Be Honest! As Much As You Love Your S8/S8+...

Odd. My battery life has been stellar.

I was thinking the same thing... but usage may vary...LOL

Sounds like you may have a rogue app or something.

i hope not. i have all the same apps i normally use. nothing extra

I thought my 8+ would help me pick up the ladies, but nope. Perhaps since I'm married that is for the better.

Sometimes and app can get wonky. Can you screen shot the battery page and post it? Example below.

Also you might want clear cache.

Here is how you clear cache, it will not erase anything or reset your device if you follow the direction exactly.

How to Enter Galaxy S8 and S8+ in Recovery Mode

It doesn't bother me at all. I love watching videos and playing games on my S8+. I grew accustomed to the ratio as soon as I started playing around with the phone. The S7E seems too small now after having had this phone for 2 weeks.

 

[felloffthetruck]

I like it and it will hold me over until the Note 8 hits. I believe the Note 8 will be everything the S8 was suppose to be.

Love the S8+ the closest thing to my much missed Note 7 I could get.

wow... apple music is a resource hog.

 

[NeoTreo]

To me, it's just a tall S7 with edges.
Something I'm familiar with and makes the S8+ easier to keep.

Like the battery a lot. Yesterday I work up at 4:30 am 100%. I didn't charge it until 8 pm and it was at 20%.

After owning it a bit, would you have preferred if they had kept the 16.9 ratio? I returned mine, i personally felt it cost too much for what it was, but i see so much praise for the device i wonder if any of y'all felt same way AT FIRST and are you now, "so accustomed to it, to the point where, you wouldn't have it any other way?"

Just curious....thinking maybe i just didn't keep it long enuf to adjust to it, but for the 3 days i had it every time i saw that tall stringy beany phone staring up at me i was like, "eeeesh, girl, you look anorexic"... :-* lol

I didn't like the aspect ratio either. Though it was easier to type one handed, the phone just felt too long and videos don't look great.

I was using v20 after returning my note7. I really like. My v20 but trieds8+ pre-ordered it. I have S8 plus and love it. Same height as v20 but being more narrow the S8 plus fits my hand perfectly.

I had a 7edge on jump and turned itnim for the 8plus after having the 8plus a day. Haven't looked back. Also before the 8 Plus I also had the v20. That was my daily phone bluntly the 8plus came along. Like it so much I sold the v20

sooooo you say "didn't" not "don't...Does that mean you returned it? Was that one of the reasons?

Coming from a note and 6+ I missed the wider screen at first (almost waited for the Note 8 instead), but after a few days much prefer the thinner phone for regular use and in the pocket.

Came from S7 Edge and day and night difference in performance. Best phone I have owned and I owned many, including pixle XL just few months ago. Very very impressed how smooth and fluid the interface is.
