image as a whole. As a result, the fallowness of the glare in the eye (gamma-curve) was eliminated, better than everything, the trochs did not show the gamma-curves of the static image, so the simulation was carried out during the subsequent viewing of the gray-haired maize on the whole screen.

Colourfullness in different profiles adaptive display narrower wide - wider, lower DCI-P3:

At profile Movie AMOLED chopping troch is already, vіn is practically more expensive DCI-P3:

When choosing a profile Photo AMOLED coolness goes up to Adobe RGB cordons:

When choosing a profile Basic coolness shrinks to between sRGB:

Without correction of the spectrum of the components in a good separation:

Different profile Basic with the maximum correction of the components and colors, it is already noted one to one:

Significantly, on screens with a wide range of colors (without color correction), the colors of great images optimized for sRGB settings look unnaturally oversized. Stars and recommendations: the best cinema, photography and everything is naturally more beautiful when choosing a profile Basic, and if the photo is only edited with Adobe RGB, you can switch the profile to Photo AMOLED. Similarly, profile Movie AMOLED early afternoon I will review the video material with DCI-P3 caps, accepted by digital cinematography.

The balance of sounds on the gray scale is good. The color temperature is close to 6500 K, moreover, on a significant difference in the gray scale, this parameter does not change much, which improves the visual balance of colors. The difference in the spectrum of an absolutely black body (E) on the greater part of the gray scale is below 10 units, which is considered a good indicator for a calm annex:

(The darker areas of the gray scale in the greater brightness can not be trusted, because the balance of colors there is not of great importance, the change of color characteristics to low brightness is great.)

Chomus only when choosing a profile adaptive display it is possible to improve the color balance of three by adjusting the intensity of the main colors, but after a too wide color scheme itself in this profile, there is no sense to correct the balance itself.

Є fashionable function blue light filter, For that, in the settings, a white-mensh correct description has been added (in the equalizer menu, there is a more written error for “lowering the eye voltage”, well, garazd):

Why such a correction can be corny is explained in the article about the iPad Pro 9.7. If you’re in a mood, when you’re using a tablet or a smartphone, you’d better lower the brightness of the screen to a minimum, even more comfortable level, and then, to calm your paranoid paranoia, turn the screen back on.

Let's bring the bags. The screen may be even higher than the maximum brightness and may have anti-bliss, so without special problems it is possible to add a posture to the hosts on a summer sleepy day. In darkness, the brightness can be reduced to a comfortable value. It is permissible to change the mode with automatic adjustment of the brightness, which works adequately. It is necessary to see an effective oleophobic coating before the screen is exceeded, as well as a cool color close to sRGB (if you choose the right profile) and a good color balance. At the same time, we tell you about the main advantages of OLED screens: the right black color (as nothing is displayed on the screen), it is noticeably smaller, lower in the Republic of Kazakhstan, a drop in the brightness of the image when looking at the bottom. You can see the modulation of the brightness of the screen up to nedolіkіv. Coristuvachis, who are especially sensitive to merekhtinya, may have a heightened stubbornness. Tim is not smaller, the brightness of the screen is as high as a glare. Okremo it is significant that from the point of view of the brightness of the image in the curved edges is less than shkoda, so as a designer’s knowledge to bring in the creation of a color tone and a change in the brightness at the edges of the picture, and in the minds of the bright illumination to bring it to the inevitable

Camera

The front module removed the sensor with a separate 8 MP sensor and a bright lens with an aperture of f/1.7 without a wet cover, but with autofocus. The brightness of the image is hostile: to enter as clear as possible, bright picture with high detail and sharpness across the entire field of the frame.

Є “Stickers” mode, in which you can add to your portraits comedy details. Ale here is already yakist, naturally, richly lower. I realized that such a program can always be installed on any other smartphone, but it’s already been put in the lock. Obviously, there is the function of self-portrait correction (you can change the tone of the coat, sound the appearance, correct the shape of the eyes just a bit).

As the main camera is based on a set of two modules with the same separate 12 MP matrix, but with different lenses: one with an aperture of f / 1.7, the other with an aperture of f / 2.4. The main lens with a 2x optical zoom allows you to take a clear picture in the proximity mode. Washing modules optical stabilization image.

The live focus function allows you to work effective images from the side (brightness to the background), moreover, you can choose the depth of sharpness with the ability to choose. With the function of shooting light for two lenses, the camera can capture two pictures at once: the main lens focuses on the details of the object that is being photographed, at that hour, as a wide-angle lens, it captures a wider picture.

In the manual adjustment mode, you can change the vitrim (from 1/24000 to 10 s), light sensitivity (ISO 50 - 800), white balance, select the type of focus and exposure adjustment). In this mode, you can take pictures in RAW format(in parallel with JPEG).

The camera can capture video at the maximum resolution of 4K, as well as Full HD (1920 × 1080) at 60 and 30 fps. All top modes have image stabilization, which is commendable. The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 camera performs well with the majority of today's mobile devices, wanting to stabilize and add some “halo-like” effects for an hour. The image is clearer, smoother, with sharpness and high detail, with a reliable color transfer. The sound can also be recorded clearly and cleanly, the noise reduction system with additional microphones copes with its tasks adequately.

The text is good practice.
The camera does a wonderful job with macro.
Good sharpness and detail on the field of the frame and behind the plans.
Macrozoomka at the occupant's chamber is good.
Bad work from the shadows.
Sharping is practically daily.
Navіt in shadows the detail is not bad.

Pro garnu camera one can not say so richly, except that she is good. It is worth noting that the progress in the field of smartphone cameras still does not stand still, and the insults of the “chamber” giants delight us with the novelties of this autumn. Maybe, Samsung stopped chasing after the frame size and vague "chips", as if trying to screw other cameras to their cameras in order to create the illusion of progress. Now the brightness is again coming to the fore, and the camera modules still do not work properly, so they should be more and more effective.

The wide-cut module did not change much: the wine itself is not so evil software processing, kindly see the details on the field of the frame and behind the plans and practically do not call out the narration. Keep the maximum value of the razdіlnoї zdatnostі in JPEG is not so high on the aphids of competitors, RAW does not fully compensate. Virobnik still could not manage to overcome the noise due to the low lightness of the flooring, so that he could turn them off with a splash of air and win over the building.

Already another rіk continues the fashion for teleobjectives in smartphones. If you just insert a camera with a telephoto lens and then, having recognized the test inadvertently, you try to come up with a specific zastosuvannya module, but if you want to bring it to the mind, creating a completely "television camera", as you practically don’t compromise on a wide-angle lens. They went to Samsung in a different way, and now smartphones have a telephoto lens that allows you to see objects in the distance in high quality with fine detail. In fact, the smartphone has an all-round optical zoom.

Traditionally, you can make visnovok, so that the camera can easily fit into any plots.

Telephone part and communication

The communication capabilities of the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 are rich: they turn on the transmission support in a larger range in the LTE FDD and TD networks. In addition, naturally, all the widest on the territory of our edge of the frequency range (Band 3, 7 and 20 FDD LTE) are supported. Also, support for several TDD LTE bands (Band 38-41). Supported by LTE Cat.16 (up to 1 Gb/s). At the borders of the Moscow region, the apparatus should be guided, it does not sound like a received signal, the apparatus demonstrates high speed at the primary turning places, it sounds fast after the shave.

Supports two bands of Wi-Fi (2.4 and 5 GHz) VHT80 MU-MIMO, 1024-QAM, Bluetooth 5.0 LE, ANT+, you can organize a wireless access point via wifi channels or Bluetooth. Є NFC module, but, unfortunately, it does not work in full with the Triyka cards and My Prozny add-on.

The navigation module works with GPS (with A-GPS), with domestic Glonass and with Chinese Beidou. The first satellites at a cold start show up for tens of seconds, the accuracy of the positioning of the Moscow region is sufficient. Є vbudovaniya magnetic field sensor for the function of the compass.

The phone program supports Smart Dial, so every hour when dialing a phone number, it will immediately ask for the first letters in contacts. Methods for sorting and sorting contacts are standard for Android, sorting contacts can be by name or name, those same and from a phone contact. This is a version of a smartphone with two SIM-cards, but our test device was only used in one.

Software security and multimedia

How is the software platform victorious OS Android version 7.1.1 Update Opportunity (OTA). The corporate shell here is the same, like the Samsung Galaxy S8 +, for a win, of course, a program for robots with an electronic pen.

The electronic pen, the tip of which in the Galaxy Note 8 is similar to the Galaxy Note 5, is noticeably thinner (becoming a total of 0.7 mm vs. 1.6 mm), while recognizing 4096 steps to press. With this help, you can create folding figures from images, so that you can expand them and insert them into other images, you can create handwritten signatures to photos and animated GIFs. Bula was created to navit social network Penup is a special place for sharing your creativity, created with the aid of the S Pen. Notes, like before, can be recorded without waking up the screen, if you work in the Always On Display mode.

Another feature of modern devices Samsung Galaxy S and Note is the possibility of having curved sidewalls of their screens. As a result, the visibility of the white frame and the white parts of the screen are accessible between the fingers. As before, on the side of the screen you can enter a virtual companion, which lights up, when pressed, the menu pops up, which shows contacts and mitigates access to winning programs. So here you can see the possibility of seeing that saving whether it is a part of the screen with a further recognition of the text.

There are not many add-on programs, and ti, scho є, are represented mainly by a well-known set of power utilities ( Samsung Gear, Connect, Health, etc.), as well as family Microsoft software. You can use the Game Launcher, which increases the productivity of the system when launching selected games to improve the game process and allows you to record the game process on video.

For listening to music, only the regular Google Play Music player was transferred, supplemented by an elaborate set of manual adjustments and equalizer presets, as well as Adapt Sound technology for headphones. The kit with a smartphone comes with two-driver AKG headphones with a sound quality that is not good for its equal. The sound of the main speaker is quite hostile. Vіn vidaє dosit odnomanіtny and flat sound, without commemorative depth and density, wanting to purity and the stock of richness of everyday claims is not.

The voice recorder with multiple options demonstrates sensitive sensitivity, a smartphone is a complete accessory for recording interviews and lectures.

Productivity

The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 hardware platform will be based on the Samsung Exynos 8895 Octa SoC with 8 cores in two clusters: 4 Exynos M1 cores with a frequency of up to 2.3 GHz and 4 ARM Cortex-A53 cores with a frequency of up to 1.7 GHz. SoC vikonan behind 10nm process technology. For the editing of the graphics, I give you the video clip Mali-G71 for the help of the Vulkan graphic API. The total RAM is 6 GB, and the flash memory is 64 GB, of which about 2.7 GB of RAM and 51.7 GB of ROM are available on the cob. You can get more expensive options from 128 or 256 GB of flash memory.

Sound for Samsung, Galaxy devices can be based on different SoCs: Galaxy Note 8 modification based on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 platform.

Possibility to expand the memory for the microSD card slot, you can transfer programs to the memory card.

For sub-bags of tests SoC Samsung Exynos 8895 ochіkuvano showed the maximum results, the price of the most powerful mobile platform Samsung at the moment. The smartphone is capable of coping with any tasks in real-life scenarios, and for an exhausted video player - and with any powerful games. For help with the help of the Game Launcher program, you can not only record the game process on video, but also turn on the re-enabled mode, whether it's a game. Irrespective of the unexpected speed of the side of the screen, navit and blame the advance, the game is all the same as a result of working without everyday problems.

Testing in complex tests AnTuTu and GeekBench:

All the results, taken by us when testing a smartphone in the latest versions of popular benchmarks, were taken to the table for clarity. At the table, add a small number of other devices from different segments, as well as protests on similar remaining versions of benchmarks (you should not hesitate to take an initial assessment of the dry numbers). Unfortunately, within the framework of one match, it is not possible to present the results different versions benchmarks, that "behind the scenes" are filled with a lot of good and current models - through those that stench in their time passed "smuha reshkod" on the front versions of test programs.

Graphics subsystem testing in 3DMark, GFXBenchmark and Bonsai Benchmark game tests:

When tested in 3DMark for the most productive smartphones, it is now possible to run the program in Unlimited mode, the expansion of rendering is fixed at 720p and VSync is enabled (through which the speed can be higher than 60 fps).

If you need to use benchmarks to evaluate the speed of the javascript engine, then you need to start working on those that have results in them that can lie in the browser, in which they are launched, so that the comparison can be correct only on the same OS and browsers, but this is not possible when testing wait. For Android, we always need to tweak Google Chrome.

The results of the AndroBench test for the speed of robots with memory:

Heat sink

Thermal light is induced below rear surface, subtracting after 10 minutes of work to test the battery in the GFXBenchmark program:

Heating is strongly localized more to the center and close to the left edge, which, perhaps, shows the expansion of the SoC microcircuit. Behind the data of the heat chamber, the maximum heating became 41 degrees (at the temperature of the usual heat of 24 degrees), the average heating in this test for modern smartphones.

Video creation

To test the "all-inclusiveness" when creating videos (including the support of various codecs, containers and special capabilities, for example subtitles), we stopped the widest formats, thus establishing the main mass of content, which is in Merezh. Respectfully, what for mobile outbuildings it is important for mothers to support hardware decoding of video clips on the chip level, it is most impossible to obtain modern options for the computer with only processor cores. Also, it’s not possible to check in the mobile annex for decoding everything, shards of leadership in terms of flexibility lie with the PC, and no one dares to insult it. All results are tabulated.

Away testuvannya video vikonav Oleksiy Kudryavtsev.

This device supports DisplayPort Alt Mode for USB Type-C to display the image and sound on the external device when connected to the USB port. We tried the robot in this mode together with a monitor that can input USB Type-C, as well as (companies). Video is played in 1080p mode at 60 Hz frame rate. With a portrait orientation of the smartphone screen, the picture on the Full HD monitor is displayed inscribed in height with wide black margins on the sides, and in landscape orientation, inscribed in width with narrow black margins on the bottom. Significantly, once you see the image and sound, you can connect a mouse and a keyboard via USB to your smartphone, turning it into the basis for a working space, and for that an adapter or a monitor is responsible for allowing connection of external devices. It is also propagated by the virobnik that it allows vicoristing for the working area of ​​a significant periphery.

To test the display of video files on the main screen (only 4K files) and on the screen of the attachment itself, we tested a set of test files with an arrow and a rectangle, which moved one subframe per frame (div. for mobile) extensions)"). Signs on the screen with a 1-second video display helped to determine the nature of the video files' frames display with different parameters: the size difference was varied (1280 by 720 (720p), 1920 by 1080 (1080p) and 3840 by 2160 (4K) pixels) and 60 fps). In our tests, the MX Player video player was selected in the Hardware mode. The results of the test are summarized in the table:

4K/25p
File Equity Overflows
Viewing on the monitor
4K/60p (H.265) miraculously no
4K/50p (H.265) miraculously no no
720/25p miraculously no
720/24p miraculously no

Note: Same in both sides Equityі Overflows exhibited greenery ratings, which mean that, it’s better for everything, when looking at films of artifacts, calling out to uneven drawing and skipping shots, otherwise you won’t be able to see them, otherwise their number and memory are not indicative of a comfortable review. Chervoni icons point to possible problems pov'yazanі z vіdvorennyam vіdpovidnyh files.

According to the criterion for displaying frames, the quality of video files being created on the screen itself is even better, since frames (or groups of frames) can be displayed with larger or smaller equal intervals without skipping frames. When playing video files from a 1920 wide building at 1080 (1080p) on a smartphone screen, the image in the video file is displayed exactly as a narrow border of the screen, going to the fold. The clarity of the picture of the temple is, if not ideal, the fact that the interpolation to the razdilnost of the screen is nowhere to go. Vtіm, for the sake of experiment, you can switch to the mode one to one by pixels, interpolation will not be, but PenTile features will appear: vertical light through a pixel will be in a grid, and horizontally - a little greenish. It remains true only for test light, on real frames, artifacts that are described are daily. The range of brightness that appears on the screen, in fact, appears standard range 16-235: the shadows are close to six, and the lights of the whole pair are angry with black and white. It is significant that in this smartphone there is support for hardware decoding of H.265 files with a deep color of 10 bits per color, when viewed on the screen, it is displayed in 8-bit mode.

Hour of autonomous work

Unknown battery for battery, installed in Samsung Galaxy Note 8, capacity 3300 mAh per year. Not to say that the hero, looking around, demonstrates records of autonomy, but in principle, looking at the majestic screen with a high-rise building, everything is not so bad.

In real life, the device behaves the same way, like the majority of today's smartphones: it is guaranteed to live up to the evening charge, but you can not risk it for more.

Sound testing was carried out to the highest level of energy saving without victorious energy saving functions.

Uninterrupted reading in the Moon + Reader program (with a standard, light theme) with a minimum comfortable brightness level (the clarity was set at 100 cd / m²) with auto-leafers, it took about 15 years to fully charge the battery, and with uninterrupted viewing of video 72 with the same equal brilliance through home Merezha Wi-Fi the device functions no more than 12 years. In 3D-igor mode, the smartphone can last up to 4.5 years.

Podbag

Zavdyaki of the presence of an electronic pen with a wide functionality (and accompanying software), devices of the Galaxy Note series do not practically find competitors among smartphones, so we will install a higher price on them, lower on the other side of the road. Flagship Galaxy S (in times — S8 and S8+). Galaxy Note 8 is a truly mobile device that you can afford. First of all, it is impossible to say that 70 thousand rubles are bought for uncompromising ability: not all characteristics of the Korean tablet phone are the best. As a minimum, autonomy is worth it, which is far from a record here. Well, the sound dynamics (because one, although some of the top competitors use a stereo pair) do not match, for example, we will recently present Huawei Mate 10. And the axis for the quality of the Galaxy Note 8 photo camera is one of the shortest mobile devices on the market. Bagaty also suits the design - smooth licking around the glass panels with strongly rounded sides fell to the relish of the great part of the coristuvachi. There are no claims to the brightness of the display, to the widest communication possibilities, to the hardware tightness of the add-on.

Zagalom, Samsung Galaxy Note 8, as the closest relatives of the Galaxy S8 and S8 +, is the first step, if you change it for the sake of it, the shards of the audience are more familiar with the Korean brand, and for some reason I will bring my own idea. You can only add those that the history of the front model of the Note 7 series catching fire with a distant start to the sale did not deprive the chances of thinking about the type “chi go over front version for a new one?" For koristuvachіv, yakі in a right way to require the functionality of an electronic pen, on the phone of the sale of the Galaxy Note 7, it took a very long time, and there were practically no alternatives. And about the security of loyal coristuvachiv, the company once just wentbbled up with casual strength, so the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is definitely one of the most secure smartphones to the market.

Like before, a decent level of productivity, now with additional memory

At the same time, the Galaxy S8 may have a higher low level of productivity: "In tests, the same program could not get the Galaxy S8 to the edge. New smartphone ensure more low productivity for all supplements, moreover, two or three years ahead. Well, you won’t become a “big mess” like a memory. Smartphone equipped with 4 GB LPDDR4 memory.

In Galaxy Note 8, we took away too much SoC, but all the same, look at the performance level

Samsung again chose two hardware versions. While in the USA and other markets in Asia, the smartphone is equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 835, in Europe and Russia - Exynos 8895, the same chip that Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 + smartphones have - there are no details. In this rank, the SoC warehouse has two Cortex A53 cores and Exynos M2 cores at frequencies up to 1.7 GHz and up to 2.3 GHz. Notably GPU Mali-G71 MP20 at 576 MHz. The SoC is being built by Samsung on the 10nm LPE process.

Samsung Galaxy Note 8 provides more low-level productivity, such as for everyday scenarios to navigate the world (3DMark Slingshot)

Ale Samsung virishila change the memory. Similar to the Galaxy S8, with an LPDDR4 RAM of 4 to 6 GB, which theoretically can increase productivity. In fact, the growth rate should be from 1 to 3%, so here you can talk about the deaths of death, lower about the growth. Vtіm є vinyatki, yakі explain dosit smoothly. Galaxy Note 8 scored 32,000 points in 3DMark Ice Storm Unlimited, outperforming Galaxy S8 by 11%. However, Slingshot and Slingshot Extreme were 11% higher in their turn. Judging by the results of Geekbench 4.1, the estimated productivity appeared to be about 12% less. Ale, in the GFXBench Manhattan Offscreen and T-Rex Offscreen tests, we took 64 and 121 fps, which is approximately rіven Galaxy S8.

Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Corytests Play as UFS Flash Memory in Everyday Scenarios (PCMark)

For all intents and purposes, the Galaxy Note 8 is one of the smartest smartphones on the market. The performance of Exynos 8895 can be compared with Kirin 960 and Snapdragon 835, although three SoCs can hardly see a leader, all of them occupy the first month with alternate success. So, it is unlikely that the productivity of a Samsung smartphone is not vistachatime in the nearest future. Greater obsyag memory tezh rob your contribution.

Regardless of the great body, Samsung could not solve one more problem, which would be significant in practice. Exynos 8895 in the Galaxy Note 8 smartphone also includes throttling for high ambitions. The biggest drop is expected to be close to 20%, especially for GPU performance. Vtіm, under the usual pretensions, throttling is unlikely to show itself, which is true for the Galaxy S8.

May all possible interfaces

The interface has been moved from Galaxy S8 to May without changes. The LTE modem works with a maximum speed of 1 Gb/s for downloading and 150 Mb/s for uploading, dartless module Design MU-MIMO (802.11ac) also available high rіven I will pass the building for an hour of work at WLAN. Bluetooth 4.2 has been added for small devices, and the connection with accessories has been transferred to Bluetooth 4.2 - the new version 5 is not yet activated through the presence of drivers, although it is supported by the hardware. Obviously, NFC and MST could not do without it. The rest is credited for robots in pairs with Samsung Pay.

If you are looking forward to cable storage, then the USB Type C port supports the USB 3.1 Gen 1 standard. yak i u vipadku Galaxy S8. According to the Androbench test, the read speed was 403 MB / s, the write speed was 63 MB / s, PCMark scored 636 and 117 MB / s.

If 64 GB is not enough, you can use the microSD card slot. And for the expansion of memory, you have to pay for a Dual SIM support, another SIM card wins one slot from a microSD card.

The USB Type C port of the Galaxy Note 8 smartphone is temple-safe pass through zavdyaki support USB 3.1 Gen 1, as well as swidkisny internal memory UFS 2.1

Galaxy Note 8 has all primary sensors. The smartphone determines the position of the space, that quickened, the callous brightness and the exact position of the wind satellite systems. A heart rate sensor and a fingerprint scanner are installed behind. If you don’t want to use a password to unlock your smartphone, then you can use the ID recognition technology. Її you can quickly improve, in our tests it worked out well - the pardons were not so rich. Vtim, varto designate what qiu system zahistu umiltsy already far away to fool, the best option is still to get a thumbs up, or the good old PIN. Є scanner of the circular shell of the eye, which secures the high rіven zakhistu, ale vin anew pratsyuvav nenadіyno.

In our tests, we did not encounter problems with telephony or data transmission. There were no unexpected WLAN connections, no strange transitions from LTE to UMTS or GSM. Speakers and microphones are safe garna yakist when recording that movie, the system for suppressing loud noise worked quite well in our tests. Another speaker, installed on the lower frame of the Galaxy Note 8, is no longer needed for the speaker function. Through the second day of the greater part of the middle ones low frequencies wine is not suitable for listening to music.
