Samsung Galaxy S Light Luxury - User Reviews

  • No, I don't have to buy S8+, but Huawei P30 Pro or wait till Mate 30 Pro.

  • But why?

  • Well, that's OK! If you don't want to buy S8, You have to buy S8+

  • it's a cheap version of the s8.

  • Why the f**k is this phone released? Exists S8 and S8+. I don't need S8 Lite.

  • A cheap version of s8 ..doesn't worth it

  • china only hm

  • Its only released for China consumers.

  • Whats the deal with this phone??? Released in May ??? Where the hell is available then ? I cant find him anywhere on Balcan. None of countries, here, sell it.

  • Any chance of a global version?

  • It should be about 400 eventually. Same as A8 2018 that now cost like 320-350 euros.

  • This price 540 bucks reallly sucks, Except Oled display Xiaomi A2 is way better than that with fast update Android One.

  • You got it right. Just like what Qualcomm said about how samsung over price their stuff.

  • Non removalble battery is a problem? 😂. It's 2018...

  • Yes please! With flagship specccss!!

  • It's RESOLUTION. Not Resitution. And it's a midrange. Don't expect anything spectacular

  • good but for nothing, whether consider its non removable battery, screen restitution and ppi just average, upon it the highest price, will ultimately make you think twice before getting it.

  • Just buy an s8. It's literally cheaper than this on Amazon.

  • Because it is not a good phone, S8+ is way better and cheaper as well

  • It was announced and released in may

  • Available on AT&T?

  • It was released in May as well, go to specifications page and you can clearly read this: Announced: 2018, May Status: Available. Released 2018, May

  • it was announced on may not released

  • why is it that samsung always have an issue to their burn screen and a degrade each year of battery life. its like that i am putting my money into the trash bin.

  • Please make a samsung note series in this dimensions. Not easy to carry this screen with s pen please

  • why isn't there a single unboxing/review video of this phone on YouTube even it have been released in May 2018? :(

  • oh not the s series please samsung, at least respect this line, thats like s8 imitation

  • Phones like the Honor 10 have similar or better specs, often have dual camera too and cost 150-200 euros less,... and doesn't even mention any quick charging,.. in a $500+ phone in 2018... so where's the superb in that?!

  • i just can't get it. why would samsung make a mediocre s8 replicate and price it more than the original is priced a this time factory sealed . who whould by it??!!!! i suspect that tech ignorants are the target market for such products.

  • with540ero i will buy oneplus6

  • Really superb. Nice. The only down side is lack of dual camera.... 9 out of 10 !!!!

  • same here

  • I think he meant that he likes when there are dual sim+ dedicated memory card slot

  • I just came to read the comments >D

  • Wow I haven't heard about this phone

  • They would have achieved more success if they used SD 710 on this one. To be a special Samsung with the newest chipset.

  • Same price as S8 but lower specs, great job samsung...

  • Now why's that? Why isn't having multiple options better?

  • It doesn't matter cause the phone is smaller so it's easier if its below the camera like the so it will be weird to reach

  • They're just reusing old S8 parts they have left over

  • I hate (uses SIM 2 slot). I like only dedicated memory card slot

  • left chassis from S8, why Samsung????

  • where do i buy this anyways

  • Expensive but still better than the A8+ 2018 for the same price

  • I wouldn't take the name of the phone too seriously

  • This is a bit of a random release. I don't see what kind of consumer this is for.

  • This is how the galaxy a 2018 should have looked like

  • They had time to relocate the fingerprint sensor, yet they didnt.

  • I'll bye s8+ better then this

  • I think is better buy it not s8 Beaucas they have same hardware and too software and if can spend a little more money is very good buy s9 Samsung is best brand next apple but their prices is little more expesive than the other brands and apples price is so expensive

  • In iran people can buy it mor expensive than s8 :'( :'(

  • what is the point of producing "flagship" every once a year? Even the used and secondhand flagship got a quick price decrease?

  • Different spelling with the same meaning and still unclear pricing logic -,-

  • That is the reason why i love oneplus 5 cause is more cheaper than this i think, and more powerfull than S8 or Note 8...cheers all

  • I don't see the point, S8 is better except for no FM radio: They would've be better to release something useful, like a 16:9 ratio S9 mini.

  • Its not lite version its light. I too hate samsung

  • Hahaha.. guys.. Samsung just sells branded not quality. Compare with others on the same price then Samsung is poor for spec. And with same spec then Samsung much expensive also. it's ridiculous...!

  • samsung is losing it's place on the market

  • A lite version but more expensive? Please explain -,-

  • You can buy Samsung Galaxy S8 4gb ram 64gb (same price)

  • No wonder Samsung is loosing market share in China, so many phones from China that are better and cost less than this......

  • Only for china.. 😣😣

  • Specs are not good for this price. It should be cheaper s8 instead of luxury s.

  • but this phone camers is best then S8

  • This is not a good phone, Samsung should just put the s8 camera into this phone....

  • For now this is a China only phone...... Hope they sell it globally, I am sure there is a market for a flagship looking phone with just good mid range specs, not everybody are gamers, most people just do chatting and

  • So... kinda like A8, only with SD chip and its inside S9 case. Weird but lets see how it does on the market.

  • It is a scam.... some not so tech savvy will thinking it an S8. what a shame

  • Why would anyone get this phone? Worse CPU, worse camera, worse display (no HDR) yet bigger price than the real S8

  • Light luxury haha this crap makes your wallet lighter than ever before.

  • samsung still 1947.. lol

  • I can see that the Snapdragon version of the S8 had SD 835, so comparing it with SD 660 that this phone has...got these results:

  • How much for an OIS in the camera? For the selling price like this why is there not even an EIS or OIS?

  • I can read. my friend. Learn about DeX. then come to talk.

  • Just get the S8/S8+ it's better in every aspect and it has a much more powerful chipset/SoC with the same price or cheaper.

  • the DeX uses Type C. and HDMI to Type C? what are you smoking bro? I have both models of the DeX Pad and the DeX Station. and you're placing the phone inside the dex. the HDMI is a seperate port you're placing a HDMI to HDMI cable. from the DeX (either of them) to the desired monitor. (like. a TV.) here's two images regarding the connectors of the Station and the PAD variants: as you can see here. (a little pixelated though): in the rear you got 2 FULL sized USBs, ethernet, HDMI and Type C. the HDMI and Type C HAS to be filled. Type C to power the station. HDMI to mirror it. and this is the DeX pad. sure it sans the Ethernet entry. but like the station. you got TWO seperate entries. one to power on. and another to channel the display.

  • Company went crazy very long ago. Laggy phones with insane price.

  • The phone usually would use half of it. 6gb ram phone left with 3gb free too approximately. 8gb ram left with 4gb free. Its all the same.

  • If this is supposed to challenge the Nokia 7 plus, its really a no-brainer

  • its costly every person,

  • I would pay not more than 350$.

  • This is specs from gsmarena: "USB2.0, Type-C 1.0 reversible connector" That mean it doesn't support usb-c to hdmi, so no dex. Get an s8 it better every way and probably cheaper.

  • I kind of want this phone. but I don't know. will it support DeX? (for my mom. She really likes the DeX and the concept of DeX.) if not I think I'll get her a standard S8 and that's it.

  • should be repriced at around $350-$400 or nobody will bother buying this phone

  • samsung is making phone with shit spec and high price. they care about money more than costumers. company going crazy!

  • Expensive for a midrange. But i like it though.

  • Downgraded Performance & Feature Of A S8.

  • S8 recycled

  • This is the galaxy s8 (2018) it is the same as the galaxy s8 just rebranded.

  • Lol samsung, cost more then S8 and have lower spec. Big Fail

  • Exclusively for China only for China..

  • Today hence proved Samsung is out of mind Samsung s9 is available same price so who mad gonna buy this shit and s8 even cheaper than this 600+ usd..

  • The price of this phone are cheaper than OnePlus 6. Jeez!!

  • NOKIA X6 will eat this phone.. samsung cant compete with low prices..

  • Ok. i got it. Light for the specs and Luxury for the price!

  • So, what a name ha? I can't understand the idea and strategy behind this phone, specs and pricing. I think the good times are over from samsung.

  • At least the price of this phone will go down to 410usd after 18 months hehehe

  • Really? This crap has same price as S8. You disappointed me Samsung.

  • is this s8 (2018) with downgrade spec but upgrade at price? 😂

  • Too Luxpensive..

  • The price is just stupyd foolish lol ,

  • very sad to have to hear such configuration for a luxury phone

  • Currently S8 itself price got reduced, but the new S Light Luxury launched with same S9 cost. We don't know for what reason it has launched now. Samsung spoiling our expectations.

  • What a weird name! There's nothing luxurious about this phone

  • 540 Euros.. samsung sucks.. should be around 300 - 350 euros..

  • This Phone Sucks I thought the S9+ was the bigger one & S9 is the mini of it, so where from this one called 'Galaxy S Light Luxury' Perhaps they're following Huawei confused phone naming system

  • Nokia 7 plus do better than this
