Fresh leakage confirmed the design and characteristics of the Samsung Galaxy S8 Active. Samsung Galaxy S8 Active - SAMSUNG S8 Protected Specifications

About exit Samsung Galaxy S8 Active is still not officially announced, but we almost all know about it. The newest participant of the Samsung Active smartphones line will receive most of the possibilities of Galaxy S8, but it will be closed in a particularly durable building. The famous tester Evan Blass (@Evleaks) has published the official Render of Galaxy S8 Active.

The picture does not show us much of what we have not yet knew, but we can highlight a few small details. The smartphone will have a protruding frame for best protection Display and metal bumpers on all four corners, which seem to have torx screws. It is possible that this indicates that bumpers will be replaceable, but again, it can only be done for a cosmetic effect. But if these bumpers are really removable, it can open a completely new market accessories. It will be a great way to distinguish S8 Active from its glass fellows.

As for the characteristics, Galaxy S8 Active (probably exclusive AT & T) will have a flat screen Super AMOLED with Gorilla Glass 5 size 5.8 "(2960 × 1440) and aspect ratio of 18.5: 9, Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor, 4 GB random access memory64 GB internal memoryexpandable using microSD cards, a 12 megapixel main chamber + 8-megapixel front, 4000 mAh battery and fast wireless charging. Galaxy S8 Active will support the MIL-STD-810G and IP-68 standard with moisture protection and dust. Intellectual assistant BIXBY. There will also be on board and to call it will be its own special button. Smartphone will be available in 2 colors: Meteor Grey and Titanium Gold.

Some sites quote the release date - August 1, 2017, based on lists of goods to protect the screen from Amazon, but this is obviously not a very reliable source. Regardless of whether it will be true, we know exactly that I will soon see the Galaxy S8 Active. In the end, the render is in July 21 on the screen, it indicates the date of the potential release, which was postponed.

This value is set by FCC, and CTIA controls the Mobile Device Compliance with this standard.	0.8 W / kg (Watt per kilogram)

Together with the Samsung Galaxy S8 Active, no longer have to worry for the possible drops of a smartphone on the floor or into water - the flagship body is dressed in the "armor", the degree of security of which meets the requirements of the MIL-STD-810G military standard.

Burnt of productivity

Translated to a more understandable language, we can discuss that mobile Device It is not afraid of dust, dirt, drops from a half-meter height and immersion under water to a depth of about 1.5 m for half an hour. With all this in the case of the "Armor", the "filling" of the level Pro is installed, which went to the smartphone from the classic version of Samsung Galaxy S8: the most powerful SNAPDRAGON 835 chip, 4 GB of operational and 64 GB of permanent memory and advanced graphics Adreno 540. With such a high-performance hardware base, the model will not lose its relevance over the next few years.

Methods of authentication

A similar basic meat is a 5.8-inch smartphone display, built on the basis of a superamoled matrix with a resolution of 2960x1440 pixels. However, the differences still have a place to be - because of the protruding sidewalls the screen at the version of ACTIVE lost the bevelled faces. Space over the display occupy numerous sensors, self-camera on 8 megapixel and scanner of the Rainbow Shell Eyes - Special Sensor Determines the owner of the smartphone on its retina. Another way to authenticate the user is scanning fingerprint. That's just a place for a dactyloscopic sensor, it is impossible to be called successful - the finger constantly strives to touch the main chamber located nearby.

Maximum equipment

If you have been talking on the camera's camera, it should be noted that it is deservedly considered one of the most advanced. The sensor with a resolution of 12 megapixel and the maximum lines F / 1.7 takes the first lines in all sorts of ratings, tests and shows a very worthy result in real exploitation. An optical stabilization system is available to mobile photographers, a chain autofocus and a flexible setting of photo and video recording parameters. From other useful features of the Samsung Galaxy S8 Active, a separate line needs to highlight support for fast and wireless charging technologies, as well as Bixby's voice assistant, which is designed to simplify the user's interaction with the smartphone.

Should not think that smartphone Galaxy S8 ACTIVE is much better compared to CO, as it is not. Smartphone should be perceived as the best choice Among the devices with high strength, while it is not sacrificed. Performance, screen, camera and other advantages. Significantly increased duration autonomous workBut for the sake of strength it was necessary to part with the design elements that S8 was attractive.

Pluses Galaxy S8 Active

• Full Galaxy S8.
• High battery life
• Housing of increased strength
• Shockproof screen
• Flat screen someone like more curved

Cons Galaxy S8 Active

• Too big and heavy for many
• Nothing but the case does not differ
• More expensive model
• The screen is scratched

What did you like in Galaxy S8 Active

The main advantage of Galaxy S8 Active is that, as its basis, this is all the same beautiful smartphone S8. Each specification, each function and each component remained the same. This means that you will get high performance, a wide range of software features and one of the best cameras. The housing is protected from water and dust, while the connector did not become less. In its place there remained a traditional headphone connector 3.5 mm and without a plug. You also get a magnificent SUPER AMOLED screen with excellent brightness, which is easy to watch even in the sun.

Also remained wireless recharging, which is sometimes absent in such cases due to the thick body, which does not pass the signal. Such a set of characteristics is not available to other smartphones with increased strength.

One characteristic has changed markedly, but for the better. The battery capacity has grown to 4000 mAh instead of 3000 mAh in S8 and 3500 mAh. Naturally, the duration of autonomous work has grown. Most often by the end of the day, the charge remains at 20% -30%.

More developers want to highlight this smartphone using a shock-resistant screen. Presumably, you can drop it from a height of one and a half meters to a solid surface and the screen will remain integer.

What did not like in Samsung Galaxy S8 Active

With everyday work with a smartphone, large complaints it does not cause. The main disadvantage is the size. Smartphone is wider, longer, thicker and harder than the standard version, and much. It is 10 g heavier even compared to, in size it is between. This is a lot, especially with the fact that the size of the screen is like standard S8.

Due to the large size with a smartphone, it is harder to work, it is inconvenient to keep it in hand, even if you compare with slippery S8. Appearance He is not so beautiful, like an elegant standard version.

There is another aspect, not so noticeable. The shockproof screen became so at the expense of a special film on top of Gorilla Glass glass 5. As in the Moto Z2 Smartphone, this coating is easily scratched. Thus, scratches remain not on the glass itself, but on the plastic from above, but it's still scratch.

In the US, there is a four of large operators mobile communications And S8 Active is sold only at AT & T. This means the presence of a dozen usually unnecessary preset applicationsAlthough they can be disabled or deleted. Also amended operating system. Fortunately, the smartphone should appear in other operators.

The cost of the device is $ 849, which is $ 100 more expensive compared to standard S8 and as much as S8 +. it big difference For a smartphone that does not differ in terms of characteristics and functionality.

Should I buy Galaxy S8 Active?

Advanced users who always seek to get a device with a maximum battery may want to get flagship smartphone Like S8 with a large battery capacity of 4000 mAh. However, you first should think about what made such an attractive standard S8, namely its design.

Active model is larger and harder, there are no curved edges of the screen that are distinctive feature S8. On the other hand, for someone, this is the opposite will become a dignity, but such a certain one cannot say about gravity. Because of its thickness, S8 Active does not look and does not feel like the flagship Galaxy S8, namely, for this feeling most and pay.

Thus, wishing to buy S8 can hardly recommend S8 ACTIVE only due to a larger battery. One this plus cannot be outweigh the size, weight, shape and price. This smartphone can only be recommended to those who need to work or because of the lifestyle.
