Replaces a Galaxy S5. Bought on Black Friday for 299 CHF.
For the price, it's great. At this price, I'd buy it again right awayPro
- USB-C
- 3.5mm headphone jack
- Facial recognition
- Dual Sim & SD-Card. All three at the same time
- Long battery life. Still 60% in the evening for my use. The S5 with new battery ended up at 7
- Oreo 8 update
- Led for notification (App: Led Blinker Pro)
- Oled screen with permanent time and notification display
- Very smooth navigation
- 5GHz Wifi connection very good
- Fingerprint recognition better placed than on the S and very reliable
Contra
- slightly narrower screen than the Galaxy S5
- no possibility to shoot in 4K (the old S5 had it)
- Fingerprint recognition on the back. Not practical in car on cradle
- Non-replaceable battery
- A design that is nothing special
- Navigation keys on the screen (a matter of habit)

purchased this productRecommended as a business phone.
A good business phone. However, poor camera. A step backwards from the Galaxy S7.
However, the two SIM cards and additional micro SD slot are ingenious.
