Reviews for the Blackview S8

70% Blackview S8 Review: Galaxy Features Without The Astronomical Price (and Giveaway!)

For the price, you could certainly do worse than the Blackview S8. If you're looking for a solid phone that won't break the bank, this is one to have on your short list.

This display is quite big for a smartphone but frequently used for smartphones.

Large display-sizes allow higher resolutions. So, details like letters are bigger. On the other hand, the power consumption is lower with small screen diagonals and the devices are smaller, more lightweight and cheaper.

Only few smartphones are more lightweight than this.

Blackview:

This brand from the Blackview International Group was created in Hong Kong in 2013. Smartphones are the focus of marketing.

However, there are only few reviews and the market shares are very low (2016).

70.8%: This rating is bad. Most notebooks are better rated. This is not a recommendation for purchase.
