A Forbes news article this morning regarding the pricing

[Storm24]

It's the width I want. 6p is nice, LG v20 is nice too, width wise

Yeah, I want some width with my length too. In my phone. That pic does not give me the warm fuzzys about the width... I guess we will see...

Dimensions... see below... I have a Nexus 6P... basically a BIG phone, and I have been using that for over a year now.... I'm ok with dimensions.

If these dimensions are true, the S+ is just a tad bit wider than the Note 7 and a tad bit taller than the iPhone 7 plus which I definitely can deal with. The big question is the price. If it's not right than I'll hold off until the Note 8 comes out.

We'll find out tomorrow.

Sounds like the price may also be a little wider.

S8 could stay what it was. Tarrifs and such affect some regions.

Huawei will likely offer attractive specs/price along with others.

Apple iPhone "Pro" or "X" 10th Anniversary Edition US$999 ?

It doesn't make sense to jack up the price $100 over the Note 7 when the Note 7 has the Spen technology with it. If the price is that high I might checkout the G6 and buy a Tabs3 to get my spen fix. I'm sorry $100 more than the note 7 and no spen is just asking for too much.

If this is the case then I'll have a hard time not ordering lol...well also depends if/what down payment is required. I have great credit through T-Mobile but I believe with the top end phones there's usually a down payment involved

According to the Verge, Verizon, AT&T & T-Mobile have already announced pricing:

http://www.theverge.com/circuitbrea...s8-price-announced-verizon-att-sprint-tmobile

$750 for S8 ($720 at Verizon), $850 for S8+ ($840 at Verizon). Best Buy appears to be offering $100 off. Also, it looks like all of them are bundling a Gear VR, with some carriers providing other options.

I took a loss with the note 7. No way will I buy this phone for that price. They need to throw a really nice incentive to people who were affected from the note 7 imo. Or they won't be getting any more of my business.

I'm no Samsung fan, but I was actually surprised that the S8+ is starting at $850. I thought it would be higher, no matter what the i7+ is going for.

 

[brau0303]

I am kind of in the same camp as some of the other posters, Note fan (I got the GS7E liket it but went back to my Note Edge because i missed the s-pen) I am curious if the next version of the Note will have the same sized screen as the S8+?

Cheers,

I had a note 7, and love it no problems. When they issued recall, I went back to att, was refunded every penny I paid for phone and accessories.
Sorry you took a loss.

 

[Zendroid1]

I predict $850.

Damn I'm good.

 

[amyf27]

I'm not going for it. Tmpbile wants $130 down for the S8 Plus. I didn't pay a dime down for the S7Edge and the Note 7 was maybe half that, around $79. I'll wait for the new Note 8 Nd hold onto this s7edge to jump then. Also have a V20 heading my way

 

[alt075]

Yes they paid me back for phone. Problem was I had financed it and my old one. In order to get the note 7 I had to trade old one in. It was more than half paid off. So when I had to turn note 7 in I had to buy a new phone. Which I didn't like any of the others. I couldn't get the old one and go back to the price I had left to pay on the old phone. So I took a loss. Was not happy about that.

Well this was supposed to quote another person. hmmm I did it wrong.

This is exactly where I'm at. $130 down is enough to keep my V20 or look elsewhere.

Oh. I see. I was lucky I didn't trade my old phone in. I paid full price. So I went to my old one, which works fine. But I want a new one.

Sorry you lost.

 

[illdini]

Is a free Gear VR & controller enough of an incentive? Even though it's for all pre-orders.

 

[Mike-Mike]

Same here, I got the V20 on the $360 one day deal, and I was planning on keeping it as a backup and getting the S8+.

But I can't seem me paying that much up front for the S8+ when I would probably switch to the Note 8 anyhow

Got my V20 on a $460 sale, still less than it's retail. That'll probably be my.main phone since I love the bigger screens
