Qué necesitas
-
-
Samsung parece haber hecho hasta lo imposible para darnos la misma experiencia de teléfono inteligente sin importar tu preferencia de tamaño de pantalla y las especificaciones del Galaxy S8 lo confirman. ¿Algo de esto les parece familiar?
-
Pantalla Super AMOLED de 5.8 pulgadas de doble borde con 2960 x 1440 de resolución (570 ppi)
-
Procesador Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 o Samsung Exynos 8895, con 4 GB RAM.
-
Cámara trasera de 12 megapixeles con doble foco automático de pixel y captura de video de 4K: cámara selfie de 8 megapixeles.
-
Almacenamiento interno de 64 GB, expandible a través de tarjeta MicroSD (hasta 256 GB adicionales)
-
Clasificación IP68 resistencia al agua
-
Android 7.0 Nougat
-
-
-
Aparte de las dimensiones, el S8 es un clon idéntico del S8+. Las especificaciones incluyen:
-
Rejilla de altavoz y orificio para micrófono
-
Puerta de carga USB-C y conector de auricular (Apple: 0 Samsung: 1)
-
Lector de pulso/ensamblaje de flash
-
Cámara trasera
-
Lector de huella digital
-
El S8 es una evolución segura del S7 Edge—proporciones, cámara y localización de paquete de sensor y tamaño están a la par.
-
-
-
El Galaxy luce nuevamente el diseño vidrio en vidrio, haciendo que nuestras vidas sean difíciles. Calentamos el panel y aplicamos unas cuantas púas de palanca.
-
Una vez que abrimos el borde, el iSclack nos ayuda a romper el resto del adhesivo (que vamos a tener que reemplazar a volver a ensamblar el dispositivo —gruñido).
-
Y ya entramos al ... ¿S8? Este tipo se ve casi idéntico.
-
-
-
El sensor de huella digital se alberga en la caja trasera, ubicado en un lugar algo controversial. Usar esa cosa (con tu mano derecha) requiere estirar ciegamente y excluir la cámara.
-
La buena noticies es que este sensor es modular y puede sacarse de su adhesivo para reemplazarse. Lo único que hace falta es un poco de calor y un empujón.
-
-
-
-
Como su hermano S8+, el S8 emplea hardware multitarea. El sistema de antena/altavoz y el ensamblaje de antena NFC y bobina de carga funcionan como el medio cuadro al mismo tiempo.
-
Nos estamos quedado sin cosas para decir aquí—el resto del teléfono se ve bastante como el S8+ también, hasta el pequeño vibrador panqueque. Es como si alguien hubiera dejado el S8+ en su bolsillo y salió del lavadora un poco más encogido, pero sin recibir daños.
-
-
-
Se podría pensar que luego del record poco estelar de baterías, Samsung incluiría un sistema rápido de eyección para estos paquetes. Y sin embargo, esta celda está firmemente adherida ( y realmente firme).
-
Y no es que sea especialmente difícil tener una batería extraíble—se hace en todo el mundo de teléfonos.
-
La batería de marca Samsung tiene una capacidad de 11.55 Wh—en comparación a la de Google Pixel de 10.66 Wh, pero empequeñeciendo la batería (ligeramente más pequeña) del iPhone 7 con 7.45 Wh.
-
-
-
El conector de placa E/S está debajo de la placa madre es estos últimos modelos de Galaxy. ¿Por qué no hacer las cosas más difíciles?
-
La placa madre sale relativamente fácil, dándonos una mirada al tubo termosifón bifásico estándar de Samsung.
-
La configuración de placa hija de E/S coincide con de S8+ hasta el conector de auricular modular.
-
-
-
Nos fijamos en los chips en el S8 para ver si es realmente un mellizo más pequeño del S8+.
-
Samsung K3UH5H50MM-NGCJ 4 GB LPDDR4 RAM dispuesto sobre MSM8998 Snapdragon 835
-
Toshiba THGBF7G9L4LBATR 64 GB UFS (NAND flash + controlador)
-
Qualcomm Aqstic WCD9341 audio codec
-
Skyworks 78160-11
-
Avago AFEM-9066
-
Controlador NXP 80T71 NFC
-
PMIC Interfaz Silicon Mitus SM5720
-
-
-
Esto es todo en relación al S8 vanilla. Si no lo has adivinado, tenemos un análisis más detallado del S8+, fíjate si no lo has hecho todavía.
-
Dicho esto, demos al Galaxy S8 su calificación de reparabilidad.
-
- Muchos componentes son modulares y pueden ser reemplazados independientemente.
- La batería puede reemplazarse, pero el adhesivo resistente y el panel trasero pegado lo hacen innecesariamente difícil.
- El vidrio pegado en la parte frontal y la trasera conlleva un riesgo más grande de ruptura y hace que las reparaciones sean difíciles de comenzar.
- Debido a la pantalla curvada, el reemplazo del vidrio frontal sin destruir la pantalla es extremadamente difícil.

With the release of the Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8+, Samsung has begun building new "Wizard Lounges" at which Samsung officials can personally tell you "your phone is broken, buy a new one!"
+1 for the best review I have seen on this so far.
Very nice Photography!
I would like to know how heavy the battery is compared with the S7 battery and how big (volume) it is
From memory, (did a teardown just recently,) the S8 Battery is significantly heavier than an S7 battery. It is quite a bit thinner however, so the added weight must be caused by the internals. I'm no expert on battery composition but I know for sure that S8 batteries are much more durable from a repairers point-of-view.
Am I right in observing that the charging port flex module no longer has button ribbons that fold around the mid-frame and underneath the glass?
If so... techs everywhere are rejoicing right now.
Correct! That alone makes for a significantly more repairable phone. Once you get an S8-series phone open, removing the daughterboard/charging port is totally straightforward.
So, I know a lot of you are going to be !#^&@@, but I got my S8 in the mail yesterday. I cracked the back glass about 45mins ago. Do any of you have any idea how much it is going to cost to fix it?
Wow. Well, heres what I'd say. Your waterproofing is gone. Repairing it yourself is a no go because a replacement back is $100 and I could only find one seller on eBay. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/100-OEM-Origin...
Best send it to Samsung, keeping your waterproofing and warranty.

GG MALL Have already selling the S8 back glass one month before the galaxy s8 release LOL

Also broke the back glass 1st day I had it. Thinking major design flaw, because I haven' t even dropped the phone yet! Can't count the number of times my S7 flew off my lap as I got out of the car without breaking. Don't know exactly when it got broken. Only thing I can think is if I set down the oculus with the phone still in it and the extra weight broke it.
Have had my S8 4 days and front glass broke today. I was sitting in chair at a meeting using the stop watch and the phone slid off my lap onto a carpeted floor. It wasn't a long fall - was very close to the ground when it happened and it hit softly. I can't find replacement glass parts anywhere online and after reading this, it sounds like I should go the insurance route instead.
Amazon offers oem replacement parts, in large selections. I was able to purchase a new back glass & new front glass (w tools and a roll of adhesive included) both for under $45. Roughly $20 per item.
I encounter the same issue less than two weeks of new S8 slipped out my hand with a low drop and craked along the side. Got insurance and replacement was for only $49.99 which I was told there was not a service provided here in las vegas. I was mad as heck !!! and got my refund insurance money back and cancel policy. I checked around town for replacement and was told it would cost over $150.00 for screen replacement which was crazy ridculous. As of today I still using my racked screen . Today I was told that I need a mircophone/speaker fixed and I hate to see the cost for that. These new slim S8, S9 and new cell looks great but easy to break and not worth the price for replacement.
Glass is made of sand. How can that piece of crap without even an optimized OS cost more than an iPhone? lol
Thanks Bogdan for your riveting reply. The glass isn't easy to remove on its own, but it is possible. It is much easier once you've gutted the phone, as you can bend and twist the frame ever-so-slightly to loosen the adhesive on the device without compromising the LCD. The phone definitely performs well, but its build quality might be a little bit underwhelming to anyone with an eye for that sort of stuff. For the average consumer, eh, who cares about a bit of lag?
Had phone for a couple weeks. Never dropped and take great care of it. Already has a crack on the back around the center of the screen. Maybe from bumping into my keys that might have been in my pocket. How did Samsung think this would fly? Leaving on my desk untouched till I get a super case for this thing. Very frustrating.
i feel like shame on you for having a full glass phone and not having some kind of case from the get :( but the main reason that they make the rear panel glass is to enable easy wireless charging. A metal backing would not be able to freely wireless charge.
is there any heat pipe ..... is it more effective than previous models ... specially on VR
Yep the heatpipe is still around, you can see it in the second photo on step 7 under the motherboard, looked about the same as the S7 pipe to our eyes.
Funny to see all these (obviously non LG) users complain about the "difficulties" of using a rear-panel-located button. Here's a simple trick that might make you feel stupid: step 1) with your right hand holding the phone, place your index finger on the rear edge of the phone (the left side if the screen is facing your--the side the fingerprint reader is closest to); step 2) slide your finger until you feel the fingerprint sensor. VOILA!! No need to smudge up your camera.
The curved screen really has no advantage, and actually catches reflections much worse.
I had this phone for 2 days and it slid off of every surface I placed it on, unless the surface was perfectly flat . This is a defect in the design. It is too slippery to use without a case. Now I have a cracked back case and have probably lost wayerproofing. I am going to complain to Samsung.
Hey Ralph!
I have noticed some S8 handsets do actually have concave rear panels. It is very very slight, barely noticeable to the naked eye. The only way I've tested it is with a small ball bearing. The bearing would always roll directly to the center of the rear panel. Because of this, the phone sometimes builds up an air cushion, making it slide like an air-hockey puck. A case for these phones is an absolute must! They are 95% made up of extremely fragile glass, probably intentionally. If Samsung refuses warranty, and offers service, do your best to decline, and check out a local third party repair store. Rather give local business a chance over Samsung!
Hola!, tengo un S8+ modelo G955F, se daño el integrado Qualcomm WTR5975 RF Transceiver, quiero saber donde lo puedo conseguir?
I have dropped my device 2 times with basic Verizon case that came with it and worthless screen protector. Sounds like I got lucky no cracks. I ended up putting qmadix liquid screen protector $39 since regular tempered glass wouldn't adhere. I like the surface the qmadix has made 9H Sapphire hard seams last 2 weeks no scratches,less smudges, easy to apply no bubbles and antimicrobial!!!
Is it possible to replace the WiFi module? My phone is 3 months old and the WiFi will not turn on. Took it to Samsung Experience Store to have it flashed and it came back from them as "rooted" and now Samsung won't touch it
this taredown doesn't show the front facing camera module or the iris scanner.
Can I use s8 battery to replace s6 or s7 battery?
my phone entered in a safe mode and after the maintenance man remove the safe mode but after opened the phone for removing safe mode I can not charge my phone and the message is the charging will stop now because your phone is cold and will resume charging after getting warm my phone : Samsung S8+
Can I change the frame alone without having to change the display with it? I ask because i just dropped it and even though it has a case the frame is scratched and i would like to change it but i can’t find a frame without the glass.
Anyone try adding a magnet plate for the magnetic carmounts under the back glass? Would it fit?
Is there enough room to add a magnetic plate under the back glass in order to use it with a magnet car mount?
I know it would interfere with wireless charging, just interested in know if one would fit under there.
Thanks!
I have my s8 phone and today it slid off and the front glass has smashed (Touch screen) and i wanna know how much it costs me and which is the best store to do that
Samething happened to me a few weeks of purchasing new S8 last year. I was told over $150.00 for replacement screen which is crazy. Today trouble shooting told me my speaker not working and I cannot imagine the cost. New design cells is easily to break and costly . After this contract done or if I decide to pay off ahead of time I’m going back to an older cell and doing prepay no contract or track phone. done with all cell provider which a big ripoff and lies.
I manage to replace a few of the galaxy s8 screen while removing only 3 screw !! I made a small video about it. it’s not perfect but you should save at least half the time while replacing it!!!!
