The camera and CPU improvements are too minimal to justify spending another 900$. Waiting for the S10 would be a wiser choice as it's likely that its feature gap with the S8 would be wider while the price will stay about the same.

I would have been ok with the thickness if the bezels were smaller. Phones with large bezels like the iPhone usually make up for it with a slim body for easier handling.
