    Battery Question

    This may be a dumb question but....

    S8 / S8+ First Impressions Thread

    I love it but it seems to go dark quickly and I have to really press on home button to get display back. I am temporarily using plastic screen cover the phone came with and have disabled screen always on. Any other things or settings I should check? Thanks.

    Should switch from iPhone?
