S8,S9 & S10 is peak Samsung design. The S8 is probably my fav phone ever, it made me switch from iphone to android - the front looked amazing.
@Suaves2101
I'll never forget the first time I saw an ad on TV for the Galaxy S8. The design was such a level up
@xxdarkgeminixx
The Galaxy S3 was the first smartphone that I felt "loyal" to. That phone stuck with me through drops, crashes, blizzards, and just kept trucking. One of the most legendary phones ever.

01:33 I'm a Korean. Fun Fact, Externally, the 'S' may stand for "Super Smart," but originally, it wasn't so grand. The 'S' in Galaxy S stands for the first letter of "SK telecom." In South Korea, there are three major Carrier : KT, LG U+, and SK telecom. When the Galaxy was first released, it came out exclusively with SK telecom (SKT), hence the name Galaxy S. There are also models like Galaxy K (SHW-M130K) and Galaxy U (SHW-M130L). If Galaxy had been released exclusively with Verizon in the United States, it would likely have been named Galaxy V. haha.
@PrataTulur
I'm from Singapore and our version of S2 was a physical rectangular home button with 2 capacitive button. Even the camera was rectangular in shaped.
@ramariomartin8707
28:51 Fun fact, the S9+ was actually the first samsung S phone with multiple rear cameras with a total of 2.
@loyallion6477
Out of all Samsungs I've had it was first S3, then S6 Edge+, Note 10+ and S23 Ultra now. I loved them all!
@kelownatechkid
S9 plus was peak. SD card, waterproof, headphone jack, heartrate sensor, customizable hotkey, buttons on the correct sides, symmetric display without cutouts, dualsim etc. Only things missing are removable battery, FM, and IR blaster I think?
@DisKirra
S10 will always be peak for me. It was the phone with the most, it had all the things the current phones have, like triple cameras, under screen fingerprint scanner etc. still had headphone jack, Micro sd card slot, the heart rate monitor and 1440p screen. Every model after this they slowly removed all these features... I really want a new phone with better cameras, but it's hard to let go of the s10 and lose all those features.
@theharesbreath
The S8 and S9 gen having a physically moving touch screen home button was underrated!
@danielchess6900
Pre ordered the Samsung S24 ultra and been using it almost for a year now, as a construction worker. Went through harsh conditions and materials and I used without a case the whole time. Dropped it alot, asphalt, concrete, hardwood etc no cracks no dents just mirror scratchs probably from keys in pocket over the whole year. Very much enjoyed this phone, didnt even have to fully charge, charged it to 30 or 50% and went from there on a daily.
@Martianpoonunter69
You forgot about the Universal Remote feature on the S5 & S6 phones. It was super clutch and I used to ALL THE TIME!!
@Jorge_Pronto
The S6 model I used to have had an IR transmitter in it, which made it possible to control your TV (the phone could act as any remote). This was such a nice party trick to turn on a random TV on the streets.
@mikezheng33
Honestly what surprises me more than anything is that the s1 had an amoled screen
@gringolatino97
S1-S24 owner here. Big fan of the Active models, S8 Active was peak Galaxy S for me. IT DIDN'T NEED A CASE. It was rugged and beautiful (dark blue color) It was water and dust resistant, plus it had a bigger battery(4000mAh) and a dedicated quick launch button on the side. The weirdest Galaxy S was definitely the first Sprint specific "Galaxy S Epic 4G" front camera, flash on rear, full sliding QWERTY keyboard, and Wi-Max 4G. It was wild at the time!
@itz-Ender
Galaxy S7 was my first experience with Android, never went back to Apple other than an iPad, but eventually went from that to a Galaxy S20+, then the Z Flip 3. Now I'm onto the Galaxy S24 Ultra and they've really come a long way since the S7.
@BrianAnim
I can't believe you went through the s7 without going over it's ip68 rating. It really made that the normal for all phones now. Heck linus took it in the ocean during his review!
@Max_Ivanov_Pro
I miss the days when Samsung phones had that unique design, they were truly one of a kind.
@SAUGOS
8:22 Missed a good opportunity to call it Voice S
