My S8 got delivered.

Got my S8 yesterday and am playing with it non stop. Black looks stunning but I chose Orchid Grey because it shows less fingerprints on the back. Even that is a great color. Happy to answer any questions.

Congrats. I'm getting the orchid grey as well. When did you order it?

Do you have a case? If so, how does it feel in hand while using the case? And does it play well with the screen?

1st of April. It's a beautiful color with different shades under different lighting conditions.

Yes- have the case that has the suede finish. That feels great but I took it off after a couple of hours because of two reasons- makes the fingerprint sensor harder to use and the feel of a naked S8 is so much better in your hands!

Where did you order from?

What are your thought on the placement of the fps?

Ordered it from Samsung directly. Do not like the placement on the fingerprint sensor- hard to reach and the small size doesn't make it any more convenient. Maybe a few more days will make me get used to it. Face unlock makes things a bit easier but isn't as consisten and depends on lighting conditions.

Nice! Do you have the Snap Dragon processor or Exynos? Will be curious to hear your experience with battery life.

Here it is all set up. Apologies for the shameless Insta plug.

Exynos. Still too early to tell on battery life. Have spent yesterday and today setting it up, downloading apps, syncing music and pictures and everything else. Can hopefully give you a better indication in the next couple of days.

Nice. Just gave you a like. Enjoy

Battery life will of big interest to me as well. Especially after you have played with it for a few days and then settle into a more typical routine. I am told Samsung has some "changes" you can make manually (max battery life/Normal/etc.) that you can play with as well. Have fun!

 

[ajaffarali]

I just see the usual Power Saving modes "Off, Mid and Max" and the optimize apps settings in battery CP. Not sure if there is another place j should be looking at.

Samsung let's you pick which model you want if you order it through them?

Man I jealous right now.

I'm in Dubai and you only get the Exynos here.

Did you order a screen protector? If so how is it with the screen's curved edges?

 

[gpatrick15]

Ah ok. Have you tried Bixby in it's limited capacity yet?

Yes, I would like to know this as well.
