The Search for Killer Features: A Deep Dive into Android Devices

In 2017, the question on everyone's mind was: which killer feature is going to move the needle for manufacturers and set them apart from their competitors? The answer to this question can be found in various Android devices that were released that year. One such device that stands out is the Samsung Galaxy S8. For many of us, it was the screen that made this phone truly special. Samsung finally found a use for its curved displays by using them almost entirely wrap around the front of the phone. This design choice not only makes the phone look gorgeous but also enhances the overall consumer experience. With its beautiful display, the Galaxy S8 is ideal for consuming media, whether it's watching videos, browsing through images, or simply enjoying a good game.

While some may argue that another feature could be considered the "killer" one, many would agree that the screen is undoubtedly the standout feature of the Galaxy S8. But what about other devices? Let's take a closer look at the Google Pixel and its killer feature. Some might say it's all about the software, thanks to the full integration of Google Assistant on any modern smartphone running Android 7. However, this feature comes with a caveat: the screen must be turned on or the device must be plugged in just to activate the assistant. Although this may seem minor, Google made a big deal out of this feature and even included a show-stopping camera that boasts a DxO mark mobile score of 89. The camera's capabilities are undeniable, but whether the average user can notice the difference is up for debate.

Another device worth mentioning is the LG G6, which has gained widespread acclaim for its camera capabilities. While it may not be as flashy as some other devices, the LG G6's wide-angle lens on a secondary camera is truly impressive. Whether you're a backpacker who loves snapping panoramas or someone with a large group of friends who often get lost in photos, this feature is surprisingly handy. It might not be the most attention-grabbing aspect of the device, but it's certainly something that sets it apart from other smartphones.

The Sony Xperia XZ Premium is another device that showcases an impressive feature that might just make it stand out from the competition: slow-motion recording. This feature can't be seen from the outside, but when you watch the footage captured on this device, you'll know why it's considered a highlight of the phone. With 960 frames per second, the XZ Premium produces truly breathtaking footage that puts even professional-grade DSLRs to shame.

Finally, let's discuss the Samsung Galaxy Note series and its killer feature: the S Pen. According to an article written by Adam Snicky over Tanoy Desert Accom, this pen is what sets the Galaxy Note apart from other smartphones. However, we don't entirely agree. While we acknowledge that the S Pen can be a useful tool for note-taking and drawing, we're not convinced that it's something that people use extensively in their daily lives. We invite our readers to prove us wrong by sharing videos of them using their S Pens in practical, functional ways on Twitter.

In conclusion, each device mentioned above has its own unique features that set it apart from others. Whether it's the stunning screen of the Galaxy S8, the impressive camera capabilities of the LG G6, or the jaw-dropping slow-motion recording of the XZ Premium, there's no denying that these devices have some truly remarkable features. The debate about which feature is the "killer" one will continue to rage on, but one thing is certain: Android devices are always pushing the boundaries of innovation and design.
