Samsung is considered a godfather in the smartphone industry and has introduced many memorable devices over the years. However, Samsung has never built the similar cultural devices that Apple has built over the years. When we think of buying an Android smartphone, the first name that comes to mind is Samsung.
Samsung never compromises its quality and uniqueness in display and camera. The brand has traveled a lot to get where it presently is. During the journey, Samsung has hard times too and that is what we are going to talk about. We will explore some of the best and worst Samsung smartphones of all time.
Best Samsung Smartphones Of All Time
Below are some of the best smartphones Samsung introduced to the public.
Samsung Galaxy S II
The Samsung Galaxy S II was launched in 2011 and was a blockbuster series in the Galaxy S. It was a main threat to the iPhone series at that time. The Samsung Galaxy S II was integrated with a 1.2GHz dual-core Exynos processor and a Super AMOLED Plus display.
The 8MP main camera allowed players to shoot full HD video.
Samsung Galaxy Nexus
The Samsung Galaxy Nexus comes with a Super AMOLED display and was the first one to offer a 720p HD screen. The device was introduced as a collaboration with Google and that has been now written in the smartphone history.
Samsung Galaxy Note
Samsung introduced its Galaxy Note model with the game-changing S-Pen. The Samsung Galaxy Note was mainly designed for increasing productivity and efficiency. The big display and the pressure-sensitive stylus made the device a unique entrant to the smartphone industry at that time.
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 was released in 2023. It was designed to succeed its previous model Z Flip 4. Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 was integrated with a speedy Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor and 8GB of RAM, which enhanced the performance of the device. The foldable Dynamic AMOLED display with a refresh rate of 120Hz made it unique.
Worst Samsung Smartphones Of All Time
Samsung Galaxy Note 7
The Galaxy Note 7 was one of the worst smartphones that Samsung released yet. The device has the capability to combust itself. Due to its combustive nature, it was banned from being taken on flights. The smartphone comes with an outstanding display, build quality, excellent camera, and long-lasting battery. However, it might explode from your pocket.
Samsung Galaxy S4
The Galaxy S4 was exactly similar to its predecessor Galaxy S3. The only difference is in the colors. The device was built using plastic which also comes with an average camera quality and a disappointing battery life. The device is renowned for its various bloatware issues.
Samsung Galaxy S6
The Galaxy S6 was built using metal and glass, increasing its price unjustifiably. But Samsung reduces the price because of reduced sales. The Samsung Galaxy S6 users are not able to expand their phone storage because the device has no Micro SD card slot. The battery life was also less when compared to the previous S5 model. However, the device has certain features like it supports wireless charging and has a vibrant HD AMOLED display.
Samsung Wave S8500
The Wave S8500 comes with Samsung’s bada OS and it was the main reason for the failure of the device. The device is strong and has a Super AMOLED display that increased its popularity. While the Apple App Store contains more than 200,000 apps, the Samsung Wave S8500 has less than 1000 apps.
Final Thoughts
It was very hard to find the best and worst Samsung smartphone of all time. Even though the worst Samsung devices lack some features, they have a lot of additional features. Samsung is now mainly working with AI to pack their devices with unique features.
